Montage Ras El Hekma marks the international ultra-luxury brand’s debut in the country and the start of a broader partnership between Modon and Montage, with potential for further collaboration across Modon’s destinations.

Alan J. Fuerstman, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Montage International, said: “Bringing the Montage brand to Egypt with Modon is a truly exciting milestone in our global journey. Ras El Hekma is a remarkable destination, where rich heritage and thoughtful design come together in a way that is redefining luxury along the Mediterranean coast. We are honoured to collaborate with Modon to bring this vision to life and to build on their outstanding reputation for creating vibrant communities and delivering world-class sporting and lifestyle experiences.”
Montage Ras El Hekma forms part of the USD 35 billion Ras El Hekma masterplan, a 170.8 million square metre development transforming Egypt’s Northern Coast into a next-generation city expected to attract investment of USD 110 billion by 2045. The resort and residences will be set within Wadi Yemm, the first of Ras El Hekma’s 17 planned precincts to move into active delivery. As the city’s first fully integrated coastal community, it represents the opening chapter of the broader masterplan vision.
Wadi Yemm will also feature a series of cultural landmarks that will help shape the identity of the wider city, including the Ras El Hekma Lighthouse and an amphitheatre designed to host up to 10,000 guests across an annual programme of cultural and entertainment events.

The destination will include a new international airport integrated with high-speed rail networks, major highways, and marinas, alongside a dedicated cruise terminal.
Spanning 44 kilometres of Mediterranean coastline, Ras El Hekma will deliver a mix of leisure, hospitality and cultural offerings. At its core, the destination will feature a central business and financial district, supported by education, residential and mixed-use districts designed to sustain a vibrant year-round community.
