Dayz North Coast

Dayz North Coast is a village by Mercon Developments in Alamein, on about 5 feddans. The developer units on our list are a studio and one to three-bedroom chalets, all furnished and counting as ready. The lowest price in October 2026 is EGP 15,290,000 for a studio. If you are weighing it as an investment, the numbers below are what should decide it.

Dayz North Coast prices 2026

Developer prices in October 2026, all furnished:

The lowest-priced metre in the village is the three-bedroom chalet, about EGP 282,000, some 84,000 per m² below the two-bedroom. Someone paying 30 million for an 82 m² two-bedroom gets 131 m² and an extra room for 7 million more. The studio has one price across 42 to 53 m², so ask for the 53 m² one if available; its metre is about 76,000 cheaper.

All units are listed as handing over by the end of March 2027, so they count as ready. Before paying, confirm on a visit that your unit has been handed over or will be on that date, and that the furniture is in it.

Availability is thin: one studio, one one-bedroom, two two-bedrooms and one three-bedroom at the update.

Dayz payment plans: how much a year?

Each type has its own plan, and that matters more than anything when you compare:

These sums assume equal instalments. The larger the unit, the larger the down payment but the smaller the yearly instalment: about 5.2 million a year for the three-bedroom against about 6.9 million for the studio, because the studio is paid off in two years and the three-bedroom in five.

With a lot of cash now and a wish for a lower yearly commitment, the three-bedroom. If you don't want to put more than one and a half million in at the start, the studio, but plan for about 573,000 a month for two years.

Studio or one-bedroom chalet?

They are 9,090,000 apart. That buys 23 to 34 more square metres and a separate bedroom. If you will let to couples or small families, a separate bedroom changes the nightly rate. If the unit is for you and you use it two weeks a year, the studio saves a large sum. The studio's term is two years and the chalet's three, so the yearly instalment is about the same for both (about 6.9 million).

Ready and furnished: how to work out the rent

The advantage at Dayz is that the unit is ready and furnished, so you could let it from the first season without spending on finishing and furniture. There are no rent figures on our list for the village, so do this before buying:

1. Ask in the nearby Alamein villages what a furnished studio or chalet lets for per night in July and August, and in the rest of the year.
2. Multiply the nightly rate by the nights it could realistically be let, not by 365.
3. Subtract maintenance and service charges, and any rental management share.
4. Compare the result with the yearly instalment in the table above.

For a starting figure: for rent to cover the whole instalment, the unit needs to bring in, on average, a net monthly amount equal to the yearly instalment over 12. That is about 573,000 for the studio, 576,000 for the one-bedroom, 500,000 for the two-bedroom and 432,000 for the three-bedroom. Set those against what you hear in the villages around it and you will see quickly whether the unit can cover itself during the instalment years.

If net rent falls well short of the instalment, the unit is a family summer home whose rent covers part of its cost. Know that when you sign, so an empty season does not surprise you.

Dayz location in Alamein

The village is in Alamein on the North Coast; the pin is under location. At about 5 feddans it is a small village with few units, which makes a difference to calm and to how crowded the amenities get compared with large villages. For other villages and compounds in the area, the Alamein compounds page lists everything selling, the chalets for sale in Alamein page shows chalets only, and studios for sale in Alamein is for a small unit.

Before choosing, visit on an ordinary day as well as in season, check the distance from the unit to the sea yourself, and time the drive from Cairo at a weekend. None of that is in a price table, but it changes the value of a summer home and its rent.

Dayz against other ready units in Alamein

If you simply want a ready unit in Alamein, there are much cheaper options per metre. They are apartments in towers or blocks, and unfurnished:

• Zahra Down Town: ready three-bedrooms from EGP 7,948,200 for 78 m², with 5% down over 6 years.
• Downtown Extension: ready apartments from 5,153,000, with 5% down over 3 years.
• North Edge New Alamein: towers with ready apartments from 6,838,000.

A Dayz metre costs three to four times as much. What you pay for: a small village, a furnished chalet, and low-rise houses instead of towers. If that does not matter to you, those apartments save millions.

Dayz payment terms against other coastal villages

The shortest thing at Dayz is the plan. For comparison, plans on our list in October 2026 for villages selling on the North Coast:

• Azha North Coast in Ras El Hekma: one-bedroom chalets from 12,538,190, with phases at 0% down over 9 and 10 years.
• Marsa Baghush in Sidi Heneish: three-bedroom chalets from 19,800,000, with 10% down over 9 years.
• SouthMed in Al Dabaa: apartments from 9,644,590, with 2% down over 15 years.

None of those is ready; they hand over between 2028 and 2030, while Dayz is ready. The choice is between receiving now and paying over a few years, or paying over a long term and waiting. Someone with cash who wants a summer home now is better served by Dayz; someone budgeting by the monthly instalment is far better off in the others.

In numbers: the Dayz studio, 15,290,000, is paid off in two years. The SouthMed apartment at 9,644,590 is paid over 15 years, about 630,000 a year after the down payment. The yearly gap is more than tenfold, while the price gap is about 1.6 times.

Mercon Developments

Mercon was founded in 2019 by Ahmed Embaby and Kamel Ibrahim, and most of its work is in New Cairo: small compounds and commercial projects. Dayz is its coastal project. For a home in Cairo on a longer plan from the same company:

• Nurai in El Lotus: studios from 4,363,000 and three-bedrooms from 9,255,813, with 5% down over 8 years.
• Riverton opposite the American University: apartments from 5,092,200, with 5% down over 8 years.

It also has two more coastal projects in Alamein, Solen and Marsa, though no priced units are on our list there now.

Dayz pros and cons

In its favour: units are ready and furnished, saving the time and cost of finishing; the village is small, at 5 feddans; and the three-bedroom has a lower price per metre than the other types.

What to weigh: very short plans, two to five years; down payments up to 30% on the three-bedroom; one of the highest prices per metre in Alamein; and only one or two units of each type available, so little choice of floor or view.

Who buys at Dayz?

Going by the numbers, Dayz suits three kinds of buyer. Someone with substantial cash who wants a ready, furnished summer home to receive and use straight away, for whom a large down payment and a short term are not a problem. An investor with high, steady income who can pay 430,000 to 575,000 a month and wants a unit earning rent from the first season; they should run the rent sums above first. And a large family that wants space: the 131 m² three-bedroom chalet fits best and is also the lowest-priced metre in the village, though its down payment is 11,100,000.

On a 7 to 10 million budget, Dayz is out of range; the Alamein alternatives above, such as Zahra Down Town and Downtown Extension, are in it.

Before you book at Dayz

• Visit the ready unit itself and check the furniture and its condition.
• Get the furniture list written into the contract.
• Ask about the village's yearly maintenance charges.
• Ask whether the developer runs rental management, and its share.
• Ask whether a plan longer than the one listed for the unit is possible.
• Ask about a cash discount, since the term is short anyway and the difference could be large.
• Check the unit's position relative to the sea and the pool on the master plan.
