Aqaba Housing
Friends,
Moving to Aqaba in July and need an idea about housing budget. Any idea on the price of a 3 or 4 bed villa or apartment in the 'expat' areas?
Any idea on rent prices for Tala Bay?
I've googled and googled but cannot find any info.
Thanks,

Re: Aqaba Housing
I know that prices in Aqaba have sky-rocketed from what they used to be, but would say that something like what you are looking for should not be more than maybe $400, but am not 100% sure. I'd say it is near impossible to find a place to live by using the internet because most places are owned by small landlords and there aren't many rental agents. The good thing in this respect is you deal directly with the owner but you will have to be there yourself to find a place. Out of curiousity, what will you be doing in Aqaba?

I'll be taking the family out there (from Bahrain) at the end of May to do some house hunting and will let the forum know how I get on. The wife has seen Tala Bay on the internet and is keen on staying there...... lets see......
