seems like RF verdura did some sand importing. dont think thats the property i remember. i remember something about a golf course and original sand not being right color or something like that, so they brought in a different color of sand.
this is why the question of does luxury make money comes up. i dont think the property i remember was a real estate development like amanzoe.

was that in an interview with dolphin?
i recall another property had special sand brought in for golf course, so would not be anything new, and again amanzoe is part of massive real estate development. i posted an investor document discussing their projected profit.

Sand
was that in an interview with dolphin? i cant recall if i remember it coming up re amanzoe or only re another property somewhere else, that had special sand brought in for golf course. so if amanzoe did it, its not the first time its been done. and again amanzoe is part of massive real estate development. i posted an investor document discussing their projected profit, mainly on real estate sales - just the amanzoe piece.

When I was there I don't recall the sand being very 'special'. It was just sand. But it was sand and not pebbles, which in and of itself might be considered special in Greece.

Amanzoe Video
[QUOTE=xracer;21216791]Beach club is still somewhat stark (in a good way IMO). I'm not sure that it will ever be any different.
Found a video here, not sure if its a fellow flyertalk member but I don't recall anyone here being this open with showing their face in pictures before. Rather long but you can skip ahead to get a feeling of the public areas.

Next is the suite
