I've had the good fortune to email some of you(sorry martin!) and as this development is potentially 3 weeks away from starting(,although if a developer hasnt been announced yet ,surely it will take them a month or so to get things moving).



But it would be nice to get everyone on the forum on a mailing list so we can find out how long things will take etc and share info.I'm happy to compile it as we all want it to go well,and 40 of us badgering kensington might make the odd difference.



It would also be nice to exchange info on travel to bafra from larnaca and ercan with any taxi no's you might have,as most of us will probably have been driven by the developer from girne/kyrenia.



I'm over there from 7-11th april and will be driving over there ,dont worry i'll get pics and put them on a website for you to browse,i'll also pop in and see fiona/andrew if i can find them!!.

Hi Stu,



I've just decided to purchase at Thalassa, keep me informed and up to date if you don't mind. I'm a novice at all this . I'm still concerned about the whole process but have to hope it all works out for me and everybody else. Having read through the forum it seems like you guys have been waiting a while for construction to take place ? Did you know last year that the uilding would not start until now ? Let me know how you get on overthere in April thanks.

I would be happy to know that there are other people like me. I'll be happy to be on your list . I would like to be in touch with people I'm going to be neighbours with.

I just thought I would post a message. I have just reserved a 3 bedroom apartment and am hoping to exchange contracts within the next couple of weeks.



It would be great to keep in touch with all you other owners.

Just to let you all know that myself and my colleague have just exchanged contracts on two two-bed apartments at Thalassa. We went over last November to visit the site and hope to go again later this year.



Stu, I will email you both our email addresses so you can add us to your list.

Hi to you all,let me tell you Elvis may be alive at present but that could all change if we have many more doughnut cracks!!!!(that's if he wrote it,looking at the spelling me thinks it was Priscilla!)I don't know about being alive to see the completion of the apts i'll be glad to be here to see them started!!!!!!!!!!! I think the NEW start date says it all!!

Stu



P.s In answer to a query,I've bitten the bullet and registered the contract via the solicitor as I don't want to waste any time on my holiday in april,read the advice from kensington,but on further research decided it was right for me to do.I know its not necessary for those of us that reserved last year,but with Northern cyprus I like to keep things watertight.

Hiya all,



I have signed my contract and sent my deposit and really glad that I am not the only one. I was out there with a friend a few weeks ago and love Northern Cyprus - can't wait until Christmas 2011 (thought 2010 may be a bit previous and will probably be a bit of a building site anyway) - can picture sitting on the roof with a lovely glass os champagne already!! One of my friends is also about to sign her contract for an apartment in the same block as mine so thought we would arrange our 2011 Christmas party early!!



Please can you keep me in the loop with any visits and progress on the site



Thanks,



Jan (jaycee)

Hi All - maybe offline or online if people happy we could let each other know where we have bought ( block and number) would be great to get to know neighbours before we get there..... and we do have the time ..........

We are Block 5 Apt 47 or as it is now known 9-201 and we are Andrew and Sue and we have champagne ready for when the build starts... and when the foundations are dug.... and when.... the first block is laid .... and when ...well you get the picture!

Maybe the delays are planned to heighten our excitement!!!!

Check your emails folks seems some of our apartments have been INCREASED in size by 12 square metres!!



Has anyone bought a ground floor corner apartment with large pool ,and had extra terrace space added by accident(i.e roof of underground car park)??



I queried it in my plans and was told it was an oversight and i now had a supersize terrace,anyone else had it,probably only applies to 2 or 3 apartments with pools.



I'm going to get the whole thing decked but it'll be pricey no doubt!

I am in the process of selling a property I bought through this Company and have been informed that the developer will not sign any resale documentation unless they are given a £500 admin fee. It did start off at £1500 but my Estate Agent argued the point and the figure was changed. Has anyone else come across this? The only reason I point this out is that my original contract states clearly I have resale rights but nowhere does it state that I will be charged extra for this.

Hi All



Well I have just signed my contract and sent it to my solicitor. Fingers crossed it will all be plane sailing! We will see.



My apartment is 208 in Block 14, probably miles away from anyone else. I was a late starter in finding out about the resort!



OllieD - how did you manage to get a 2 bedroom apartment? I was advised they were all sold.



Stu, hopefully you have received an email from me directly to your address. I would be most grateful for any updates you or anyone else has.



Thanks so much

Hi Andrew and Sue,



We have purchased a two bed apt, Block 5, Apartment 48 at Thalassa Beach. Thought we should send a short e-mail to introduce ourselves. We live and work in the Shetland Isles and run our own small business which takes up most of our time at present, but we are hoping that in years to come we'll be able to find time to enjoy our property. We have bought the property for our own use rather than to let. Our e-mail address is ian@kinniburgh.co.uk if you want to get in touch.



Best wishes



Shirley and Ian

Can someone look at there contract with the plan drawing detailing the apartment(not the simple colour one in the brochures),and tell me if the terrace area has a dotted line all the way round.I'm confused as to where my boundary is,and how big my terrace actually is.



Incidentally anyone know who bought block 3 apartment 27?

Albie thanks I've sent a message to kensington,but from what I can see my terrace is massive somewhere in the region of 80 sq m,I knew it was going to be larger than advertised but would be great if it was that big,for the opening bbq of course assuming we'll all be out there for a visit at the same time once they say we can get the keys!

Just back from Thalassa,we spent a good deal of time,driving the new road from Kyrenia,and checking out development in and around Bafra,looking at the work in progress and back to the artemis to see how it was faring.



I'm in the process of uploading photos to everyone who sent me there email addresses and questions to ask kensington.



In a nutshell,its just brown earth,top layer cleared,saw no construction machinery,vehicles etc etc.Beach and water is a right filthy mess,they'll have to do a big job on that.I've got many questions still unanswered as to the actual dimensions of the apartments,and a real concern as to the communal areas being extremely close to private terrace areas,inc my own pool.Anyone with a ground floor near a grassy area should take a look at it.



I also took pics of the number of sold apartments in each block,out of 309 available about 45% have been sold,or so the boards on site indicate.There are still some areas between block 3 and beyond which they may or may not turn into more apartments,can't see iy myself though.



I'll try and elaborate more in the emails,I did expect more.Kensington staff friendly throughout.



If anyone has a ground floor corner pool apartment you might like to email me,as you will def have concerns with the communal areas.Fiona is on the case though,so hopefully I'll hear soon.

Hi everyone, I am new to the site. I have also signed papers to purchase an apartment in the thalassa resort. Initially my boyfriend and i had agreed to buy a 2 bed, 1st floor apartment but then we got a leaflet in the post about the new penthouse apartments with jacuzzi on roof etc and there was no way we could say no(!) so now we are trying to figure out where the rest of the money will come from! but ultimately it will be worth it, if only for the gorgeous views. we visited the site last august and there wasn't much there except the viewing tower. can't wait until it's completed!

I scoped the Thalassa blog last nite, and according to this, and the people at the sales office, they started clearing the buildsite around the beginning of this month. If you've put down a deposit, you should soon get the blog invite.

Hi gandy,



I have had all types of feelings since signing the contract but I am now really confident that everything is going to work out really well - dreams can come true. I have always said that Savils would not want to be involved with anything that went pear shaped and now that they are actually building it appears to be onwards and upwards. Just completing the accomodation for 200+ workers has to give a clear indication that they are serious.

Dont give up Stu! - The thalassa 22 appreciate what ur trying to do. Maybe a new thread titled Join Thalassa Owners Group - or something like would encourage some people to reply - I think that when they see 60 - 70 msgs next to a thread it could put them off actually reading through them.

Just a thought

Hi Stu,



I don't want to be added to your list, thanks.

I'm an investor, so will be selling as soon as the project is finished, and going on to the next project with the profits made.

Hi Nellie,



Depends on where you want to stay. I recommend staying in Kyrenia.

The harbour is great, restaurants near the waterside, loads of shopping, siteseeing etc.



If you've bought thru Savills in the UK, you are entitled to an Inspection Visit. You should contact the sales person who sold you the apartment, they can offer good rates at some of the 5-star hotels, in Kyrenia because the developer is well known to some of the hotelliers (they move in the same circles). I stayed at The Rocks. It's got a casino so hold on to your wallet.



That sales person should also be able to give you a number for a travel agency that can advise on and book your flights. And bonus !! Savills arrange for airport transfers as well. And they drive you to Thalassa to check the site.



Some of the guys here on this forum can probably recommend other hotels, but I'm sure they've all used the Inspection Visit thingy.



Guys, if you have any other advice, fire away. I'm also going back to NC in September to check on progress at Thalassa, and scope out a few other developments, and would appreciate if you check with the wives about shopping, so I can keep my other half happy.

Hi Nellie, we are visiting the site on the 14th July , Savills helped us with the inspection visit but as we live in cyprus so we chose to go cheap as we could , as such we have booked hotel sempati in kyriena, we paid 190 pounds for two b and b for a week. It is stunning for the price but i think you will need a car to explore the area and take in everything the area has to offer. We have reserved in block 2. Nice to speak to you xxxx

Hi, probably a long shot but we will be in the thalassa area for a week from July 14th if anyone else was over there and fancied meeting for coffee/keo and chatting about the purchase, anything we might need to ask/find out whilst over there. Will be pleased to hear from anyone interested xxx
