He added that the hometown of the project was France and French architect François Spoerry had developed it. Dalgiç said the municipality also had a boutique hotel in Port Alaçati. “Urban administrations fill the sea for construction. We clean the sea by cleaning the land. Our aim is to create a prestigious region and enable those who prefer Port Alaçati to live by the sea,” Dalgiç said. He added that 10 houses from the first phase had been sold to local and foreign customers and other houses were up for sale.
