Introduction to Waterway Branded Residence in New Cairo
Waterway Branded Residence — also known as WBR1 — is the first serviced branded-residence project by The Waterway Developments, located in El Choueifat at the heart of New Cairo, on the master plan adjacent to the delivered 5A Waterway commercial mall.
The project introduces a relatively new product to the Egyptian market: a fully finished and furnished apartment paired with daily hospitality services, covering housekeeping, concierge, room service, valet, and reception, in the same style as a five-star hotel residence elsewhere.
Waterway Branded Residence comprises 150 serviced residential units spread across a low-rise ground-floor-plus-two-floors building (G+2), with sizes from 62 sqm studios up to 500 sqm three-bedroom layouts, sized for end users, short-stay investors, and business owners in the New Cairo cluster.
The product targets three segments: the end user seeking a luxury apartment with daily hotel service in New Cairo, the investor pursuing an easy-to-lease short-term rental unit with hotel-grade yield, and the business owner or clinic operator looking for a residence next door to their workplace.
Operation of the hospitality service inside Waterway Branded Residence will be handled in partnership with an international hospitality operator. The exact brand name has not been publicly disclosed as of May 2026 per Nawy, PropertyFinder, and IPG Egypt sources, and we will update the article on announcement.
Waterway Branded Residence prices for 2026 start at EGP 39,068,750 for a 62 sqm studio, with a 5 per cent down payment and 5-year interest-free instalments. Delivery is scheduled for Q4 2027 with full finishing and turnkey hotel-grade furnishing on handover.
Waterway Branded Residence Location in New Cairo
Waterway Branded Residence sits inside El Choueifat at the heart of New Cairo, directly behind the delivered 5A Waterway mixed-use mall, with entries from the Middle Ring Road and a secondary feed from South 90th Street.
The location is strategic because El Choueifat has emerged as one of the most desirable addresses inside New Cairo, hosting premium projects such as One Ninety, Mivida, and Katameya Heights, alongside a cluster of established sporting and social clubs nearby.

Design of Waterway Branded Residence
The architecture of Waterway Branded Residence follows global branded-residence standards, with a low-density ground-plus-two-floors structure housing the 150 serviced units, finished in a modern facade and arriving with a full hotel-style reception lobby on the ground floor.

The low density is intentional. With only 150 units spread across three floors, the resident-to-staff ratio runs high, delivering a privacy and service experience closer to a five-star hotel residence than to the traditional high-rise serviced-apartment block elsewhere in Cairo.
Every unit inside Waterway Branded Residence is delivered Super Lux finished plus turnkey furnished, with kitchen appliances, air conditioning, and full hospitality-grade furniture already in place, plus a dedicated parking space allocated to each unit.
The site's adjacency to the delivered 5A Waterway commercial mall gives residents walking access to retail, dining, offices, and clinics on the same master plan, creating a live-work-play environment inside a single integrated cluster in New Cairo.
Area & Spaces of Units in Waterway Branded Residence
Waterway Branded Residence offers four categories of serviced apartments across the G+2 building. The mix serves the single professional, the young couple, and the small family seeking a fully serviced address inside the New Cairo cluster.
Studios start between 45 and 75 sqm, sized for singles, frequent travellers, and short-stay business guests. One-bedroom units range between 95 and 150 sqm, while two-bedroom units span 125 to 190 sqm, suiting couples and small families looking for hotel-grade living.
Three-bedroom apartments at Waterway Branded Residence extend between 185 and 345 sqm and form the largest tier inside the project. Every unit category arrives with Super Lux finishing, full hotel-style furnishing, and a turnkey handover ready for occupation or leasing.
Waterway Branded Residence Prices 2026
Waterway Branded Residence prices for 2026 start at EGP 39,068,750 for a 62 sqm studio, putting the average per-sqm price around EGP 630,000 for the smaller tiers, per the latest live price list on PropertyFinder Egypt for the project this quarter.
One-bedroom units in Waterway Branded Residence start around EGP 58,000,000, with two-bedroom layouts beginning near EGP 78,000,000. The actual price within each tier depends on floor area, floor level, and window orientation across the building.
Larger three-bedroom apartments at Waterway Branded Residence reaching 345 sqm exceed EGP 150,000,000 per unit. This tier approaches the luxury penthouse bracket in New Cairo's pricing landscape, particularly given the inclusive hotel-grade service operation.

Installment Plan for Waterway Branded Residence
Waterway Branded Residence offers a flexible payment plan competitive with peer branded residences across New Cairo: a 5 per cent down payment with the balance instalmented across 5 years interest-free, and delivery scheduled for Q4 2027 from the developer.
On a unit priced at EGP 39,068,750 with a 5 per cent down payment, the buyer pays approximately EGP 1,953,438 at contract. The remaining EGP 37,115,312 is then split across 20 quarterly instalments over five years, roughly EGP 1,855,766 every three months.
Quarterly instalments at Waterway Branded Residence run alongside construction milestones, with handover at Q4 2027. Some early-bird buyers may secure additional discounts during the pre-launch window, ahead of the public reveal of the hospitality operator partner.
Why Invest in Waterway Branded Residence
Investment in Waterway Branded Residence rests on four drivers. First, the branded-residence product is relatively new to the Egyptian market and is drawing strong demand from Gulf and expatriate buyers, following proven success across comparable schemes in Dubai and Riyadh.
Second, operational yield for short-term rental in New Cairo runs between 1.5x and 2x the typical residential yield. A fully serviced hotel-style apartment plugs easily into Airbnb and Booking.com inventory, with minimal owner involvement and a turnkey letting profile from day one.
Third, the El Choueifat location plus the adjacency to the delivered 5A Waterway mall delivers walking-distance access to dining, retail, offices, and clinics — a rare advantage among serviced-apartment products in New Cairo, where most peers sit isolated on standalone plots.
Fourth, the 5 per cent entry plus 5-year interest-free instalments opens the branded-residence premium segment to buyers with limited liquid capital. Comparable branded products elsewhere in New Cairo typically require higher initial down payments and shorter horizons.
Compared with sister The Waterway Developments projects such as Kairo and W Signature, Waterway Branded Residence stands out as the only serviced hospitality product inside the developer portfolio in New Cairo.

Waterway Branded Residence delivers a full hospitality service stack that converts each unit into a plug-and-play residence. The owner walks in with a suitcase and starts living or leasing without any additional fit-out, which is the essence of the branded-residence proposition.

- Concierge service operating 24/7.

General Features of Waterway Branded Residence
The headline features of Waterway Branded Residence combine its El Choueifat location, the low-density 150-unit footprint, and the turnkey hotel-grade furnishing, all underwritten by The Waterway Developments operating record across New Cairo:
Drawbacks of Waterway Branded Residence & The Solution
First drawback: the international hospitality operator has not been publicly named as of May 2026, leaving some buyers hesitant to sign the final contract before knowing the brand identity and its global service record.
Mitigation: a contract approach is to sign initial reservation with the 5 per cent down payment, attach an operator-disclosure clause to the final contract, and wait for the formal announcement from The Waterway Developments before settling the larger instalments. Current pricing is also supported by an early-bird discount.
Second drawback: annual service charges run higher than for a conventional apartment, reflecting the cost of integrated housekeeping, concierge, and spa hospitality services that are bundled into the residency contract from day one.
Mitigation: the service-charge premium is offset by the short-term rental yield, which exceeds conventional residential rental income by at least 2x, converting the service charge from a pure cost into an investment that lifts the achievable lease rate.
