Kevin Sheridan, CEO of developers Sheridan Resorts, said: 'Linda brings immense energy and enthusiasm to the project and adds a reassuringly professional eye to detail.' Overlooking a lake on a new championship golf course, the resort is due for completion in 2010. Prices start from £40,000.
Also in the UNESCO protected Razlog Valley, where strict planning regulations mean that land near to the development will stay undisturbed, Alpine Valley is a unique complex locally in that unlike most new homes for sale it is not been sold off-plan, but key ready.
Parvez, who is selling the resort, says the developer chose to deliver the concept before starting sales to allow potential purchasers to see what they are getting for their money before committing to buy.
The complex’s facilities includ an 18-metre indoor swimming pool, plunge pool, outdoor heated swimming pool, 24 hour concierge service, restaurant, spa centre, gymnasium, cocktail bar, wi-fi internet connectivity, and an awarded winning home entertainment system (Cedia 2008) which is fully integrated and compatible with iPod products.

Paradise Dune, which is situated only 200 metres from the seafront at Sozopol, on the Black Sea coast. Prices start from €38,550 (£32,000) with Experience International
If your idea of a holiday home is more beach than mountain, Bulgaria has a crescent shaped Black Sea coastline that has great sandy beaches and calm waters. Resorts such as Sunny Beach have taken off in a big way with the bucket and spade crowd.
Cheap flights in the summer season, and cheap property prices, draw the punters in and provide value for money. Up the road is the more sedate Sozopol, located around 25 miles form Bourgas Airport.
Property for sale locally includes Paradise Dune, which is situated only 200 metres from the seafront and around two miles from the vibrant centre of Sozopol. Paradise Dune offers beautiful properties in a natural unspoilt area and comes with fantastic facilities including an excellent onsite sports and leisure centre.
