Plans to develop a massive tourist complex at Ħondoq ir-Rummien have finally been shot down, after a 22-year legal battle.
The Appeals Court upheld the Environment and Planning Review Tribunal’s reconfirmed rejection from the Planning Authority board of the Ħondoq ir-Rummien project.
The project was to include a deluxe 5-star hotel with 110 bedrooms, 25 self-catering villas, 60 hotel apartments, 203 apartments, 1,249 underground parking spaces, and a village centre – which was to include a church and shops.
Plans for a yacht marina for approximately 100 to 150 berths were included in the original application but later dropped by the developer.
