Drenched in sunshine at the southernmost tip of Portugal,
the Algarve has become one of the most sought-after locations
for British and Irish people buying abroad, almost all of
them looking for, and invariably finding, an unhurried yet
sophisticated way of life.
Derived from the Arabic ‘Al Garb’ meaning ‘the
west’, the Algarve has developed a character that is
totally different from other parts of Portugal. With the rolling
Atlantic to the south and west, the Guadiana River to the
east and the Caldeirao and Monchique mountains to the north,
you are surrounded by magnificent scenery rich in an artist’s
palette of vibrant colours: brilliant blue skies, seas of
green pine forests, golden sands, amber cliffs and a shimmering
aquamarine ocean.

About the Area
The Algarve is perfect for those who enjoy water sports such
as swimming, scuba diving, water skiing, sailing, deep sea
fishing and surfing- as well as for those who want nothing
more than to laze in the sun with a good book working on their
tans. Landlubbers can find solace in some of the world’s
top ranking golf courses, tennis academies, horse riding centres
and countless shops, bars, cafes and restaurants as they while
away the long, sun drenched hazy days.
The majority of our properties lie between the Spanish border
in the east and Sagres in the west, and a high percentage
within the famous ‘Golden Triangle’ including
the prestigious developments of Vale do Lobo, Quinta do Lago,
Vale dos Pinheiros, Quinta do Mar and Vila Sol.
All in all, with some of the lowest mortgage rates on the
market for a very long time, there really couldn’t be
a better time to contact us and start looking for your dream
home in Portugal. top>>
