In the Golden Triangle of the Algarve, facing the ocean that bathes the beaches of southern Portugal, it is possible to buy a luxury house right in the middle of a golf resort.

“I love going to the Algarve and playing golf", says young footballer Harry Kane. But the statement of Tottenham top scorer has been said many times by many other sportsmen, artists, tourists and even professional golfers. The reason is simple: the Algarve has ideal conditions for golf lovers, including beautifully groomed fields that attract people from all over the world who want to visit it - and people who want to stay. Near the temperate waters of the seaside beaches of the Atlantic ocean, just where the Mediterranean ends, many foreigners become neighbours to Portuguese people, buy plot areas, propertiesreal estate, and decide to begin a life in this paradise of southern Europe. Golf is one of the biggest attractions.

This is the case of Bonnie Tyler, an old friend of the Algarve, who has been coming to the region since the 1970s, when she was still going to edit “Total eclipse of the heart”, a song that makes hearts tremble. The British singer lives much of the year at her home in Albufeira, being part of the local community. The people of the Algarve are, therefore, a melting pot of peoples. There are nearly 70 thousand foreigners living in the Algarve, a number that has been increasing, because of the excellent natural conditions and quality of life that many Europeans find here to spend their retirement. Several official inquiries point out that one of the main reasons for Europeans to choose the Algarve as a place to purchase a permanent home or a second home is the fact that Portugal is a safe country – it’s the fourth safest country in the world -, as well as the range of tax advantages that it offers to foreign citizens.

But if the Algarve is sea, beach and sun, this temperate and extremely special climate also creates the ideal conditions for there to be today about 50 golf courses in the region designed by the best architects - from Lagos, further west, to Castro Marim, next to Vila Real de Santo António, in the east. We can find the largest concentration of courses between PortimãoAlbufeiraAlvorOlhão and Silves. It is the area surrounding the so-called Golden Triangle of the Algarve, where numerous golf courses are often awarded and recognized as being among the best in Europe.

When you look at the map, the Golden Triangle looks like a constellation of stars, formed by Vilamoura and its magnificent marinaVale de Lobo and its wonderful beachesAlmancil and its impressive landscapes and the unforgettable Quinta do Lago. It is in the middle of this constellation of stars that you find the most exclusive golf resorts, with luxurious houses for sale.

Quinta do Lago, located in the municipality of Loulé, parish of Almancil, is one of the largest references of the Algarve and one of the most luxurious resorts in Europe. It stands out by its nature, leisure, security and infrastructures. The beaches and golf courses are two of its real strengths. Its location, alongside the Atlantic Ocean, allows this region, as is the case throughout the rest of the Algarve, to enjoy from a temperate climate, with almost 365 days of sun per year and a mild sea water temperature. Real estate is another differentiation factor. The luxury properties, with high-quality finishes and details and unique positioning, in full golf resort, attract not only tourists, but also investors and, above all, people driven by the ambition to find the home of their dreams. The beauty of Quinta do Lago Beach, in the heart of the Natural Park of Ria Formosa; the privacy of the Ancão Beach and the comfort of Garrão Poente Beach, the last two on the road to Vale de Lobo, are another trilogy that people from all over the world fall in love with. Moreover, here, so close to the sea, there are from luxury villas to apartments with swimming pool in gated communities just waiting for you to buy them. In this region, what the real estate sector has to sell are turnkey dreams.

It is the “lime Algarve”, as the poet Alexandre O'Neill wrote in a poem about Portugal as a country rimmed by “salt, sun, south”. But the luxury properties and apartments are harmoniously integrated in this group of houses, respecting the authenticity of the region and its welcoming people. That’s what you confirm when you call a real estate agent at LUXIMOS Christie’s International Real Estate and this Algarve is presented to us – a row of traditional houses, whitewashed and adorned in blue, with sun-drenched terraces and flat-roof terraces, mixed with the most modern and luxurious houses framed by the green of the golf courses.
