Warm winters are ideal for enjoying the region’s golf courses. Energetic sports, luxurious pampering and wonderful scenery: the Algarve has it all.
The Region is home to a truly international population, many of whom first discovered the region from the immaculate greens of its golf courses. Politically stable, it is considered safe and secure at national and individual level. As a tourist destination it has something for all the family. As a getaway, it is ideal for weekends and short breaks. As a place to live, it offers international-level education, medical care and fine wining and dining. For investors, all this provides a track record that is hard to beat.
Vilamoura
Since its inception 35 years ago, Vilamoura has matured into one of Europe’s most complete resorts. A town with a year-round residential community, it also attracts many thousands of visitors each year, drawn by its plethora of facilities. On land and on sea, there is plenty to do for all the family, with all the practical support services necessary to ensure pleasure and comfort, safety and security.
Vilamoura is the leading golf destination in Southern Europe, with a choice of five very individual courses, all with their own characteristics and challenges. These golf courses were the first in the world to be awarded the prestigious ISO14001 certification for environmental management. A number of world-class events have been held here, including the Portugal Open, the Volvo Order of Merit and the World Golf Championships. International, independent plaudits include top rankings from the noted Peugeot guide, USA Golf Digest and others.
Victoria Golf
For the latest Vilamoura golf course, no expense was spared. A true maestro, Arnold Palmer, was commissioned to design the course, and has produced a master course with over 90 hectares of landscaped terrain in the heart of Vilamoura. The Clubhouse is spacious and comfortable, with first-class facilities for players and a restaurant for anyone who appreciates fine food in beautiful surroundings.
