REGIONAL INFORMATION FOR PORTUGAL
Surprisingly, Portugal has so far missed out on
Europe's housing boom - which has led many industry
observers to conclude that it offers some of the
best prospects on the continent. With no
restrictions on foreign property ownership in
Portugal, and generally low transaction costs,
Portugal is beginning to attract more investors. At
the same time, a major tourism push over the next
couple of years, a new airport planned near Lisbon,
and an increasing number of flights are making it a
more popular holiday destination.
English is
widely spoken by this traditional ally of Britain,
but Portugal is proud of its cultural heritage -
seen in its pristinely restored palaces and castles.
Boasting the first vineyard in Europe, and numerous
wine regions, it combines a fertile landscape with
some stunning beach resorts.
PRAIA
D'EL REY
Praia D'el Rey, or 'the King's
beach', on the Silver Coast is a highly acclaimed
World Class beachside golf and spa resort recently
voted the number one in Portugal and number thirteen
worldwide by a leading golf magazine. Its five star
Marriott hotel is now open and is situated right on
the ocean.
Praia D'el Rey Golf and Country
Club is a clever mix of leisure facilities and real
estate, beautifully landscaped to complement the
surrounding countryside. This 600-acre beachfront
resort is set in natural pine woodland surrounded by
sandy beaches.
Located near the historic
town of Obidos, it is less than half an hour's drive
from Lisbon International Airport via the A8
motorway system. Low cost airlines flying into
Lisbon include Easyjet and Monarch, together with BA
and TAP.
Golf at Praia D'el Rey
The Praia D'el Rey course was designed by the
renowned American golf architect, Cabell B. Robinson
- with deep bunkers, sloping greens and sandy
borders contrasting sharply with the lush fairways.
It is the ultimate golfing challenge, not only on
the Silver Coast but throughout the rest of Portugal
and possibly Europe as well. Owners currently enjoy
membership for a modest annual fee with no further
green fees to pay.
The resort has a golf and
tennis academy, volleyball and handball course and
FIFA football pitch and facilities that are used
frequently by Portugal's national side and other
visiting teams and clubs.
Living at
Praia D'el Rey
Promising an idyllic
lifestyle for permanent residents, holidaymakers and
visitors - with stunning views of the ocean and the
golf course - the resort boasts a variety of
low-rise apartments, townhouses and luxury villas.
Whether you are buying for lifestyle or investment,
or a little of both, this is probably the most
sought after address on the Silver Coast.
Owners at Praia D'el Rey have seen substantial
capital growth and the current Vila da Praia
promises similar if not better returns. Now is the
time to invest in property at Praia D'el Rey on
Portugal's Silver Coast.
