A ‘matur<strong>in</strong>g market’<br />

*<br />

We get the <strong>property</strong> expert's view on Qu<strong>in</strong>ta do Lago from Charles Wes<strong>to</strong>n-Baker,<br />

Direc<strong>to</strong>r of Savills International.<br />

Qu<strong>in</strong>ta do Lago is, quite simply, Europe's Premier Golf Resort, <strong>and</strong> a real gem <strong>in</strong> my<br />

op<strong>in</strong>ion – with noth<strong>in</strong>g <strong>to</strong> equal it <strong>in</strong> terms of quality <strong>and</strong> value for money.<br />

<strong>The</strong> great th<strong>in</strong>g about Qu<strong>in</strong>ta do Lago, is that it just seems <strong>to</strong> get better <strong>and</strong> more<br />

sophisticated as it matures, which is not someth<strong>in</strong>g one can say about many resorts<br />

throughout the world. Many new resorts promise quality, facilities <strong>and</strong> service <strong>in</strong> the<br />

beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g <strong>and</strong> then as the properties sell out, st<strong>and</strong>ards often drop <strong>and</strong> they quickly<br />

appear run down. Not so <strong>in</strong> Qu<strong>in</strong>ta. Some 35 years s<strong>in</strong>ce the visionary Andre Jordan<br />

created the resort, the <strong>in</strong>frastructure, facilities <strong>and</strong> properties still look first class. <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>property</strong> values reflect this <strong>and</strong> cont<strong>in</strong>ue <strong>to</strong> be strong.<br />

To me, Qu<strong>in</strong>ta do Lago is one of the world's <strong>to</strong>p dest<strong>in</strong>ations. And I'm not alone <strong>in</strong> this<br />

op<strong>in</strong>ion. Several recent television <strong>and</strong> radio polls show that the Algarve is always <strong>in</strong> the<br />

<strong>to</strong>p five, if not the first or second best dest<strong>in</strong>ations, <strong>in</strong> terms of best foreign <strong>in</strong>vestment or<br />

best golf<strong>in</strong>g dest<strong>in</strong>ations. And if it's sunsh<strong>in</strong>e you want, it's well known that the Algarve<br />

enjoys more sunsh<strong>in</strong>e than any other part of Europe.<br />

Savills is delighted <strong>to</strong> be work<strong>in</strong>g with the premier agency cover<strong>in</strong>g the Qu<strong>in</strong>ta do Lago<br />

area, Qu<strong>in</strong>ta <strong>Properties</strong>. Over the years they have proven themselves <strong>to</strong> offer the very best<br />

<strong>in</strong> personal service, professionalism <strong>and</strong> – with their extensive experience <strong>in</strong> the <strong>to</strong>p end<br />

of the market – we are proud <strong>to</strong> have them as our chosen associates.<br />
