Quinta do Lago, located in Portugal's Algarve region, is one of the most exclusive golf resorts in Europe. It's also one of the continent's most sought-after residential estates, and, as a result of an extremely high level of demand, finding Quinta do Lago property for sale is no easy task. But that's hardly surprising, given that it's a truly unique location. Located in almost 1,600 acres of land on Portugal's southern tip, the resort is surrounded by lush pine forests, clear lakes, and miles of white, sandy beaches. Its in-demand villas, townhouses and apartments boast some truly stunning architecture; but, thankfully, the place isn't too crowded with property. This is because Quinta do Lago also borders Portugal's Ria Formosa National Park and, due to restrictions put in place by the UNESCO Ria Formosa bird sanctuary, only 8% of the land is allowed to be built upon. This is yet another reason why it can be difficult to find Quinta do Lago property for sale, and another reason why the resort is so exclusive: restrictions on building mean there simply isn't enough property available for everyone. It almost goes without saying, but, first and foremost, Quinta do Lago is home to some of the best golf courses on the planet. This, coupled with the resort's hosting of regular and exclusive golf tournaments, means that for golf fanatics locations don't come any better. But Quinta do Lago's golf courses are really only the beginning of what it has to offer. In fact, many of the resort's residents aren't even serious golfers; there are enough activities available at the resort to meet the demands of even the fussiest holidaymaker. As it's situated so near to the coast, beach parties are a regular occurrence. Water sports are also on offer for the resort's residents; Quinta do Lago is even home to a permanent water sports centre, where residents can arrange to do anything from water-skiing to kitesurfing, scuba diving to sailing. As the resort is surrounded by such abundant greenery, there are also plenty of the more earthbound pursuits on offer. For example, residents can enjoy long hikes on nearby nature trails, picnicking in the woods, mountain-biking, or even horse-riding. Of course, for those more interested in pampering than back-to-nature activities, the resort doesn't disappoint on that front, either. Multiple luxury spas, outstanding restaurants, and designer shopping boutiques are all located within Quinta do Lago. Really, with the resort's extensive facilities all grouped within a short distance, it would be possible to participate in a downright dizzying range of activities all in a single day. But the idea is that, for residents, these are the kinds of facilities and activities that are available throughout the year. And when you weigh up the range of its attractions, it's easy to see why property in the resort is fast becoming scarce. Ultimately, Quinta do Lago is the kind of place that, once it's fully occupied, will stay that way. And with only 8% of its land available for building, it's also one of the few places in the world that will remain like paradise even when it's completely full.
