Vale do Lobo

As a buy-to-let investment Vale do Lobo is second to none. It enjoys high rental demand due to golf, tennis and luxury holiday tourism. Weekly villa rents of between €9,000 – €10,000 during the summer are not uncommon.

Property values have remained high and this may be in part due to the restrictive property development policy – only a few plots are released each year. Little more than 1,500 properties have been built on Vale do Lobo’s 450 hectares since its inception in the early 60’s. With such a low property density it has maintained its exclusivity and reputation as a luxury retreat.

Properties are well constructed and beautifully finished with styles ranging from typical Portuguese to ultra modern. The gated community, secured by its own private security company and CCTV network, includes the tennis academy – the largest tennis facility in the area with 14 courts and two padel courts, two championship golf courses – The Royal and The Ocean, 15 bars and restaurants, a spa, fitness and medical centre as well as luxury boutiques, a bank and post office.

There is also an internal bus service which runs down to the beach complex known as The Praça. The Praça has a number of restaurants, bars, night clubs as well as swimming pools, clothes stores, beach concessions and wellness centres.

The resort continues to be one of the most sought after luxury holiday destinations in Europe. Whether you intend to rent your property or use it for family holidays, as an investment Vale do Lobo is sure to deliver a high return.
