Real estate investment in the Algarve
In a significant bid for tourism in the Iberian Peninsula, Kronos Real Estate Group announced a massive €700 million real estate investment in the Algarve region of Portugal and key assets in Madrid and Barcelona. This strategic move strengthens Kronos’ position in the real estate market and has profound implications for the region’s golf and tourism sectors.

 

Real estate investment in the Algarve

Kronos Real Estate Group will channel its investment into assets in strategic locations, including Madrid and Barcelona in Spain and the Algarve region in Portugal. This geographic diversification reflects Kronos’ vision to contribute to economic and tourism development in key areas.

Kronos’ investment will enrich the real estate landscape and positively impact tourism in the region. Madrid and Barcelona, known for their prosperous history and vibrant culture, will experience a boost in visitor attraction. In addition, the Algarve, famous for its golf courses and beautiful beaches, will benefit, consolidating its position as a top tourist destination.

 

A focus on the Algarve region

The Algarve region, a paradise for golf lovers, will benefit extensively from Kronos Real Estate Group’s investment. Thanks to its beautiful beaches and world-class golf courses, the region is already a popular destination for Portugal Golf Holidays. With more investment in tourism infrastructure, the Algarve will become even more attractive to national and international golfers. 

Kronos investment plan includes the construction of over 450 homes in Vale do Lobo Golf & Beach Resort, including houses and apartments, which will be part of Valle Real and Vale de San Antonio, as well as the Vale do Lobo area. The project also comprises the construction of a 5-star hotel, representing an investment of €500 million in 10 years.

This significant asset from Kronos Real Estate Group will positively impact the region’s tourism and real estate investment, with Madrid, Barcelona, and the Algarve also set to experience a boost in visitor attraction. The move highlights Kronos’ commitment to economic development and opens new regional perspectives regarding sustainable tourism and balanced growth.

Algarve new Restaurants

With the arrival of the summer holidays and the warm and long days inviting for delicious outdoor meals, new restaurants emerge for lunch, dinner or a simple gourmet snack.

During the pandemic, the Algarve saw the emergence of new restaurants, which try to counteract current adversities. From the seafood of the Algarve coast to the flavours of the East, there is so much to taste in the Portuguese’s favourite summer destination. If you are in the Algarve or going there, take a look at some of the new spots.

Restaurant Al Sud

Chef Louis Anjos signs the menus of the new fine dining restaurant at Palmares Ocean Living & Golf Resort, in Lagos. Space invites you to enjoy various tasting moments, with the best that the region has to offer, especially the seafood diversity. Tuna with oysters from the Alvor river, oscietra caviar and granny apple, Iberian pork noodles with stew broth, Monchique corns and fine herbs, sea bass with rice from the Sado Valley region, mussels and saffron or Algarvian prawns with fatty bacon, are some of Al Sud’s proposals.

Restaurant Pier by the sea

The seafood restaurant and brewery owned by the chef César Lourenço left the Santa Eulália area, where it had been for three years, to settle right in the centre of Albufeira. Seafood continues to have the chef’s quality guarantee, who offers the Super Onda de Marisco boards as suggestions. Highlights include the seafood rice, but also the Tuna Prego in caco bread from Cais ao Mar, the loin Picapau and the Pata Negra ham, at the starters.

Vale do lobo Ocean course

Vale do lobo Ocean course

We played yesterday at Vale do Lobo Ocean course on a hot day, but a sea breeze made it very pleasant.

We were 18 players of various nationalities, Portuguese, English, French, Swedish, Scottish and Irish, it is worth mentioning these last two nationalities.

The golf course was in perfect condition, with some greens that were fast and smooth but soft at the reception of the ball, a pleasure to play.

The course is long and has miscellaneous holes, the front nine being played in the north and west part of the resort and the back nine next to the Atlantic, which provides breath taking views and allows for some shots with the murmur of the sea in your ear. It is worth paying attention to the spectacular views on holes 11, 14 and 15. Very good.

The winner this day was Ian Godfrey with 38 points, followed by Fraser Graham with 33pt, and in 3rd 2 players with 30pt Jim Gillis and Peter Collins. Nearest the pin, on 13th, a narrow green well protected by deep bunkers was won by David Ziai, who placed the ball 3 meters from the flag.

We all return to our usual Restaurant in Vilamoura for some drinks and our free nibbles generously offered by João Filipe. Another day well spent.
