From start to finish, Vilamoura was designed as a master planned community. Located in the Algarve region of Portugal, Vilamoura is a unique area which caters to residents as well as tourists. It offers only the best of everything, ranging from accommodations to restaurants and recreation. In case you need more to convince you, the following ten excellent reasons to purchase Vilamoura property should help influence your decision in favor of this unique community.

Planned Community: Ideally located in the heart of the Algarve tourist region, Vilamoura rests between the large cities of Albufeira and Faro, west of the Faro International Airport. This master planned community is designed to be a self-sufficient community with all amenities one could want. Purchasing property in Vilamoura ensures that you're part of this community and you have a variety of services and business to fulfill every need.

Sports and Recreation: Both tourists and residents of Vilamoura are offered a wealth of recreational activities. Located very near five world-class golf courses and a Golf Academy, golfers who want to improve their game will certainly have ample opportunity. Vilamoura also offers facilities for equestrian sports, shooting, lawn bowling and other outdoor activities. Various water sports are also at hand, ranging from surfing to fishing, but also including everything in between. For those who wish to enjoy a slower pace, a variety of restaurants, shopping opportunities, casinos and nightlife venues are also available. There really is no need to ever leave the community when you purchase property in Vilamoura.

Purchase Property to Let: The decision to buy Vilamoura property with the intention to let is a decision made by many people as there is always a demand for short term accommodation. Outstanding management companies will make sure your property is always well maintained even if you are somewhere other than Portugal. In addition, because the area is such a popular tourist destination, your Vilamoura Villa or apartments say, will not stand vacant for long.

The Old Village: An attraction in itself, property in the Old Village area of Vilamoura is in constant demand and those who choose to buy property in the Old Village are going to find that their property is an attractive option to renters and other buyers. The Old Village is a quaint older area inside Vilamoura, complete with their own swimming pools and laid back community feel. More like up-scale vintage Portugal, this area is truly unique.

A Large, Active Marina: The marina is able to berth more than 1,000 boats of all sizes and serves as the area's focal point of activity. Many people enjoy walking or rollerblading along the boardwalk in front of the marina, and this has become a popular evening activity. For people who decide to sit while people watching, the marina area offers a wide assortment of nearby bars and restaurants.

Beaches: Vilamoura is home to several beaches which are easily accessible from all points inside Vilamoura. Some of the beaches are equipped with sunlounges, and during the peak season the beaches have lifeguards as well as warning flags to ensure a safe swimming experience.

Economy: Those who purchase property in Vilamoura do so in a very sound economic environment. The area is upper class and kept in pristine condition, and the still growing area of the Algarve means that property values are not likely to decline any time soon. The government of Portugal is also doing much to encourage the continued popularity of the Algarve region and property is still very much in demand.

Stress-Free Lifestyle: A holiday-like atmosphere pervades Vilamoura and friendly, relaxed people who live and work in the area. The biggest decisions seem to involve how to best spend an afternoon in the sun, and stress appears to be a thing of the past.

Climate: Due to its location, purchasing property in Vilamoura ensures great weather all year around. Each day is filled with twelve hours of sunshine, and the temperature is never too hot or too cold. Refreshing breezes blow in from the ocean scenting the air with salt but they also serve to keep the weather cool. The weather in Vilamoura is a revitalizing change to those who come from the cool and damp of north-western Europe, or the icy winters of the far north.

Good Transportation: Vilamoura was constructed in a manner that ensured the existence of a master infrastructure that provides easy access within and around the area. Many areas prohibit private cars, but transportation is provided by bus, shuttle and land and water taxi, allowing easy access to all parts of the community.

Purchasing property in Vilamoura is a sound economic decision, but it also allows you to buy into the relaxed lifestyle of one of Europe's most distinctive communities. Vilamoura is definitely Portuguese but it is also an entirely cosmopolitan community. It offers its owners and visitors a very special place to live or stay while they are in the region.
