THE ALGARVE
BEST FOR WORLD-CLASS RESTAURANTS AND GOLF
O
nly 30 minutes from Faro Airport and just outside Albufeira (one of
holidaylettings.co.uk’s top
four requested areas, with inquiries up this year), the Pine Cliff s resort (pinecliff
s.com) is a gourmand’s delight. You don’t have to shiſt far from your home, as there are plenty of eateries onsite. Fresh seafood is on tap at the aptly named
T e Fisherman, meat-lovers can go all caveman at the gourmet Piri Piri Steak House, and MasterChef geeks can wend their way through the fi ve-course cuisine menu, with regional wine pairings, at Yakuza by Olivier, with mash-up Japanese/ Mediterranean fusion. When a glass of Port or local almond
Amarguinha liqueur is required to celebrate hitting the ball 198 metres over the ravine on the championship Devil’s Parlour tee, golfers head for the Portulano Lobby Bar. Golf widows — and widowers — are found at the Mirador Champagne Bar, with a fl ute
of bubbly in hand aſt er chilling in the spa. While we’re in the realms of fantasy, why
not emulate Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio in T e Great Gatsby and consider an opulent Art Deco home? E3 Property is putting the fi nishing touches
to 24 apartments and 48 villas priced from £2.1 million at T e Keys (thekeysatquinta. com) on one of the last development sites on the upmarket golf estate Quinta do Lago. Along with Art Deco style, there are also
homes based on high-ceilinged Hollywood Regency neoclassical designs and infl uences from the 1940s. Owners of villas and apartments can enjoy
room service, property management, maid service, childcare and airport transfers, as well as high-end golf on both the established North and South courses. T e cuisine is top-notch at the Portuguese
eaterie Casa do Lago, the Mediterranean- style Gusto by Heinz Beck (ranked number one in the area) and at the international restaurant Gigi.
The Keys, from £2.1 million Dream homes Gatsby-style at the chic Quinta do Lago, with glamorous roof terraces and opulent pools. (
