Algarve Villa Holidays - The Resort of Monte da Quinta

Set deep in the heart of Quinta do Lago is the exclusive private members club of Monte da Quinta. This premier development affords a level of service and facilities, unmatched anywhere in Europe. Every care has been taken to ensure that the superbly appointed accommodations, set amid beautifully landscaped gardens, blend with and compliment the surrounding countryside.

Part of Quinta do Lago and internationally renowned as one of Portugal's finest residential and leisure developments, the area consists of high quality residential accommodation designed in a mix of architectural styles. Surrounded by well-tended trees and shrubs and perfectly manicured lawns each property benefits from its own private pool.

Variously described as “heaven on earth” and “a lovely quiet resort” in which to have “a very enjoyable family holiday”, the management and staff of Monte da Quinta pride themselves on their attention to detail and their level of customer service. They are acutely aware that those who choose to holiday here do so, on recommendation and on the strength of their memories and experiences from previous visits. They know that it is only through maintaining these high standards that they can expect to welcome their guests again.

Monte da Quinta is a relaxed and comfortable environment, offering a peaceful haven to those requiring nothing but the highest standards of holiday accommodation. The “club” is uniquely located, right at the heart of the Algarve’s prestigious Quinta do Lago and within easy access of many award winning golf courses including, Pinheiros Altos, Quinta do Lago North & South and The Ocean and Royal courses of Vale do Lobo. With year round sun, the golf season never ends at this exclusive resort. Temperatures never fall much below 15º even in winter, making 18 holes at any of the 25 or so local courses, a very real pleasure.

Central to the Monte da Quinta development is the MQ Clubhouse. Here you’ll find The Quinta Cafe and The Quinta Restaurant. Both serve excellent food and are beautifully positioned, overlooking a large private swimming pool and health spa. This entirely self contained development also offers “Quinta shopping”. Here you’ll find a newsagent, a souvenir shop and an Italian trattoria together with a health and beauty clinic.

An added attraction and a real joy is the Quinta club yacht. Available for half or full day bookings, this luxurious craft trips up and down the beautiful Algarvean coastline, treating you to some quite wonderful scenery as you enjoy lunch and drinks onboard.

Monte da Quinta, in the heart of Quinta do Lago, is Portugal’s principal holiday destination and probably the finest residential, holiday and leisure development in Europe. Sandwiched between the Atlantic Ocean and the Ria Formosa estuary, an area of outstanding natural beauty, it is located just a short drive from Faro International Airport and therefore, just a few hours from most European capitals.

More than just a golf resort – come to Vale do Lobo Algarve for sun, sea and sandcastles

Vale do Lobo in the Algarve is much more than just a golf resort. It has developed over the years and now forms one of the principal tourist and holidaying destinations on the coast of the Algarve, catering for families and groups of friends and yes, the odd golfer too. Situated just 20 minutes from Faro International Airport, and with direct flights from most European cities, Vale do Lobo is a convenient and luxurious holiday destination.

One of the main attractions to this part of the Algarve is of course, the magnificent golfing facilities on offer and the many championship standard courses. However, now virtually a town in its own right, the area known as The Vale do Lobo, has plenty of other things to offer too including a vast array of entertainments, shops, restaurants and sporting activities.

If its activity you’re after then you may wish to hire bikes and take yourselves off cycling or perhaps go horse riding in the rich, unspoilt greenery offered by the local countryside. If all that sounds too much like hard work, you can always relax on the long sandy beach or lie around on sun beds by the pool, peacefully unwinding as you soak up the sun.

The first development of its kind, ever to be established on the Algarve, Vale do Lobo has undergone numerous improvements and facelifts over the years to keep pace with the latest trends and to keep the resort in tiptop condition. Redevelopment continues today but it is strictly monitored to ensure that nothing is done to adversely affect the scenery or its landscape. The authorities are very keen to avoid over developing the area as they have seen the effect this has had on other resort locations.

The building of high-rise developments above 3 storeys has been stopped and beachfront development is now very restricted, all of which is aimed at maintaining the very high standards that the area has become internationally famous for.
We have many holiday villas to rent in Vale do Lobo, all within very easy reach of the extensive range of sporting and leisure facilities as well as the beautiful, two kilometre stretch of golden-sanded beach which lines the coast.
