Chairman of the Imocom Group, Alejandro Martins, comments: "The Palace is set to become one of the most sought after addresses in Europe, taking Algarve living to a whole new level of international opulence. Unsurpassed services will be provided within the privacy, security and comfort of a personal home. The idyllic location of the Algarve is the ultimate setting”

Each property will feature its own terrace Jacuzzi, Italian marble flooring, fully fitted kitchens with Bulthaup units, home entertainment system, underfloor heating, aircon, video phone entry, indoor electric shuttering, central vacuum system and two underground car-parking spaces.

“From what I have seen it is clearly an investment that matches my image: a resort unique in Portugal which will give my family and me the guarantee of holidays with quality and security. This is without doubt an excellent investment and a great bet.”
