Daniel Luzio - Construction Project Management

A recent public meeting at the Camara of Caldas da Rainha, confirmed and discussed the new Silver Coast golf course, which will be located close to Atlantic, just south of São Martinho do Porto.

This development has been planned for several years, but local construction and project management companies had been waiting for confirmation of the development of the site.

The exact location is on the Atlantic Coast, between Serra do Bouro and Foz do Arelho and will include a resort, homes and services for over four thousand people. When completed it will present a serious challenge to Praia del Rey, as it will also boast a five star hotel and spa resort. Just another reason why the Silver Coast is such a great place to invest in a property!

Over the past twenty years we have seen a steady increase in the number of eco friendly houses constructed on the Silver Coast, however, they are still quite out of the ordinary. Families and investors wanting to build on the Silver Coast are strongly advised to use part of their budget for a quality project management company. In the long run this can not only take the stress out of the building work, but also ensure that you have a property that meets and possibly exceeds your expectations. Eco-friendly houses are still a relatively new concept in Portugal, which is why, it is always important to have a Portuguese project management company, who can help source the materials and techniques that may be required for your build.

The changes to planning applications means that all new builds must submit, in addition to the usual specialities, detailed plans that show how the house uses and conserves energy. An excellent step forward for the good of the planet!

For many years Portugal has been seen as a great holiday destination, but with recent investment reports highlighting the Silver Coast as one of the best places to buy in Europe, you can guarantee that you will find something to interest you here, whether you are looking for that dream holiday home or a long term investment.

Every year Portugal receives over ten million visitors, of which about 25% are British. An increasing number of these visitors are buying a property in Portugal, or using construction and project management companies to build dream homes to their own specifications and budget. With experts like us to guide you, this experience can be both exciting and fulfilling.

The continued interest of visitors to the Silver Coast ensures that renting out your holiday home should you wish is always an option, whether your property is in the popular golf resort of Praia del Rey, or situated in a more remote location between Nazare and Figueira da Foz.

The past week we have been enjoying some wonderful weather on the Silver Coast. From Ericeira to Nazare, holiday makers and locals alike have been making the most of the very warm sunshine for some al fresco dining and days on the beach.

The well known golf courses in the area at Praia del Rey and Rio Maior's Golden Eagle, have been extremely busy, with lots of visitors from not just the UK, but from northern Europe and Ireland too.

Good weather is not unusual at the beginning of November, indeed this phenomenon is known here in Portugal as Verao de Sao Martinho, (St. Martin's Summer) as the timing of the extra warm and sunny days coincide with St. Martin's saint day on November 11th.

Work will starting shortly on the spectacular Falesia del Rey golf course on the Silver Coast. With the detailed planning stage almost complete the Beltico Group will soon be at work developing this exclusive 230 hectare site. This special project has already been granted Project of National Importance status and golfers from far and wide are already looking forward to playing what will be an exceptional course set in a top class resort.

Falesia del Rey will consist of 475 luxury properties set around the golf course, a five star contemporary hotel overlooking the sea and also a boutique hotel with spa. The design of the resort is the responsibility of award winning architect, Mario Sua Kay.

The dramatic scenery of rolling pine hills and white sandy beaches will provide an excellent back drop for both golfers and holiday makers alike and bring another prestigious course to the Silver Coast which already boasts a plethora of excellent courses, including Praia del Rey, one of the best courses in Portugal, if not the top links course.
