2 You can promote your own lifestyle by living here. Enjoy life - Simple. The launch of Barra Prime marks another chapter in the career of Tito Barra. With office located in Faro, Barra Prime offers a bespoke service in project management, real estate sales and property evaluation. It also works with respected local lawyers, architects and interior designers and offers additional rental and property consultancy services. As owner and director of Barra Prime, Tito has brought together a team of young Portuguese real estate professionals who all live and work in the Algarve s Golden Triangle an area that encompasses the exclusive resorts of Quinta do Lago, Vale do Lobo and nearby Vilamoura. Their specialist skills, technical expertise and thorough knowledge of the local market underpins Barra Prime s commitment in providing well-informed advice and the best possible solutions for its burgeoning clientele while fostering an informal, pro-active working relationship with each of them. Quite simply, the aim of the company is to ease the process of buying, selling, owning or renting a luxury residential property in Quinta do Lago. Meeting the individual needs of a client is one of Barra Prime s great strengths. The company s approach is relaxed and unhurried and based on mutual trust. This is our philosophy, states Tito, who adds that it s vital to project a reliable and efficient image. Barra Prime s property portfolio illustrates its relationship with the very top end of the Quinta do Lago real estate market. The villas listed in this brochure represent some of the most sought-after in the area. But Barra Prime also represents properties outside the Golden Triangle, near Estoi and Almancil for example, and lists a number of luxury apartments as an alternative to larger, more expansive homes. Property is a passion for Tito. Construction runs in the family. Fascinated at an early age by the building and assembly of infrastructure, the planning involved, materials used and the teamwork required in successfully creating a home, the young Tito was compelled to uphold the family tradition. Born in Faro, the regional capital, he first set foot in Quinta do Lago in It was a defining moment. Visiting the resort with his parents, he was immediately captivated by the verdant, meandering beauty of the pine-clad landscape and crystal blue lagoons of the Ria Formosa. Thus began an affinity with this idyllic and unspoiled part of the world that has endured ever since. Tito has worked in Quinta do Lago and its immediate vicinity for over 20 years. During that time he has been awarded a Masters Degree in Economics and Management at Lisbon s prestigious Universidade Lusíada, and more recently a degree in Property Valuation at ISEG-Instituto Superior de Economia e Gestão, also based in the Portuguese capital. It s this wealth of experience and unbridled enthusiasm for homes and houses that he brings to the fore at Barra Prime. Tito s reputation is based for the most part on personal recommendation. His clients tend to be friends of friends, and he acknowledges that word of mouth is one of the best ways to advertise the market and the area as a whole. People buy properties in Quinta do Lago to enjoy a particular way of life. They want to play golf, explore the Ria Formosa or just relax with family and friends. The air is clean and fresh and the Algarve hospitality is renowned. TITO MIGUEL F. BARRA 1

3 WELCOME to The Algarve Portugal Oslo The Algarve is Portugal s southern-most province and one of Europe s most popular holiday destinations. Blessed with a wonderfully agreeable climate and a stunning Atlantic coastline, this is a region full of character and contrast. Renowned for its superb beaches, magnificent golf courses and lively cosmopolitan resorts, the Algarve is also a land of unhurried charm, where a more conventional way of life prevails. A rich historical legacy is celebrated through a wealth of unique visitor attractions. Nature, in all her rare and delicate beauty, can be appreciated in the wide variety of wildlife found here. Outdoor pursuits prevail. Water sport is popular, and discovering the region by foot or on horseback is a favourite option. But playing the fairways remains the most enticing and challenging pastime. Drawing inspiration from the ocean and a proud seafaring tradition, Algarve gastronomy is also flavoured by a countryside culture unchanged for centuries. Staying here can be quiet and secluded or vibrant and energetic. But a relaxed atmosphere always prevails. And with Faro International Airport just two hours away from most European cities, this is a destination waiting to be explored, waiting to be discovered.

The very name speaks of a refined elegance and discerning lifestyle. This exclusive luxury residential and recreational estate occupies one of the most beautiful corners in the Algarve, and its position overlooking the Ria Formosa Natural Park and the Atlantic Ocean lend it a character that is at once captivating and quite beguiling. Quinta do Lago s highly regarded architectural signature combines the traditional with the contemporary, where homes of singular distinction blend into a verdant and carefully maintained landscape. Five of the region s most celebrated golf courses Quinta do Lago South, Quinta do Lago North, Laranjal, Pinheiro Altos and San Lorenzo lie within the estate. At the heart of the resort is Quinta Shopping, a handsome mall of chic boutiques, upmarket cafés and fine restaurants that draw a celebrity clientele. The Natural Park is the preserve of an astonishing variety of flora and fauna and this enchanting wetland habitat can be explored by following the resort s nature trails. Quinta do Lago is the quintessential European destination for those seeking a fashionable retreat in peaceful surroundings. 4 5

5 Vale do lobo Portugal Vale do Lobo is one of the most established and recognised luxury resorts in Portugal, and a preferred European golf destination. Set over an undulating pine-clad landscape that rolls gently down to the coast and a beautiful beach, the estate is hallmarked by a luxury residential real estate product designed around two outstanding golf courses The Royal Course and Ocean Course. Most properties enjoy superb frontline golf views, with the perspective further enhanced by a shimmering Atlantic Ocean. The resort is served by leisure and recreational facilities of the highest order. Fashionable bars and cafés complement restaurants truly international in flavour. Chic boutiques stock the latest designer wear. And the largest tennis academy in Portugal is situated here. A diverse calendar of social events and special occasions draws VIPs and celebrities from the worlds of sport and entertainment but the resort also welcomes couples and families, and children can take full advantage of a range of activities in a safe and secure environment. Lively and sophisticated but romantic too, Vale do Lobo remains a coveted year-round destination of singular appeal. Vilamoura Portugal Synonymous with golf, Vilamoura also boasts the largest marina facility in Portugal. A luxury haven for sailing and watersports enthusiasts, Vilamoura is firmly placed on the international yachting circuit and regularly hosts competitions, trials and regattas. The resort is also renowned for its excellent golf courses, with The Old Course, Victoria, Millennium, Laguna and Pinhal layouts numbering some of the most famous in the Algarve. Vilamoura is set within a protected nature reserve and holds numerous awards for its environmental initiatives, including a European Blue Flag for water quality. Its reputation as a first-class holiday destination is reflected in the number of five-star hotel properties located in and around the marina. The glamorous nightlife is among the most animated and engaging in the region, and visitor attractions include the celebrated casino, which hosts regular dance and musical shows. Lining the boardwalk is an eclectic choice of restaurants serving a delicious range of local and international cuisine. Stylish bars and nightclubs attract a young, fashionable crowd. The resort fronts a golden ribbon of sand and the warm, shallow waters offer a fantastic range of leisure and recreational activities. 6 7

6 Real estate Project management Project management Home building License property valuation Property rentals construction David Mendes Barra Prime delivers a first-rate project management service as part of its comprehensive product offer. Heading the company s technical team is Portuguese civil engineer David Mendes. As a project manager, his responsibilities at Barra Prime encompass every aspect of villa construction, from the initial meeting with the client to handover. The first thing I talk about with any client is the idea what they want, and how they want it constructed. This is very important. A face-to-face meeting at this early stage is also designed to instil trust and confidence. Transparency and synergy is vital if a successful working relationship is to be forged and the main goal is to work as a team to achieve the best result possible. With the client rarely having the opportunity to visit the site personally during the construction phase, David must be able to guarantee the project is completed on time, within budget and according to specifications. Legal requirements must also be fully understood and adhered to. Barra Prime s project manager speaks English, French and Spanish, and the company can provide fluent Russian and German translation, too. Realistic budgets are fixed through a dynamic programme of cost and control management, and progress is monitored on a daily basis. The next thing to establish is location, says David. Naturally, plot size will determine build size. The client must then indicate the style and character of the property required. Once all this is achieved we can start translating the con- cept into a reality. As a rule, the building process takes anywhere between a year and eighteen months to complete. The Quinta do Lago estate is now almost fully mature in terms of development. New build, especially in prime locations, is rare. But there are alternatives. Existing villas can be refurbished or in some cases completely demolished to create a new blueprint. As far as infrastructure is concerned, nothing is impossible, remarks David, who has 14 years experience as a fully qualified civil engineer. In fact, these days the trend is to demolish and build again from scratch. This option has its advantages, he points out. Construction technology has advanced rapidly over the past twenty years or so, especially with regards to energy efficiency and automation. So we can bring a property right up to date. In some cases, renovation is enough to realise a perfect balance between costs, improvement of comfort and clients expectations. Whatever is required, David and his team will provide professional advice and technical expertise throughout. It s a challenging career with a lot of responsibility, admits Barra Prime s project manager. You need patience and persistence. But most of all you need to be flexible. That is the key. interior design as far as infrastructure i s c o n c e r n e d, nothing is i m p o s s i b l e Villa Moinho Number ONE - quinta do lago Number fifty - quinta do lago Vale do lobo 1104 Restaurant parrilla natural 8 9
