News > Fine & Country Algarve celebrates 10 years in business Fine & Country Algarve marked a decade of success on 29 September 2023, with a lively celebration at their newly renovated Carvoeiro office in Portugal. Guests, including Emilie Despois, Fine & Country’s Head of Marketing, who travelled from London to join the festivities, enjoyed canapés and bubbly as they commemorated the milestone. Over the past 10 years, Managing Partner Zoie Hawker and Director Bruce Hawker have expanded the agency’s presence, opening three offices, in Carvoeiro, Almancil and Tavira. Their diverse property portfolio ranges from €10,000,000 villas with private vineyards to stunning sea-view apartments, traditional quintas and golf course real-estate developments. Fine & Country Algarve is dedicated to connecting clients with their dream properties. Reflecting on the journey, Zoie expressed her pride in the agency’s growth and international brand affiliation. She credited steady expansion and support from Fine & Country’s London Head Office and extended gratitude to business partner Richard Lamberth and her dedicated team. The Algarve agency continues to promote the region globally under the Fine & Country banner. For more information about buying property in the Algarve, contact algarve@fineandcountry.com
> New regulations for Valencia estate agents Starting 16 October 2023, all estate agents in the Valencian Community must be registered in the Register of Real Estate Agents. This new regulation affects the provinces of Alicante, Castellón and Valencia and is set to elevate industry standards by demanding higher expertise, commitment and responsibility in regional property transactions. Spain has lacked regulation in the property sector, with a lack of controls, and limited training, certification or registration for agents. Several Spanish regions, including Andalusia, the Canary Islands, Madrid and Murcia, have professional registries, though not yet enforced. However, the Valencian Community has proceeded with an obligatory registry of real-estate brokers/agents, ensuring agents meet specific guarantees, obligations and conditions, including training and civil liability. This legislation favours reputable agencies with integrity, and will enhance service quality and client protection. Fine & Country Costa Blanca North complies with the new regulation and is a member of APIAL (Asociacion de Agentes de la Propiedad Inmobiliaria y Agentes Inmobiliarios de la Provincia de Alicante). This membership requires qualifications, civil responsibility insurance, extensive experience, proper registration and a clean criminal record. Being registered in Comunidad Valenciana and part of APIAL ensures maximum confidence in their operations.

> 60 years of Sotogrande: A legacy of luxury Sotogrande, one of Europe’s premier golf, residential and lifestyle destinations, celebrated its diamond anniversary this year, with a special calendar of events that celebrates everything that has made the destination so revered over the past 60 years. Located in the Andalusian region of southern Spain, Sotogrande is a picturesque area known for its breathtaking setting and rich cultural history. Founded in the 1960s by Joseph McMicking, the idea was to create a similar community to the exclusive Forbes Park development in his hometown, Manila. Unspoiled beaches and access to airports were important, and this area of the Cadiz province was a perfect fit. Inspired by the beauty of the Andalusian coastline, he saw the potential to create a resort that would offer the perfect blend of scenic views, exceptional facilities and an exclusive lifestyle. Since its inception, Sotogrande has become one of the most elite destinations in Europe, attracting visitors from all over the world. Fine & Country Sotogrande licensee Carlos is also celebrating, with 20 years in estate agency in Spain this year. When he is not helping people find and move into their dream property, he is on the basketball court competing in the Provincial Senior Centurias de San Roque, but he plays down his sporting prowess, focusing instead on the success of Fine & Country Sotogrande. To find out more about luxury properties with this development, contact Fine & Country on sotogrande@finenandcountry.com
> Shhh… it’s discreet marketing
> Global luxury exposure Fine & Country has launched a new advertising campaign on global luxury website JamesEdition. JamesEdition is a leading online marketplace for luxury real estate, cars, yachts and jets in 120 countries, providing a singular destination for the international, ultra high-end enthusiast. JamesEdition attracts high-end buyers around the world, working with some of the most prominent brands in luxury. The business continuously evaluates and hand selects the brands they are working with to ensure their users only see the best of the best. Some of the brands they work with include Porsche, Rolex, Breitling, Aston Martin, Ducati and Sunseeker, to name but a few. This is the ideal platform for Fine & Country to gain additional exposure for our customers’ properties on an international level.
> Fine & Country Foundation breaks through £850,000 ceiling In 2023, the running total raised by The Fine & Country Foundation since its inception reached over £850,000 – an incredible milestone, which has only been possible through the generosity of the Fine & Country network and their fundraising efforts. Whether it be wading through mud during a Tough Mudder, sleeping rough or swimming the English Channel, there have been many inspiring challenges and events that have helped raise funding for the Foundation during 2023.
The Fine & Country brand has now launched a discreet marketing feature on its website. Working with premium properties in the upper quartile of the market, we know privacy means a lot to people, especially when it comes to their home and refuge.
Funding raised this year has enabled the Foundation to support many amazing charitable organisations through the Spring and Autumn Grant Scheme Programmes, as well as direct donations to efforts such as the Turkey–Syria earthquake appeal.
With the new feature, property listings will appear on the Fine & Country website with minimum details, automatically blurring the images of the property. For interested visitors to gain more information about the property, they will be required to register their contact details, rather than being taken directly to a property page. This way the property can be exposed to our global audience without leaving the homeowners feeling exposed.
Grants are issued in spring and autumn, with offices worldwide encouraged to submit applications nominating a charity of their choice to receive a donation of up to £3,000. The financial assistance provided to these charities supplies much-needed funds so the charities can continue their vital work within their communities.
To find out more about marketing your home discreetly, contact your local Fine & Country agent.

hen I alight from the train and step onto the platform at Cannes station, I’m greeted by the welcome sight of a smartly dressed gent holding a sign with my name. A few short minutes later, I’m in the back seat of a polished and spotless Mercedes, sipping the water so thoughtfully provided as I’m swept through the narrow streets and multi-laned artery, eventually turning onto the seafront and the driveway of the most opulent hotel I’ve ever had the fortune to witness. Facing the Mediterranean, the cream-coloured façade is instantly recognisable. The subject of more than 6,000 photos each day during the Cannes Film Festival, this protected historical monument is said to be the most photographed hotel in the world. The Carlton was the first luxury hotel to open in Cannes in 1913, and more than a century later, it continues to stand as a symbol of the Belle Époque Riviera. It has recently come out of a major renovation programme to reclaim its place as the most luxurious hotel in the town and a favourite of wealthy visitors and the great and the good of Hollywood during the annual film festival.

My suite is simply perfect. On the corner with a spacious, wrap-around balcony, the view across La Croisette opens up to the Rade de Cannes, dotted with pleasure yachts and two mega cruise ships swimming in crystalclear Cote d’Azur waters. The comfortable lounge feeds into a luxe bedroom, with a bed so big and duvet so soft it makes me want to sleep for my entire stay. I resist the temptation. The sun is out, and I don’t want to waste any time. It’s out of season, so the promenade is quiet until I reach the Vieux Port, where a Riva Aquarama welcomes visitors to the annual Cannes Yachting Festival. The marina is crammed full of the kind of toys that would make the average tech billionaire salivate. I pass the glitz of the marina and climb the steep and winding road up Le Suquet to the Musée de la Castre. The former castle is now a museum dedicated to the collection of the Dutch Baron Lycklama, who donated his ethnographic collection in 1877. The highlight is the masks and headdresses from Nepal, Tibet and India, but there are also spears, daggers and statues from Alaska and Latin America, and a sarcophagus from Egypt. My legs still feel fresh, so I climb the steps of the Tour Suquet to enjoy the most stunning views across the bright-blue bay of the Cote d’Azur and the rolling hills bordering the town. Cannes is known for glitz and glamour, but this is also a normal town with normal people doing normal things. I walk down the hill, through the winding, shaded streets decked out with tables and chairs ready for the midday rush and find my way to the Marché Forville. This covered market is a blessed cornucopia of fresh produce and local products, far from the polished affluence of the luxury brands on the promenade. It takes a long time to decide which of the numerous food stalls I should visit ➤➤

for lunch, but the scents coming from Ta’im stop me in my tracks. I order the arayes, a Lebanese pita stuffed with beef, fried crispy and served with two dips. It’s simple yet full of flavour, a perfect lunch for a long day of exploring. The streets are narrow, but quickly open out as the cafés make way for boutiques for moneyed visitors. The luxury brands sit well with the 19th-century elegance, and despite being out of season, the locals are providing plenty of business. Strolling the streets, I notice a sign marking the spot where Napoleon passed on his way to exile on Elba, reminding me of the history that dwells here. It’s a warm day, and the promenade has filled up with locals and tourists enjoying the last few days of sunshine. The fleet of yachts from the two marinas is out in force, but none are a match for the luxury liners still anchored, waiting for their passengers to come back from shore. I decide against sunning myself on the sand or sitting on a veranda drinking a cold beer. My room is too much of a draw to stay away from. For the afternoon, I park myself on the oversized sofa, taking a moment for myself before a delicious dinner on the hotel veranda, the warm night air swirling with a gentle sea breeze. Cannes is well-placed for excursions. Nice is only half an hour by train, Monaco an hour, and Menton a few minutes beyond. It’s easy to use Cannes as a base to

n the face of global economic shifts, the realm of golf real-estate development is undergoing a transformation. Developers are being challenged to weave sustainable solutions into the fabric of their projects, catering to the growing demand for eco-conscious communities and energy-efficient homes. Here, we look at how three of European Tour Destinations’ leading venues are addressing this and maintaining appeal for global investors via sustainable real-estate developments. Optimism in the Golf Real-Estate Market Amidst economic uncertainty, there is a notable surge of optimism within the golf real-estate sector. Sustainabilityfocused real-estate solutions being achieved by golfing venues in the European Tour Destinations network ensure the venues have a positive impact on not only residents and visitors, but also local communities and the environment, both now and in the future.
European Tour Destinations provides a framework for venues that sit in unique locations with their own individual economic and environmental constraints to come together and learn from each other’s best practices. This team effort and shared learning is proving immensely beneficial. The network’s emphasis on environmental and economic sustainability, coupled with digital technology integration, is setting a new standard in property infrastructure. Additionally, by fostering vibrant communities and targeting younger property buyers, European Tour Destinations is carving a path towards a more sustainable and inclusive future. Pirin Golf & Country Club, Bulgaria: A Blueprint for Efficiency In Bulgaria’s Pirin Golf & Country Club, innovative construction methods have emerged as a solution to the global supply chain disruptions that are impacting property development. The club has embraced Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), a practice that entails manufacturing significant portions of a building in a factory setting and then assembling them on-site. This reduces material waste, aids in sidestepping supply issues, and for Pirin Golf & Country Club, it is yielding more sustainable and highquality housing. The MMC method has allowed the club to avoid many of the challenges related to accessing raw building materials, resulting in shorter build lead times. MMC projects at Pirin Golf & Country Club generally range in duration from six months to a year, depending on client specifications,

offering a highly efficient alternative to traditional construction methods. Additional benefits delivered by MMC include the less intrusive nature of construction, alleviating any inconvenience for club members and golf clientele. There is a growing understanding by lenders that MMC builds meet the same regulations, codes and guidelines as traditionally built homes and so finance for such projects is becoming easier to obtain. Demand for Pirin Golf & Country Club’s pre-fabricated, modular-built wooden constructions has been steadily growing. The resort is building 17 chalets, adding to the 24 units sold in the last 12 months or so. This level of interest has spurred on the development of larger Eco Chalets that will be built solely from locally sourced materials, underlining the resort’s commitment to a more sustainable future. Quinta do Lago, Portugal: A Community for Life Quinta do Lago has a long and successful history as one of Europe’s premier real-estate investment opportunities – the Portuguese resort celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2022. In that time, it has grown into more than a sunny golf getaway. Underpinned by continuous investments and cutting-edge enhancements, Quinta do Lago has expanded into a community of property buyers who adhere to certain beliefs and values, and desire a particular lifestyle, made all the more possible with increased opportunities for remote working.
16
Quinta do Lago’s commitment to investment and the addition of new facilities has made the resort a year-round destination with a sense of community at its heart. The continued investment in its golf offering – including a €7 million sustainability-focused upgrade to its South Course and recent renovation of its clubhouse – has helped Quinta do Lago retain its reputation as one of the top golf resorts in Continental Europe. Along with redeveloping the resort’s three championship golf courses, other endeavours have expanded beyond golf, with a focus on culinary experiences, wellness facilities and a state-of-the-art sports complex. The Campus is a highperformance sports centre for athletes and professional sportspeople, as well as a health club for residents, who can become members of the facility. This essentially means it has become a new social hub for the resort.

Costa Navarino, Greece: A Blueprint for Sustainable Development Spanning 1,000 hectares across five distinct sites, Costa Navarino – recently voted Continental Europe’s #1 Golf Resort – is leading the way in creating a truly sustainable development. This award-winning resort sets a new standard for eco-conscious real estate. Costa Navarino Residences are defined by the destination’s overarching sustainability philosophy, which is detailed in the development plan of each property, outlining a clear framework and key guidelines developers must adhere to for every build. During the planning stage, every villa has a sun, temperature and wind study done on it to ensure it is optimally positioned to create its own efficient microclimate to help reduce energy needs. The architecture embraces bioclimatic principles, incorporating elements like shaded areas and innovative landscaping to reduce the need for artificial climate control. The integration of heat pumps and energyefficient windows further maximises efficiency. The planted roofs - of which the resort has more than 5,000m2 at Navarino Dunes - are a rather unique feature, offering additional structural insulation, while creating individual microclimates for and around each building. The flora is all local to negate irrigation impacts. All materials used to build each property are regionally sourced too, including local stone and wood to minimise impact and support the resort’s sustainability ethos that transcends throughout the destination. Costa Navarino

also pays close attention to the environmental impact of construction, employing regionally sourced materials and minimising earth movement to conserve energy. A Sustainable Golf Future Beckons As the global landscape shifts towards a more sustainable future, it is interesting to see golf real-estate developments at the forefront of change. Through visionary practices in construction, community-building and environmental consciousness, venues like Pirin Golf & Country Club, Quinta do Lago and Costa Navarino are revolutionising the market and paving the way for a more promising, ecofriendly tomorrow. n

ou’d be forgiven for not knowing much about Hamilton Island. Although it’s the largest inhabited island in Australia’s Whitsundays, an archipelago of 74 scenic islands that make up just one part of the Great Barrier Reef, it’s still only 3 miles long by 2 miles wide. Only 30% of the island is developed – and it’s car-free, with visitors trundling around in golf carts. It may sound like something from Hollywood – and in terms of natural beauty, it looks like it has dropped straight from a movie – but luxuryseekers know there’s more to the island than this. Along with the golden-sand beaches, turquoise waters, hiking trails offering spectacular coastal views, and the proximity to the Great Barrier Reef, there’s qualia. Meaning “a collection of deeper sensory experiences”, qualia’s distinctive Australian style, combined with its sun-drenched location and exceptional service levels, makes it the ultimate in world-class island resort luxe. This is a special place, where everything has been meticulously considered, to relax the mind and indulge the senses. Located on the secluded, northernmost tip of Hamilton Island, qualia features 60 elegant, private pavilions, nestled amidst 30 acres of lush, tropical landscaped gardens and natural Australian bushland. Some pavilions are positioned for sunrise, others for sunset, but each is a thing of beauty, a haven that feels far from everyday life. Whatever relaxation looks like for you, qualia provides. Sink into a lounge chair in Long Pavilion to soak up sunset views, seek bliss in spa qualia, take a scenic flight over Heart Reef, sail to Whitehaven Beach, or indulge in a food and wine signature experience, the choice is yours. Consider Hamilton Island your oyster, and qualia is its pearl. For more information visit www.qualia.com.au

There’s no place like a home away from home Interiors have become increasingly important in holiday rental properties. A holiday rental home is no longer a space to house your old leather sofa or your aunt’s hand-me-down walnut dining table. Here’s how to up the game when it comes to your holiday property.

T
hese days, guests book a rental property for more than just a place to lay their head. They want to experience beautiful interiors and well-thoughtout décor. They want to escape the ordinary and enjoy living in a property that is different to their own. They are seeking a memorable experience. The wow factor is what transforms a mere shelter into a haven of relaxation, adventure and luxury. So, how can you infuse your second home with the wow factor? Stunning Design Large, statement artworks, patterned soft furnishings, vibrant headboards; these can all be memorable, tasteful features in a holiday stay. They are not necessarily a look that guests would have in their own home and for that reason, they can be inspirational. A guest may not be ready to try a deep navy on their living room walls at home, but they might be impressed by it in a temporary abode. They will notice a holiday home that is listed on a website showing photos with bold colours teamed with a curated art collection and seek to book an escape from their everyday life. Investing in a stylish and comfortable design that reflects the location and atmosphere of your holiday property can make a difference. Be bold, with unique features or local touches that make it stand out. Remember, your guests are coming for a few days of escape into a fantasy world.

Cleverly Thought Out Furniture for holiday rentals should be chosen for its durability, as well as its look. When selecting beds, comfort is key – a guest will never rebook if the beds don’t offer perfect rest. When sourcing other furniture, it’s essential that it is resilient but also looks glamorous. Consider the location of the property, its history and its
character before deciding on a bespoke interior design to suit your holiday rental. We know that the financial goal for most owners of second homes is full occupancy throughout the main season. This is far more achievable through presenting beautifully styled homes that guests are excited to book. High-Quality Amenities One of the cornerstones of creating the wow factor in your holiday property is the provision of high-quality amenities. These are the features and services that make your property not just a place to stay but a place in which to relax, and feel pampered. Providing these amenities, from high-quality linens and toiletries to modern appliances and smart technology, can give your property the edge. Your guests want to feel excited about their stay and be confident they will have everything they need while they are there. Just remember, the wow factor in your holiday property can turn one-time renters into loyal guests who return year after year. By focusing on design, comfort, amenities and personalisation, you can create an unforgettable experience that leaves your guests eager to share their extraordinary holiday memories. It’s not just a place to stay; it’s a place to make lasting memories. n For more information, see fineandcountry.co.uk/services/ property-staging-and-styling and for a complimentary staging consultation on your first, second or third home, contact propertystaging@fineandcountry.com

The LOOK Truly Bespoke
The Bell Coat is crafted from a gorgeously soft, light, pure-wool herringbone fabric, with the very fine fabric having a superb hold and drape. The stunning coat is perfect for autumn, leading into winter. It is fully lined in a mid-blue silk, with a dark-navy contrast edging. The Bell Coat has subtle pleats at the shoulders, a gentle A-line shape and a magnificent swing. Wearable for all shapes and sizes, the Bell is particularly flattering on apple and pear shapes. It has two slanted pockets to the front, generous bracelet length sleeves, and falls to mid-low calf length. It is designed to be worn open, with the two front panels meeting, but not overlapping. As there is only a short bolt of this deadstock fabric available, only six coats will be made to order, making this a wonderfully rare wardrobe item. £950 www.ednerat.com
