Two stunning, co-located branded residences in the Algarve are setting the tone for 2026 with a “live well” concept that spans property, wellness, lifestyle, location, service and community.
The branded residences concept is proving to be a hit with international property buyers. Savills reports a 19% growth expectation for global branded residences during 2025, with the segment “experiencing one of its most dynamic periods ever.” Future prospects are also strong, with Savills anticipating the number of global branded residence developments will grow from 910 in 2025 to 1,747 by 2032.
Surrounded by the idyllic beauty of the Salgados Lagoon Nature Reserve, Salgados Golf Course and Salgados Beach, the Marriott Residences Algarve Salgados and The Residences at The Westin Salgados Beach Resort illustrate why branded residences are generating such demand.
The homes are perfectly located for benefitting from the Algarve’s 300+ days of annual sunshine, while the stunning location is complemented by the outstanding quality for which both the Marriott and Westin brands are so well known.
Premium on-site facilities include swimming pools, spas and the emerald-green fairways of an 18-hole golf course. The Marriott Residences Algarve Salgados has the added bonus of a gym, while The Residences at The Westin Salgados Beach Resort has an on-site fitness and wellness centre.
The wealth of facilities, complemented by sea swimming, beach sports and coastal walks, make it easy for each buyer to find their own balance of physical fitness, wellbeing and relaxation activities – all backed by exceptional service from friendly and helpful concierge, reception and maintenance teams.
With sociability and community playing an important role in holistic wellness, the residences also benefit from on-site restaurants. The light-filled venues, surrounded by greenery, are the perfect spot to pause and unwind in good company, relaxing away from the stresses of daily life. A kids club means that the youngest visitors also have plenty of opportunity to socialise and enjoy new experiences, while their adults have time to recharge and refresh.
The properties themselves elevate the living well concept even further. Spacious layouts with large windows and comfortable, on-brand furnishings create an immediate sense of welcome and home. Well under an hour’s drive from Faro International Airport, the elegant properties are easily accessible via direct flights from a wide range of global destinations.
Alda Filipe, Regional Director and Partner at Kronos Homes, which is managing the sale of these branded residences, explains: “2026 is the year to focus on living well – in all its forms. The co-located Marriott Residences Algarve Salgados and The Residences at The Westin Salgados Beach Resort make this easy to achieve. Buyers can enjoy a seamless purchase process and the opportunity to use their property immediately. Ideal as primary residences, second homes and investments, these homes raise the bar when it comes to real estate designed to support living well.”
