Today
A Vision Takes Shape
Construction of the first homes begins, laying the foundations for what would become one of Praia da Luz’s most desirable residential communities.
A Community Grows
Over the next 15 years, beautifully designed homes are completed and a vibrant international community takes shape.
The Final Chapter Begins
Phase Two is launched, introducing the final collection of premium ocean-view plots at Reserva da Luz.
Immediate Demand
The first plots are secured within weeks of launch, reaffirming the enduring appeal of this exceptional location.
A Rare Opportunity
Twenty-nine plots are sold in just three years, with discerning buyers recognising the scarcity of one of the Algarve’s last elevated coastal sites.
One of the Last Chances
Reserva da Luz represents the final opportunity to own a bespoke home within this established hillside community overlooking the Atlantic.
A rare opportunity to secure one of our final phase plots
Some places are bought finished. Reserva da Luz is bought as a beginning. Set among the cliffs and light of the Algarve’s Praia da Luz, each plot is yours to shape. This is where your story starts.

Frequently asked questions
The questions buyers ask us most often about owning a plot at Reserva da Luz.
-
Am I buying a plot or a finished house?
A plot. At Reserva da Luz you buy the land and build your own home on it, rather than purchasing a completed property. Each plot is sold with a defined plot area and construction area, both listed on the plot’s own page.
-
Can I use my own architect and builder?
Yes. You are free to bring your own architect, contractors and project team, and shape the house exactly as you wish. If you would prefer a more guided route, the developer’s turnkey service can take on as much of the work as you want it to.
-
What does the turnkey service include?
Support from design and planning through to construction and project management, with the level of involvement set by you. It draws on DDM’s 25 years of experience at developing property in Portugal, giving you a trusted team to manage the journey from plot to finished home.
-
How does the buying process work?
The buying process follows four key stages. You select your preferred plot, meet with our turnkey team to discuss your future home, sign the Promissory Contract of Purchase and Sale (CPCV) and complete the final deed. Once the purchase is complete, construction of your new home can begin, with our team overseeing the development through to completion.
-
What is a CPV?
Contrato de Promessa de Compra e Venda, the promissory contract used in Portuguese property purchases. Both parties sign it before completion, committing them to the sale on agreed terms. Completion itself happens later at the deed, or escritura, signed before a notary. The sales team will take you through the terms that apply to your plot.
-
Is this a brand new development?
No. Building at Reserva da Luz began in 2002 and homes were completed over the following fifteen years, so this is an established international community rather than a construction site. The plots in the current phase are the last ones remaining.
-
Where is Reserva da Luz?
Praia da Luz, Lagos, on the western Algarve coast of Portugal. The development sits above the Atlantic, surrounded by cliffs and sea, a short walk from the life of Praia da Luz itself. International schools, restaurants, gyms and world-class golf courses are all close by.
-
How many plots are left, and what do they cost?
Availability and prices change as plots sell, so the site is the place to check rather than a fixed list here. Every plot still available is shown on the site plan with its plot area, construction area and price.
-
How do I arrange a visit or ask a question?
Use the contact form on the site, or call or email the sales team directly using the details in the footer of any page.
