10 LAGOS History This nearby historic town was an important point of arrival and departure for ocean voyages when the Portuguese navigators started to discover the new world in the XV century, establishing several colonies in America, Africa and Asia. That legacy is still present, and Lagos is now more popular than ever as a destination for visitors, particularly since the construction of the A22 motorway in 2009, connecting the city with Faro s airport in less than one hour. Statistics Lagos has an area of 213 km 2 (82 mi 2 ). The population is more than 30,000, with a high percentage [20-30%] of foreign residents. Authenticity Its location at the western end of the Algarve has kept Lagos safe from the over-development seen in some other parts of the region as a result of the touristic boom of the seventies. When interest in Lagos began to grow, the town had the chance to learn from these examples and create a better development model. Today Lagos is one of the most visited cities in Portugal and enjoys a reputation of being a prime destination with a very good balance between authenticity and modern development. Beaches Lagos is known for having some of the most beautiful beaches of the Algarve - seven with Blue Flag recognition. They are natural places not spoilt by over-development. One of these beaches Ponta da Piedade has been called the most beautiful beach on earth by The Huffington Post. Another spectacular beach is Meia Praia with 4Km of white sand and calm waters, starting in Lagos and ending in the estuary of Ria de Alvor. This last place is a protected area, internationally recognised for its ecological uniqueness. Our Golf & Beach Resort runs alongside the end of Meia Praia and Ria de Alvor and enjoys the magnificent views of this area.

14 ONYRIA PALMARES BEACH & GOLF RESORT Onyria Palmares Beach & Golf Resort is a development inspired by the philosophy of good living from Onyria, a group specializing in developing integrated resorts of golf, luxury tourism and residential properties supported by 5-star hotel services in exclusive locations. Bordering the estuary of Ria de Alvor and the end of Meia Praia beach, Onyria Palmares offers one of the last opportunities in Portugal to build property at a resort within walking distance to the beach. Dream views The natural shape of the land is that of an amphitheatre, descending from 70m (230ft) to sea level, from which you enjoy 180-degree panoramic views. These views take in the estuary, the ocean and the bay of Lagos, in front of which is set the magnificent golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones II, the renowned American golf architect. The water and sky create stunning shades of blue and green which change according to the tides of the estuary. Boats, kite-surfers and an immense variety of birds complement this celebration of nature. The scene is breath-taking and one of the most beautiful locations in the Algarve. In harmony with nature The planning, construction and operating principles of Onyria Palmares are in harmony with the overriding principle of environmental sustainability. Of the total 191 hectares (471 acres) that comprise Onyria Palmares Beach & Golf Resort, the density of construction is no more than 5.7 percent. Likewise, the landscape architecture guidelines are focused on preserving the natural environment and safeguarding the unique views. OPPORTUNITY

16 VILLAS Location Alameda Palmares and Via Panorâmica are the prime locations where the first villas on the resort are being built. The plots benefit from multiple views in different directions; eastwards to Ria de Alvor and west to Lagos bay, and some are golf frontline plots. Property features Average size of plot 3,430m2 (36.920ft2) Detached villas Construction areas from 340m2 to 500m2 (3.660ft2 to 5.380ft2) - not including terraces, balconies, garage or storage rooms 1, 2 or 3 floors plus basement Design styles: [V3 (3-bed), V4 (4-bed) and V5 (5-bed)] Large outdoor areas for garden and pool Protecting the views The land s topography the shape is that of a large natural amphitheatre descending towards the ocean - is the main element which creates the spectacular views. The masterplan for the resort was made carefully, taking into account the area s natural beauty: Total construction density is just 5.7%. Neighbouring plots are positioned to protect ocean views. Strict height limits on all plots: 81% of buildings have just 2 floors, while the remaining 19% have 3 floors. Strict construction parameters to protect the sea views.

18 REAL ESTATE STRATEGY Smooth growth The building work is organized in different phases, based on a smooth growth strategy. The land s natural topography with several different valleys also greatly helps to reduce the visual impact of constructions. Additionally, Onyria has planned to develop the construction and the release of plots by concentrating in a specific area (Alameda Palmares and Via Panorâmica in the first phase) instead of taking a scattered approach. This approach is adaptable to the pace of the market and is focused on maintaining a pleasant atmosphere for the property owners avoiding too much obtrusive building noise. Attractive investment opportunity The development at Onyria Palmares follows the same principles established by the legacy of Quinta da Marinha Resort, where Onyria created what is widely regarded as one of the best golf resorts in Portugal. In that project, real estate prices have risen from 6 /m2 to 1,000 /m2 (of land) over the last 30 years. At Onyria Palmares, we have introduced an attractive start-up pricing policy on real estate. This strategy has been adopted in order to reward early buyers. So far, our prices have been slowly increasing as the development grows, so purchasing at this stage could turn out to be a great investment over time. Other properties Onyria Palmares comprises 120 plots and a maximum of 645 accommodation units. Besides the 103 plots for villas, the resort includes 12 larger plots for clusters of apartments or townhouses. The plan also includes two hotels, one already open with 20 rooms, and a second one planned with a limit of 152 rooms. The resort will also have a retail area and a sports and leisure facility.

19

20 GIVING SHAPE TO THE DREAM Architecture Onyria Golf Resorts have developed a blue print where clients can choose from different pre-agreed architecture styles. This means Onyria coordinates the architectural elements and ensures the right balance between individualism and uniformity. This approach helps to preserve and increase the value of the resort. Our architects have different ideas, but they all share our vision for the resort. The teams involved will develop your project reflecting your own preferences, within the resort specifications. Construction For your convenience, Onyria can oversee the construction and the project management tasks. This ensures peace of mind for all phases of the build.
