Monchique Hills, a high end project that seeks to combine community living with sustainability and respect for the natural environment
The Monchique Hills resort is a project owned and managed by Marc Ansari and Justine Lamboley, with the intention of fostering a sense of community and supporting sustainable well-being. Located in Monchique, in the Algarve region of Portugal, the project combines residential-style living with environmental sustainability and long-term durability. The development is currently licensed as a tourism resort, with a clear pathway and long-term vision toward future residential living once all stages are completed and regulatory conditions allow. Covering approximately 22,000 square metres, it has been designed with an emphasis on renewable energy, independent utility systems, and integration with the surrounding natural landscape. The project was launched before the COVID-19 pandemic and has successfully overcome an extraordinary series of challenges, from a global health crisis and labour shortages to the complex and lengthy administrative processes that accompany large-scale developments in Portugal. Throughout every stage, the developers remained committed to their vision, demonstrating resilience, determination, and long-term confidence in the project.
Today, that perseverance is reflected in a development that continues to move forward with a strong focus on sustainability, quality, and community living. By combining renewable energy solutions, durable construction materials, generous green spaces, and thoughtfully designed shared facilities, the project offers buyers the reassurance of a development built on proven commitment and a vision designed to stand the test of time.
One of the main goals of Monchique Hills is to develop a residential-style community that is both sustainable and practical. The project is planned to include separate housing lines, each with its own water and energy systems. Solar energy plays an important role in the design, with a typical two-bedroom unit having six solar panels on its roof. According to Marc Ansari, the buildings are being constructed using high quality materials intended to better resist humidity, rain, and strong winds, which helps reduce maintenance over time. In addition, the project includes green spaces with local trees and flowers, natural stone features, and shared areas such as a café and wellness activities, aiming to balance private living spaces with community life.
Beyond its focus on sustainability and community living, Monchique Hills also reflects a strong social purpose. As part of the developer's long-term commitment to creating a positive impact, a portion of the proceeds from property sales will be donated towards educational opportunities for young women from disadvantaged backgrounds. This personal commitment by the developer extends the project's values beyond the development itself, contributing to opportunities that can make a lasting difference in people's lives.
