Jardim Vista, S.A., have been selected to design and build the gardens at Cavalo Preto Luxury Resort, a Grupo Mateus condominium located within Algarve’s Golden Triangle.

The resort is bordered by Pine tree forest and is adjacent to Cavalo Preto Beach. This unique location is further enhanced by the implementation of well planned gardens which weave through the buildings providing interest, colour, fragrance and privacy.

Jardim Vista’s landscaping atelier have created a minimalist planting scheme to complement the contemporary architecture, as well as being fully adapted to the coastal environment and overall conceptual layout. The entrance  features a striking schist water feature, giving sound and movement to this high profile area. Also included in the scheme is a group of ancient Olive trees as a focal point within the development.

Accent and instant maturity is provided by the inclusion of mature palms and accent plants such as Washingtonia robusta, Phoenix roebelinii, Cyca revoluta and Strelitzie reginae. The use of these mature specimens creates points of reference within the landscape as well as achieving spatial differentiation between certain areas. Lower level shrubs serve to accentuate this separation and provide privacy to individual properties where necessary.
