The 15th of May surprises us with a spectacular view of a solar halo covering almost the whole extension of the patio.
The solar halo is conditioned by light refraction and light reflection of solar light when crashing with drops of water or, masses of cold air containing particles of ice.
Just Marvellous!
The 17th of January, the owner and member Esteban Vigo received a great surprise. His family and the staff of Arcos Gardens wished him a loud Happy Birthday! That secret party was organized by his wife, Genni.
We wish you a very happy day!
Homes Overseas Awards 2007:
BEST WORLDWIDE GOLF DEVELOPMENT - GOLD AWARD
The 2007 Homes Overseas Magazine Awards – the Oscars of international real estate - and the only global property awards where every short-listed entry around the world is visited by judges were announced in London this month.
Arcos Gardens has lived up to its billing as one of the world’s most exciting new communities as it has been named as the “Best Worldwide Golf Development - 2007” by winning the only ‘Gold’ awarded in this category.
The awards are particularly pleasing for the developers of Arcos Gardens, Grupo Novaterra, as they are recognition of the quality and standard of this unique resort in the untouched countryside of the Costa de la Luz. Situated close to the vibrant city of Jerez, Arcos Gardens provides luxury two bedroom townhouses and three to four bedroom villas carefully placed around 440 acres of olive groves and rolling Andalucian countryside.
CEO of Grupo Novaterra, Fernando Mora Figueroa, comments: “The land that Arcos Gardens is built on has been in my family for many years and from the start, our pursuit has been to develop excellent facilities surrounded by a world class golf course and the finest homes and service for our residents. We now have residents from over 10 countries and in its first year our golf course has been chosen as a venue for the European Tour qualifying.”

First days of Spring in Arcos Gardens. One the best seasons to visit Arcos de la Frontera and enjoy the beautiful weather. Wild flowers are starting to bloom. Come and enjoy the season.
Here, nature and history have combined to create a land of great fascination and beauty. As we walk, we discover jewels of nature - as the image shows-, the flora and fauna of this exclusive community and our connection with the natural world.
It may not be the best place to have played your ball, but at least it looks good. Congrats to Maria Luz, and John's team for all the hard work planting the wonderful poppies we had this year.
On Friday 21st October 2005, we had the opportunity to meet John Wallace, the golf course superintendent at Arcos Gardens to have a look around the course.
John studied agronomy at university in USA, where he started his professional career, which has so far taken him around the world, to places such as USA, Morocco, Madeira, Thailand, North and South Spain. He is currently based in Arcos de la Frontera, Cádiz and brings his experience to the development of the new golf course at Arcos Gardens, having joined this project about one year ago.
He is happy to have had a couple of days rain this week, which has helped to make the grass grow. Water is an expensive and limited commodity, so they try to make the most of, and control the use of each drop of water with a modern irrigation system, by employing technical staff who are aware of the importance of saving water.
