Algarve's Praia da Luz villas are popular with expats, but be warned, this Portuguese seaside town has some very big problems right now, and nothing to do with Madeleine McCann (though people may find it hard to forget the crime risk and apparent lack of professionalism by the local GNR).
The first problem for Praia da Luz's seafront villas is the new law, law no. 54/2005, ratified in 2014, which seeks to seize and demolish villas too close to the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea.
The second issue looming for Praia da Luz's property market is the heightened tsunami risk, actually Mega tsunami risk from a massive impending land slide offshore on La Palma. Historian will recall the whole of the Algarve including Praia da Luz was totally obliterated by a tsunami in 1755, and that tsunami will look like a splash in the Atlantic Ocean with the one that is predicted.

Praia da Luz, or just "Luz", is a beachfront civil parish located about 10 minutes drive from Lagos.

Armacão de Pêra Oceanfront Villas Nightmares
Atlantic oceanfront villas in popular Portuguese Algarve resort Armacão de Pêra face demolition or obliteration from two very different threats.
The threat of demolishing Armacão de Pêra seaside villas comes from the Portuguese Government's law 54/2005 (the Portuguese Water Resources Ownership law) where many beachfront villas in Portugal are to be demolished.
The threat of demolishing Armacão de Pêra oceanfront villas comes from the La Palma Mega-Tsunami risk (a case of when, rather than if it will happen); the last tsunami in 1755 demolished Armacão de Pêra, a Mega-tsunami would obliterate Armacão de Pêra.

Seaside Vilamoura villas face demolition and tsunamis
Seaside villas in Vilamoura may look like idyllic beachfront Portuguese villas, but there are major Mediterranean / Atlantic waterfront property risks of two very different kinds right now.
First comes the Portuguese Water Resources Ownership law ratified in 2014 that seeks to demolish villas built too close to the sea / beach.
Second is the La Palma Mega Tsunami event risk, as a large slab of La Palma for now slowly slips in to the Atlantic but is certain to one crash into the sea initiating the greatest tsunami in recorded history.
If you are thinking of renting a Vilamoura seaside villa, make sure your deposit is protected.
If you are thinking of buying a Vilamoura beachfront villa, make sure you get a certificate from the local camara (council) stating that the villa is not at demolition risk under law no. 54/2005.
If you are staying at a Vilamoura seafront villa, make sure you have a tsunami warning application on your smartphone or tablet and that you know where there is very high ground that you can safely get to before the waves hit.

Loulé seaside villas in the Algarve at extreme risk!
Loulé seaside villas on the Algarve in Portugal face two extreme threats.
The first threat for these idyllic beachfront holiday homes is demolition under the Portuguese Water Resources Ownership law, where Algarve's seaside villas are threatened with demolition. If you are going to rent one, make sure that your deposit is protected. If you are going to buy a seaside villa in Loulé, make 100% sure that the property is not threatened by law no. 54/2005 (get your lawyer to get a certificate from the local planning office to this effect).
The second risk is from a very, very large tsunami emanating from La Palma; part of the island is slipping off the rest and when (not if) it crashes into the Atlantic, it will produce waves that will make the 1755 Algarve tsunami (when Loulé was destroyed) look like ripples in a villa swimming pool.
