Lisbon has secured its place among the world’s 30 most sought-after destinations by millionaires, according to the latest Savills HNWI Hotspot Index 2025. The Portuguese capital ranks 26th, while Cascais follows at 33rd and Quinta do Lago at 43rd, reinforcing Portugal’s appeal as a leading hub for high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs).
The study, part of Savills’ Spotlight on Wealth Trends report, evaluated nearly 100 global hotspots. It highlights Portugal’s strong reputation among wealthy investors, driven by the country’s security, quality of life, and economic stability. The report points to rising investment from the United States and Brazil, attracted by Portugal’s vibrant lifestyle, strong international connectivity, and safe environment.
Globally, Dubai, New York, and Singapore stand out as the top destinations for the world’s wealthiest. In Europe, Monaco, London, and Geneva lead the rankings, with Rome and Milan identified as emerging growth markets for affluent individuals.
The Savills report also notes a trend toward decentralization of global wealth, with increasing interest in coastal and rural escapes such as Tuscany, Aspen, and Zermatt—destinations prized for their privacy, space, and sense of well-being.
By ranking multiple cities in the top 50, Portugal continues to cement its reputation as a prime destination for high-value investors seeking stability and quality of life, setting itself apart in a global market of elite hotspots.
