Access: The apartment is in a colony off the main A7 beach road, which connects you to Malaga, or Gibraltar, airports, and all the wonderful sights and experiences in between.

Surrounding area and things to do: Duquesa, as it is known locally, is distinguished in that the area retains a vast amount of unspoiled natural scenery and authentic local character – while sharing the fantastic climate of the rest of the Costa del Sol. Duquesa port has a wonderful authentic Spanish sea village feel and seems like a thousand miles away from the throng of the holiday resorts. It is relatively quiet during most of the year. The restaurants come alive in July and August. 

• In less than a 20 minute downhill walk you can be enjoying the fun of Duquesa port and its surrounding beaches. The apartment’s panoramic views come from its hilltop location – Taxis are easily accessible at the Duquesa port, making it easy to treat yourself to a short taxi ride back home up the hill at the end of your night.
• Beyond the Duquesa port, still more nightlife and shopping await you in Marbella and Puerto Bañus (30 min one direction), and Sotogrande Port (10 mins) or Gibraltar (30 mins) in the other direction.
• You are centrally situated to a wide choice of beaches, diving, and snorkeling, as well as the forested mountain terrain featuring winding roads and hiking trails leading to the panoramic vistas of the Sierras Bermejas National Park  (50 min).  Rising virtually from the beaches, in the mountains the famed white villages of Manilva, Casares, and Gaucin are all within 60 minutes’ drive. 
• In addition to the Duquesa Golf Club, further golfing challenges are close at hand: Alcaidesa Links course overlooking the Rock of Gibraltar as well as the newer Heathland course; Valderrama, host of the Ryder Cup and World Championship, is only ten minutes from La Duquesa; Sotogrande and La Reserva are nearby. As if this is not enough, there are another 40-odd courses within an hour’s drive.

Truly a diverse assortment of experiences – inclusive of many interests- awaits guests at this special sunshine holiday destination.
