Two-Bedroom Apartment, Duquesa Suites, La Duquesa with Pool Views, and South-Facing
A delightful, two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment in Duquesa Suites, one of La Duquesa’s most established gated developments, between Sotogrande and Estepona.

South-facing and looking directly over the development’s main communal pool, the apartment benefits from natural light throughout the day and a terrace built for year-round use. The open-plan aspect allows an immediate sense of light and space as you enter this lovely home.


The bright living area leads directly to the terrace, which can also be accessed from the primary bedroom. The primary room also has an en-suite bathroom with a newly installed walk-in shower. There is a second double bedroom and a family bathroom.

Air conditioning, lift access and a private parking space are the practical aspects buyers expect from a well-run complex.

Duquesa Suites is a gated, 24-hour-secured community set within landscaped, tropical gardens on the edge of the golf course. Residents have use of several communal pools, including a dedicated children’s pool, along with a padel court, a children’s playground, and bookable barbecue areas, the kind of shared infrastructure that keeps a development liveable for owners. It sits within easy reach of Puerto de la Duquesa’s marina, and a short walk from the bars and restaurants at Monte Duquesa, with the beach itself close by.

La Duquesa has spent the last decade shifting from a quiet corner of Manilva into one of the western Costa del Sol’s more closely watched micro-markets. Its position between Estepona, now firmly established as a high-value coastal town, and Sotogrande, one of Europe’s most exclusive addresses, has pulled both areas’ price growth steadily westward and eastward into La Duquesa’s catchment. For buyers priced out of Sotogrande or watching Estepona’s per-square-metre values climb, La Duquesa still offers entry at a meaningfully lower base, with the trajectory of a market catching up to its neighbours.
