🌴 Our Apartment – Puerto de La Duquesa
A lovely base on the Costa del Sol, with everything you need for a relaxing family break — and plenty to explore nearby.
✈️ Getting here
* Málaga Airport: approx. 50 minutes by car, depending on traffic.
* Gibraltar Airport: approx. 30 minutes.
* We also have a reliable private airport transfer we regularly use, with Málaga pick-up available for around €80.
📍 Great location
The apartment is in Puerto de La Duquesa, a relaxed marina area with beautiful beaches, restaurants and plenty to do.
* 20-minute walk down to the marina and main port, with lots of restaurants, bars, shops and chiringuitos.
* Around a 10-minute walk to a smaller local square with bars and restaurants.
* Estepona: around 15 minutes by car/taxi.
* Sotogrande: around 15 minutes by car/taxi.
* Puerto Banús: around 30 minutes by car.
* Marbella: around 30 minutes by car
So you get the best of both worlds — a more relaxed base in La Duquesa, while the bigger resorts are an easy trip away.
