Wonderful

Estupenda urbanización con varias piscinas lo que facilitaba que siempre hubiera tumbonas disponibles. Tiene vigilancia y portería. También un pequeño gimnasio y una pequeña sauna.
El apartamento está muy bien aunque necesitaría algo de actualización en menaje de cocina (un dia pedimos una sarten nueva porque las que habia no estaban en buen estado y nos la trajeron al día siguiente), platos, copas y vasos muy justos.
Parte del mobiliario no está en buen estado (nevera, una silla de la terraza...).
El aire acondicionado y la gran terraza son geniales. También el acceso a la playa tan cerca.
Muy buena opción como apartamento.
No
Quilt cover was used instead of top sheet. Size comparison not the same as a sheet.
It would have been nice to have toilet paper (even if it was one roll in each bathroom). Overall stay was good.
Enjoyed our stay at this apartment
Very close to bars and restaurants, no hills or steps to navigate.
Great area, lots of choice of places to eat and drink. Very pretty marina with a nice boardwalk along beach.
Quite a standard, basic apartment but has everything you need. Good wifi, tv and aircon.
Bedding and towels ok, maybe could do with upgrade but not essential.
Downsides -
Pools all closed due to drought ( just tough luck, so no fault of owners)
Drains in main bathroom stink ( issues in whole complex, reading reviews)
Garage doors directly below bedroom very noisy, quite annoying once heard and quite frequent ( again, not owners fault, its just where apartmentis situated in block.)
All in all i would say this apartment is what it says, and i would definitely book again for the area and convenience of everything.
Ha superado nuestras espectativas. La situación es ideal, en primerísima línea de playa, con todo tipo de servicios alrededor, y al lado del puerto deportivo con mucho ocio y restauración. El mobiliario correcto, la terraza genial para nuestro perrito. Tenía también detergente, pastillas de lavavajillas, jabón de manos, papel higiénico, etc. Bien equipado de menaje y con electrodomésticos nuevos. La zona de piscina también muy bien, siempre había hamacas disponibles a pesar de ser agosto. Muy buena comunicación con el dueño.
Superb location. Excellent correspondence and communication with owner. Apartment as described. Only negative comment, friends found the single beds uncomfortable. This did not spoil our stay. Would stay again
Lovely apartment plenty of room spacious terrace centrally located for the beach bars and restaurants everything about our holiday was brilliant would go back again.
The apartment was nice and in a great location, there were a few small things that needed to be fixed which we notified Terry about and unfortunately the twin beds were not very comfortable. There was no visitor information other than how the TV worked, which would have been useful, especially about where to put rubbish and swimming pool opening hours. Overall lovely stay and would stay again.
We had a wonderful stay comfortable and clean .The

No puedo qujar, porque el precio es bueno, y acepta mi perro, otros sitios que aceptan mascotas valen mas de 600 euros por las 3 noches, aqui pague 257 euros por 3 dias, lo unico que me molesta es la cubertura de movil esta regular, se va y viene a menudo, eso tampoco es culpa del dueño, asi que por el precio comparando la calidad le tengo que dar 5 estrellas 🌟 gracias !
Muy decepcionada con el propietario.
Poca comunicación, y aún esperando su respuesta a mis quejas!
Aunque este “especialmente indicado” a extranjeros no es normal que no tuviésemos ni toma de antena para ver la tele. Estoy en España y no podíamos ver la tele !!! Solo canales en inglés!
Además de fallar ñas llaves digitales para acceder a la urbanización y estar dependiendo de los de seguridad para entrar y salir.
Sin contar que por motivos de morosidad del propietario no tuve acceso a las actividades de la urbanización que se anuncian en la pagina y por las que considero que pague!
Al cobrar por adelantado es difícil conseguir un abono parcial como corresponde.
Una pena, buena ubicación pero por lo demás un desastre!
Really enjoyed our stay here.
Probably best position of any apartment in the development. Large private terrace with good outlook. Very comfortable bed. Nice furniture.
Owners, and the property managers, must have worked hard to improve the place as I saw none of the negative issues I read in earlier reviews. It was all really good.
I would definitely stay again.
This is our 2nd time here and love it. Improvements do get made which is nice, there was a new bed :) only thing we would say is a bbq would be lovely (as such a big terrace) and worth asking for an extra gate fob :)
Third time we have stayed in this apartment and we think it’s great. It’s nicely located on the quieter side of the apartment complex and only a short walk to the harbour and beach.
The improvements made to the apartment since we last used it were good - love the new walk in shower and the new bed in the main bedroom.
Linda is a great host
The property is in an excellent location of Manilva

Fantastic Location
We have just returned from a 6 week holiday and although the apartment had a couple of minor issues which can easily be addressed I would highly recommend this property. The location is right next to the beach and a minute's walk from the main Port where all the bars and restaurants are located. The terrace is south west facing and is really protected from the strong winds which can come in from the sea. It is a pet friendly apartment and both of our dogs loved lying on the terrace or enjoying playing on the beach or walking along to Sabanillas or Castillo. We hope to return to a Duquesa next winter and hopefully enjoy as much sunshine as we have just experienced.

Good location but very uncomfortable stay
We arrived at midnight to find not even a toilet roll left for us. Had to wait until the morning for shops to open to get toilet roll.
Dishwasher was not working and kept tripping electricity which meant we had no hot water for a day as it had tripped electrics which heated water.
Hot water only allowed one person to shower and then it went cold.
Master bedroom mattress was unbelievably uncomfortable and no mattress protectors were used on any of the beds.
Tv reception was terrible and vertically unwatchable.
We were incredibly disappointed with our stay and would not stay here again.

Very good apartment
Ideally located, well equipped, lovely clean apartment with British channels on TV on the rare occasions that we watched. The port area is literally five minutes walk away where you can get almost any type of food that you want , with lively bars as well. The only criticism that i would raise is that the double bed really creaks with the slightest movement. We don't know why as we obviously investigated and the base had slats for support not springs, but every time one of us moved the other would be disturbed by a creaking. Sorry about that because it is a lovely apartment and i did not want to be negative about anything as we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you for the use.

So amazing and special we got engaged here!!:)
We absolutely loved our stay here In Duquesa. Having a large terrace with the option to have a BBQ (which we did most nights), washing machine and all kitchen mod cons made our stay really pleasant. Having 2 bathrooms made getting ready much quicker too and the British TV channels were a bonus!!
We had such a wonderful stay here,so perfect in fact that we got engaged in a little bar at The Marina and we absolutely hope that we can have our ceremony at Duquesa in a couple of years time and stay here again :)
Thanks so much for everything.If we were to make one slight comment,it would be that it was a shame the outside terrace light didn't work but we understand that a few of the known issues and "fixes" will be happening in the next year or so so it'll be EVEN better. :)
