335 Duquesa Suites

Hazel1 London
Review Submitted: November 15, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We have spent a number of holidays based in this apartment and the description and photographs certainly do justice to the property. The flat is kept clean and well-maintained and customer service proved excellent. The flat is roomy and well-equipped for 6 people and its' large balcony is a big plus point, with excellent views over the gardens, pool and across to the sea.
Self-catering is easy with such a well-equipped kitchen especially with easy access to three supermarkets and a Friday market in Sabinillas. Its' location is ideal for those wanting a quiet and relaxing base but within easy distance of beaches, a harbour and a good selection of restaurants, cafes and bars.
For those who have a car, access to Gibraltar, Estepona, Marbella and the villages and nearby mountains is very easy.
The white village of Casares is only 20 minutes away and has 2 nice cafes tucked away at the very top of the village on the castle mount. Gaucin is a further 20 minutes from Casares and an extended day trip on to Ronda is also highly recommended. You can also get to Ronda via train from Algeciras which makes a very good day trip.
We have recommended this apartment to a number of friends who have all enjoyed their stay.
The two main swimming pools are a major attraction within the complex and the wide, clean and not very busy beaches near Duquesa Port and Sabinillas are a short distance away. Both places have good mix of restaurants and cafes.
We particularly like the Miel Cafe on the promenade at Sabinillas as its' pastries and crepes are wonderful and you can eat them sitting right by the beachfront. Other recommendations are La Salsa in the square at Sabinillas, which has just changed owners, but the food continues to be very good, freshly cooked and excellent value, also the Asiatico for Chinese/Japanese food in Duquesa Port (Muelle de Levante).
We would highly recommend this apartment and will no doubt stay there again.

A Sunny March

Bo Didley Norfolk,UK
Review Submitted: October 15, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We had three gloious weeks in Duquesa while everyone at home was still in the grip of Winter.
The apartment is very well appointed with a well equipped kitchen and comfortable bedrooms. The living area is spacious and has everything you could need......but the star of the show is the balcony! It is beautiful,South facing with a view of the sea and even when the weather was windy we could sit in the sun.
We visited Cadiz,Tarifa,Granada and Gibraltar all worthwhile in very different ways. I would recommend this apatment very warmly. Jenny

Just Perfect

Review Submitted: June 6, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We have stayed on this complex on numerous occasions, but this is the 1st time we have rented this apartment.
The apartment was absolutely perfect. Very spacious, very clean, in fact every thing about it was lovely.
This apartment will definately be our 1st choice for rental when we return next year.

Highly recommended

Simon William Oxfordshire
Review Submitted: January 7, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2008
We wanted a holiday combining both relaxation and outdoor activities and this apartment provided exactly what we needed. That is why we’ve given it a five-star rating. The stunning view from the terrace bowled us over from the moment we walked in. The apartment itself was very clean and comfortable with all mod cons, including a well stocked kitchen, effective air conditioning, extremely comfortable beds, and plenty of recliners and cushions for use on the terrace. As swimming enthusiasts, the large, clean and landscaped swimming pool was a great pleasure to use. The local port area where the restaurants are located is easy to reach on foot and we sampled some excellent restaurants at very reasonable prices. We liked the apartment owners’ attention to detail, eg. a great range of helpful information was provided on local attractions, recommended restaurants, shopping information, large and small scale maps for car touring, cycling or walking in the area. We went on some spectacular and unforgettable walks in the area using the guide books provided. Lastly, the south facing and sea-view terrace was the icing on the cake – we passed many relaxing hours sun-bathing, reading or just taking in the view – bliss!

A Perfect Holiday

Sea Pebbles Middlesex,UK
Review Submitted: June 29, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
We had a fantastic week and the accommodation was 1st class. Not only was it very comfortable and well maintained, we particularly liked spending time on the sun terrace with its lovely views of the mountains on one side and the sea on the other. The gardens were beautifully manicured and maintained, it was just paradise and we could quite easily have stayed there from morning to night. Also, the pool areas of which there were 3, were very inviting and we felt spoilt for choice. We would highly recommend this to anyone looking for an ideal holiday.

Comfortable apartment

ENO Frøya, Norway.
Review Submitted: June 5, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
I can really recommend this 2nd floor apartment to everybody who appreciates a nice and comfortable flat with a big and well equipped balcony. Yoy can enjoy yourself in the sun from 10.00 a.m. to 07.00 p.m., and the view from this balcony is stunning. If you rather prefer sunbathing by the pool, you can relax in a good sunbed there. We were three women spending eight days vacation in April / May, and we had wonderful and relaxing days in Puerto de la Duquesa. We liked the Italian and the Chinese restaurants by the port best. Delicious food and excellent service. We also want to recommend a trip to Gibraltar. Interesting and a lot of shopping possibilities. Recommended by Eva, Norway.

A Little Bit Of Heaven

Benny Boy London
Review Submitted: March 28, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
The appartment was absolutelty fantastic! From the stone floor to the comfortable beds everything was layed out perfectly. Spacious kitchen made cooking an absolutely pleasure. The terrace however is the jewel in this crown. As it is south facing you get the sun rise and then non stop sun all day until it sets in the mountains in the west. The port is within walking distance giving access to some lovely shops and restaurants. Overall an extremely relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable experience. I will definately return! Thanks so much!!
