Has everything you need but without the blackpool effect. Very peacefull although it was october when we were there, very easy to get to and central for sight seeing.
Review by Andy Nicoll from Wellington
La duquesa is a lively port and vry family friendly. if you are seeking an English home from home then this is the place for you. if you are looking for something a little more 'Spanish' then look at Estepona or something more inland.
Review by caroline harrison from ilkeston
I have been to la duquesa twice now and it is gorgeous, no high rise hotels , loads of family friendly restuarants , the best have found to be el boqueron which is in the port , the head waiter makes everyone feel so special. The beaches on either side of the port are fantastic, the more sedate waves are on the castillo side of the port. Ideal for families. Duqeusa is in an ideal position for sight seeing, the main road is just behind the port and easily accessed.
Review by Arun Soni from Stanmore
We have been visiting Duquesa for many years, used to be quiet and very Spanish. Unfortunately it is now becoming too developed and too touristy. I am planning to look at other distinations.
The place is still charming and easy to get to.
Review by Brigitte Hebner from Rhyl
We loved the facility, but we didn't know anything about the area. We didn't want to do 'typical' holiday activities like the zoo or water park, because we could do that at home. We wanted a unique experience that would always remind us of our fab holiday in Spain. Thankfully our apartment had a stack of brochures in a drawer. I went through all of them and we found a catamaran tour that had dolphins swimming along side the boat which was amazing!! And we found a fantastic spanish restaurant on a hillside with an amazing view of the sun setting over the Mediterranean Sea. These activities, along with the apartment made this holiday for us. The only criticism I would have is that we really wanted to find a market and the information and directions were poor.
Review by Val Simnett from nottingham
Not having visited the Costa Del Sol before, we had some reservations that the area would be over commercialised and tacky. We were however pleasantly surprised, because although there was a British influence on the area, (we were able to make ourselves understood at all the bars, resaurants & shops) it didnt detract from the Spanish feel. The port is delightful with a wealth of restaurants and bars, many of them providing live music throughout the week, and very reasonably priced. Although we hired a car and had some wonderful trips into the mountains nearby, where we saw eagles, vultures and other amazing wildlife, and some of the surrounding towns, we would have been perfectly happy staying in the resort to enjoy pleasant coastal walks, or lazing by the pool or sea shore. Our two teenage daughters were safe to go off on their own and found plenty to occupy themselves. Would definitely recommend this resort to anyone wanting peace and quiet during the day but some liveliness in the evenings, which doesnt involve lager louts or pulsating nightclubs. ,
