Puerto Duquesa
|
 Puerto Duquesa, is another one of Costa del Sol's best-kept
secrets. Although within easy reach of the airports of Malaga
(45 minutes away) and Gibraltar (30 minutes away), Duquesa
seems like a thousand miles away from all the holiday resorts
and offers an unparalleled combination of Marina life and
tranquillity.
Duquesa lays West of Marbella and Puerto Banus. The area
retains a vast amount of unspoilt natural scenery and authentic
local character - while sharing the fantastic climate and
all the excellent services and infrastructure of the rest
of the Costa del Sol. This is primarily due to limited and
well-managed developments. The result: an ideal balance
of relaxed living with easy access to all amenities, offering
a relaxed quality of life.
The beautiful Marina of Duquesa offers full services for
boating enthusiasts. The attractive promenades encircling
the Port offer a variety of restaurants, intimate bars and
cafes in which to while away the days. The vast choice of
eating and drinking options include French, Italian, Chinese,
Indian, Thai and, of course, Spanish with its fresh, local
fish.
 La Duquesa Golf and Country Club boasts an 18-hole course,
a technical masterpiece with wonderful sea and mountain
views. In addition to golf, the club offers many facilities
including tennis, squash and a fully equipped gym with a
qualified resident trainer. Membership is available. Further
golfing challenges are close at hand: Alcaidesa, a Links
course overlooking the Rock of Gibraltar; Valderrama, host
of the Ryder Cup and World Championships, only ten minutes
from La Duquesa; Sotogrande, a parkland course; and La Canada,
a wonderful golf challenge where the fairways are thick
and lush. San Roque, host to the qualifying schools, is
also only a few minutes away. As if this is not enough,
there are another 40-odd courses within an hour's drive.
Whether it's miles of pristine beaches or rugged mountains
with their wildlife, the La Duquesa area offers every type
of terrain.
Cosmopolitan life can be found only twenty minutes away in
the "jet-set" city of Marbella
with its hustle and bustle. Just before Marbella, approaching
from La Duquesa, is the international resort of Puerto
Banus, a popular playground for the rich and famous.
Duquesa has many residential golf developments under construction
in the hills above the Marina but are only building on 30%
of the land to retain the beautiful greenery of the area.
There is much excitement and interest on the residential
growth of Duquesa and surrounding areas with its tighter
building control and many golf courses it lends itself for
good potential property investment.
