Excellent accommodation with a home from home feel. Fabulous terrace to spend your days sun bathing. Pool area very clean , plenty of sun beds. Had pool to myself most days
Mandi is undoubtedly the best host we have ever had. She responded immediately to all our questions, and was pro-active in giving helpful advice and suggestions. She was friendly and approachable and I especially liked the voice notes which are both speedier, more detailed and more personal.

Good communication with host. It is a good 20 to 25 minute walk to Duquesa port which is all down hiil. Cab back cost between 6 and 8 euros. Port has loads of bars and restaurants. The balcony to the apartment is really spacious and there is fantastic views. The pools and gardens were clean and tidy. We often had the pool to ourselves.

Best wishes Mandi
From the initial contact for making arrangements to getting there, Mandi could not have been more helpful. The apartment is beautifully furnished- the photos don’t do it justice. The balcony must be the largest on the complex- we will definitely be back and cannot recommend this place enough

Brilliant
Couldn’t fault this , great accommodation, huge patio area and no more than 20 metres from a great quiet pool. Owners will tell you all you need to know about the area and make recommendations on places to eat, visit etc.
Mandi is an amazing host, always ready to help out, provide anything we needed, which was very little. We absolutely enjoyed our 3 month stay, and will be back! Thanks Mandi

The 2 bed apartment is a good size and has an amazing outside terrace with easy access to the communal pool. Mandi was really quick to respond to any questions.
We would definitely recommend this apartment.
Ideally located for a quite and relaxing stay. The apartment boasts the use of two fantastic pools with plenty of sun-bed space. Property is very well equipped for those wishing to self cater with plenty of clean, bed linen and towels, even throws for those chillier evenings sat on the balcony. We have stayed in various apartments within Coto Real and would highly recommend Mandl’s for a great stay.

Lovely apartment, balcony wonderful. Everything you would need for a week’s holiday. So much already there that you don’t have to buy. Mandi’s suggestions on where to eat were followed up and excellent and she was very quick to respond to our requests for more information. We haven’t been to Estapona before but will definitely go again. It is a lovely area. Will hopefully book again.
My family and I had the best stay. We loved the apartment. It was the perfect size for me, my husband and 2 teenagers. And the best was the great, huge and perfectly equipped patio with fantastic and very relaxing views. We started every day with a nice breakfast on the Terrasse, enjoyed the views during the day and often also ended the day outside, mid April.Mandi is the best hostess ever. She was there for us many times before our stay to answer our questions and give us great tips about restaurants and things to do and also checked with us during our stay if everything was ok. We felt very welcome and would definitely come again! Thanks, Mandi!

Just had a lovely holiday at this apartment, the listing is very accurate, it had absolutely everything we needed as a family of 4 plus a fantastic balcony, spent a lot of time out on it, the walk down to the Marina & beaches was not as long as we thought, 15 mins down the hill & 20 mins back up it, views from the apartment straight over the golf course to La Duquesa with the med as the backdrop, Mandi was extremely helpful with all our questions & responded very quickly, we would absolutely recommend this apartment no doubt. The Caddy Family.
The condo was fairly easy to find and once we got our bearings, the location was great.
The outdoor patio space is phenominal. Despite it being "coolish" (weather wise), it's the area where we spent the bulk of our time. Furniture in the condo is comfortable and the unit itself is laid out well containing all the needed amenities.
The unit itself is very secure, consisting of an outer locked gate and then the front door (which consists of a tri bolt lock).
Any and all queries to the owner were answered promptly. Ample street parking is available.

Winter in Manilva
Our stay was late February to early March. The weather was sunny most of the time and the large terrace allowed us to enjoy breakfast and lunch some of the time in the sun. Sometimes there was strong cold wind which kept us inside though. The air conditioning was excellent, however, and kept the apartment warm when needed.
The apartment was well equipped and did not disappoint, it was as advertised. The location of the apartment made it an excellent base for exploring the coast and the mountains behind.
We found Mandi to be very responsive and helpful.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to stay there again.

Happened across this holiday rental when looking for a place in La Duquesa,an area in south western Spain,that we favour and cherish. The sell points for us was that it had it's own stairs access to the pools and a huge balcony area. So it was booked. Upon our The keys were posted to us so no fussy check in. Even a return sae was supplied. On our arrival,we opened the door to find a wonderful,clean large apartment that met our criteria and then exceeded our expectations! Just fantastic. The apartment,location,views,complex....every box ticked indeed. I cannot recommend this property enough and will forever express the desire to return.

Thank you, Gordon and family. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Thanks for the fantastic review.
The terrace is just wow. It gets the sun most of the day, the views are stunning, there’s shade when you need a break and the furniture is so comfortable and relaxing, plus right on the pool but sufficiently private. We hardly wanted to go out! Walking distance to the beach and port (20-25 mins), yes it’s back up at hill so you need to be relatively fit but otherwise it’s a short taxi ride. If you want views and peace you usually need to be on the hill and it’s so worth it. The living area is great too, feels like a loved home rather than a rental. The only little bit I struggled with was the bed, a bit hard for us but I’d still return!

We had a wonderful time staying at Mandi’s lovely apartment on the Coto Real complex.
A quality, roomy and well equipped apartment with a nice homely feel…but, as great as the apartment is, the balcony is the star! A really spacious balcony with seating, dining and sunbathing areas with plenty of shaded area too. The private steps taking you directly from the balcony to one of the communal pools was a particularly nice touch.
The pool area and grounds were well presented and never particularly busy. Always more than enough sun-beds too.
The complex is a 15/20 minute uphill walk from the port of Duquesa but this is what makes it such a great location. Great views from the balcony, no road noise and it’s quite a nice stroll down to Duquesa or the beach at Sabinillas. If you don’t fancy the walk home, taxis are cheap and available.
Mandi’s communication was brilliant before and during our trip
I strongly recommend this area, this apartment and Mandi as a host.

Thank you Jason! I always love to hear my guests found the love for the apartment (and area) that we have felt for many years! Pleasure to host to you and your family and I look forward to hopefully welcoming you all back
The views from the balcony are stunning. The ocean is right there to contemplate and, not too far. Just a few steps down, you have a beautifull swimming pool aera with lounge chairs and palapas. The balcony itself is worth the rental, dining aera, sitting aera and lounge chairs, plus A BBQ. Everything you need to enjoy a beautiful dinner outside. The inside is confortable with all amenities. Nothing is missing. We just loved the location being close to gilbraltar, Casares, Ronda and all other magnificient villages along the coast right up to Malaga. Supermarkets are close by. You want restaurants, jsut in la Duquesa port, five minutes away, probably more than 15 of them. All good and within a marina surrounding witch is lovely. I will stop here as we just had a fantastic time in Manilva. But to finish, Mandi the host, as been always there for us, prompt response and willing to help and make our stay pleasant. Thank you Mandi. You have been so nice.
