New Build Beachfront Apartments in Manilva with a Roman Heritage

Manilva, on the western Costa del Sol, is one of the area’s more quietly appealing towns—close enough to Estepona and Sotogrande for convenience, yet with its own distinct character. This new beachfront development sits next to the Castillo de la Duquesa and a short walk from Duquesa Marina, placing you within easy reach of restaurants, shops and water sports, while the setting itself remains calm and residential. The buildings are contemporary in style, with three blocks housing 145 apartments in total. You can choose from one to four bedrooms, each designed to make the most of the Mediterranean light and the sea views that most units enjoy.

Inside, the layouts are open-plan, with living and dining areas flowing directly onto private terraces. The kitchens are fitted with appliances, the bathrooms are clean and modern, and every home includes a home automation system for controlling lighting and the entrance door. Sustainability has been considered in the communal areas, where photovoltaic solar panels help reduce energy consumption.

The communal spaces are built around the beachfront setting. There is an infinity pool that looks out over the sea, a separate children’s pool, landscaped gardens and a central plaza. An indoor gym and a multipurpose room—suitable for coworking, meetings or private events—add to the facilities. Every apartment comes with an assigned underground parking space and a private storage room, which is useful whether you are living here full-time or using it as a holiday home.

What sets this development apart is its connection to the site’s history. Roman-era archaeological remains discovered during construction will be preserved and displayed in an interpretive museum within the complex—a cultural feature that is unusual for a new residential project on this coast.

The location works well for exploring the wider area. Duquesa Marina is about two kilometres away, La Duquesa Golf three kilometres, Estepona fifteen, Marbella forty-five, Gibraltar Airport thirty-five and Málaga International Airport ninety.
