One course defines this category here: La Duquesa Golf & Country Club, eighteen holes on the slope above the marina, with apartment blocks, townhouses and a handful of plots around it. Around seventeen properties carry the golf category in the municipality at any time, and they start at about 125,000 euros — the lowest entry to a fairway anywhere we list. The top of the range is a golf-side plot at over 2.6 million, so read the spread as two different markets in one list.
What is on the course
Mostly apartments: ground floors with gardens, middle floors, the odd top floor and penthouse duplex. Then a townhouse or two, occasionally a detached villa, and — unusually for this coast — residential plots with golf frontage still for sale. Three addresses carry nearly all of it: La Duquesa itself, El Castillo on the rise behind it, and the rest scattered through the municipality.
Why it is this cheap
Because the whole municipality is. Counted from our own listings, apartments in Manilva sit at 3,367 € per square metre and houses at 3,640 € — below Casares, and well below the 4,775 € that the same apartment type costs in Estepona. A golf apartment here therefore costs what a flat with no view and no fairway costs half an hour east. That is the trade, and it is a real one.
What you give up
Distance. Marbella is forty minutes, Gibraltar airport twenty-five, Málaga an hour and ten. The restaurants and schools that people move to Marbella for are not here, and in February the resort parts of the municipality are quiet. For a second home that is often the point; for a first home it is the question to answer honestly before you buy.
Proximity is not membership
Buying beside the course gives you the view, the quiet and sometimes preferential green fees. Membership is a separate contract with its own cost. Ask specifically what is included before you make an offer — it is the most common misunderstanding in this category, on every course on this coast.
What to check before you buy
The community accounts first: quota, reserve fund and the minutes of the last two general meetings. In golf urbanisations the fee covers gardens, pool, security and sometimes private roads, so it sits above the municipal average, and the minutes say what repairs are coming. Then the position relative to the fairway, for privacy and stray balls. Then, if it is a plot, the planning file — what the municipality will actually licence, and on what timetable.
Where to go from here
Everything in the municipality is on property for sale in Manilva; by type, see apartments in Manilva, houses in Manilva and plots in Manilva. Sea frontage instead of golf frontage is under beachfront in Manilva. More courses, and more stock, sit immediately east under golf property in Casares and golf property in Estepona. If nothing in the list above fits yet, our property alarm will mail you when something does.
Answers about golf property in Manilva
What do golf properties for sale in Manilva cost?
From 125,000 euros for a small apartment to 2,600,000 for a golf-side plot, with the middle of the 17 listings at 386,000. Per square metre the municipality is the cheapest we list, and the figures on this page are recounted with every feed run. For the contrast at the same distance from the sea, see golf property in Casares.
Which course do the golf properties for sale in Manilva sit on?
La Duquesa Golf & Country Club, eighteen holes on the slope above the marina at Puerto de la Duquesa. It is the only course inside the municipality, which is why the golf properties for sale in Manilva cluster in three addresses around it rather than spreading out. Three more courses sit within fifteen minutes in the next municipality — Doña Julia, Casares Costa and Finca Cortesín — and their stock is under golf property in Casares.
Do golf properties for sale in Manilva include membership of the course?
No. Golf properties for sale in Manilva sit beside the course; proximity and membership are separate contracts, and a flat overlooking a fairway may come with preferential green fees but not with playing rights. Ask exactly what is included and get the answer in writing before you offer — our agents on the ground will do that for you. It is the one question that catches buyers out in this category.
Can I still buy a plot beside the course?
Sometimes, and that is rare on this coast — a few of the golf properties for sale in Manilva are residential plots with golf frontage rather than finished houses. They carry their own set of questions: what the municipal planning file permits, what a licence costs and how long it takes, and whether services are already at the boundary. Everything currently available is under plots in Manilva.
Is Manilva too far out?
It depends on what you are buying it for. Gibraltar airport is twenty-five minutes, Estepona twenty, Marbella forty, Málaga an hour and ten. For a second home that distance buys a third more square metres than the same money buys in Estepona; for a first home with school runs and a daily commute, it is a different calculation. Drive it once at the hour you would actually drive it, then compare with everything in Manilva and with Casares next door.

The table beside is counted fresh each morning from our Manilva apartment listings — most of the golf stock is apartments, so this is the closest honest reference. Across the municipality apartments sit at 3,367 € per square metre and houses at 3,640 €.
Budget
Add 10 to 13 per cent for transfer tax, notary, registry and legal fees. On a 300,000-euro apartment that is 30,000 to 39,000 euros.
One course, one reference
With a single eighteen-hole course in the municipality there is no district premium to measure — what varies is the floor, the garden and the distance to the first tee. The filters at the top of this page do that better than any median can.
Running costs are higher than the municipal average
A golf urbanisation maintains gardens, pool, security and often its own roads. Ask for the quota and the last two sets of minutes before you commit.
| Type | Typical | Range | Listings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ground Floor Apartment | 3,438 € | 3,088 – 4,537 € | 19 |
| Middle Floor Apartment | 3,082 € | 2,742 – 3,921 € | 27 |
Asking prices across all apartments in the municipality, not only those on a course — read golf frontage as sitting above these figures. Types with fewer than ten comparable listings are left out.
