About the area

The best way to get to Manilva in Southern Spain is to fly into Malaga which takes around three hours from the UK, then it's just over an hour's drive. The Manilva region at the western end of the Costa del Sol is named after the traditional Andalucian hillside town of Manilva, where around a fifth of the 17 000 strong population are Brits, and the area around it includes a number of coastal towns and villages as well, including the well-known harbour town of La Duquesa, which is less than 10 minutes drive from Manila itself.
