Vesta Mare – A Mediterranean Balcony in Manilva
Imagine waking up each morning with the sun rising over the Mediterranean, enjoying views that stretch endlessly from your home. Welcome to Vesta Mare, the new development by Grupo ABU in prime beachfront Manilva, a project where history and Mediterranean lifestyle merge to create something truly unique.
Located next to the Duquesa Castle and just minutes from Duquesa Marina, Vesta Mare enjoys a privileged setting, where historical heritage meets a vibrant offer of leisure, sports, gastronomy, and entertainment. This location combines the tranquility of a coastal town with the vitality of the Costa del Sol, an area in growth with very few new-build opportunities right on the beach.
Behind Vesta Mare stands Grupo ABU, led by Jesús Vera, founding partner and majority shareholder, a developer with over 25 years of experience, known for innovation, quality, and cutting-edge architecture. ABU has delivered more than 3,500 homes across Spain and currently manages 11 projects along the Costa del Sol, generating over 4,000 jobs.
The group is recognized for choosing iconic locations, respecting historical and cultural heritage, and combining contemporary architecture with a deep commitment to the community and surroundings. Every development becomes a benchmark of elegance, lifestyle, and design, creating homes that transcend construction to craft memorable living experiences.
Exclusive homes, personalized and full of soul
The development will feature three buildings and 145 unique residences, with a carefully curated selection of modern homes designed to suit every lifestyle: 1, 2, 3 and 4-bedroom residences. Each home combines sustainable architecture, premium finishes, and first-class amenities, creating the perfect balance of comfort, style, and exclusivity.
Through the MINAMI service, owners can participate in every detail of their home: finishes, materials, air-conditioning systems, décor, landscaping, and even layout options. From the first sketch to delivery, every residence can be fully furnished and equipped, ready to enjoy from day one.
Shared amenities include a communal pool, landscaped gardens, central plaza, and private parking, creating a safe, elegant, and functional environment for the whole family.
A museum beneath your home: heritage brought to life
Vesta Mare is not just a residential complex; it is a project with history. Archaeological remains from the Roman era have been discovered in the area where the project will be built, including traces of an ancient garum factory and villas dating from the 1st to 5th centuries AD, with the most significant activity in the 1st and 2nd centuries.
The Roman remains will not only be preserved, but will also form part of an ambitious cultural project: the creation of a unique interpretive museum on the site itself, alongside the housing development. This exhibition space will allow residents and visitors to connect in a tangible way with the rich history of the region, offering a cultural alternative to the typical “sun and beach” experience. It will add cultural and tourist value, making this project an example of how real estate development and heritage conservation can coexist, enriching the environment and the community.
Manilva: a true Mediterranean lifestyle
Vesta Mare is surrounded by golden sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters, including Sabinillas Beach, Playa Ancha, and Playa de la Colonia, perfect for enjoying summer or a peaceful stroll any day of the year.
Just minutes away, Duquesa Marina offers top-tier restaurants, nautical activities, and a lively marina.
For sports and nature lovers, the area provides golf, hiking, cycling, and water sports, all with excellent weather year-round and easy access from Málaga and Gibraltar.
For those seeking to explore further, Vesta Mare is perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of the Costa del Sol. Just 10 minutes away lies Estepona, with its charming old town, art-filled streets, and local gastronomy. A short 20-minute drive brings you to Sotogrande, home to world-renowned golf courses, equestrian clubs, and exclusive beach clubs, offering the ultimate playground for leisure and sport. Marbella, with its luxury boutiques, Michelin-starred restaurants, and vibrant nightlife, is only 30 minutes away, while Málaga International Airport can be reached in just one hour.
Golf enthusiasts will delight in the variety of prestigious courses nearby, including La Duquesa Golf, Finca Cortesín, and the legendary Valderrama Golf Club, all within a 5 km radius. For families, supermarkets, schools, health centers, and public services are conveniently within walking distance, making daily life both easy and enjoyable.
Whether you’re seeking a serene seaside retreat, an active lifestyle filled with sport and culture, or a combination of both, Vesta Mare offers the perfect gateway to the best experiences the Costa del Sol has to offer.
