Why this destination is a must-visit

Nerja is a picturesque coastal town on the eastern edge of the Costa del Sol, in the province of Malaga, Andalusia. Nestled between the Mediterranean Sea and the Sierra Almijara mountains, Nerja is renowned for its stunning beaches, dramatic cliffs and charming old town, offering a perfect balance of nature, culture and relaxation.

Top Attractions

  • Balcón de Europa: A picturesque promenade and viewpoint built on a cliff overlooking the coast and mountains - the heart of Nerja.
  • Nerja Caves (Cuevas de Nerja): One of Spain's most spectacular natural attractions, with vast underground chambers, prehistoric cave paintings and cave concerts.
  • Church of El Salvador: A beautiful 17th century church in the town centre, combining Baroque and Mudejar styles.
  • Aqueduct of the Eagle (Acueducto del Águila): A 19th century structure that still stands proudly among the fields near the caves.
  • Nerja Museum: Located near the Balcón de Europa, it offers an insight into local history and the discovery of the caves.

Best beaches in Nerja

  • Playa Burriana: Nerja's most popular beach, with sun loungers, restaurants, water sports and beach volleyball - great for families and groups.
  • Playa Calahonda: A small postcard beach just below the Balcón de Europa, with dramatic cliffs and clear waters.
  • Playa de Maro: Just outside Nerja, this unspoilt beach is surrounded by farmland and natural beauty, perfect for kayaking and snorkelling.
  • El Playazo: A long, relaxed beach to the west of the town, less crowded and ideal for relaxing days on the beach.
  • Playa Carabeo: A quiet cove accessed by steps from the old town - ideal for a peaceful swim in turquoise waters.

Family Friendly Activities

  • Mini-train tour of Nerja: A fun way to see the highlights of the town with younger children.
  • Nearby Aquaparks (Summer): A short drive away, in towns such as Vélez-Málaga, for a full day of water fun.

Local gastronomy

8 Nela Travelled with couple August 2025
Es un sitio con mucho encanto y personal muy amable! Las cenas, aunque no muy variadas , estaban muy bien preparadas y ricas! Aunque la piscina era pequeña, las vistas eran increíbles!
Creo que falta más personal, sobre todo en limpieza, lo de diario pasa, pero los azulejos de la bañera estaban muy sucios, mucho polvo en las baldas de dentro del armario ropero y en el balcón! Puertas sucias, cristales del comedor sucias y con bastante polvo El váter se iba hacia un lado y la tapa casi rota! Si mejoran todos estos aspectos, sería precioso! Cuento con ello para poder volver! Gracias

2 Pedro Miguel Travelled with couple August 2025 The best thing is everything that Malaga offers, which is a lot and we liked it a lot.
Lo mejor es todo lo que ofrece Malaga que es mucho y nos gustó mucho
The accommodation is in a state of disrepair and renovating it is a shame how dirty everything is, the room and the dining area are a disgrace, we have hardly eaten despite having Half Board, it was dirty and full of flies and mosquitoes. It has a very nice terrace but we are not allowed to use it as it is for paying customers only, we were not allowed to use it. I think I was looking for a deal, they should stop working with this establishment.
El alojamiento está para derribarlo y hacelo nuevo es una vergüenza lo sucio que está todo habitación y el comedor una vergüenza no hemos comido prácticamente nunca teniendo media pensión estaba sucio y con muchas moscas y mosquitos. Tiene una terraza muy bonita pero no nos dejan usarla pues es para los clientes que vienen y pagan los que estábamos alojados no nos dejaban. Creo que busco un chollo debería dejar de trabajar con este local

3.4 Carmen Travelled with couple August 2025 The rooms have nothing to do with the photos published in the accommodation booking, the pool is the same, the rooms have nothing to do with it, and with water leakage problems with the danger that this entails and the room cleaning leaves much to be desired throughout the stay, they have not even swept the floor, they have not replaced the toilet paper, I think that for the price per night you might as well go camping. First time I make a booking with you and this happens.
Las habitaciones no tiene nada que ver con las fotos publicadas en la reserva del alojamiento, las piscina a igu5que las habitaciones nada que ver y con problemas de derrame da agua con el peligro que ello supone y la limpieza de habitaciones deja mucho que desear en toda la estancia ni han barrido el suelo no nos han repuesto papel en el baño, creo que para el precio por noche te vas a una tienda de campaña. Primera vez que hago una reserva con vosotros y me pasa esto.

7.4 Jesus Travelled with couple August 2025 The food is exquisite as well as plentiful, and the waiters are delightful, super attentive, and pleasant.
La comida es exquisita además de mucha cantidad y los camareros son un encanto, super atentos y agradables.
The room is very outdated, room cleanliness is good but the cleanliness on the stairs leading to the rooms and hallways is nonexistent, long-standing cobwebs, a lot of dust accumulated over weeks without cleaning... The elevator is disgusting, hasn't been cleaned in months.
La habitación muy anticuada, limpieza en habitación bien pero en escaleras de acceso a habitaciones y pasillos la limpieza es nula, telarañas de mucho tiempo, muchísimo polvo de no limpiar en semanas... Ascensor asqueroso de no limpiarlo en meses.

4.3 Pao Travelled with couple July 2025 The village is peaceful and the staff is very nice, there are things to see nearby. For lunch and dinner, there is a very affordable and good quality bar restaurant nearby, with a cool vibe and beautiful views. Good car park nearby.
El pueblo es tranquilo y el personal muy majo, hay cosas que ver cerca. Para comer y cenar hay un restaurante bar cerca muy económico y de buena calidad y rollo, con vistas bonitas. Buen parking cerca.
Overall shabby, considering the price. The facilities are from the year 0 BC, breakfasts are limited and poor. The hotel and the location in general have very poor access for disabilities. The pool is nothing like the photos, not even close. The rooms, although spacious, are also poor; there was no fridge in ours and the shampoo was just average. The economy rooms are on the other side, and to get to the pool or eat you have to do a dance to the other building. To go down to the beach, you have to be part mountain goat, very poor access.
En general cutre, para el precio que tiene. Las instalaciones son del año 0 antes de cristo, los desayunos poco variados y pobres. El hotel y el sitio en general muy muy mal acceso para minisvalias. La piscina no es como en las fotos ni de broma. Las habitaciones si bien amplias también pobres, no habia nevera en la nuestra y un gel champú regulero. Las habitaciones económicas estan en la otra cera y para la piscina o comer tienes que hacer la peonza al otro edificio. Para bajar a la playa tienes que ser medio cabra montesa, muy mal acceso.

1 Crm Travelled with family July 2025 The truth is, I haven't enjoyed anything, I just used the night as shelter and bed. I'm not lying to anyone, no one would think of putting two children right at the entrance of a building separate from the hotel (let's say hotel) without being able to sleep until 5 in the morning because every time a resident arrived at their room, all you could hear were slamming doors, one after another, it felt like the walls were about to collapse. I invite the owners to spend a night in the rooms at the entrance that I'm referring to.
La verdad ,nada solo he disfrutado la noche como refugio y cama ,o no miento a nadie se le ocurriria poner a dos niños justo en la entrada de un edificio aparte del hotel ( por decir hotel )sin poner dormir hasta las 5 de la mañana por ke cada vez que llegaba un residente a su habitación solo eran portazos y más portazos parecía k se caían las paredes,invito a los dueños a ke pasen una noche en las habitaciones de la entrada a las k me refiero.
Everything from the elevator in the main building that I think was not there until the pool schedule that not only closed at 7 in the evening but also closed the terrace area, which I don't know what it had to do with the pool.
Todo desde el ascensor del edificio principal k creo k no había hasta el horario de piscina k no solo la cerraban a las 7 de la tarde que también cerraba la zona de terraza que no sé k tenía que ver con la piscina

6.7 Alejandro Travelled with couple July 2025 The rooms were cleaned every day at a basic hotel for sleeping. A great point is that the room has a free fridge. Maro is a village where there is nothing, but they mention it in the description. I do not recommend staying there if you do not have a car.
Las habitaciones las limpiaban todos los días un hotel básico para dormir Un puntazo que tenga nevera gratuita la habitación. Maro es un pueblo que no hay nada,pero lo pone en la descripción No recomiendo cogerlo si no tienes coche allí.
Breakfast is pure garbage, the same every day. The coffee is garbage, the good one they charge you for. I don't think it's so hard to serve a good coffee. Everything is bad quality about breakfast. The pool closes very early at 7 in the evening. It's small but it looks clear in the photo, so I can't complain either.
El desayuno es un auténtica basura todos los días lo mismo. El café es una basura, el bueno te lo cobran Creo que no cuesta tanto poner un cafe bueno Todo mala calidad el desayuno. La piscina cierra muy temprano a las 7 de la tarde Es pequeña pero se ve en la foto claro como es tampoco me puedo quejar.

4.4 Antonio Travelled with couple July 2025 The breakfast was not bad, very little variety but okay. The bread for toast was small bread rolls that were impossible to fit in the toaster. Nothing out of this world.
Pues el desayuno no estaba mal, muy poca variedad pero bueno. El pan para las tostadas eran bollos de pulguitas pequeños que para meterlos en el tostador imposible. Nada de otro mundo.
We arrived at 12 and the receptionist told us that we couldn't enter until 5, so we asked if we could enter in the afternoon and make the most of the beach day. She said yes. Our surprise came when we arrived at 7:30 p.m. and the reception was already closed, as in this hotel it is only open until 7:30 p.m. Now we cannot enter the room. We had to call by phone, etc. 1.30 hours waiting to be able to enter the room. The receptionist girl was very rude and did not inform us about this. They show that there is a pool when there isn't. There is one in another hotel that belongs to them and has the same name, but not in this one. The rooms let in a lot of light, you wake up at 7 a.m. with the sun. This hotel's 3* rating has 2 stars too many. The only good thing is the 2 very friendly bar waiters.
Llegamos a las 12 nos dijeron la de recepcion que hasta las 5 no podiamos entrar entonces le dijimos si podiamos entrar por la tarde ya y asi aprobechamos el dia de playa, nos dijo que si, nuestra sorpresa cuando llegamos a las 19.30 la recepcion estaba cerrada ya que en este hotel solo esta abierta hasta las 19.30 ahora no podemos entrar en la habitacion. Tuvimos que llamar por telefono etc.. 1.30 hora esperando para poder entrar en la habitacuon. La chica de la recepcion muy mal por su parte y no avisarnos de esto. Muestran que hay piscina cuando no la hay. La hay en otro hotel que es suyo y se llama igual, pero en este no, las habitaciones entra muchisima claridad te despiertas a las 7 de la mañana con el sol. A este hotel las 3* le sobran 2. Lo unico bueno los 2 camareros del bar super amables los muchachos.

6.1 Olga Travelled with couple August 2024 The staff was lovely...from the reception, cleaning, and the waiters.
El personal era encantador...desde la recepción, limpieza, y los camareros
There is NOTHING...in Maro...there is not even an accessible beach...you have to take a shuttle bus to access a cove...there are no shops, only 3 bars...a disaster, a whole day without TV antenna signal, the breakfast buffet is scarce and does not vary a single day...and dinner a menu with few options... but the food was of good quality...lacked variety.
No hay NADA...en Maro...no hay ni playa accesible...se tiene q coger un bus lanzadera para acceder a 1 cala...no hay tiendas, sólo 3 bares...un desastre, un día entero sin señal de la antena de TV, el buffet del desayuno escaso y sin variar ni un solo día...y la cena una carta con sota, caballo y rey... pero la comida tenía calidad...fallaba la variedad

7.1 Sarai Travelled with couple August 2024 They had gluten-free bread and fried potatoes on the side.
Tenían pan sin gluten y fríen las patatas a parte.
The pool and exteriors were not well kept, the water was cloudy and dirty and the surrounding area was not high enough. Not at all as it appears in the photos. Little choice of gluten free desserts.
La piscina y los exteriores no estaban cuidados, el agua turbia y sucia los alrededores y de altura pequeña. Para nada como sale en las fotos. Poca opción de postres sin gluten.

1 Roberto August 2024 The friendliness of the staff
La amabilidad del personal
We were sent to the building across the street where we couldn't sleep for a few days during a storm because of the noise from the doors. The food is bad. And half of the menu was not available, it is not a buffet. The pool was green, the common areas were neglected, in general everything was terrible.
Nos mandaron al edificio de enfrente donde unos dias de tormenta no pudimos dormir nada por el ruido de las puertas. La comida esacasa y mala. Y la mitad de la carta no lo tenian, ojo no es buffete. La piscina estaba verde, las zonas comunes descuidadas, en general todo fatal.
