Parador of Nerja ****

Lovely parador, modern, overlooking Nerja's main beach with lift to take guests down the cliff to the shore. Excellent food (we recommend fish), quick service and mainly north-european clientele. Nice pool and garden. Reception service could improve though. See more comments in our section on paradors in Spain. Also see photos of Nerja parador.

Overlooking the beach , this large hotel has comfortable, good-sized rooms with lovely views. It is in the pedestrian area of the old town of Nerja and has direct access to and from the beach. Swimming pool, sauna and restaurant in the hotel and actually on the beach during hight season.

A rustic-style hotel, 10km away from Nerja, set in the mountains overlooking the sea.

Set in a series of small white houses, each room has its own access from the garden. 12 double rooms, all with their own wood-burning stove.

Decorated in country-style, it makes a nice change from the usual beach hotel.
