    A perfect relaxing stay

    We have just returned from our second stay at this hotel and we hope to be back again soon. Everything runs like clock work in the hotel, it is spotlessly clean throughout and the food and drinks are excellent. The staff are very friendly and work tirelessly to ensure guests have a great time. There were always plenty of sunbeds available. We thought the entertainment had improved from last year, and we particularly enjoyed Hector, the Hit Bros and Il Sono. We had a sea view room and the balcony views were stunning. The rooms are well equipped and designed.

    Nice enough but very busy

    As is generally reported this is a good hotel. We booked the larger room that slept 3 (728) & it was very spacious and clean (& quiet) with a sea view. We enjoyed the buffet so much we didn't try the Spanish a la carte. Entertainment OK. The staff are all very friendly and efficient. The location is good, a 12 minute walk into Nerja with great shops/tapas. The things we didn't like - Although there are loads of sunbeds most of them are under a shade - it was one of those overhead blind type set up's. The entertainers all had great voices but they all sang the same songs so it became boring. (Elvis was good) There are no bars to walk to on the prom, there are a couple of restaurants but I wouldn't want to take up a table just having a drink. It was the same across the road - all restaurants except the ship. The bar tender there was a nice guy but with cheap plastic uncomfortable chairs it was not somewhere we wanted to linger. The beach was absolutely mobbed, you could barely walk along it. Whether it was the time of year (Aug) not sure. Nerja itself was also manic, too busy for us with difficulty getting a seat in the tapas bars & restaurants. Again maybe due to the time of year but we didn't find it relaxing or inviting, everything was a hassle. Frigiliana was very pretty but bear in mind if you go by taxi (13 euro one way) there are only 4 taxis in the village & you may have a wait to get back to Nerja.

    Nice hotel

    Perfect location- just a 10 minute walk to the town. The atmosphere in Nerja is wonderful- so many lovely trinket shops and fabulous clothing. The hotel was very clean and the service was very good. When we arrived (late at night) our room had not had the air conditioning on for a while and it was stiflingly hot! Also, the fridge wasn’t working. Once we called out maintenance, these things were fixed quickly. The food was typical of buffet hotels. We were full board, but no water was even included at mealtimes- it ended up being a very expensive drinks bill at the end of the two weeks, even though neither of us had more than one alcoholic drink per day (€300). The desserts were very bland- lots of fake cream and pretty much the same every night. The sun bed situation was tiring- my partner needed to get in the queue at 7.30am every morning to secure one for us! The evening entertainment was ok, at best. There was an Elvis night, but he only sang songs from the 1950s.
