The Nerja Caves (Spain's 2nd most visited tourist site) are the town's most internationally-known attraction, but the location also caters to other interests.

The Balcon de Europa is a bustling town square overlooking the sea, surrounded by many shops and restaurants

Burriana beach is the closest of Nerja’s many beaches.

Church of El Salvador, in Baroque and Mudéjar style (17th century)

Maro, a coastal village within Nerja's municipal term

The Chillar River is a popular hike up into the mountains

The beach offers a variety of activities from pedal boats to parasailing, but you can also head inland. Rent a mountain bike, a motor scooter.

The area is well known for its walking paths in the mountains surrounding the town. (Published guide books available locally.) Plenty of watersports, quad bike tours through the mountains and more.

Tired yet? Time to wind down over wine and an evening meal at any of a number of great restaurants, both at the beach and in town.

Pick yourself a book off one of the shelves and settle into a chair on the front terrace or one of our sun loungers on the private roof deck or, better yet, poolside in the communal garden overlooking the beach. There are worse ways to pass a week!

Penthouse has no lift. Stairs up 2 1/2 floors are fine for most people but may be a challenge if mobility impaired.
