Hotel Marinas de Nerja
Hotel Marinas de Nerja (Marinas de Nerja Beach & Spa) is a four-star aparthotel next to El Playazo beach, at kilometre 289.5 of the N-340, about 2.5 km from the Balcón de Europa. It is one of the largest and most family-oriented places to stay in Nerja, rated 4.2 on Google (more than 3,500 reviews) and 4 on Tripadvisor.
Accommodation. Rather than hotel rooms, it has studios and one- and two-bedroom apartments with a basic kitchen, a sitting area with sofa bed, wifi, TV and a terrace overlooking the sea, the pool or the gardens. You can book room only, with breakfast or all-inclusive.
Facilities. An outdoor pool and an indoor one, spa, gym, two buffet restaurants (one on the beach, with paella in summer), a pool bar and entertainment that families with children rate highly. There is open-air parking and the beach is 50-100 metres away.
Good to know. It is outside the centre: to reach the Balcón you need the car, the bus or a walk of about 30 minutes along the seafront. Criticism mentions facilities in need of renovation, queues at the buffet and a scramble for sun loungers in high season. Check-in from 14:00 and check-out by 12:00; no pets. Compare it with others in hotels in Nerja.
