View from the apartment towards Eastern end of Burriana Beach and the pool
Location: Nerja, Andalucia, Spain, Europe (Parador area; 45 min East of Malaga International Airport)
Accommodations: Apartment, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4)
Spectacularly located and enjoying panoramic views along arguably, the most beautiful stretch of Andalucian coastline, this wonderful apartment really is a jewel in the crown. The large open-plan living space features a 'glass wall' opening out onto a completely private south facing balcony equipped with table and chairs and four sun-loungers. If you like to look at the view without being in somebody else's, this apartment is perfect.
The apartment has one large double and one twin bedroom each equipped with built-in wardrobes and chests of drawers. The bathroom was recently refurbished in a contemporary style featuring marble and glass. Completely remodelled with the latest appliances in 2008, the large bright and airy kitchen enjoys views through to the sea and has plenty of workspace and all the equipment necessary to self-cater.
"El Tuhillo" is a small, exclusive development built in the traditional, low-rise, Andalucian style. The communal gardens are beautifully landscaped on the clifftop, overlooking Burriana Beach, and the newly refurbished swimming pool is open all year. It is located in a quieter neighbourhood of Nerja near the Parador Hotel, yet only a short, seven-minute stroll to the famous Balcon de Europa in the centre of town.
Nerja is a coastal town at the foot of the Almijara mountains, with a long tradition of fishing and agriculture. The fishermen still pull their nets ashore on Burriana Beach every day and fresh fish can still be bought from barrows on street corners. The weekly market attracts traders from all over the region. The town centre has a vibrant, friendly atmosphere with many lovely shops.
While Nerja bears no resemblance to the 'high-rise' holiday developments along the Costa del Sol, it is a popular tourist destination and offers all the necessary ingredients for a fantastic holiday - good road link to airport (45 minutes), a huge choice of restaurants, bars, cafes, and nightclubs, beautiful clean beaches, and lots of sunshine. A car is not necessary for a holiday in Nerja, as everywhere in town is easily accessible by foot and there are good local bus, taxi, and coach services.
Nerja is also a fantastic base for exploring Southern Spain or even travelling as far as Morocco. In the immediate locality the world-famous Nerja caves and the pretty Moorish 'white villages' are accessible by short local bus journeys. Take a coach or self drive to the Alhambra Palace in Granada or the Moorish fortifications of Solobreno or Malaga. Many local tour operators offer hiking or pony trekking trips in the mountains, diving and snorkeling trips at sea or guided tours of the famous cities and historical buildings of Andalucia.
My family has been enjoying holidays in this apartment for more than 20 years and after a long afternoon on the beach, we usually relax on the balcony listening to the waves breaking, watching the sun set and the moon rise. A bottle of fine Rioja and a small tapas of olives and Serrano ham usually revives us just enough to face a short walk to one of the many fantastic restaurants nearby.
