ABOUT NERJA:
Nerja is unspoilt by high-rise holiday development and retains its unique Andalusian character. All new constructions have been adapted to the traditional Andalusian style of whitewashed houses, windows with grilles, roof with two slopes, etc. Nerja is not just a summer resort; it retains its unique charm all year round claiming the best climate in Europe. This is in part due to the surrounding Almijara mountains with its pine-clad slopes which shelter the resort and provide stunning views and ideal countryside for walkers. Nerja boasts many small coves reached by walking the Paseo de los Carabineros from Burriana to the Balcón.
