My father bought a holiday apartment in Nerja in 1983 when I was 7, so it’s became my second home. I take my own family now regularly. Top tip is the further you go from the balcon the cheaper it tends to be &’ if you do the tapas trail round the town you’ll get a free tapa when u order a drink. Good walk round video, many thanks 👍🏻
Thanks Kevin Have some very happy memories on holiday with my mam & dad here stayed at a Hotel on Carabeo St around 2006 makes me feel so emotional as they have both passed away now but so glad mam & dad got to experience such a lovely place, happy times 👍❤️
Been about 4 times over the years twice at this part you are in and twice at Biharni Beach probably 500 yards at the other end, Slightly longer beach,nice restaurants.abit of a Zig Zag hill to go down but worth a visit. Wife's there at the minute with her friend for a week . Can't say enough about it. What a Gem of a place.. Duane
would never have dreamed of heading east from landing at Malaga -- probably due to a lack of golf courses in that area but what a lovely looking little town.
Really like the look of this place, we are Tenerife folk but thinking we need to give this place a try, nice short flight for us, thanks for showing us around.
Hi Kevin, I would say my favorite place to stay, old style and great restaurants. You get a plate of tapis free with a drink in most bars. One word ''Classy''
I'd probably rate Nerja the best holiday location that I've experienced in Spain - and I'm a veteran since late 1950s. Not your typical Costas style resort - lots of Spanish guests in our hotel, and an absence of football tops and lager swillers in the street.
Brilliant video Kevin, as always. I'm back in Malaga in September, love this part of Spain and because of you Kevin, I'll stay in Nerja for a couple of Nights. I'll know where to stay,eat and drink! Top man! Cheers.
Superb! Haven't been since 1987! Went to PACOMARI in Calle Gloria 4.. *There was a SUPERB lasagne place a bit further down from PacoMari with Lasagne dishes in the window* - it was amazing - wonder if that place is still going!!! atb snack. 👍👍
No good, had to do it !? Ice Scream !?. I've added Nerja / Belm and Torm' to my bucket list. That's two Spanish trips for me, the other one being Benidorm. I shall do these two within the next 6 years. Thanks for showing.
Great walk Kevin Nerja is certainly a lovely place When we were there a number of years ago there was a heatwave & we had to travel by car mostly You found some beautiful hidden gems there Very enjoyable Thanks for sharing xx👍👍
As a new subscriber I recently came across your channel. We are off to Fuengirola in 2 weeks. Will definitely have a day trip to Nerja. Keep them coming.
Stayed here twice once in The Balcon de Europeand once in The Rui Hotel same price both. The Rui better by far fantastic food and good cabaret.We will be returning for sure it really is a lovely place Nerja.
We stayed at the Balcon hotel you started from. Very tradional but classy. Behind or at the side of the hotel there is a path down to beach ( quite steep). At the top is a lovely friendly bar with amazing views. We had some lovely drinks post sun tanning. It's a lovely place Nerja ....enjoy 🙏🙏
@@angie1598 we stayed for a long weekend (Fri-Mon). It was 6 years ago however and out of kids holidays so was about 140 a night for a double luxury room and full board. The food was a good 7/10 , staff smiling and a chilled environment.
Thank you its been Amazing being with you. It looks so beautiful and I'm thinking of booking a holiday there. You really make us all want to jump on a plane ♡
New subscriber here, Kevin! I actually live in Nerja -how lucky am I? I so enjoyed your video and even learned a few things....like, who knew there was a rooftop bar above the Sevillano restaurant?? Not me, lol.
Hi Kevin another great vid nerja is definitely a stunning place can’t wait to go back did I here you say you were from the Mearns in Glasgow hope to see you in the flesh one day all the best.👍👍👍😎😎😎
looked at booking for Nerja next year but booked Tenerife instead...think a cheeky little weekend break to Nerja might have to be done before! As always, great video...Thanks Kevin
Nerja looks lovely Kevin sorry missed your live yesterday evening but will watch later when it will definitely rain here in Dublin so thanks for the videos. Hope you go somewhere different for today but have a feeling it will be Malaga as closest ,cheers
Kevin, I didnt see your apartment, but think it may have been near plaza marina, couple great tapas bars near there(near el bosque) La Marisquera & Bar Turry are very local & good value. On other end of town Puntilla, Dolores el Chispa & Rincon del sabor are fantastic. Pulguilla in centre is also very very good. The list goes on & on, you will need to do another video "just" off the beaten track.
Those mentioned above are ALL amazing, plus Valero amazing Tapas, it's opposite the police station. Down to the main Beach, which is called Burrianna Beach. Lots of amazing restaurants on the see front.On the way down to the beach, there is a lovely restaurant called Miralmar, Francisco who owns it, is one of the nicest people you could meet. on the opposite corner is a Cibeles slightly more up market, with a lovely owner, Anna, & a waitress called Maria, who speaks brilliant English. You can cook your own steaks there at the table on a stone!
So very beautiful and how lovely was the violin music? Imagine sitting there in a nice shady spot with a cool drink and listen to that… heaven. One question please Kevin, how do you access the beach, is it via lots of steps, a winding road down or is there a lift?
@@ScotsmaninTenerife I got to watch the end of video & saw Pepe Mesa, you were so so close to 3 fantastic back street bars, next time come out of Pepe Mesa & turn left for Parador. you will love it
Beautiful place ..visited a few years ago and was hooked into timeshare visit -we were dumped at side of motorway when the guys were not getting a sale..More fool us for going !
Do you mind me asking the name of the timeshare resort in Nerja? I didn't even know there IS a timeshare place in the town, and I've lived in nerja for a long time.
@@lovelyshirl Hi We were driven a quite a way out of the town and when the two guys found out my partner already owned a timeshare they pleaded with us not to tell the people when we got there . I don’t know the name of the timeshare but we were quickly dropped off at the side of the road when they realised there was no sale. We very stupidly thought we had won a competition for a luxury day out and not a timeshare visit. Very scary but our fault for being so naive .
Considering the UK miserable exchange rate right now, £100=€111, then I am quite shocked at these 'tourist' meal prices. Let's face it, the menus are mediocre, quality dubious at best and the prices are extortionate, typical for a Spanish resort centre. Talk to locals, get out of town and have a much better experience - and far cheaper.
The bus terminus is in the top of the town. The beach at the Balcon is steep but there’s a beach at the other end. There’s a board walk along the most southerly part of the town. The Caves are an attraction and you can’t access them if you are not too ambulent, unless they have added one since I was there. That’s just my opinion.
Hi we are in Nerja atm. Hotel Toboso Chaparil is in middle of yown but still only short walk to beach and Balcon Good price for independent travellers for mid July. B&B only. Friendly staff and
Oops hit return. Small plunge pool on roof. Frigliana inland is also worth a visit 14 Euros by taxi or 1.2 Euro by bus - still need mask atm. Often called most beautiful village in Spain. Not for people with walking difficulties though
I was honestly shocked at the prices of Spanish hotels and especially those in Nerja. They’re honestly exorbitant and a blatant rip off.The Iberostar Malaga Playa I think is the name of the Iberostar in Nerja….it came up as £855 for a week simply half-board, and £1000 for all inclusive!!…this is extortionate and anyone who pays this is a fool.Just a few years ago AI at a 4 star would have been around £650-so the prices of a 4 star hotel have soared by 54% …that’s right 54%….well above any increase due to the Ukraine war or lost profits from the Covid lockdown. Perhaps Spanish hoteliers have just become much,much greedier 🙄🙄….this is how silly their prices are….I could fly to the far east with a top carrier like Qatar or Singapore and stay there for a month for the price of an all inclusive in Spain!!…which is just 2 hours away 🤣
855 week half board in nice hotel doesnt sound that bad with todays prices to be honest. Prices vary a lot I have stayed in nerja for 50 quid but last time there prices much higher i agree.
For christ sake kev. Ya told us how much the salads are. How much the ice creams are . How much the tapas are . How much the breakfasts are. HOW MUCH IS THE GUINNESS FOR GOD SAKE. 🤣🤣🤣🤣😛😛👍
