but we were mostly out and about or at the beach.

The hotel is 15 minutes walk from Burriana Beach (the biggest and most popular beach) downhill, which means the walk back is uphill.

Yes you can walk to the nearest beach in 15 to 20 mins

The town and the beach are about a 15 minute walk and it’s a beautiful area to explore.

As for the evening meal i cant really say too much we only ate there for the 2 first nites as the restaurants down by the beach are so good!!

When we wanted our room to be cleaned it was done to a really high standard and we came back in after a day at the beach or pool with it smelling so clean, it was really nice!

After further prolonged conversation we moved hotel to the Balcon De Europa, again thanks to our rep Barbara and enjoyed the rest of our holiday.

It's quite a walk downhill into Nerja itself and the beach, which was fine for us

We found that the easiest way to the beach at Burriana, was to take the road down between the hotel and Mercadona.

it is a hike to walk to the beach or main town,

but compact with everything you need.short walk to centre and beach.

Nerja itself is a fabulous place, lots of walks or local buses, plus lovely beaches and authentic tapas bars to enjoy. This hotel is a great base,  and it's distance from the centre of Nerja provides a little exercise to wear off the excess food and drink that you'll no doubt enjoy :-)

The location is away from the main beaches and shopping area and may not be suitable if you have walking difficulties as the walk back is uphill.

It is about 15 minutes downhill walk to the beautiful Burriano beach (slightly longer walking back!

The hotel oozes charm, & built more like a historical Castille than the more stereotype  Spanish accommodation that you see along this coast!

but we used it to dry off our clothes after the beach, so this wasn't an issue for us.

Nerja town is a 25 min walk away and the beach is downhill.

but soon cleared with patio doors open and sheets didn't get changed  but room was cleaned every day and towels refreshed 
Hotel is in a very quite location a good  walk from beach and bars/ old town  but we enjoyed are stay and would definitely stay here again

The beach was a short walk and a very pleasant area, up "cardiac hill" on the way back though!!

The choice of food has been less than previous visits with every meal being chicken or pork.

but the food was a big letdown every night chicken pork or fish.

We did stay here 2.5 years ago an excellent holiday and you provided the best of food in any hotel we have stayed at !

We popped in for a quick lunch, out on the front veranda was quite busy

You wouldn’t go hungry, and food was functional

This is my second stay, the only reviews I can agree on is the quality of the food.

Just up your food standards and choices and this hotel would be great.

The staff were brilliant, a waiter even apologised for the qyality of the food.

The main difference for us was the food, always told people how great the food was lots of choice and plenty of Spanish recipes.

but we skipped evening meal 8 nights, ate out for 4 and went to the local supermarket. 5.

We went for evening meal and was really looking forward to our food as it was excellent on last visit.

The food not being great - we stayed in on 3 nights and the other nights we went into the town where food was very food and not expensive -
The wine in the hotel was only 2.20 euros a glass and at 5pm there is a happy hour with 2 for the price of one and that applied to all drinks including beers and coffees.

but for our stay the restaurant was fine.

The food was of a very good standard , the staff extremely friendly and helpful .

This was a bargain break so we knew something had to give and it was the food.

We would rather spend our money eating out at the many restaurants in Nerja.

Great hotel , not to busy food good  , fabulous happy hour , rooms could do with a lick of paint and bathrooms could do with a refurb ,

but not great issue , read lots of reviews about food , but was ok not great choice but always something we liked.

There was always something to eat, it's basic

The hotel is spotless room was lovely the pool area is lovely because of the lovely view.

but allocated room clean which was a plus.

The staff were very friendly as were the guests staying there - The rooms were clean and beds comfortable so cannot fault any of that.

but I feel due to our experience would give it  4 star, We we’re in room 247 which was clean and well maintained with good size balcony.

Our room was kept spotless as is the whole hotel.

Room clean and spacious, balcony tiny with a view of overgrown trees.

For a three star hotel our rooms were spotlessly clean and remained so for the whole week after maid service.

The room was spotless with a shower over the bath.

The hotel is a lovely comfortable family run place.we went off peak so it was quiet the entertainment was good if low key the food was satisfactory with a good choice.our room was spotless with a huge balcony.not much there for children

Rooms are really clean and the cleaning staff do an excellent job keeping the hotel spotless .

Hotel and rooms very clean, the cleaners do a great job and are very pleasant and helpful.

The room was kept very clean by the very good maids.

This place is amazing, friendly staff, good food, very clean, from the moment we arrived to when we left, we felt very we!come and part of the family, very clean rooms good food, was surprised they was entertainments on every night as we when in November , we be back for a longer stay, thank you for a good break, they spoke very good English

Thanks to all the staff, including the Ladies who keep the rooms spotlessly clean.

The rooms were very clean,  and being on a hilltop a lovely breeze came up from the sea.

Our room was clean & had been refurbished  with a small terrace facing the lawn at the back of the hotel.

The hotel was very clean and the rooms of a good size.

We have just had two wonderful weeks holiday at the nerja club our room 248 which over looked the mountains and had a large balcony was superb the food was up to its normal good standard and the bar staff restaurant staff and reception staff were so friendly the hotel and our room was kept spotless no wonder you get so many returning guests finally I like the adjustment in the happy hour from bogof to half price

I read reviews about the walls being thin and guests being unable to sleep

With a small fridge, kettle adequate storage (just, could do with a chest of draws) fluffy towels and the most powerful shower we've ever had the rooms were almost perfect, the only downside being that the walls are very thin so some noise does carry!!

The walls are very thin and we were regularly kept awake by our neighbour snoring.

Yes I have to agree the rooms are not the biggest and the walls are quite thin

The only fault I could find with the hotel was as others have said the walls are very thin and you will be kept awake by people talking or the TV.However for the price we paid you would be hard pressed to find better value on the Costa Del Sol

Paper thin walls, you can almost hear people changing their mind!

The walls are thin which we found out to our embarrassment one romantic evening 😂💕from our neighbours next door 😂.

The beds were comfortable, we did hear some noise mainly in the mornings as walls very thin and could hear the shower next door.

Some people have complained about noise and thin walls

The walls are very thin and you could hear all kinds of sound even the sound of someone weeing in the toilet in other rooms!

The only down side is that the walls are thin, we were disturbed with our neighbour,s snoring, his wife must be have been a saint.

Wall very thin and couldn't help hearing conversations in the adjoining rooms.

It would not be our choice, and sorry would not return due mainly to the thin walls!

Room OK walls very thin, could hear the couple next room, enjoying themselves.

The worst aspect of the room is paper thin walls.

Great 10 days. Only downside - paper thin walls and if you have  inconsiderate neighbours,  as we did, (radio playing at all times of the day and night!!)

We have visited this hotel on a few occasions and we still think it’s value for money , it’s 1.25 miles from the balcon all down hill walk

The hotel is out of the way from the busy town ( about a 20 minute walk)

The location of the hotel is a good walk from everything - took us 20-25 mins to walk down into the town which is downhill

The town is a good 20 - 30 minute walk away

As for location the walk down is pleasant 15/20 mins stroll.

The worst point for us was the location (not the hotels fault) it is a massive walk to the balcon or burriana beach which is lovely its ok goin down

Previously it has been wound and relaxing to go back t9 the hotel mid late afternoon especially if been out on long walks or travelling to relax by the pool on the sun terrace.

A small quiet hotel which is ideal for a short break and is about a 15 min walk to the centre of Nerja.

The location is good, only a 10-15 minute walk to the bars and shops

The bed was a three quarter and only enough room for one adult to walk around.

We had pleasant walks to Nerja caves, worth a visit, timed entry slots every half hour, and to the Chillar river.

I was taken aback when the guy behind reception gave us our room key and told us to go back out the front door, We had been allocated a room in another building across the street.

The doors are open at 10am and most people don’t reserve the sun beds and go off for the day.

We had a view of a wall , no balcony a sliding door with a barrier on front of the glass and we could barely see the sky, never mind the sea.

If you closed the patio door, it became quiet with black out drapes.

heading back for the gate we noticed it was closed and locked so were rattling the gate to try and alert someone to let us out, after no response we wandered around until we came across 
 laundry maids exiting a fire door and low and behold we founf the mythical lift that actually does take you back up to reception,.

The patio doors were quite dirty on the outside and

Water feature 1: the toilet cistern constantly dribbled water through a worn valve washer, this I could hear through the closed door in the dead of night.

One of the beds even jutted out across the bathroom door as there wasn't enough room.

The bathroom door seemed to have been spray painted over blistered paint beneath.

The bracket hold up shower was broken and toilet behind door was hit with the door every time you entered the bathroom.

I wasn't offered another room just to open my door which obviously meant I had to stay in the room.

The wardrobe was dilapidated with a wonky frame so that the doors could not close and threatened to come off their runners if you tried.

heres a few examples:20 euros per day extra for a balcony which doesn't guarantee sun.Shower head holder nearly 7 ft high therefore dangerous.One plug point other than TV.Fridge not working.Had to request a kettle for the normal daily cuppa,then had to request cups for same,waited 10 mins for these as the man in the cafe didn't want to know.All doors not equipped with noise deadening facility.Could go on and on.

however we noticed the door handle was damaged.

We requested non-smoking and our room stank of smoke and the rooms around us clearly contained smoking guests so it was seeping under our door and through the AC system.

This hotel does NOT have private parking, the public parking next door was full and they won't assist you.Anyway about the hotel.

For starters the front door rails were rusty; the decor was like from an old 60s B movie.

although breeze comes up and noise at time of waves could be an issue if your light sleeper and like to leave door open.

There is a function room below these rooms and you can hear furniture being dragged across the floor at night, doors being slammed and the noise from the lift makes for a sleepless night.

Next door to me was a small child which loved waking up during the night screaming, this also woke me up, not saying all rooms are like this

There are a variety of bars/restaurants within a few minutes walk.

Also it would be helpful if the evening buffet menu was displayed on the notice board each evening.

Beautiful hotel staff very friendly courteous the hotel is right on the beach The food is plentiful and cater for all tastes this hotel is a short walk into town about ten minutes This suited our party perfect I will be back here again

There is alway plenty of choice at the evening meal too .

Restaurant overlooking the sea was perfect.

Pool and bar great reasonably priced great food.

The town is a short walk from the hotel lots of lovely restaurants to choose from.

Restaurant food very reasonable and tasty.

The dinner buffet was varied and delicious, with lots of fresh salads and fish.

We ate lunch twice and both times amazing .

Breakfast runs really smoothly and the choice and quality of food is great.

The hotel is in a good location close to some really good restaurants and bars, or you can take a leisurely 15 minute stroll into the centre of Nerja and all it has to offer.

Hair & Beauty, Discover Andalucia 4x4, La Domadora y el León, Craft Beer Store, El Colmao Wine and Experiences, Competa Hikes- Day tour, Playa del Pozuelo, Vinos El Lagar, Base Camp Spain, Frigiliana tours.

Restaurant was pleasant , food was typical carvery food

Location is good with some good bars and restaurants close by.

The only thing that was excellent was the breakfast which had an impressive choice of fruits, cold and hot food, breads and cereals.

There is a good choice of food if you like your carbs,

The restaurants that open during the day right on the beach were actually not bad priced for the location.

It's always advisable to start a review with a positive so with that in mind I will say that the Perla Marina is very well located, it's clean and the service in the pool side restaurant is reasonable.

My room had no balcony and when I went to reception about it they were not very helpful in fact they were quiet dismissive to me.

We had a room with a sea view in the block across the road from main reception.

We were in room 367 which looked out over the pool with the most fabulous mountain views.

Very nice hotel , clean rooms , comfortable beds , good air conditioning.Right on the beach and a lovely walk into the main part of town.

The rooms haven’t been renovated for a long time, the bath room and the bath tub definitely needs replacing.

Lovely touch for my birthday was a bottle of cava in room when we got back from day out.

but if we ever go back to Nerja we would definitely come back here lovely sea views great location the room ticks all the boxes and the staff are very friendly and helpful and just a short walk into the centre of Nerja

The guy in the dinning  room was an absolute gem .

We had a family room which was really big.

even though it wasn’t a ‘sea view’ room.

Just back from ten days in Perla Marina Lovely hotel staff were very good We stayed in room 255 which had amazing views and the cleaning staff were the best I have ever seen in any hotel a credit to them

The rooms were spotless we had a sea view with balcony.

Rooms comfortable and clean, most have sea views, free safe, could do with a kettle

The person who cleans our room everyday does a marvellous job it is so clean.

We were allocated a room in the annex, which is across the road from the hotel, room comfortable

I was very pleased with the room - a double for single use.

The room was of an adequate size and the bed was firm

The beds are comfy, the water is hot, the towels are clean and the rooms serviced on a daily basis.

The staff were all friendly, room was spotless and kept spotless all week.

The room was kept spotless and was much bigger than the balcony rooms in the old building, bath and shower with large walking area a double wardrobe.

Excellent service very polite and helpful beautiful room and very clean loved it  this hotel is beautifully decorated throughout Right on the beach we stayed in the new part and swimming pool was on the roof worth a visit and you would return

Room was spotless and cleaned everyday by very pleasant cleaners and also changed the sheets daily too.

The hotel was very clean and my room was cleaned daily to a very high level the cleaners were both helpful and friendly,  I asked for a softer pillow and got one immediately.

Staff were helpful and rooms were spotless.

The rooms were clean and the bedding changed 3 times in 9 days.

However, the room was clean and everything worked.

The roof top pool was small with very few sun beds.

The public areas are acceptable,though the pool rather small for such capacity.

2 Small pools, one on front opposite beach next to restaurant and another on roof.

There is a snack bar in the main building which is reasonably priced, this is alongside the pool which to me is rather small bearing in mind that it has to serve the two buildings.

There are 2 small pools and not enough loungers to meet demand.

Both pools are small and so busy on Sunday - do locals come in?

Pool was very small ja there was No soundproofing At all In our Room.

We also looked at the roof top pool and again this is small, and without any bar or refreshments.

Rooms are adequate, lifts tiny, pool very small as its front line to the beach.

The hotel pools are small with limited sunbeds.

Both pools are small, and the terraces only have a few sunbeds.

My room in the main building above the front entrance was small with a tiny balcony.The pool is small

The pools are very small and most sunbeds are broken and full of holes.

The pool was small and totally inadequate for the number of people staying in the hotel.

The pool itself is very small for the size of the hotel.

The small pool at the front of the hotel was just starting to warm up and we pretty much got it to ourselves late afternoon for a dip most days.

I paid over a thousand pounds for my room which was tiny, no balcony and an old fashioned bathroom.

.the room we had was small, very dark and badly, badly in need of refurbishment.

There were three of us in the room and it was a little bit small

I was stuck in a tiny and I mean tiny room

Good location beside a pebbly beach the hotel rooms are small and dated

We were given a very small room which was a bit disappointing.

Rooms tiny, food poor and what about the tea plates to put it on, never seen that in any hotel
Old fashioned and in need of a refurbishment
Definitely not a 4 star more like 2 and half
Wouldn't use again

Arrived July 12 before midnight , were met by a very pleasant Receptionist,  our room was small , a little dated

Very small room with
no tissues, no pictures, fridge temperature hardly adequate.

The only good thing about the hotel is its position on the beach front, stayed bed & breakfast went down to breakfast first morning what a disappointment didn't go again, staff very miserable , room small, beds like sleeping on a plank pillows 1 and as flat as a pancake I could keep going

The room we had was small with few amenities and the safe cost €9 for our stay.

The room we got was small with two single beds pushed together.

Our room was very small, the bed actually came out over the door to the bathroom.

We stayed at the Perla Marina for 10 days in early Oct. We booked and paid extra for a rom  with sea view and balcony when we arrived we were given a small room without a balcony and facing a wall!

Stayed here in sept for 1 nite room was on the small size no wi fi in hotel and 12 euro to park car.

Accommodation - room was small and cramped, 2 single beds for 3 people, took 4 hours to get a cot for our 2 yr old as there were no pull outs available.

We did have a sea view, albeit over the roof of the low rise Perla Marina apartments in front of us.

but adds to its charm great position on the beach a must to pay for a sea view.

The bedroom had a wonderful sea view, excellent air con

Great Location on Front of resort with great sea and beach views from Restaurant/Bar.

but the view was amazing from the main building.The beds very comfortable.The only noise to be heard was the sea.The bath and shower perfect.

We asked for a sea view, high floor and balcony and got the perfect room.

Amazing views from our room and great gala night on Xmas day.

Plugs mirrors in room not user friendly tv should have been on wall not taking all dressing table up .

(see photos)  We had a view of a wall and had to keep the lights on to be able to see at any time of day.
