In a superb beachfront location overlooking the scenic Malaga coast, the family-friendly Iberostar Malaga Playa is beautifully designed in a typical Andalusian style. Its bright and spacious accommodation is set amid lush grounds and decorated in restful tones, with lovely views over the sea or the hotel’s landscaped gardens.
The hotel boasts a mini club packed with activities for children, including sports, cooking, art and days by the sea learning about wildlife. There’s a lively pool for kids with plenty of flumes and water slides, and a more grown-up and restful pool with loungers for the adults. The serene spa, too, provides a tranquil retreat with detoxing treatments and massages, a heated pool and saunas.
The hotel’s restaurants specialise in local food and are a great place to try typical Andalusian fish dishes, though you’ll also find plenty of international favourites. Bars include a peaceful poolside spot where you can enjoy a drink from the comfort of your sunlounger, and a smart lounge for coffee or cocktails.
An upscale seaside hotel in the heart of the Costa del Sol, the Malaga Playa is great for anyone looking for a mix of sun-soaked relaxation and lively fun-filled activity.
Offering an impressive range of beaches, excellent places to dine and record-breaking caves to explore, Nerja holidays are an alluring prospect. Once a rustic fishing village, Nerja retains an easygoing vibe, despite now being a popular resort. At Nerja’s heart is the Balcon de Europa, a cute square with glorious views – the perfect place to stop and enjoy an ice cream.
The days can be whiled away at Nerja’s various beaches, which range from long, sun-baked stretches to tucked away, sandy coves, and the nights spent eating fresh seafood at one of the town’s restaurants or drinking cocktails at a beach bar. Away from the sea, popular excursions include the Cuevas de Nerja – an enormous cave complex where massive stalactites drop into a cathedral-like space – and Frigiliana, an arty, luminous village in the hills. With so much to offer, beach and besides, holidays to Nerja showcase the best of the Costa del Sol.
