Just back from a week in the Paraiso del Mar - we loved it. A lovely friendly welcome from Stephanie on the front desk, she first showed us around and then showed us to our room. It was very spacious, with a large bathroom complete with jacuzzi bath. The view outside though is the thing - it is incredible, I... more

What a fantastic hotel. On arrival we were greeted by the owner Enrico who gave us a personal tour of the property. There is a wonderful terrace overlooking the sea and beach where we had our breakfast. Our room which was the "best in the hotel" certainly lived up to it's name. Wonderful bathroom with a fantastic Jacussi , comfortable... more

We went as usual to the Paraiso this April, our favourite spot and we were offered the penthouse suite. whatever you do do not take this offer, the suite which is self contained does not match the cleanliness and high standard of the rest of the hotel. it is dirty shabby and in serious need of a complete overhaul and... more

Lovely location, with ocean viewsl Great way to start your day with breakfast over looking the sea. We stayed 6 days. Very helpful staff and friendly. Owners Enrico and Alice, very attentive to our needs. more

Quite honestly, one of the nicest hotels I've stayed at.

Just confirming what everyone else has said. Don't be fooled by the official 2-star sign at the door, this hotel is certainly not 2-star! more

We stayed in this hotel for 5 nights at the end of Oct 08. It was great, and our stay in Nerja was really relaxing. The hotel itself is a bit dated in style (with mostly pink 70s decor throughout!), but this added to the charm, and the room we had (202) was very spacious, with a huge bathroom (complete... more

This hotel was wonderful! We booked after reading the reviews on TripAdvisor and we were not disappointed. When we checked in, the owner, Enrique, gave us a personal tour of the property and was so friendly. We were given a room with doors that opened out onto a terrace that looked out over the cliff to the Med. and the... more

This was to be our relaxing few days in the middle of a two week trip to 5 cities in Spain and it was all that and more. Our room with a view of the Mediterranean was large by European standards, had a balcony overlooking the Med that was gorgeous, and it was quiet! We could walk to downtown Balcony... more
