We love RIU Monica and Nerja
We always enjoy our stay at RIU Monica. It is very easy to arrive by car, plenty of room in front of the hotel to arrive then find a parking spot or use hotel parking lot. I really enjoy room with a balcony, rooms and the hotel are very, very clean. Gym has a few bikes, rowing machine, eliptical, treadmill, and a few weight machines. There are so many great spaces inside and outside the hotel. Both breakfast and dinner are excellent, you can sit outside over the ocean (by heaters if needed). The restaurant staff is incredible, very professional. This is adults only hotel. Also, it is an easy hour drive to the Alhambra (drive up and spend a night at Aurea Washington Irving, also very easy to pull up and take your time to get in and staff will park your car for $25 a night, you can easily walk to Alhambra from hotel). We are usually in Nerja in January, weather is generally 60s and sunny, water temp is also around 60 so swimming is not too bad. We are in our mid 60s and are very active, this hotel really suits us well.

Very good week!
Vi har haft en riktigt bra vecka på detta fina hotell! Bra service och bra mat! Vi saknar teman för buffén någon gång för det blir lite tråkigt med nästan samma mat varje dag! Tapas restaurangen besökte vi två gånger och var väldigt nöjda med mat och service! Vi rekommendera detta senior hotell för oss som hellre blir överkörda av rullatorer än för barnvagnar! Vi är nöjda och kan nog komma tillbaka igen!

Our first time at the Riu Monica, we were not disappointed, very friendly staff who were all keen to help. Excellent location alongside the beach, a short stroll into the main old town of Nerja. Good food options with buffet breakfast and dinner. Drinks very reasonably priced.

We liked the position of the hotel as it is out of the centre of Nerja but is less than a10 minute walk into the centre. The hotel accommodation was very good and the bed was very comfortable. There was entertainment each evening was usually of a good quality. Not all of it appealed to us but we enjoyed some good acts. The food was very good in the main hotel restaurant and there was always something different in the buffet. It was disappointing to have to pay for the use of the room safe as free use is a standard in most decent hotels nowadays. It would be nice to have the option of some activity around the pool during the day as otherwise it is quite a boring atmosphere. We ended up hiring sunbeds on the beach most days which was much more entertaining.

Staff mostly excellent except for two evening staff near the coffee machine who rushed too quickly to clear the tables even before the meal was finished and broke the atmosphere among new friends. Everyone else was excellent.

Great stay
Everything was great. The buffets fantastic, the gym & pool area great, the room was spacious. Entertainment was fun. We did the a la carte menu one night. It was fine but actually the buffet is better. But what really stands out is the staff. Friendly, helpful.... can not say enough about it. Great stay and would recommend.

3 night stay in late November
A friendly hotel with very good food, in a nice area. It is in its own little area but very close to the centre. There are some very good cafes, bars and restaurants opposite the hotel as well as a couple of small supermarkets. It is right on the beach with some amazing sunsets and sunrises. Good wifi and tv, indoor and outdoor pool and extensive sitting areas. The food choices were extensive and all high quality with outdoor dining options.
