Nerja - Spain

Flights
We are principally accommodation agents so we are unable to offer you a package inclusive of flights, but we can informally recommend any of the following...

Monarch Airlines who have a daily returning scheduled flight to Malaga from London Luton Airport and from Manchester airport through their 'Crown Service' schedule service division. Birmingham flights have also increased substantially, staight into Malaga for the summer, twice a day, and great deals for the winter. Their telephone number is 08700 405040 and bookings can be done directly through their website at http://www.flycrown.com.

easyJet also operate a daily scheduled service to Malaga from London Gatwick, Luton airport, Stanstead, Bristol, and Liverpool. Their telephone number is 0870 6 000000 and their website is at http://www.easyjet.com. GO Airways is now part of easyJet.

All the above telephone numbers are UK (44) numbers and if dialling from outside the country, you should omit the first zero in the number. 

Opodo is backed by nine of the world’s leading airlines: Aer Lingus, Air France, Alitalia, Austrian Airlines, British Airways, Finnair, Iberia, KLM and Lufthansa. Offering an unbiased and competitively priced online travel service for world travel, you have access to flights from over 400 airlines.

Taxis

We can arrange for you to be met at the airport by one of our reliable taxis and the cost of this is identical to taking a cab from the rank there except this way, the driver actually knows exactly where he is going and has the key to your holiday home from us in advance. 

The cost of this is 70.00 Euros for arriving and the same again when leaving Nerja, but for a week's stay it may be more practical to rent a car from the airport. (The cost of the taxi transfer may be approximately 75% on one week's car rental!).

Whatever the duration of your stay, should you prefer to use this airport transfer service, you may book the taxi at the same time as your holiday accommodation on our Booking Form.

If booking by email please send the following info:

  • Airline
  • The city your flight into Malaga arrives from.
  • Flights Numbers - Arriving and Departing
  • Arrival Date/Time
  • Departure Date/Time

A normal taxi will take a maximum of 4 people and the fare is 70.00 Euros as of April 1st, 2007.
If you need a taxi for 5 to 9 people, then it will be a mini-bus and the corresponding fare is 100.00 Euros. For 10 to 14 people the rate is 120.00 Euros and quotes are available for 15 or more.

Your return journey will take approximately 45 - 50 minutes so we will arrange to have the taxi collect you from your holiday home 1 hour before you want to arrive at the airport to allow time for loading baggage etc into the taxi. As you are normally asked to check in 2 hours before your flight departs your taxi will pick you up 3 hours before the flight departure time. Baby/child seats are available, if you need only one, it is no charge. For more than one there is a charge of 5 Euros per seat.

Carjet.com from the CarJet website...
"So often renting a car is a nightmare of complicated rules and small print that ends up costing you a lot more than planned! Our idea is that shopping for a car hire should be like shopping for any other product On our website you can see the price tags for all vehicles, see images of example models that are unfamiliar and wherever possible the price is as fully inclusive as we know how to make it. If there are extra charges for something, it's clearly spelt out and shown in simple easily understood headings." Check them out and see if they are right for you!


Malaga Car Hire is based in England. They make the arrangements with a good local company called MARINSA and their rates are good. You simply book with them, they fax or mail you a confirmation voucher and you pay when you collect the car at Malaga.
MARINSA have a huge fleet of cars and they seem to be regularly replaced with new ones. 
You will rarely find a car more than 6 - 9 months old.

The contact details are:

Malaga Car Hire
23 Manor Road South

www.malagacarhire.com

Tel: 020 8398 2662 (Intl. +44 20 8398 2662)

09:30 - 13:00 Sat.

Fax: 020 8398 4955 (Intl. +44 20 8398 4955) 24 hrs.

When you leave the arrivals hall at Malaga airport, look for a representative of MARINSA holding a placard bearing your name. He will direct you to a mini-bus which takes you about 500 metres to the rental garage on the airport approach road. When you leave the mini-bus, FIRST find a man or woman with a red jacket. They have to give you a car and write the matriculation number on your voucher BEFORE you enter the office to do the contract. (Many people wait in the office first, then have to go back into the garage for the car number before returning to the office again!!). When you depart from Malaga, you simply return the car to this depot which is very visible and easy to find.


A less well tried and may be of more interest to US and Canadian clients who prefer to book and pay in US$. Auto Europe use various local companies to supply the cars and again, act as agents. We have heard good reports of their rates but we would encourage you to 'shop around' as there are often competing deals with Avis and Hertz who also have local representation and presence. Auto Europe can be contacted as follows:

RESTAURANT REVIEW

Golf


About 25 minutes to the west of Nerja, on the eastern outskirts of Malaga, lies Anoreta, a championship course, (18h Par 72). There is a good clubhouse and wonderful ocean and mountain views. Club hire too.
TEL: 952 40 40 00 FAX: 952 404 050
http://www.golfeurope.com/euro_clubs/anoreta/index.htm

50 minutes to the west, just north of Malaga airport is Guadalhorce another 18h par 72 with extremely different terrain between the two nines.  This is particularly popular with some serious Nerja golfers.
TEL: 952 179 378 FAX: 952 179 372.
http://www.golfeurope.com/euro_clubs/guadalhorce

There is another championship course just to the west of Malaga near the Malaga airport at the 'Parador del Golf'. Real Club de Campo de Malaga is a state owned club and situated near the Mediteranean coast. This course it the oldest course on this particular coast line.
TEL: 952 381 255 FAX: 952 382141
http://www.golfeurope.com/euro_clubs/real_campo_malaga/index.htm

There is a new 9 hole course just west of Nerja close to Torre del Mar which is very reportedly very nice and quite close to Nerja.  As soon as we have more details about it we will post them here.

Finally, at Salobrena about 40 kilometres to the east of Nerja, 
there is a 9 hole links course called Los Moriscos Golf.
TEL: 958 825 527 FAX: 958 825 527

We believe green fees are around 20 - 30 Euros in most places but it is important to check and book times.
