The Costa del Sol region

EASTERN COSTA DEL SOL

This is the the 54 kilometre stretch of coast to the east of Malaga city (the capital of Málaga province). Though highly developed from a property point of view, it is not anything like the property development on the western Costa del Sol.

From Malaga eastwards there are cliffs of up to 200 meters where the Sierra Almijara joins the sea. This section ends at Maro, on a coastal plain. It has an urban landscape surrounded by traditional agriculture.

Nerja is the most important urban centre on this end of the coast and has grown rapidly. Much of the eastern Costa del Sol's accommodation for tourists is found in Nerja, which is surrounded by tourist pueblos. This town also has one of this area's main tourist attractions - the Nerja Caves, a spectacular find that is open to the public and that hosts an annual music and dance festival within its famous caverns. At the foot of Nerja town a winding footpath joins several coves and there are some nice beaches to be found in this area.

AXARQUIA

Axarquia is an Arab name meaning "The East". This area, to the east of Malaga City, is much less developed than the west.
Until a few years ago when rural tourism took off, Axarquia was one of Andalucia's forgotten areas. Major attractions are the spectacular unspoilt countryside and coastal villages. Shepherds lead their goats and sheep through hills and valleys, eagles soar the skies and pretty, unspoiled white villages abound, each having a version of local sweet wine made from sun-dried grapes.

The natural sub-tropical climate for the latitude is of hot summers, mild winters and little or no rainfall either side of the long summer season. This is further influenced by surrounding geographical features. Huge mountains to the north and east provide a barrier from cold north winds and the wide coastline maintain mild temperatures in winter.

The Nerja / Acantilados de Maro-Cerro Gordo area

Somehow Nerja, while cashing in on the fun-in-the-sun culture, has kept much of its quiet, Old World charm. It has good beaches, stay-awhile tapas bars, and a rich frosting of pastry shops. The evening paseo, the Spanish ritual of strolling and people-watching, packs the streets. Holding hands or ice cream cones, everyone meanders toward Nerja's Balcony of Europe, a people-friendly terrace overlooking the Mediterranean.

With its mild climate, you can enjoy yourself to the full all year round and take advantage of the relaxed way of life of a village that still retains much of the character of its moorish past. Today, Nerja offers an excellent range of quality accommodation and leisure time facilities. There are 16 Kms. of beaches , including the internationally famous Burriana beach that has once again been awarded by the Blue Flag of the European Union and the small coves below the impressive cliffs of Maro, which have been the inspiration of numerous artists who have set up residence here.

All major water sports are available here, including water skiing, scuba diving and sailing. Flanked by a dramatic mountain range, Sierra Almijara, to the east . The old quarter of the town is still virtually unchanged with narrow, winding streets, whitewashed houses with wrought iron terraces overflowing with geraniums, on which a canary can sometimes be heard singing...

However, the heart of Nerja is its spectacular Balcón de Europa, the "Balcony of Europe", a magnificent promenade along the edge of a towering cliff, once the site of the great Moorish castle, with sweeping panoramic views of the Mediterranean and the small coves and beaches below, against an awesome backdrop of hazy blue mountains.

The town's monuments include the 17th century Church of El Salvador, in a style which is a charming mixture of baroque and Moorish, or mudéjar, and the beautiful Gardens of Capistrano Playa, which descend to Burriana Beach.

However, Nerja's most spectacular attraction is undoubtedly its fascinating caves, located just 3 kilometres from the centre of town. They include archaeological treasures such as paintings over 20,000 years old and other pre-historic remains. One of the enormous natural caverns has been transformed into a concert hall, where many performances are staged during July.

CLIFFS OF NERJA - MARO Natural Area :

This protected coastline runs for 12km east of Nerja to La Herradura in the Granada province. Its dramatic rocky steep cliffs (acantilados) plunge down to the sea, leaving a few sheltered bays with beaches in between, which can be accessed via staircases or tracks. Located on the very edge of the Sierra Almijara, these limestone outcrops have been eroded by the sea and weather into fantastic shapes, with offshore stacks and arches and undersea caves.

There are restrictions on vehicles driving down to the beaches, while camping on the beach and fishing in the protected waters are forbidden.

Golf Courts nearby Velez Málaga and Rincon de la Victoria. ( 20 minute drive )

NERJA is the perfect holiday destination.

Guestbook for BALCON DEL DUENDE

We had the honour to stay in the nice Casa El Balcon del Duende. A House laying on the rocks, open embracing the sky !!! , Thomas & Mahwasch

Thank you for two wonderful weeks, spending many relaxing hours on the balcony overlooking the ocean and watching the waves. It is great what you made of the house, with much love for details... Sabine & Norbert

After coming for many years to Nerja and Maro, we have found " Casa El Balcon del Duende ", the most relaxing and perfect place to stay. We would have no hesitation in recommending it... Clive & Neil

" El Balcon del Duende " is bay far the most wonderful house that we have ever stayed in during our travels.
The attention to details is almost as breathtaking as the views from it. It is truly a paradise and we 'll have to return in the future... Trevor, Ronni & Chelsey

Lovely two weeks in the sun !, we all had a great time, enjoyed many a BBQ on the terrace and loved watching the surfers, and dolphins for a while. What a lovelyplace, the views are fantastic and we have often the beach to ourselves. Sample Family.

Thank you for allowing us to wake up by and fall asleep by this amazing sea. We will think of your charming home whenever anyone speaks of the Costa del Sol. I'm sure one of the photos of " Casa El Balcon del Duende" and the sunsets will be our " screen saver " on the computer . Gracias. Tim

Being the first time in Andalucia we had the luck to find the most beautiful place " Casa El Balcon del Duende ", it is like a jewel and we are glad to have found it !!!, Petra & Ralf

Thank you for making us feel so welcomed in your lovely house. Everything we wanted we found here, in this small corner of the world. It was like a home for us .. Mike & Michaela, Marius & Carmen.

Your beautiful house and breathtaking ocean views was well worth the thousands of miles that we've travelled to visit your incredible country. If had the chance, we would move here in a heart beat. Thank you for being such warm and lovely people and giving us a taste of a little piece of Heaven. We will be forever grateful. Patricia & Joseph.

When we found " El Balcon del Duende " on the web, it lookes like Paradise- the pictures do not lie, they only understate what the house offers : Peace, and tranquility, breathtaking views and a very special " aura ". What you have created is a 2nd home for anyone lucky enough to find their way here!!! ....Roy & Rhona

It is not so easy to find a home like your house. When we passed along the coast, it was very hard for us to see the very big hotels from stone and steel. So we were happy to stay in your home by the sea. It was really a small enclave of Nature on the Costa del Sol, so basicly Spanish. God bless you. Tony Webster.
