Accommodation options
Nerja is small beach town with hundreds of accommodation options. There is a large choice of hotel or hostal rooms in the centre, particularly around the famous Balcon de Europa with the beautiful Calahonda beach on the doorstep. Burriana beach can be reached in ten minutes on foot. Please note, 'hostals' in Spain are essentially more budget friendly en-suite hotels rooms, usually without a restaurant - nothing like a hostel!
For families, there are many self-catering apartments on one of the Capistrano villages within easy reach of everything.
For young families wanting access to the biggest swimming pool in Nerja, there are several apartments available to rent on San Juan de Capistrano. This is also where the wedding ceremony and dinner will be held on Sunday.
Nerja is a small town and well connected by buses (€1 a journey) and taxis (€10 or less) so it really doesn't matter where you stay. However, we do advise booking early. Some accommodation options can be found at:

Children
We understand many of our friends are planning to enjoy a weekend break without their children.
However, we have designed the 'Aperitivo' event so that adults and children can celebrate together in a casual and less formal environment.
For the Matrimonio event, there will be a separate floor at the venue where children will enjoy their meal and be professionally entertained throughout the festivities allowing everyone the freedom to enjoy the party.
For guests planning to attend with young children, we can also try and put you in touch with a local babysitter if required.
Wedding gifts
We are asking everyone to travel in order to participate in our celebrations. Your presence rather than your presents is sincerely our only wish.
Photos
We have decided not to employ the services of a professional photographer. Therefore, we encourage everyone to bring out their camera and snap away. Instead of a gift, please just send us your best shots!
