This was our 3rd stay at the Riu Monica and it didnt disapoint, the room was huge with loads of drawer space, my only criticism, and it is a personal thing, is lose the dining table and two highback chairs and replace with an armchair or sofa. The food at breakfast and dinner was wonderful, loads of choice and the fish options were fantastic. While the swimming pool is very cold (i didnt mind !) i can imagine some people would not like it and i was disappointed to find the indoor pool closed on the 12th may. I loce this hotel and hope to return in the near future.

“First class hotel”

Stayed here for a week and would recommend with excellent facilities, very good service, good food with choice of two restaurants. Easily accessible too promenade and walk into Nerja. Plenty of alternative eating /drinking places close to hand.

“Food no so good”

The only issues we had was the food choices and they were not very appetising. Meat dishes tough, breakfast fried eggs like rubber, lying to long, the bacon was not cooked properly. No individual stations for fresh cooked omelettes/ fried eggs at breakfast time. There was no bread on offer at din... more

The only issues we had was the food choices and they were not very appetising. Meat dishes tough, breakfast fried eggs like rubber, lying to long, the bacon was not cooked properly. No individual stations for fresh cooked omelettes/ fried eggs at breakfast time. There was no bread on offer at dinner which we thought was rather strange? Eat out a lot, we were half board, missed a lot of meals because food not to our liking. Hotel was quiet, adults only 65-90 year old guests

Really good location, right on the seafront and only 10 minutes walk away from the old town. There are bars and Supermarket across the road. Pool area and gardens are very peaceful - no noisy music or aqua aerobics thankfully. The rooms are spacious with loads of storage space, nice bathrooms and very private balcony. We were in room 443, which had a side sea view. They are well maintained by the cleaning staff and tea/coffee replenished daily. There is a fridge in the room and a ceiling fan for those who don’t like air conditioning, although we found the air conditioning not very effective. One tiny little niggle - the drawers are quite difficult to open. The restaurant is large, but flows extremely well. Food is good and varied and drinks are reasonably priced. A small carafe of rose wine (for 2 people)€5.40, with white and red being slightly more expensive. 33cl bottle Heineken €3.95. Waiters and waitresses are very efficient (some of the waiters could really do with using a little less after-shave, as the perfume is often overpowering!) We ate in the themed restaurant once, but honestly wouldn’t recommend it, the starters and desserts were nice, but both of our main courses were awful. If we return to this area, we would definitely choose this hotel.
