Cannot think of any downsides to this hotel! ##### David Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shirley 15 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent Hotel and Lovely Location Excellent hotel in a lovely location, handy for the beach or walking into Nerja town. Very friendly, helpful staff and very good choice and qaulity of food in main evening restaurant and beach bar for snack menu. We loved the day trips to Mijas, Malaga and Frigliana....Grenada trip next time for us, as on day we arrived and left.... ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A20340244C102688B441355D4161AD712060A1211694770948934.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/64763C73A469070DB4E8893BA1A6780A3BE8C3271694770974093.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/85C0FA437A08AF5139F734F0972F51F07576944C1694770973330.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0DE869BAE625DFC8FCA7BD67E3B01E459095DFB71694771012329.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Shirley Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sheila 8 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A Lovely stay at the Rui Monica I had a lovely 2 week stay at Rui Monica. The staff were very friendly , Food delicious lots of choice, very good entertainment in the evenings. So easy to get to the beach front from Hotel. I had a little accident were I fell and the staff were amazing so kind, caring and helpful. Antonio the manager was lovely. Thank you all for your kindness and help. ##### Sheila Stayed 14 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### M.

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. ##### M. Lynn Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 31 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness #### Best in Nerja Very friendly staff and clean rooms. The house keeping staff were excellent and always say hello when passing in the halls. However no real service around the pool and you have to get up early to secure a lounger. Beds on the beach which don’t belong to the hotel are never available. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5A71EAADD4330187821264C27254C2E256CB2D8A1693484396070.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 29 May 2025 Disliked: Staff & service #### Overpriced Overpriced, took an hour to check in because the booking wasn't on the system so if U book last minute as we did U have to wait. Food was awful. Definitely not a 4 star hotel , for €250 a night I expected a lot better. Delay to check in and the fact the pool closed at 6:30pm meant we had 25mins at the pool, was dirty, tissues floating in it. Pool bar shut at 6pm, guy was pretty rude when I enquired about getting a drink. Staff in the restaurant were pleasant. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Ian 23 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### John Ian Stayed 27 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 27 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Michael Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeffrey 8 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Jeffrey Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Breda 18 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The courtesy changing room was exceptional ##### Breda Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### stefan 12 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great food ##### stefan Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ainsley 21 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice stay Lovely staff, great food. ##### Ainsley Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ray 28 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A Great Adults Only Hotel We had a perfect stay as usual in the best hotel in Nerja and we shall be back again. ##### Ray Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### MICHAEL 19 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Overall the hotel is very nice, the buffet was good with several options.
