Self Catering:
All our propertes are very well equipped for self-catering.
All have full-size ovens, four-plate ceramic hobs, full-height
fridge-freezers (with a second fridge in Alamar), microwaves,
toasters, electric kettles, traditional teapots, cafetieres,
plus complete sets of saucepans and frying pans. In addition,
there are casserole dishes, various mixing and serving bowls,
plus a wide variety of utensils. All have ample crockery, cutlery
and glasses, which saves having to ensure the washing up is
done before the next meal or snack. This is especially useful
in the apartments, where we did not have room to install dishwashers,
which we do have in the villas. The villas also have built-in
bar-b-q's on their terraces, unfortunately 'Community' rules
preclude us doing the same with the apartments. If you need
any item (within reason) for cooking purposes, just ask Karen,
our Agent, who will endeavour to purchase the item, at no cost
to yourselves, providing it remains on our inventory when you
depart. To get you started, we include in the rental a small
'welcome pack’ of bread, butter (or similar), milk, fruit
juice, bottled water, wine, beer and toilet rolls. Other items
can be supplied by special request. Previous guests have often
left tea, coffee, sugar, spices, herbs, oils, vinegars and other
condiments. Our properties are thoroughly cleaned between bookings
and we have access to an emergency maintenance man in the event
of any problems.
Nerja
Supermarkets: There is a small supermarket down on
Burriana Beach, open seven days a week, until midnight in the
summer and 10pm in the winter. It manages to stock a wide selection
of items within its limited space, including UK
newspapers from early morning on the day
of issue. However it
is more expensive than 'Supersol', which is located on the old
N340 main road at the top of the hill, almost opposite the Nerja
Club Hotel. There is another 'Supersol' plus other supermarkets
dotted around the town, though not altogether ideal for car
parking, or walking to our properties. One of our favourites,
with a convenient car park, is the family-owned 'Iranzo', on
the main road roundabout junction leading down the hill to the
'Parador' hotel. It's also the best and cheapest place for 'duty-paid'
alcohol, if you have room in your case on the way home. The
'Tuesday Market', in the open air, is also a great place to
buy all sorts of items, often much cheaper than the UK.
Hypermarket: About 20 minutes from Nerja, at
Velez-Malaga, there is a huge 'Eroski' hypermarket, well signposted
and accessed from the A7 motorway, where you can do a 'shop'
for the whole week, en-route from Malaga Airport. It has everything
and it is cheap, with parking being plentiful and convenient.
The 'Mall' is open until 10pm six days a week
(closed Sundays) and contains numerous other shops, including
a 'Dunnes' store, the Irish 'Marks & Spencer'. Incidentally,
the 'Aqua Velis' water park, the closest one to Nerja, is almost
opposite. So, go shopping whilst you abandon the children!
