Welcome to Nerja and Casa Amalia

Our names are Helena and Ulf and we live in Gothenburg, Sweden. With the windy, rainy and boring winters we have on the swedish west coast, a need has grown over the years to find a small place in the southern Europe where we can combine the sun and heat with our hobbies such as tennis / padel, golf, skiing and snorkelling. We also want to enjoy more of the Mediterranean food and drinks in a charming Spanish town.

When we arrived in Nerja in the spring of 2019, located east of the touristic cities on the Costa del Sol, we fell for this jewel that has just about everything we were looking for. This beautiful small town with the amazing rocky coastline and mountains of Almijara and Tejeda close as well as the closeness to skiing in Sierra Nevada

Now the search for the right object started and after we visited the urbanization of Capistrano Village with the green and flowery gardens and the nice and large pool areas, it felt like coming home. Here we are not depending on the access to a car and have most of what we need within walking distance.

After some search we finally found an apartment that can accommodate our whole family but it had not been well taken care of for many years and was in quite some need of renovation and we saw the great potential. The renovation has progressed well and we have just finalized the decoration of Casa Amalia. By the way, the name comes from a mix of our daughters names Amanda and Emilia.

Since we will not be able to spend more than a couple of weeks a year in this paradise, we think it is a pitty if it is not used by others. We have therefore decided to rent it out and hope that you who want to rent it will enjoy the stay as much as we do.

On the following pages you will find more information about Casa Amalia and Capistrano Village as well as some interesting places to visit and things to do while in Nerja.

We look forward to here from you!

Saludos

Helena & Ulf.
