This place was great value for money. A short €1 bus ride to lots of bars, restaurants nice beaches. Very friendly staff and the grounds were well tended. Didn't get any maid service during our stay and I thought it was a bit cheeky to have to pay for sun loungers. It's a very hilly area so some people may struggle but overall a great getaway with some beautiful scenery

Lovely location. Great views. A few issues with ants in the property! Also, had to pay deposit for use of pool but not able to get that back as Reception closed when we left and no answer when we tried to call.

I liked the traditional shape of the building, the kitchen area had all that was needed in terms of utensils.I loved the layout of the property. The only downfall was the view of the building complex taking place opposite our apartment looking at two large cranes and listening to Building works was not the most appealing and not being told about it , was a bit wrong , but i still enjoyed it . Also one minor issue was that we had to pay for sunbeds around the pool, which was not mentioned when booking. Apart from that i would stay there again .

This was not a expensive holiday and i did not expect a palace
Property a bit dated but clean and i was happy with that. Staff all very friendly. Nerja is a lovely place and will again. The pools were clean. What i didn't like;
Paying for pool sunbeds
Booking a double bed and getting 2 singles
Told there was internet and it bidn't work.
Overall i was happy with the holiday but the little things irritate and if put right would make the complex extremely good

Another pleasant stay at the Capistrano Village.
Another pleasant stay at the Capistrano Village. Pools and Gardens were lovely and the Cave Bar was a find this year - good beer, food and service. Only downside was we were at the top of the hill this time and it was just that bit too far after walking back from the centre. Got a taxi back on the evenings. Apartment was good in most respects bar the aircon which couldn't get below 18 degrees and the bathroom was boiling 24/7. The balcony afforded nice sea views. The service provided by El Sur was excellent.

The place itself is beautiful and very well looked after however the apartment we stayed in was really run down, door handles falling off and not working correctly, air conditioning wasn’t working properly and leaking so there was no point in using that, asked for a double bed and got 2 single beds so ended up on the sofa every night and the list goes on, it’s a shame because the rest of the complex is really nice and well looked after, the happy hour at the cave bar is what saved my holiday, wouldn’t stay here again though!

We try to go every year, El Capistrano Sur is close to the lovely city of Nerja and a good start to enjoy all between Malaga, Granada and The Sierra Nevada. You need to rent a car. By the way Capistrano has it all, swimming pool, shop and restaurants. But having a meal in the city is always fun.

Whilst a bit dated the complex was beautifully kept and the pools were good. Apartment was a private rental but it was well looked after and had sea views and a nice rear terrace with colourful plants.

A pleasant area a distance from beach and town
Our property was spacious and well equiped but requires significant investment to bring it up to a modern standard. Area around property and on urbanisation was pleasant and well kept. Property had good terraces but suffered from some road noise at particular times of the day. Location is a good walk from both beach and town centre particurly on the uphill return. Nerja town centre is a bustling holiday resort with plenty of good restaurants and bars. Visited the Nerja cuevas which are impressive and Torrox costa which was a lot quieter than Nerja which had a lot of well priced restaurants along the promenade. A pleasant holiday.

A home from home
We really enjoyed our stay here. We had a studio apartment with a mezzanine for sleeping. Beautiful secluded terrace area with Bougainville around. Rustic and homely inside which suited us well - all very functional. Used electric heater which was supplied when it was a bit cooler in the evening which was useful. Found whole village very quaint and well maintained. We enjoyed the 15 min walk down to beach and about 25 min walk into the town which we chose to do despite having a car. The Mercadona opposite was being renovated during our stay but there was another supermarket very close by to walk to. The reption staff member we dealt with on checking in was extremely helpful - we'd arrived early and he went above and beyond to accommodate this which we really appreciated.

Standards has to improve
Cosy little appartment/house village, but with bad/terrible standards regarding beds and heating and furniture (at least 20-30 years old). Not so very expensive and I Guess you get what you pay for. I would not recommend it - I think you can get better standards for less Money....
