I spent 7 nights in Nerja Costa del Sol over Christmas and i had a wonderful time,I stayed at hostal Abril and the original apartment was unsuitable for me and my mate as it only had 1 bedroom bur they gave us a 2 bedroom one around the corner for an extra 7 euros which we fully appreciated,the weather was wonderful and Nerja is a whitewashed village right on the coast,we spent Christmas afternoon having lunch at a lovely cafe/bar on Burriana beach,unlike many costa del sol resorts Nerja is quiet and without the many sky bars showing football all day,it was a relaxing 7 days and would strongly recommend it.
