The best area to stay in Arenas Del Rey is the area immediately surrounding the lake, particularly near the village of Arenas del Rey itself.
This central location offers direct access to the lake's activities and provides a convenient base for exploring the Natural Park surrounding it. The village itself is small but has a few local eateries and shops, and the main road, GR-3302, runs nearby, connecting you to other points of interest. The natural beauty of the area, with its rolling hills and views of the Sierra Tejeda, Almijara and Alhama mountains, is a key draw.
Couples looking for a relaxing retreat will find this area particularly appealing. Many of the accommodations here are rural guest houses or boutique hotels that offer privacy and stunning views of the lake and mountains. You can enjoy peaceful walks, paddleboarding on the lake, or simply unwind by the water.
For families, staying near the lake also offers plenty of outdoor activities. There are designated swimming areas, and the calm waters are ideal for kayaking or pedal boating.
For the most pleasant weather, the best time to visit Arenas Del Rey is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) months.
During these periods, the temperatures are comfortably warm, typically ranging from 20 to 28 degrees Celsius, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, exploring local villages, and enjoying the natural parks. You'll avoid the intense heat of summer and the cooler, wetter days of winter.
Couples looking for a relaxing getaway will appreciate the quieter atmosphere during these shoulder seasons. The natural beauty of the area, particularly the nearby Sierra Nevada National Park and the stunning views over Lake Bermejales, is at its best without the crowds of peak summer.
Families travelling with children will also find spring and autumn more agreeable.
