EX-205, 10858, Villasbuenas de Gata
Been here?
A natural swimming pool with a snack bar, but the permitted motorhome area is a poorly marked, uneven pine-covered section with difficult access. The upper P 24h area is steep except for a couple of places usable with levelling blocks, while the lower area is flatter but busier. There are no grey- or black-water services. The snack-bar parking is not the permitted motorhome area.

The area permitted for motorhomes is an uneven pine forest with poor signage and very bad access. The parking area by the beach bar is NOT the permitted area.
Good area for sleeping; I spent one very peaceful night. No grey or black water services. The upper area, where the 24-hour parking sign is, is quite steep, except for a couple of spots where you can sleep using leveling blocks. The lower area is flatter, but there is more car movement because of the beach bar. The beach bar is recommended! Great pool, even without the gate in the water!
A great place for swimming; it is one of the few pools that have water before officially opening. If you park by the beach bar parking area, it is fine; the other area is completely sloped and impossible to park in, and the road is in very poor condition.
It is a very beautiful place, but finding a level parking spot is a little difficult because the entire shaded area is sloped and cobbled. It is very peaceful for sleeping, though, and the river is wonderful.
I will not come back. They have spread gravel in the pine forest where parking is allowed, and I lost traction twice. The spaces are uneven and offer no shade. The beach bar service is dreadful, as every year.
Danger, DANGER. Do not take the entrance on the right marked 24-hour motorhome parking. The ground is steep, with loose soil and gravel. The signs lead you to a loose-gravel area with no way out. With great effort we got the motorhome out because it was sinking into the ground. Take the entrance on the left, which leads to the lower open area where you can park on level ground.
You can spend the night. Maximum 24 hours. No services. Quiet place.
The place is very beautiful, but the parking area they built among the pine trees is very uneven and poorly designed for motorhomes or campervans; there is no problem for cars.
