The best area to stay in Nijar is the village of Níjar itself or the coastal enclaves within the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, particularly San José or Las Negras.

For those who appreciate traditional Andalusian village life and convenient access to the natural park, staying in Níjar village is an excellent choice.
