Areia Colonial Chillout Madrid

A getaway to the desert

Elena from Madrid

""Areia Colonial Chillout" is an oasis on Madrid's Hortaleza. I knew I'd love This unique chillout, cocktail and gastro bar/beach club the moment I arrived."

In Madrid Center there is an oasis and its name is Areia. Located at the popular Hortaleza street this is a unique space: a chillout, cocktail & gastro bar, that turns into a nightclub, and during summer is transformed into a beach club!!

Once I put my feet into Areia I knew I would love it. Decorated in an oriental style, with huge cushions and amazing music. It was like I suddenly travelled to a "haima" in Morocco. But this sensation became even more real when I tried their "desert cuisine": skewers, tabbouleh, falafel, gastro-kebabs and an amazing pita burger...

Besides, the cocktail menu is one of the largest I've seen in Madrid, they even have aphrodisiac ones. Every night there are different DJs playing pretty varied styles. I could never get bored of the Areia Sessions.

Also, for an extra special experience you can call and reserve one of the cushion beds. Every time I go, I always get envious of seeing the people that are lying down.

Madrid Spotter Elena

About me My name is Elena. I’ve studied journalism and cinema, and I’ve been travelling since I was a newborn. My parents instilled in me their passion for travel, and I’ve travelled around Europe and USA. I’m the one that always organized the family trips and that’s how I heard about Spotted by Locals, because it perfectly fits the way I like to travel. I love cinema, art, fashion, dancing, and eating! But above all, I enjoy myself the most when I’m discovering new fantastic places around me to go to with my friends. Why Madrid? What I love the most about...
