Traveller notes on Ronda in August
Other months in Ronda
Ronda's forum calls May pleasant enough that air conditioning isn't needed, with spring and autumn both rated as the best times to visit ahead of summer's crowds and heat. Regulars are consistent that Ronda's mountaintop setting, at roughly 600 meters, keeps it several degrees cooler than the Andalusian coast below, especially once the sun goes down.
