You haven't got many choices. The only OW Lounge in T4S (intercontinental flights-Sala VIP Velazquez) belongs to Iberia. It is pretty new (like all the Terminal) and I have read good reviews of it (I only know the one in T4).
BTW I think that there is no OW Lounge in AGP.

) and quite unlike the standard IB lounge experience where it feels like sitting in a giant ashtray with some peanuts thrown in.There are sweeping views over the apron, comfy seating and shower rooms for freshening up before your onward flight. Reasonable snacks are brought out ahead of departing evening flights.
Enjoy!

I believe this was only for people in Business class, and by invitation only (no shiny cards accepted). Maybe there is an IB Lounge in the domestic/Schengen area, but we were in the International/non-Schengen section.

Been through AGP countless times over the years. The Sala VIP lounge is operated by the airport and can be accessed by departing pax by turning right after security and then walking several meters down to the entrance on the right. It serves several carriers that depart from T2.
BA (actually GB Airways) will issue an invitation at check-in if you have eligible OW status (Sapphire, Emerald) or flying Club Europe. IB has never issued me an invitation but I have always been able to access the lounge by showing a BP that has my OW status printed on it.
