This charming Andalucian private residence is hard to beat. Exquisite cuisine, thoughtfully and tastefully designed rooms, colourful gardens and excellent service are all found at Hacienda de San Rafael.

Be it a long weekend, an extended family re-union, an anniversary celebration or a honeymoon – you will not be disappointed by the Hacienda. Situated south of Seville in the heart of the Andalucian plains, the Hacienda is over 200 years old and until 30 years ago was used as a ‘Molino’ for olive oil production. Surrounded by 350 acres of farmland including sunflowers and cotton, the Hacienda enjoys a peace and tranquility all of its own.

This traditional white Andalucian property has been thoughtfully converted into a private residence retaining many of the original features. There are eleven delightful bedrooms and three casitas as well as an elegant and stylish living room. Cuisine is of the highest standard and guests can enjoy dining in a number of venues, be it by the pool or on the terrace of one’s bedroom.

The Hacienda is the perfect destination from which to explore all the fascinating places of this region: Seville, Jerez, Cadiz and the Donana coast with its prolific birdlife to name but a few. In addition there is golf, riding and partridge shooting nearby or one can simply relax under the deep blue Andalucian sky as the sun sets across the plains.
