Joanna’s Comments
Hacienda de San Rafael brings one into the countryside just 45 minutes south of Seville. Once a thriving olive estate, the country house has been modernized in a Spanish country-house rustic style. Anthony Reid Mora-Figueroa is the genial host and lord of the manor and joins guests for drinks each evening by the west pool, where the sun sets over the corn-colored countryside. There are three swimming pools, and it is easy to find a quiet corner under an olive tree to read a book or take a nap. There are 11 Deluxe rooms situated in the main house around a bougainvillea-filled courtyard, and three casitas located in the olive groves. The casitas have their own dining and relaxation area. Coffee and orange juice is waiting for you when you wake up in the morning. There is a private villa which can be taken as one villa with six bedrooms and a private pool, or two villas with three bedrooms in each sharing one pool. The villa has stunning views across the countryside to the mountains. This is a great location from which to explore the White Villages of Andalucía, the Doñana National Park (Europe’s most important wetlands bird sanctuary) and the Jerez wine and sherry area. Horses and riding play a huge part at the Hacienda. The horses in this area are famous, not only for their beauty, but for their magnificent prowess – these are the horses that star in the Spanish Riding School in Vienna. Many people who come to the Hacienda ride every day. There are expert instructors available if required. The Hacienda is a great place for exclusive use for special occasions. The Hacienda’s 2024 season is March 15 – Nov 15. The Hacienda is available for exclusive buyouts during the off season. Both of the Hacienda’s Private Pool Villas are open all year.
