Hacienda de San Rafael

About Hacienda de San Rafael

Halfway between Seville and the coastal city of Cádiz, in the Andalusian countryside, Hacienda de San Rafael occupies a five-acre estate which still serves as a working farm, producing olive oil alongside what’s now a thriving, if still small-scale, hospitality concern. Brothers Anthony and Patrick Reid are also the proprietors of Corral del Rey, in Seville proper, and their talent for human-scale luxury boutique hospitality is just as evident here as it is there. The rooms start out at a very generous 45 square meters, and flank a central courtyard. Their interiors are an eclectic mix of Andalucian, Indian, and Zimbabwean elements, and they’re exceedingly comfortable, with king beds, private verandas, and splendid marble baths. Meanwhile the Casita Suites and Pool Suites take things up a notch or two. They’re really villas, each with a private pool, and each one a self-contained residential experience — and a luxurious one, at that. To this the estate adds three swimming pools, nestled in citrus and olive groves, as well as a pair of outdoor bars and a restaurant that features the best of market-fresh Andalusian cooking. Pair it with Corral del Rey for a powerful city-country combination, or just hole up here and live the good life, Andalusian style.
