Hacienda Dos Olivos

Being cancelled on at the last minute was such a disappointment. It ruined our trip, and I won't recommend this place.

The staff were extremely kind and helpful, and the pool is beautiful. This is a charming estate that gives you a feel for Andalusia, with original furnishings and a stunning olive grove surrounded by nature. Excursions and horseback riding lessons are also available.

A car is essential here, even though Seville is only 30 km away and a quick drive. The accommodation is an authentic Andalusian hacienda among olive trees, with two large bedrooms, a living and dining room, and a kitchen. The bedding is fantastic, and the Wi-Fi is excellent. You can watch horse training in the field beside the building in the mornings, and the stables are a short 100m walk behind the house. A few things could be better: the old, well-used pans are too small, the dishes are a bit outdated, and there are no French satellite TV channels. The very friendly dogs roam around and may try to get inside if you're not paying attention.

My cousins Joanna and Natalia, Fernando, and my dear cousins in general made my stay here truly wonderful. The treatment is exquisite beyond the family connection, and the welcoming atmosphere is open to anyone looking to relax. It's a large equestrian center with endless activities to offer.
