Hacienda Buena Vista

This classic and impressively constructed Spanish finca boasts a unique and extremely privileged position, perched on a secluded private hillside with superlative views of the expansive Sierra de Aracena stretching for many miles on either side, Hacienda Buena Vista is an idyllic oasis and the perfect holiday home for that very 'Special Occasion'.

Designed and constructed to exacting high standards, evidence of the meticulous attention to detail can be seen in the quality of the wood, ceramics and décor where a sympathetic blend of both traditional and modern materials creates a welcoming family home very much in harmony with its rural surroundings. Great care has been taken to retain vaulted ceilings, open fireplaces, ancient beams and original stone floors, to name but a handful of the distinctive features. Large rooms throughout offer ample space and there is a seemingly endless choice of quiet corners and shaded terraces to seek out with a drink and a good book.

Perhaps the highlight of this exceptional property is the outdoor saltwater swimming pool, where near 360º degree views can be enjoyed, and that's not to mention the heated indoor spa pool! In addition to the manicured lawns, mature trees and shrubs that grace the surrounding gardens, there are extensive orchards spreading down the hillside and to the sides of this imposing finca, providing total seclusion and solitude for anyone staying here, which also makes it the ideal 'venue' for large family gatherings or for anyone wishing to celebrate a special birthday, anniversary or wedding. Guests are welcome to plan a range of events or celebrations at Hacienda Buena Vista, and the owners are more than happy to help you do this!

When your roaming instincts get the better of you, the choices are vast. Days out can be spent in nearby Seville, down on the coast in Huelva and even over the border into Portugal, all can be reached within an hour by car.

The scenery around the picturesque and traditional Andalucian region of La Granada de Rio-Tinto makes you believe that you’ve stepped back in time; such is the natural beauty and abundant evidence of how things used to be. Rolling hills draped in olive groves, lush valleys swathed in all varieties of citrus trees and an explosion of wild herbs infusing the air with swathes of pleasing aromas. It’s safe to say that the flora and fauna here is quite staggering.

Another reason for visiting this charming region is the close proximity of Seville, surely one of the most iconic, prettiest and diverse cities in all of Spain. Less than an hour’s drive away, this authentically Spanish city has heaps of breathtaking sights to keep large families of various age groups entertained for hours on end. Visitors are encouraged to stroll through the streets and admire the orange trees, tuck into some delicious tapas, and cross the Guadalquivir river to the neighbourhood of Triana and catch a flamenco show.
