With its privileged position overlooking the majestic gardens of the Royal Alcázar, this home is steeped in the enchanting beauty of Seville. And with such a regal neighbour (one of the bedrooms even shares a wall with the UNESCO World Heritage site), you’ll find yourself transported to the beating heart of Andalucía. Stepping inside, the ground-floor bedrooms are styled with crisp white linens and set the tone for a truly relaxing stay, while the first-floor kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need to settle in and feel at home. Follow the light upstairs and you’ll find the living room has been thoughtfully designed to fill your stay with luxurious comfort. From the cosy furnishings to the art and books, this is the perfect spot to relax and share quality time together. From here, the space opens up onto two terraces where you can enjoy gilded afternoons on a lounger and dusky-pink sunset drinks – all the while being serenaded by the abundant beauty of the Alcázar gardens. Outside, wander along the maze of narrow streets and alleys of Santa Cruz towards the city’s cultural highlights. Admire the spectacular Moorish architecture whilst pausing for traditional tapas in a tiny taberna... or fancy cocktails in a cutting-edge bar. Wherever the day takes you, this home makes it easy to enjoy the artistic depth and splendour of Seville.
