About this villa rental
Fantastic house in the Plaza de Doña Elvira, considered the most beautiful in Seville, 5 minutes walk to the Cathedral, in the Historic Barrio de Santa Cruz.
It is a whole house, with garden and private pool.
Its facade overlooks the Plaza de Doña Elvira, 2 minutes from the Royal Alcazares, in the historic center of the city.
Despite being surrounded by restaurants, bars, museums, inside is a haven of tranquility and peace, and its garden is paradise.
The property is entered through an iron gate. You access the garden and pool, and then you reach the entrance door to the Casa Grande with its imposing staircase. We reach the first floor where the kitchen, the completely independent dining room and the large living room are located. Also here is the small room for one person with their bathroom with shower en suite. Decorated with antique furniture and beautiful ceilings and moldings. Then we go up the stairs to the second floor where there are three double bedrooms with their bathrooms and the small living room where the sofa or sofa bed is if necessary. The windows of the corridor face the Plaza with an incredible light.
From the garden, attached to the house, you can access through another door to the Tower.
After climbing a spiral stone staircase, you first access a large terrace overlooking the garden and pool. Then you access the living room, on one side of it you have a bathroom with shower, and on the other side of the living room there is a loft where you can find the kitchen, small living area and the bedroom with two single beds where there is another small terrace giving on the street. Then by the spiral staircase we go up to the main room with en suite bathroom and wonderful views. If we continue climbing, we reach the roof from where you can see the entire Santa Cruz neighborhood, its incredible views and the Cathedral.
It is really one of the houses considered the most beautiful in Seville and unique with garden and pool in this historic neighborhood.

To say the villa is stunning is almost an understatement. It truly felt as if we had three days in our own castle and it will be time that will stay with us forever.
It is in a very serene part of the old town, with beautiful rooms and views. The spiral staircase up to the tower is a bit of a long, semi-intimidating walk (especially with luggage) and not best for people with mobility issues. However, the stairs in the rest of the house were very accessible. The air conditioning in the rooms worked extremely well; somehow, the pool was cold even on a 100-degree day!
The company that manages the house is outstanding! They provided several recommendations and helped secure a taxi service to the train station upon our departure. A person in our party left their prescription glasses on a taxi trip back to the bus station. Elena personally reached out to the taxi company several times to track down the glasses and is mailing them back to us in the USA.
If we are lucky enough to visit Seville again I will be returning to this villa!

Our 5 night stay in the house was amazing!
Bang in the heart of Sevilla, it's an ideal base to explore the city from, with the option of returning home to enjoy the peace, space and coolness of the house, garden and pool whenever suits. You are surrounded by great cafes, restaurants, shops and culture and the pool is just brilliant for R&R after taking the city by storm!
We were 7 adults and 3 children, and there was more than enough space for everyone. It's worth noting that there are winding stairs involved in getting to the bedrooms off the tower but the climb is definitely worthwhile! For the generous size of the house and outdoor spaces, the kitchen is relatively small but that isn't a problem as there's no need to spend much time cookng at home when the local gastronomic options are so good.
I'd have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the house for a bonanza Sevilla city break - unforgetable in the best possible way! All communications with the owner were easy and enjoyable - many thanks to Rosario!

We had an amazing stay. A truly sevillian experience. The host was very helpful and the property more than met expectations from its perfect location, its privacy and the views from the tower. We highly recommend this property.

Pictures and words cannot do justice to our magical stay at the Villa Doña Elvira. From the location to the ceiling mouldings, everything was perfection. Tucked in the corner of the Plaza Doña Elvira, the villa is in the historic center, right next to the Cathedral and Alcázar. In the old town, the narrow streets make it impossible for cars to access. So the only downside is having to lug your bags through the cobblestone streets - but it's not far, and arriving at the villa makes it all worthwhile. Designed by the famous Spanish architect, Fernando Chueca, the villa has a private pool (too cold to use when we were there in March), several courtyards and balconies, and a tower with a spiral staircase with 83 steps leading to incomparable views of the city. The worst part was having to leave!

Fabulous Grand Villa in the heart of the old city of Sevilla. Beautiful furnishings surround you, but still make it a comfortable experience. We had our family of 12 with our children and grandchildren and everyone loved it.

This fantastic property right in the thick of Old Town Seville is perfect. Bedrooms large and comfortable, very rare large outside area with pool and great communal space. One draw back was the kitchen but we weren't there to cook so didnt matter. Very easy to contact the friendly host who replied quickly was flexible. We loved our stay.

My family stayed here at the end of August and had an amazing time. Rosario was an excellent host. She was very accommodating around our flight schedule- we traveled with four kids from overseas and she was more than helpful meeting us at off hours! We were very appreciative of this! The house itself is gorgeous and has wonderful Spanish architecture. There was plenty of space for us to spread out and even though we visited during a heat wave- it was 109 degrees one day, the house had air conditioning and a lovely shaded pool that we truly enjoyed. This property is truly a gem.

This villa is spectacular and perfectly situated in the old town. A group of us went for a long weekend and we booked out the whole place. It was perfect walking distance to pretty much everything in Sevilla. The villa had plenty of space for everyone and had so much character. The pool was also so beneficial during the hot days. Amazing stay

We had an absolute fabulous time in the villa, I wish our stay was longer, it was always difficult to decide whether to enjoy the terraces or living rooms or to go out into Sevilla. The views of the cathedral from the rooftop were the best in the city. The house was perfectly clean and comfortable and fit our entire group comfortably. It's easy to have private time away from the group, but there are enough group spaces to gather for meals or just relax.

Great property in maybe the best location in Seville. Note all rooms are twin beds not king size but decor throughout lovely. Elena organised a chef for us one evening which was fantastic but the restaurant under the villa was excellent too. No hesitation in recommending for a group of friends. Thanks!

There were 8 ladies that got together for a week at Dona Elvira. We could not have asked for a more fabulous house! Rosario, was extremely helpful in the lead up to our stay and Elena was always contactable when we wanted any help. We were extremely happy with everything. Thank you Rosario and Elena. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful Villa, Excellent location
This Villa exceeded our expectations. Beautiful Spanish style design with 2 courtyards. The location was wonderful. It made our Sevilla experience outstanding. Be prepared to roll your luggage down a pedestrian area. It was worth it!
