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!

Everything I had hoped for, and more

When we arrived in this beautiful property we were speachless! The building is amazing and offers a lot of wonderful places inside and outside for a relaxing time. One of the best rentals I‘ve ever stayed!

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!

Excellent location

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.
