Exceptional friendliness of the staff. Fantastic location and atmosphere, decorated with great taste with reference to nature and birds. Even up to the "Malvasia Egg", a very original dessert creation to discover absolutely!

The place is so different with a wild west sand avenues, next to bird filled marsh. The views across are spectacular, particularly with sunrise and sunset. It is so romantic to walk along the promenade, and then sit and listen to the sound of the marsh. The area has a magical feel that is only felt by visiting. I have been going for over 20 years on and off, although it has expanded, and changed, the local people are still friendly.
There are a range of restaurants, although you do have to look around if you are vegetarian or vegan, but there are 1 or 2 that do serve that kind of food. Two in particular stood out, Restaurante Casa Marcelo, and the helpful and excellent Jose. Food was amazing, unfortunately we only found it the day before we were leaving. If you are into meal, highly recommended. An excellent vegetatian restaurant, highly recommended La Canaliega.

What a unique place. No paved roads ( by design ) all sand.
What a unique place. No paved roads ( by design ) all sand. Horses, carts and donkeys. Fascinating and unique spot next to a National park. Weekends VERY busy and lively. Might be boring after a few minutes during the week. A town of less than two thousand people that can swell to a million during pilgrimages.
It’s like a carnival- never seen anything like it. Easy to walk around town.

It's the most unusual town I've seen where the "roads" are sandy as horses seem to be the preferred mode of transport. It's got the Doñana National Park tours available within walking distance of the centre (private and group tours) and a lovely square in front of the church overlooking a lake which fills with water in winter. Bird watching is a "must".

El Rocio, a surreal Andalusian town, left me awestruck. The tranquil marshlands, wild horses, sandy streats and striking buldings create an otherworldly atmosphere. It's a serene haven amidst the vibrant region of Andalusia, where nature reigns and surprises around every corner.

We chose El Rocio for an overnight stay due to a trip between Tavira, Portugal and Málaga, Spain. We were very surprised to learn El Rocio was a horseback-riding hub and that its dusty streets and Western-themed houses seemed to come straight out of a Hollywood Western! El Rocio is a very unique town!

Wonderful surprise of a town.
Wonderful surprise of a town. Totally dedicated to horses and donkeys. All roads and lanes are sand (for horse feet) and nearly every building has wooden or metal railing to tie up your horse! Birdwatching paradise. Would be 5 out of 5 if the local council graded the roads to get rid of the bad bumps and holes. Not good.
The location was great, in the main plaza. However, was quiet at night and the air conditioning was functioning well. The hotel interior and exterior design were typical Andalusian style which made for an authentic experience. We were given a room with a balcony overlooking the main square and it was wonderful to watch the horses pass by in the evening. Overall we really enjoyed it, the staff members were very friendly. We would consider staying there again next time.
We were very surprised by the location in El Rocio (because we just chose on the map somewhere near the entrance to the Donana nature reserve). We were upgraded to their location in the center, which didn't look much from the front but appeared to be a little 'palace' inside. The breakfast was basic but good. Personnel was very friendly. Donana wetlands on your doorstep!
A unique situation, with very pleasant staff, and a lovely ambiance. Nice restaurant, with excellent and copious food. El Rocio is a very nice surprise, quite different but very interesting, the lake adds very much to the place.
Close to the lake. Staff.
El Rocio is like a western town, all sand and horse and carriage a common transport.
But it's also on a little lake with flamingos.
