Hacienda de San Rafael, Las Cabezas De San Juan

Hacienda de San Rafael is a 3-star stop for travellers who want a calmer base in Las Cabezas de San Juan, Spain, without giving up practical comforts. Set on Carretera Nacional IV (KM 594), the hotel suits guests arriving by car and works well for road-trip itineraries through Andalusia. The overall guest impression is strongly positive, with a 9.6/10 score from 23 reviews, and many visitors point to the welcoming feel and attentive service when they arrive after a day on the road.
