“In amongst Santa Cruz’s winding alleys, this 16th-century mansion is difficult to find, but persevere, it’s definitely worth it. Expect a delightful hotel built around a series of courtyards; the main one, beautiful, cloistered and overlooked by two galleries. Bedrooms are all different, with individual architectural and decorative details, but the style is distinctly Moorish. Some rooms have their own courtyard or terrace; others are duplex. Unfailingly attentive staff.”
