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.
El Rocío is unique. On Saturday night it can get loud with all the revelry of the many brotherhoods there to pay respect to the patron, but Pepe and Antonio’s place is away from most of the action. I don’t know how they keep the rooms so clean with all dirt streets; no pavement anywhere.
Great birding in March.
Not like any other town in Spain; everyone decked out on horseback.
The location was fantastic in a very beautiful street near the main squares. El Rocío is a quite unique place and well worths a visit even if you don't go there for religion. The recepcionist, Rocío, was very kind. The room was bright and spacious and had a very nice terrace. The breakfast was quite reasonable for the price. Free parking on the street.
Nice place to stay in El Rocio. The Casa Rural is beautifull and very autentic. It's located in a very quiet part of town within walking distance of restaurants, bars, the promenade and La Ermita del Rocio. Helpfull and friendly owner. Lot's off free parkingspace closeby.
We've requested a room with lake view, and we got it. We had an amazing view on the lake on both balconies. The staff was friendly en spoke English. Breakfast was available nearby (not at hotel), but we know that on forehand. Room was clean and comfortable.
The apartment is in a very large building near restaurants and the sites of El Rocío. It's clean, spacious air conditioned and fully equipped for cooking a small meal. The bed is very comfortable and the room is bright. Lola gave us great tips for the area
The location if fantastic, in the middle of El Rocio. The hotel is very nice, all very new, really clean room, nice bathroom and most important very comfortable bed.
We did not use the breakfast so cannot tell how that is.
Facing the lake - clean, traditional. Friendly check-in. Fantastic view of lake, lakefront plaza and the cathedral from the patio. Fun to tromp through El Rocio’s sandy streets.
Owners very friendly and welcoming. Well appointed small apartment with sun terrace.
Well positioned to explore the nature reserve and coast. It was the best place we stayed in Spain.
The reception staff were all very pleasant and helpful. The position in the centre of El Rocio was perfect. The free coffee in the afternoon after an excursion was a welcome touch.
