Planning a corporate seminar in Seville and Huelva: seasons, venues and ideas

Seville combines heritage, large venues and an intense cultural life. Around the city, haciendas offer a countryside setting for executive retreats, while the Huelva coast offers seaside resorts with meeting rooms and accommodation on site.

Seville airport (SVQ) serves the main area. The airports of Huelva and Faro, in Portugal, are also very convenient for the coast: we arrange your journeys from either one, as well as between Seville and the various resorts.

• October to December and spring, April to June: the most flexible periods for seminars in Seville and on the coast, with pleasant temperatures.
• July and August: the Sevillian heat makes evenings the highlight, and the Huelva coast lives up to its summer atmosphere on the beaches.
• Winter: we align your date with each resort's calendar for a seaside retreat.
• Feria de Abril: every year, two weeks after Easter, in late April, Seville comes alive. We plan your dates in advance to enjoy the city at its most festive.

Between city, countryside and seaside, every venue has its place:

• Barceló Sevilla Renacimiento, in the city: over 5,000 m² of meeting space across 35 flexible salons, including the 1,024 m² Sevilla salon for 1,200 people in theatre style.
• Barceló Punta Umbría Beach Resort, on the Huelva coast: a 4,000 m² convention centre, 23 meeting spaces opening onto terraces and gardens, and the 1,176 m² Auditorium.
• Hacienda Benazuza, in Sanlúcar la Mayor: a country estate with meeting spaces and a conference room, ideal for a retreat away from the bustle.
• Hotel Alfonso XIII, a Luxury Collection Hotel, in the historic heart of Seville: a historic setting for your sessions and receptions, with accommodation on site.

The region is best tasted at the table:

• Abantal, near the centre of Seville: a gastronomic restaurant with two tasting menus, a private room and a chef's table for ten at the heart of the kitchen.
• Doña Gamba, in El Rompido, on the Huelva coast: the seafood house known for Huelva's white prawns and the shellfish of the bay.
• La Terraza del EME, in Santa Cruz: the rooftop of the EME Catedral, with a direct view of the Giralda, for a cocktail or an open-air dinner.
• Tablao El Arenal, in the centre of Seville: a flamenco show of about an hour and a half, during a seated dinner.

• Real Alcázar of Seville: a visit of the Mudéjar palace outside public opening hours, arranged for your group or event.
• Doñana by 4x4: about two and a half hours through the park's marshlands, departing from Sanlúcar de Barrameda, with a local guide-driver, in a small group.
• Kayaking in Punta Umbría: a two-and-a-half-hour outing through the marshes and the nature reserve, ideal for an active team.

The sherry bodegas of Jerez, within easy reach of Sanlúcar, also make a rewarding tasting day.

The budget for a seminar in Seville and on the Huelva coast depends on the season, the hotel category, the size of the group and the transfers. A city congress, a hacienda retreat or a coastal incentive each have their own balance.
