  • Recommended, beautiful house and gardens, interesting paintings. One less star because the large exhibition ion the top floor was entirely in spanish. And go early, it fills up fast!

  • Be sure you get your ticket before you go. There was a long line, but fortunately, we had our tickets. We still had to wait in line, but worth the visit.

  • We love the light is Sorolla's paintings: look at it and you are there on the beach too! And in the garden with beautiful red flowers. Seeing his family photos and the marvelous statues makes their family home alive! I like to see how he has used colour and large strokes of paint. Great painter!!
  • Such a lovely atmosphere! I recognized Sorolla's work but was not familiar enough with him to put this museum at the top of my list. It's such a beautiful house and garden and the feeling there is peaceful and quiet--despite my being chastised by the docent for accidentally bumping into a chair! I listened to the audio tour and still found the laminated cards helpful. The upstairs was closed today. It was a refreshing break after the the Prado and Reina Sofia, especially since it was very inexpensive and I could take all the pics I wanted.
