Hacienda Buena Vista, also known as Hacienda Vives (or Buena Vista Plantation in English), was a coffee plantation located in Barrio Magueyes, Ponce, Puerto Rico. The original plantation dates from the 19th century. The plantation was started by Don Salvador de Vives in 1833.[3][4]
The Hacienda is located on 81.79 acres (331,000 m2) of fertile land that includes a humid subtropical forest some 7 miles (11 km) north of Ponce on Route PR-123,[5] in Corral Viejo, a subbarrio of Barrio Magueyes.[5] The plantation house was built in the Spanish Colonial style, with the surrounding buildings being built in the local Criollo style.[6] The original Hacienda covered 482 cuerdas (approx. 468 acres).[2]
It is now owned by the Fideicomiso de Conservación de Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico Conservation Trust), which operates it as a museum which it opened in 1986.
