Sehr persönliches, kleines Luxus Hotel. Freundliches Personal, immer hilfsbereit, super Aussicht mit Palmen, einmalige Sonnenuntergänge, Essen wie erwartet überragend, tolle, grosszügige Grün-anlagen um den Pool. Einzige kleine Kritik:EUR 27.50 für einen Aperol-Spritz am Pool scheint mit doch etwas gar teuer zu sein!
Amazing except for the spa-doesn't meet the line of hotel and restaurants

Perfect retreat
Amazing stay at Vila Joya! Two days was not enough. Vila Joya has it all, walking distance to stunning beaches, top notch amenities including a quiet pool, delicious food and superb service.
A localização e os jardins são maravilhosos. O quarto é confortável e o pequeno almoço é muito bom. O acesso à praia é óptimo.
Só não apreciámos o jantar, talvez o chef não estivesse inspirado nesse dia. A salada de peixe servida na esplanada da piscina é excelente, o chef Francisco é extraordinário. Os sumos no restaurante da praia são divinais. O lugar é um verdadeiro paraíso.
We stayed at the Vila Joya for two nights during a two week tour of the Algarve. We loved every minute of our visit and cannot recommend it enough. It really is a very special place.
Litt smårusk i kommunikasjonen, litt feil opplysninger ble gitt.
Treningsrommet var dårlig utstyrt, samt apparater som ikke virket. Sprayen til å rengjøre etter seg var tom i 5 dager
The position of the restaurant terrace overlooking the sea is delightful; we saw some wonderful sunsets. The breakfasts were very good, the evening "degustation" meals were amazing. With the bars by the pool and on the beach there is a good choice of lighter meals as well. The staff were most friendly and welcoming.
Não vejo a hora de voltar!!! Pessoal bacana e super profissional !! Comida maravilhosa!!! O menu degustação foi perfeito!!! O café da manhã maravilhoso com uma vista de tirar o fôlego. Espetacular!!
It came with great fanfare and it surpassed our expectations. It has a great location, beautiful and manicured gardens, but what puts it above most is their personnel, who is serviceable without being intrusive, caring and lovely. The restaurant is food for the ages, the views are eternal.
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts!
It was great to stay there. We have been upgraded and suite was just perfect. Thanks to hotel staff and management. Recomended for those who just want to relax away from everything.Beautiful environment, private beach and sunset. We enjoyed spacious suite, large bathtub with ocean view and great terace. Thanks. Hope to go back soon.
Super Restaurang med fantastisk service och tillhörande OK hotell beläget helt perfekt med fantastisk utsikt över hav och strandliv i lungt område men nära till allt
Atendimento nota 1000, café da manhã exelente, restaurante espetacular e vista de cair o queixo.E que suíte!Hotel fantástico!!!!!! Sem defeito, impecável.
Pluses: Gorgeous facilities (pool, beach, resto, gardens), large rooms, helpful staff, great neighborhood, perfect beach proximity, and of course the restaurant is wonderful. Negatives: We were in room one. The shower/ bathtub is configured strangely so shower was a little uncomfortable to use. Bathroom could use some upgrading generally. Bedroom way too dim. There was just not enough light for a room of that size and the room doesn't get much natural light due to the heavy latticework on the doors. Common areas also very dim. These are minor issues though. On the whole a pleasant place.
