Let me just say, if you are stewing about whether or not to stay at Hotel La Joya just do yourself a big favor and do it. Maybe you are worried about being away from all the restaurants, or having to rent a golf cart or taxis or whatever. I promise you, it doesn't matter. Book it and you will... More

I've never been to Isla before, and my sister and her husband came across La Joya hotel when they did a day trip from Cancun a few years back. They were impressed with the hotel, so we booked our vacation there this year. I really didn't know what to expect, but I trusted there judgement, and went with an open... More

Hotel La Joya is not a normal, tourist hotel. this is a place to get away from the tourist traps and see what Isla Mujeres is like when it's not packaged. It's in a quiet part of the island, near Punta Sur, away from pretty much everything. Rent a gold cart or take cabs....we rented a golf cart and had... More

A nice place. At first, I was surprised to find this on TA under B&B instead of Hotels, but after staying 2 nights I can see why. If you are expecting a standard hotel, with entry on the first level and elevators, this is not the place. But the rooms are nice and hotel-like, with a couple double beds, chairs/table,... More

The Hotel La Joya is a very quiet and private place to be to enjoy a peaceful vacation. The private ocean beach is a rough beach so wear your water shoes but the privacy and the ocean view is unsurpassable. 2 kayaks are avaiable for the adventerous spirit. The white caps are huge so you will be guaranteed a workout... More

We wanted a quiet place to unwind from city life and snorkel. Eric and Paula have just started managing this hotel but still did a remarkable job. When we checked in we were asked when we wanted breakfast and they were usually very good about bringing it on time but who cares? You're on vacation so the coffee, the large... More

WOW! I just got back from a beautiful vacation with my family to Isla Mujeres, Mexico. We stayed at Hotel La Joya. A few words that come to mind when describing La Joya- Unique, Charming, and One-of-a-Kind. My wife and I discovered this gem a year ago when we took a day trip over to the island from Cancun. We...

This hotel is like the photos. People staying here are happy and highly recommend it. Even with kids. The beach is nice, but do bring Teva water shoes as there is a lot of glass at the shoreline near the water that is sharp. The pool was nice and clean. It is a little hike if you carry a lot... More

I think that this must have been the most beautiful place on Isla. The hotel is built up a slope (hence the many steps that others have mentioned) with the pool and balconies looking out over the beautiful sea. The hotel has access to a small cove, but I didn't swim there as there were quite a few sea urchins.... More
