Very expensive but very nice food and wine. Good service! Location is great by the seaand the champagne Always tastes good.in such an environment

Vila Joya was great ... the food was good, service was outstanding, restaurant was beautiful with gorgeous views, and the sunset was amazing. Very relaxing and unpretentious dining, which I appreciate. If you don't care for seafood (which one of us didn't), you may not enjoy it as much, but even for someone with an aversion to seafood, some of... More

To all that love excellent food, excellent service, excellent view, excellent staff, excellent wine menu, excellent food presentation, this is the place. And the good part is that each of the works of art they bring you are different and unique. We always tend to book dinner, but have lunch because you can enjoy the sea view. Outstanding. My best...

Vila Joya is just that an absolute joy. The setting, the food were sensational. We went for a Saturday lunch and had the tasting menu of Grouper, Monkfish, Beef, and caramel and nut dessert.

We had lunch at Vila Joya and were surprised by the great quality of the food and the perfect service. It took us 3 hours to have the tasting menu and we will never forget the many courses and the wines served. Besides all that, the place is beautiful.

From the attention given by the waiting staff , to the quality and presentation of each of the many courses was superb. The many surprises being laid before... More

Have eaten here three times in as many years and only once did we not enjoy our meal. In fairness, this wasn't down to the quality of food, service or setting, all of which are really first rate - we were probably just a little tired. Don't come expecting to be fed and in & out in an hour or... More

Indulged ourselves last week and tried this place out while on a short trip to the algarve, first time in a 2 michelin star restaurant, what a beautiful setting overlooking the atlantic, had the six course tasting menu, top drawer, exceptional flavours, very pricey but to be expected when eating at a restaurant that ranks 37th best in the world,...

This was one of the group of my " must go restaurants" for a long time. I just came from there! The location is incredible, so peaceful and I also love the feeling of being at a house terrace not a restaurant, I mean, its almost like someone has invited you to his amazing house and gave you an incredible...
