Fabulous Villa with great panoramic views

Beautiful stay with the family. Large outdoor area with great views up the mountain and down to the see. The Villa was well stocked when we arrived. Would happily recommend this as a great place to stay when visiting Mijas.

Perfection!

The property is perfectly located, just a short walk to the centre. It has amazing views of the coast and the shrubbery that surrounds the property makes it private.

Week in September

Villa spotless on arrival. Everything needed for a comfortable stay. Welcome pack, of a few essentials greatly appreciated. Property manager, Maurice, went above and beyond to make our stay a good one. Pueblo, only 10/15 mins walk, to a good selection of bars/restaurants. Overall a great week, weather a little indifferent, but we made the most of our time.

Perfect Villa

Had a fantastic week, we have been coming to Mijas for the last 20 years but never stayed on this side of the town, perfect location 15 minute walk into town coming home the last 20 meters is steep but easily walkable, we are all over 50 years old. Maurice was a superstar, his flexibility meeting us with the keys by and the supplies he left for us made a great start to our holiday. Amazing outside space and perfect for six people can’t fault it in anyway would stay again.

Excellent villa - shame about the building works

The property is a 20 minute walk from the centre of Mijas and located on a steep hill. You either need use of a car or to be fit and healthy. Communication with the property manager Maurice was excellent. Comprehensive welcome pack on arrival. Villa presented well and was both clean and air conditioned. Numerous seating areas outside, 6 good quality padded sun beds and a nice pool. Views are excellent albeit a little blocked by trees and overgrown hedging in front of the railings. There is a small drive which provides off-road parking for one car. Overall we had an excellent stay at the villa and would recommend. Unfortunately there were busy building works in the property opposite which did rather spoil the peace and quiet. Had we known about this we wouldn’t have booked.

Absolutely Perfect

We have just returned from a wonderful 10 night stay in La Joya, a family of 4 adults and 2 young children.. Communication from the owner, Paul from booking the Villa was excellent and we had contact with Maurice, the property manager prior to our departure. Our trip didn't get off to the best start as our flight was delayed by 9 hours! We were in constant contact with the wonderful Maurice and he was extremely reassuring, monitored our flight and met us at the property and ensured we not only had a house welcome pack but some extras too for which we were so grateful. The Villa is perfect, everything you could possibly need and Maurice on hand to help with anything. Outside space is lovely, great pool and fabulous views. We walked into the Pueblo most days, a nice walk which takes around 10/15 minutes. We did walk back on most occasions too, just the hill up to the house which is steep, but only around 150yards but fine if you are relatively active and take your time. Taxi's only around 5 euros though and we did use them especially on the very hot days. Family used public transport down to the coast, good service, only around 15/20 mins and good value. We have stayed in Mijas Pueblo on a number of occasions, but previously in a Hotel, we will be back but will hopefully use La Joya, either as a family or a couple. Absolutely perfect

One of the best villas we've stayed

Maurice met us at the billa ,nothing was too much trouble for him very helpful when my phone was damaged. Villa was modern and very clean, views were spectacular. Only word of caution to anyone with walking difficulties the 100 metres or so down to main road was very steep, fortunately taxi back from village only around 5 euros. My wife is already asking me to check availability to return.

Another Wonderful Stay

This was our second trip to this beautiful villa and it was just as fabulous as the first time. The location is perfect for walking into the pueblo, the house and gardens are immaculate and the views are stunning. We feel so relaxed and refreshed when we’re there and are about to book our third trip next year! Paul is so helpful, flexible and quick to respond to any questions we may have, as is Maurice during our stays. Hasta la próxima vez!

Sheer Bliss

From the moment we booked Paul could not be more helpful. He answered any query we had promptly and nothing seem too much trouble. On arrival we were greeted by the wonderful Maurice. He insured that we immediately felt at home and that we understood where everything we might need was. The Villa itself is stunning, spacious and spotlessly clean. The garden is secluded with breathtaking views and really well thought out in terms of layout. There is a small pool and 5 or 6 different seating areas around the garden that allow you to either follow or shade from the sun throughout the entire day. We were in Spain for a wedding and although the villa only sleep 6, it was absolutely perfect for hosting other guests during the days and evenings. Without question 10/10 and have already booked to go back next year.

Fantastic Villa!

We have just returned home after a fantastic stay in an amazing villa!! ‘La Joya’ just ticked every box. The outside space with spoilt for choice seating areas to the most amazing views! The Villa was exceptionally clean and well equipped and there was nothing that had not been thought about. Maurice was there to greet us at the property and was just a text away if you needed anything. We would have know hesitation in recommending this villa at all to anyone. Will definitely be returning. Amazing!

Amazing villa in a stunning location

We had a family holiday in this stunning villa. The outdoor spaces are incredible and photos do not do it justice. Clean, modern and everything you need for a relaxing family holiday. Paul was on hand to answer any questions before our stay and Maurice was welcoming and so helpful throughout our stay. This is our second holiday in Mijas and we will definitely be back.

Wonderful villa

Highly recommend this villa, very clean very comfortable and more equipped than most villas! There is everything you need and more. Maurice met us and was really knowledgeable with the area and communication was very good. Yes there is a steep incline to the property but we found it ok after a few deep breaths! You don’t need a car but we hired one and did go to the local Aldi in the car. Mijas is wonderful and very friendly so overall highly recommend and would love to return!

Villa La Joya

This was our second stay at La Joya and it didn’t disappoint! As usual Maurice and his wife made a wonderful job of preparing the villa, very clean and tidy with a well stocked fridge (thank you!) They even managed to accommodate our early arrival which was also very much appreciated. The villa itself is beautiful, a real home from home with everything you need. There are multiple outside spaces to soak up the sun, eat and relax. Very peaceful with beautiful views. Mijas pueblo is just a short walk from the villa and very picturesque with lots of bars and restaurants. The walk back up the hill to the villa is steep and we did cheat and get a taxi a couple of times, €6 but worth it. We would definitely recommend La Joya and hope to be back again sometime. 😎

Perfect relaxing holiday

The villa was comfortable and clean and the check in and out faultless. Lovely selection of goodies provided by host - many thanks. The outside terraces provided so many places to soak up the sun, relax and enjoy the spectacular views. The outside dining area was lovely for alfresco lunch and dinner and plenty of chairs and sun beds for us all. The village is a ten minute walk with beautiful views down to the sea. We always took a taxi back (€5) as the hill from the road to the villa was a bit steep for carrying any shopping. Maurice, who welcomed us, was super helpful and pleasant and accommodated our request for slightly early checkin and slightly later checkout, which was a godsend for us. Thank you so much for letting us stay at your beautiful villa.

Fabulous Trip

We had a fabulous time at this beautiful property. It looks lovely in the photos but it’s even better in real life. An idyllic courtyard setting with fantastic views to the coast. We loved both inside and out. The extensive welcome pack was much appreciated by us weary travellers! The owner, Paul, was very friendly and prompt at responding to any queries we had, and flexible when we needed a date / time change. Maurice, who looks after the villa for Paul, was also very friendly and helpful and it was nice to meet him and his lovely family too. We’re already looking forward to our next trip to magical Mijas.

About the host

Hosted by Paul

Host profile image
We are from the UK and had visited Mijas several times to stay with friends and we grew to love the area, the sunshine and the relaxed way of life.
We bought the villa in 2013 and renovated it over the following year.
It is the perfect setting and location for a relaxing holiday.
Being able to walk into the village was a huge plus for us with many bars, restaurants and leisure activities all close by.
The villa is clean, modern and bright inside and the outside space is large with several areas for relaxing, eating and sunbathing all with lovely views.
