Overlooking olive groves that sweep down to the Mediterranean, Villa La Joia is in a tranquil location within easy reach of the attractions of the Costa Daurada. From ancient Roman sites to exciting theme parks, from spectacular mountain peaks to the sand dunes and wetlands of the Ebro Delta - there is something for everyone.

Breakfast on the upper terrace, lunch under the shady carob tree, a barbecue in the evening or a family meal around the large kitchen table – Villa La Joia is perfect for enjoying the best of local produce with friends and family.
The region produces flavoursome olives, beautiful honey and the freshest fish and shellfish from the Ebro Delta and from the local fishing fleet based in nearby L’Ampolla. With a choice of local supermarkets, bakers, butchers and markets nearby, shopping for produce is a pleasure.
There are also plenty of cafes and restaurants within a short drive for those who prefer to let someone else the do cooking.
On the Doorstep
Villa La Joia can be reached by public transport and taxi, but to enjoy this part of Catalonia, a car is recommended.
Beyond the coves and beaches of the Costa Daurada there are mountains, wetlands and rivers to explore.
Quaint villages and busy market towns are all within a short drive, while the bright lights of Barcelona and Valencia are both less than 2 hours drive away.
