Close to FRS Jet boat service

A very pleasant and enjoyable stay, located inside the old walled city. Lots of history here with beautiful beaches and colorful kite surfers. Also a short walk to the FRS jet boat that puts you in Tangier’s Africa in 30 minutes and on to Casablanca on a modern high speed train in about 2 hrs. Tarifa is a very relaxed small city that still has the old world charm. I spent another day and night here after my Casablanca tour and would definitely stay again.

Pessima sistemazione

Hotel situato in un vicolo della zona centrale di Tarifa. Personale accogliente, camera poco confortevole, piccolissima e priva di privacy per via della finestra sulla strada al piano terra e la posizione nelle vicinanze della reception. Bagno piccolissimo e privo di privacy. Non c'è la colazione. Non c'è parcheggio. Prezzo altissimo per la qualità offerta.

Spain 2019

This is a very inexpensive hotel but it was clean and spacious. It is right in the heart of the old part of Tarifa and close to the port to take the ferry to Tangier. It is closed each day from 14:00 to 17:00 so you may need to plan your arrival to check in.

a great little hotel to enjoy Tarifa

La Joyita is small, only 5 rooms. Each room has its own character (pink room, green room, etc.). It is just behind the cathedral in the NE corner of the walled city. It only takes 15 min to go out to the causeway that divides the Med and the Atlantic. Lots of great restaurants, including the Bar El Frances where we had a wonderful supper (it's known for its tapas). Super place to kite surf. Nearby are the Roman ruins at Balonia

Really Nice Hotel

There was an unfortunate mix-up with the number of nights we were staying, but that doesn't take away from the place itself. Room and property were clean and very nicely appointed. Only negative about the property was that it was very difficult to locate even with the directions.

great little place very friendly

A lovely place to stay right in the heart of the action in the old town but down a quieter side street. The owner was very friendly and offered helpful tips and spoke good English. The room was clean, the colours a bit too bright but comfortable. Just beware that the doubles are good for couples and single travellers, but the bathroom is linked to the main room and not behind a separate door.

The receptionist was very informative and kind. The hotel was in a great location and clean. The WiFi was OK in some areas of the room. The room was not of the value of the rate charged. The bathroom was clean, but the toilet was in the shower within a very small space that was all glass offering no privacy. The mattress was basically on the floor with a wooden box around it. Sheets were very clean.

excellent location, very nice and helpfull staff

The location of the hotel right in the old town of Tarifa is excellent, very close to bars, restaurants and the harbor. Even so it is surprisingly quiet because the hotel lies in a little side road. Parking first seemed to be complicated, but after short time you know where to find good parking spots within minutes of walking time to the hotel (for example the waterfront of Plaza Miramar). The rooms are small but with practical room layout. Hotel staff is very friendly and extremely helpfull for finding good restaurants oder interesting spots in and about Tarifa. Would go there again anytime !
