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.

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 Budget Option
This isn't a luxury hotel, but no one has told the staff! Though rooms and facilities are basic, Sarafin went above and beyond to make the stay wonderful. He helped us with a restaurant reservation, was very responsive over email, and just generally very friendly. I'd highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a place to stay in Tarifa!

Hotel La Joyita de Tarifa Review
Hotel La Joyita de Tarifa is a cute, funky little place located in a great area of town close to restaurants and shops. The rooms are tidy and neat and there is a great rooftop patio where one can relax with a glass of wine after a day of sightseeing. The proprietor of the hotel was extremely welcoming and full of good information about the local area. Probably the best hotel we stayed in during our trip though Spain!

An excellent find in Tarifa!
What a cool place to stay. Serefin was an excellent host, provided us with great local info and helped us book a tour to Morocco. Our room was comfortable and the hotel is situated at the edge of Old Town and very much within walking distance of most everything of interest in Tarifa.

Made welcome straight away and wished we stayed longer. Staff very helpful with suggestions and knowing what guests needed. Excellent facilities and rooms. Also value for money. Very close to the ferry port if you need to catch an early morning ferry.
