The Restaurant
Vila Joya, a cliffside boutique hotel and restaurant near Albufeira, offers a dining experience that feels like ascending to culinary heaven. Austrian chef Dieter Koschina has helmed the kitchen since 1991, earning the restaurant two Michelin stars, a distinction it has held since 1999. Koschina masterfully blends classic Central European techniques with Portugal's vibrant flavors, crafting a daily-changing tasting menu that showcases the freshest ingredients. The setting is equally impressive; the dining room extends to an open-air terrace overlooking the Atlantic, providing stunning views to complement the exceptional cuisine. Vila Joya's commitment to culinary excellence and its idyllic location combine to create an unforgettable experience.
