Testimonials
Following the strong recommendation of a local resident of Mijas Costa, we resolved to take his advice and dine at Vista Del Mar.
It is fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere overlooking a beautiful pool by the sea. The Chef is obviously very skilled and has very high standards. Our arrival was warm and welcoming. The prices are very reasonable given the quality on offer.
If its great food and wines at very reasonable prices, you will not be disappointed and we thoroughly recommend Vista Del Mar. You will be as delighted we were. The best food we have tasted on our weeks visit to Riviera.

Very, very good - will most definately be back and will pass the word amongst my friends and business associates locally
Susan (Local resident)
Whilst on Honeymoon at Club La Riviera Da Sol, Nr Fuengeirola, my wife and I visited the Vista Del Mar Restaurant at Miraflores (Beach Side)
Dave, Jayne and the Team made us very welcome on our arrival. We sat down and took in the most beautiful views of the sea from the terrace whilst browsing the excellent Menu options.
My Wife Lisa ordered the Stuffed Peppers followed by Chicken with Mozzerella and Ham filling finished off with a home made Strawberry & Passion Fruit Cheesecake. I sat down to Pan Fried Black Pudding followed by Sirloin Steak Served on the best Potato Gratin ever tasted and finished off with White Chocolate Nemesis & Coconut Sorbet. All the desserts are home made and are very tasty.
We re-visited the Vista Del Mar a further two times during the week working through the Menu. Dave and Jayne were always happy to see us and always found time for a chat and a tasty Sangria!
A must for everyone to visit either whilst on holiday or people now living in Spain.
See you in October team.

UKCalahonda Lions Change Over Night
On Saturday 16th June the Calahonda Lions gathered for their Change Over Dinner at the Vista del Mar Restaurant at Miraflores Playa.
The members and guests enjoyed a delicious dinner in the beautiful setting of the Vista del Mar Restaurant overlooking the pool and the sea.
The dinner served was a choice of Thai inspired food, which I can testify to being absolutely delicious, or a more traditional fayre of hake and chips, which I have on good authority, was also very nice.
Fortunately the rather strong winds that had prevailed during the day eased off and we were able to enjoy the calming and relaxing atmosphere out on the terrace.
A great big thank you go to Dave and Jayne and the rest of the staff for making our evening another enjoyable social event for the Calahonda Lions.

Have just been to see what all the leaflets and mijas Costa write ups where about, we found a tastefully decorated restaurant where we tried the lamb wrap and a steak sandwich , all in all it was the best lunch I have had , being just the right amount of food , cooked to a high standard leaving me full without the bloating feeling and a nice beer to wash it down , will call soon to see what the evenings have to offer , good to note it’s a wi-fi hotspot too, truly a modern restaurant ,

Went for lunch last week, wow the setting is fabulous. Looking onto the pool, then the sea. The restaurant is in Miraflores, recommend for special occasions.

The special nights look good BBq and Spanish and they are not a bad price.

Our testimonial ....
'Having owned in Playa for 5 years, this is the first year that the bar and restaurant have made a contribution to our holiday! Previously it has either been closed or sub standard, but Jayne and Claudia and the new team have made such a difference - the buffets are excellent as well as great value for money and the service has been so friendly. We wish you all success at Vista del Mar'
Sam's testimonial ....
'Slush Puppies are excellent'
Hi Team, As promised we returned in October for another week of Sun Sea Sand and Vista Sangria, this time with our 4 year old Daugther Lucy.
Can i just say that once again you guys have excelled yourselves it was not only lovely to see you all but also great to sample the latest menu which Chris has done you guys proud with.
I settled down to the fishcakes followed by the Braised Lamb and where do i start, The fishcakes were perfectly cooked and served to perfection with the accompanying dressings it was a delight and made me eager to crack on with my Lamb, Which as ever was cooked to perfection and so tender it melted in the mouth, served with the nicest of accompaniments which went down a treat. Unfortunately i found it difficult at this point not to have a dessert and chose the Eaton Mess which was so good half way through i was stuffed but refused to leave such a excellent sweet so it was eaten and i was then completely stuffed but at the same time very impressed, so please pass on my thanks to Chris in the kitchen as i know Chefs tend to get forgotten about.
So if your reading this review then you must be considering giving the vista a shot, my advice to you is turn off your computer pick up the phone and make a booking as if there is anywhere else in the Costa better than the Vista i will eat my hat. Get down there and see Dave and Jayne for the best meal you WILL EVER have i assure you, you will not be disappointed.
So gang that just leaves me to say Thank you very much from all of us and keep up the good work. We will be back early next year and people keep an eye out for the next instalment of the reviews which i am convinced will be as good as ever.
Love and Best Wishes to Jayne, Dave, Claudia, Chris, and Jeremy.
Lee, Lisa, and Lucy Anne

You have made 2 of our evenings very enjoyable and we wish you every success and hope to see you on our next visit next April
Mrs Susan Hirst
The menu is not vast, but the dishes are all bursting with flavour thanks to the freshest ingredients and clever combinations on offer
Christine Kane
Good food, good view over the curved pool area to the sea, indoor or outdoor dining depending on weather and preference - and all at very reasonable prices.
Len Webb
You may struggle to find a place to enjoy a meal with a seaview.…. I have been living here for over 15 years and never knew there was a Restaurant here.........WHAT A JEWEL......We will most DEFINATELY be back! Thanks Dave 'n' Jayne
Chris Bradford
The first thing that grabs your attention at Vista del Mar is the stylish interior and the wonderful view after which, of course, the restaurant is named. Sitting in the lounge bar with a glass of the fresh and crisp house white wine, picking at succulent and spicy olives was certainly not a hardship on a sunny Sunday evening. The bar, indoor dining room and the terrace dining area all share the panoramic views, giving diners a pleasant outlook across the swimming pool, landscaped gardens and out to the sea.The second thing to assail our senses was the gorgeous smells coming from the kitchen
EuroWeekly Editorial
The food was irresistible and I couldn´t help but struggle through a small second helping. Although this finished me off completely and when owner Jayne offered me the additional dessert menu all I could do was stare at the mouth watering choices.
STEAK NIGHT - John Healy
These are not just puddings, but delicious desserts!
Candice
All in all a delicious meal, in idyllic surroundings, child friendly – what more can you ask for? See you next Sunday!
Colin
Is Sunday your special day to relax? Looking for a place to chill out, with good food in a relaxed atmosphere? Then look no further than Vista del Mar, in Miraflores.
A truly hidden treasure the Vista del Mar has what we think is probably the best Sunday Lunch on the coast. All the meat is freshly cooked and the flavour is unbeatable.
Ken Young
We all thoroughly enjoyed the steak night and look forward to spending another evening with you and Jayne soon
Sandra Mellule Key to Mijas Costa magazine
Many thanks for your hospitality - the perfect end to a great week
We all said that it was a pity we had not made use of the entertainment midweek - but I am sure we will make up for it next time.Unfortunately Saturday morning ws a bit of a wash out and with our flight not until 5.00 in the afternoon we made the best use of time looking at some other rental properties which "neighbours" owned. So if you get people coming saying Robin told me to come here - you know where it came from. - we've spread the word.It would seem there is still a big untapped market for you.
If you want some feedback - other than what I've said above - you have free licence - just a pity we never took any photos of the evening.
On a final note - some feedback on your website - TOP NOTCH !!
Really excellent - says it all - once again I only hope all your efforts bear fruit.
Robin Allis
