About this property

Grand Harbour, Valletta, Malta - sleeps six

The perfect base for your self-catering holiday in Malta, our apartment is situated on Dahlet Gnien Is-Sultan ('the Site of the Sultan's Garden') just outside the city walls of old Valletta, a World Heritage City, and within easy reach of all facilities and transport links. On the quayside just below us is the new fast ferry terminal to Gozo (takes 45 mins, every 2 hours - foot passengers only) and ferries across to the Three Cities.

The apartment has a balcony and large roof terrace, sleeps up to 6 people and is newly refurbished throughout with modern, stylish furniture and new appliances. Click on the photos section to see the interior, views and surrounding area (but our full 180-degree view was too big to upload!)

The apartment sleeps up to a maximum of 6 people and has one double bedroom, one twin bedroom and two double sofa beds in the living room. Modern and stylish bath/shower room, and a second guest toilet.

The accommodation is spacious - 142 sq metres or 1,525 sq ft - light and airy throughout with traditional Maltese features such as the rustic wooden shutters on the windows and balcony doors. There is a separate TV lounge with 120-channel XLHD cable TV. There is free internet access with unlimited data usage. Ample bed linen and towels are provided but please bring your own beach towels.

Large kitchen/breakfast room with lots of character (1960s retro-style) and a dining table seating six, fully equipped including coffee maker, kettle, toaster, washing machine, ironing facilities. We can provide a Welcome food pack containing tea, coffee and sandwich-making provisions for your arrival, if you wish.

The apartment balcony is small but has a patio-size glazed ceramic and wrought iron table and two chairs - perfect for your morning cup of coffee. The roof terrace, however, is very big with an olive tree, oleander and bougainvillea plants, a large garden table and six chairs where you can take your meals al-fresco, and two sun-loungers with a parasol.

Airport pick-up service by our own drivers. Flexible check-in times. Very friendly and helpful caretaker, maid cleaning prior to arrival and on departure.
This apartment's great location gets high marks from our customers. During your stay, you're just a quick walk from Malta Experience. You'll find features like laundry facilities. The apartment includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.

This apartment exceeded expectations!! Amazing location right on the harbour just a few minutes walk from the gozo ferry and the centre of Valletta. Great size. We were a family of 5 adults but were very comfortable. Everything you needed was supplied and the host and caretaker looked after us and for a reasonable fee supplying food on arrival and organizing transport from the airport which was amazing. We were all so happy with our stay!

Comfortable beds and quiet! A delightfully large apartment with view over the harbour and small sunny balcony The brilliant Baraka lift very closeby for access to centre of Valletta or steps (but quite a few!). Ferries to Gozo and the Three Cities close by too.Taxi from (and back to) airport arranged by host Sandra worked a treat. No hesitation in fully recommending the flat.

Perfectly located to make the list of Valletta- close to the ferry to Gozo, boats to the three cities and a stone’s throw to bars and restaurants.

We have just spent 3 nights here and wow - what a property! Our host arranged the taxi transfers for us and Sandra, the caretaker was waiting for us when we arrived and showed us around the apartment. We arranged with Sandra for some food for our arrival - milk, bread, cheese, tea/coffee etc. Property was very spacious, clean, good air-con, on a quiet road right near Victoria Gate. Only a few minutes walk to centre of Valleta. Lovely terrace to enjoy a drink on, and also access to a large roof terrace. The views are amazing and we would 100% recommend a stay in this apartment.

Great location!

The stay was great, once we got in!There was some miscommunication about what time we could arrive at the property, which caused a lot of angst because we had booked a full day tour based on what we had thought we had heard about the possibility of leaving our luggage early. After about an hour and some frantic texting, we got in, and it all worked out in the end! Very cute place and great location! Would definitely stay there again!!

Perfect location

In a quiet area, but just a short walk to all the action in town. Overlooks the Grand Harbor. Close to ferries to three cities and Gozo. The only reason i didn't give it 5 stars was because the layout is a little choppy . The living room is small.
