I cannot tell you how wonderful it was to stay with Stefania and Tim in the Blu House in Sliema, Malta. From the very first she swept me into their home and their Iives. I was fed and helped with anything I needed. I got to experience life in a heritage Maltese home with its beautiful stone walls, high ceilings and terraces. The grocery is just a few steps up the street, with others a couple of streets away. The ferry to Valletta and the walk around the Strand are a bit of a walk but I have a walker and I managed it fine. I recommend Oasis Tours because they are well priced and on time and knowledgeable. And they will pick you up at the Police Station right near the Blu House. Stefania and Tim are the ultimate hosts and I recommend their home without reservation. Only one note ... See the provided mosquito repellant as they are bad this year and Maltese houses do not have screens. Stefania, I will miss you. Anne
