We loved our stay here, a family of 4. A 40 minute ride (taxi 40 euros) from the airport. Stunning views from the pool across Melieha Bayand lovely views from the little apartment balcony. The pool is only a few steps away from the balcony which is fab, easy to nip back down for toilet breaks and drinks etc. Miriam is wonderful, she is such a pleasure to deal with and will happily help you with anything you require. The area is gorgeous, not as touristy as other locations but plenty of restaurants, bars and little shops within walking distance, the square bar opposite the apartment near the church is amazing with lots of locals. A 25 minute walk down hill to the fabulous beach which is full of bars, restaurants and little shops and loads of beach activities, we had great days down there. It is harder walking back up hill but good exercise or you can jump on the bus if you don't want to for only 2 euros each. The buses are great, 2 euros wherever you go and if you can't be doing with that then uber's will come straight to the door. We highly recommend visiting Mdina the old capital and popeye village while here.
