The Host was very good at communication- excellent! Professional and prompt.
The view was spectacular and the apartment was as pictured. Depending on your plans this location can be great! If you want a few beach days, Mehliaha (spelling?) Beach is 15 minutes by bus. This is one of the only sandy beaches on Malta so it is nice to be close if you want a lot of beach days. It was easy to rent a lounge and umbrella and there is a nice restaurant at the end of the beach with good facilities.
The bus stop is right outside the door of the apartment and bus service is good throughout the mainland.
If you want to spend a lot of time in Valletta it will take a little longer by bus (~45 minutes). I took Michael's advice and downloaded Bolt. They were great and cost was not too high. Now that Uber is also available the rates may come down because of the competition. Bolt made getting to Valletta and other parts of the island MUCH quicker! 20 minutes by Bolt to Valletta. I was there for a month and used the bus a lot but on very hot days, or when I was going to the temple sites on the south side of the island I took Bolt. Coming back to the apartment from Valletta by bus at night was easy because the main bus terminal is right outside the main gate of the old town of Valletta (near the Triton Fountain).
You can also take the bus to Sliema and then the ferry to Valletta. That was a nice way to get to Valletta too.
There was an issue with the electricity because the town was doing service to the area. Michael and his father were very responsive and addressed it quickly and to my satisfaction.
If having a beautiful view to return to each night after long days of touring is important to you this is a perfect location for you!!
Thanks Michael!
Enjoy Malta!!
