The villa was lovely and as described. The area feels very safe, although it is elevated (hence the great views which are lovely both day and night) and it's worth being aware that the nearest shops and bus stop are about a mile away (it didn't bother us as the walk is pleasant enough and got some daily exercise in) and it is Malta and so is naturally quite windy at times. The property is planted with some beautiful plants/trees so it's worth taking the time to walk around and enjoy those.

Other than that everything is as you would expect, nice rooms, useful kitchen with everything you need, lovely lounge area which comfortably seated all of us, plenty of towels (including for the pool which is a bonus when you're flying with only hand luggage).

There were 6 of us in our group in ages ranging from 38 to 80 (albeit a pretty active 80 yr old!) and we all found the villa comfortable and enjoyable. If you do go I would it is useful to either a) enjoy walking, b) hire a care or c) be happy to make the most of the villa and enjoy a quiet break without going too far.

In Malta the buses will get you everywhere and we easily reached Valletta and Gozo as well as exploring the local area. (Tip: I'd recommend the tourist buses in Gozo but do haggle as 18 euro per person is too much (we got a significantly reduced price for our group) as the local buses will take you to all the same places albeit they will be busier.)

We travelled toward the end of May and all in all we enjoyed our 5 night break and found time to unwind and still get out and about to enjoy a few of the sights.
