We had a wonderful stay in Martin's place in Valletta last week. The place is spacious and modern with any facility you could ever require — including a bottle of sparkling in the fridge on arrival! Martin picked us up at the airport and was super helpful and full of advice on what do see, where to eat and drink and any practical questions we had. The house is perfectly situated on the peninsula, which means that you are five minutes from either the sea or the city.
We started most days with a dip in the sea (at the rocks facing the bay and Sliema) and a great coffee at the café facing the flat, which is run by a lovely lady called Vanessa who also graciously helped us with any directions and queries we had about the island.
Malta in general was wonderful and Valletta was the perfect starting point as it is a hub for bus and ferry routes, as well as being a beautiful city. We had the perfect stay and couldn't recommend Martin's hospitality enough.
