The apartment was beautiful and very clean. It takes only 5 minutes to the port. There are many resteraunts, bars and shopping in the immediate area. Also the capital Valetta can be reached by ferry or by bus in a few minutes. The hostess is very friendly and always available. There are some bathing bays at the harbor promenade, but all are made of stone. To get to the big bays a trip by bus or an excursion boat is necessary.
