I stayed in the apartment for 6 weeks for the full month of June and part of July 2022. I’m a New Yorker and wanted to give living in Malta a try. Let’s just stay I plan to return more permanently as soon as I get the nomad work permit.
The apartment is an alcove studio vs. a 1-bedroom, which was fine for me. The apartment is modern, new and clean. The patio is awesome though it was hot out there in the day. There is a laundry room in the basement which I used weekly and house cleaning came in weekly as well.
It’s located in a charming part of Sliema. Everything you need is there. There are tons of little grocery stores and restaurants around. You’re a 5 min walk from Balluta and a 10 min walk from the Sliema waterfront where all the action is. If you want to get lots of groceries, there is a Welbee’s that’s a 5 min taxi away. I also joined Fort Fitness gym which was a 10 min walk.
I worked while I was there. I had no issues with the WiFi and I also joined a co-working office community called Soho Malta, which I highly recommend. I loved it there. The walk to the office wasn’t bad but the walk home was up a hill but hey it got me in shape.
The host was also very accommodating. I lost my key one night after midnight and she had someone come and let me in within 10 mins. Overall, I would highly recommend this apartment. If it was cheaper, I would probably live there 6 months a year!
