Josettes and Marios Apartment is brand new and the perfect place to be! They are great and sympathic hosts.
We stayed there for two weeks in November with a family of three generations and Josette prepared everything perfectly even for our little one: children's bed and chair as well as funny plates, which she liked a lot. In the kitchen we were welcomed by fresh fruit and water and in the cupboards we found essentials as olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.
The beds are very comfortable and together with the calm surrounding we slept very well.
The kitchen contains almost everything you wish for (besides a scissors).
The large terrace is very nice furnished and accommodates 6 to 8 hungry holidaymakers.
Mellieha was for us the better choice, as we found Valletta and the surrounding cities as to loud and overcrowded and the traffic is really chaotic. In Mellieha you can enjoy pretty walks on the peninsulas and you find nice beaches and good restaurants. Just a few steps from the apartment you can find a very good supermarket.
You don't need a car, I can't recommend it because of the absurd traffic and narrow roads full of potholes. It's easy to go by bus whereever you want to. 7 days cost 21,-€. Don't miss to visit Gozo, it's absolutely worth a visit and the ferry terminal is just a stone's throw away from the apartment. Other highlights are Marsaxlokk and of course Mdina/Rabat and the Dingli Cliffs.
All in all we had a great time in Malta and there's no regret of the the choice we made.
