A spacious well equipped apartment which is ideally placed for a pleasant walk on the Marsaskala promenade, and within easy walking distance of a good range of restaurants (we used The Stuffed Olive, Nargile Lounge, and Tal Familja which were all excellent, and several others looked just as good).
The apartment does not have anywhere to lie out in the sun (though it is possible to get two chairs out on the small balcony and catch a bit of sun when it gets round there late in the afternoon). However if you are more interested in seeing the sights of Malta it is ideal, as there is a bus service to Valetta every 15 minutes.
Maria was an exceptionally hospitable host meeting us at the airport and even taking us out for a drive on the day before we left to see some of the sights we had not yet visited, and this made us feel like her personal guests not just customers.
