WOW - what an amazing view! Sitting on the balcony watching life go by we knew were on holiday! Mariella was a fabulous host and very quick to respond if we needed to contact her. The apartment is bright, airy and spacious. There is a minimart one minute's walk away and the Ponsonby bus stop is right outside -buses that stop there include the X2 airport bus. There are lots of bars and restaurants around. The Sliema-Valetta ferry is about 10 mins walk away along the promenade. We used public transport to explore the whole island using Tallinja Explore cards which we bought at the airport on arrival. We loved Malta and look forward to visiting again. Thank you Mariella!
