Francesca’s place is beautiful, and she was an incredible host. Incredibly communicative and helpful introducing us to Malta. She called a dive shop ahead of our arrival to make sure they rented the gear we needed (we had a great experience at DiveMed) and gave us much advice about rock climbing areas, hikes, restaurants, etc. We can’t speak highly enough about her helpfulness.
The town is a bit off the beaten path, but we had a personal car and this was not a problem. It is close to a snorkeling and swimming site (Ghar Lapsi) and important Neolithic temples. We were not too worried about the rural nature of the town, but we learned after being there that driving is a bit stressful. Everything in Malta is pretty close though, so not too much of a problem.
Overall an awesome stay! Thank you Francesca!
