Matt's place is superb. The view of the Mediterranean from the balcony is spectacular. We truly enjoyed having our breakfast in the morning and a glass of wine at night, watching the sea and listening to the sounds of Malta.
There is a small convenient store and a hairdresser and quite a few restaurants right bellow the appartment. This came handy when we arrived after 10 PM and had to buy water as you can't drink the tap water in Malta.
Matt orgsnised a taxi for us from the airport and his brother, Malcolm met us at the appartment on arrival to ensure easy check in.
Matt's family hardware store is also directly below which made it super easy to communicate with Matt and Malcolm. Malcolm even offered to fix my handbag which broke right before we boarded our flight to Malta 😥.
There are tons more restaurants and a few pharmacies close by, a major super market is a few blocks away. The beach and the promenade are within walking distance, plenty of cafes and tour attraction shops as well.
Across from the appartment is also a major public transport bus depot with buses going to every part of Malta, including the TD3 line which goes directly to the airport (€3 per person, it takes about an hour).
Even though the nightlife at St Paul's Bay is quite vibrant, the appartment is very quiet.
Matt and Malcolm were the perfect hosts. They even let us check out at 5 PM which was super kind and a lifesaver given we have a young child and our flight back home was not until 10:30 PM.
I would definitely recommend Matt's place to anyone who travels to St Paul's Bay and wishes to have a relaxing holiday at a place that is close to everything.
Thank you Matt and Malcolm.
