Wendy's townhouse is a magical place where my family were so lucky to spend a wonderful week there. We had a rented car, the location is great base to explore the whole Malta island from. Kalkara is really a cute part of Malta. It is not the capital, but in my view it is the best as we were able to observe the local people's lifestyle. They are very friendly and the sense of community is strong. On Thursday evening we saw the bingo night from the terrace, that was really fun to watch. Next door bakery is brilliant. A little van stopped by the front door selling fruits and vegetables also lovely. Rinella Bay is a good spot to swim and you literally don't see any tourists!
Our favourite spot, however, was St Peter's Pool beach. As it is only 20 minutes away, we managed to be there for sunrise and had the whole beach just for ourselves from 6-8am. That was unforgettable - beautiful memories. There were days we finished our morning swim and came back to the house to have breakfast at the beloved terrace and other times we had pastizzi and coffee in Makkaloxx fishing village (maximum 10 minutes from St Peter's Pool).
The Drift Wood bedrooms have air conditioning so it is really a godsend in the afternoon. Master Bedroom is grand with a bathtub creating a romantic ambience.
Wendy was responsive, very kind and so hospitable.. I can't thank her enough to provide such a nice accommodation for us! I just hope that we could go back again for another holiday.
