The view from the terrace is amazing and whatever time of day there is always something interesting to see. Marsaxlook is a lovely old fishing village - no high rises - and the quay is lined with restaurants just a minutes walk away. We stayed in Festa week so it was busy in the evenings with lots of live music. There is ample free parking but if you do not rent a car there buses to Valletta and the airport. We had a great time and look forward to returning.
