From the beginning of planning our stay in Marsaskala, Dario was incredibly helpful and prompt to respond to questions and any concerns that I voiced and maintained contact with us throughout our stay to make sure that everything was ok.

Upon arriving at the apartment, we were greeted by Dario, Alexia and her family who were all so friendly and made us feel at home. They clearly explained how everything worked in the apartment, how to get around the town and gave us tips on where to visit, what festivals were going on, where to eat good local food, etc. Our flight had been delayed and so we had arrived very late, but our hosts even arranged for us to eat a late dinner at a restaurant that was about to close.
The apartment is very clean, bright and spacious with three large bedrooms and two bathrooms. It was more than enough space for five people. There is a large open living room and fully equipped kitchen and a balcony with a gorgeous view of the sea. The surrounding area is quiet but is close to bus stops, restaurants and St. Thomas Bay, where we spent an afternoon at the beach. We did end up taking cabs from our location to get to areas such as St. Julians to go out in the evening, but we were very happy to have stayed in Marsaskala. In fact, I think this beautiful fishing town was one of my favourite parts of Malta. We all wished that we had been able to stay longer. Thanks to our host, the overall experience was very comfortable and pleasant. If I return to Malta, I would not hesitate to stay in the same apartment and I absolutely recommend it!!
