If you are looking for exceptional accommodation, in a historic yacht, in a safe harbor and a great super host, then Glyn and his M&M are the right place for you!
I can highly recommend this extraordinary experience for extraordinary people.
Be aware M&M is an elderly lady.
Older ladies also often have their own whims and need care.
I'd say she's an RV on the water.
You are adventurous and don't shy away from a storm, with a shaking boat with unknown noises?
You're not too good to do a few things yourself?
Then you've come to the right place at Gyn's M&M!
I got to spend a week all by myself on Glyn's M&M and it was like being at a campsite, only on water.
Only there were no disturbing neighbors, everything was very quiet.
There is a warm water shower facility in the harbour.
The Paparazzi Restaurant is also right there:
Destination for the taxi drop off/pick up service.
I can recommend them: http://www.jcabsmalta.com
If you are there in winter like me, Glyn will provide a small heater for you.
If you also cook yourself, it will quickly get warm.
I only killed 2 mosquitoes since I was there in February...
In the morning you may have a little condensation from the night, but you can compensate for that with airing.
Anyway airing is important because it has high humidity.
Manoel Island (Navy), where you are stationed, is an island/oasis in the middle of Gzira town.
Dog owners go there with their dogs.

I used Nextbike.com right next to the entrance bridge.
I didn't have any big claims, inflated tires or rusty gears?
It has 2 wheels and it moves, that's it!
You can take it along the coast to Sliema or a bit towards Valetta, but it's not comfortable in the city itself.
There are no extra bike paths and it can happen that you only have to push your bike on the narrow, bumpy streets.
They also drive on the left, which takes a little getting used to.
You can pay with euros, not too big notes if possible.
Alone as a woman it was very pleasant, no slimy hit-ups or pushy machos.
You also always get a receipt for everything and don't have to negotiate.
You can use the bus for 1.50 euros for 2 hours.
Bus Route 13 will take you directly to Valetta.
The Azzopardi Gzira Fish Shop is around the corner, as is the butcher.
Go get something and cook it for yourself...hmmmmm!!!
If you don't like to cook, there are many other options.
I can recommend the Sushi Take Away: Yami Gabi.
Glyn's M&M is for those looking for something other than a boring hotel
(All Inclusive/Half Board).
So an absolute insider tip...pst....check it out!!!
Get on board and embark on an unforgettable adventure on the M&M!
Actually, I don't want to write that at all, because then it is booked up so quickly..
I will definitely go there again, See you and thank you for everything Glyn!
