Traditional Maltese Townhouse with Backyard Garden and Seafront Location

What a beautiful location with 5 star views. A great stay in a beautiful home of yesteryear packed full of beautiful memories and antiquities. Every possible home comfort and more , the garden boast a massive banana palm with bananas, lemon trees and peaches. The beach is directly opposite with its marina , the town is a short walk. The hosts were great especially Adam who was truly inspirational , helpful and so caring 10/10

That I had to leave!

Maison traditionnelle, avec balcon et petit jardin à l’arrière equipé d’un petit BBQ. Très bien situé. Clim, machine à laver le linge et une grande douche où l’on peut facilement se retourner tant elle est grande. Possibilité d se baigner à mois de 100 m. Parfaite pour 2 ou 3 personnes adultes ou alors 2 adultes et 2 enfants. Pour sûr que j’y retournerai. Je conseille.

Manque quelques ustensiles récents pour la cuisine. Un tapis au niveau de la porte de la douche pourrait être le bienvenu. Tout autant qu’une petite tablette au niveau du lavabo de la douche

Amazing place

Bed is ok but have seen better

We stayed from 31.12 for a week. This is a 100 year old, spacious house, right on the waterfront with amazing view and sound of waves from the sofa on the terrace. 2 people can also have a meal overlooking the harbour. In the back garden with orange and banana tree (delicious oranges BTW) there’s a perfectly good gas barbecue and more seating if you want privacy. Kitchen is well equipped, we ended up making our own food including amazing grilled fresh seafood from the market in Marsaxlokk. It’s 5 minutes walk to the salt pans and amazing walking areas along the sea. Some great sunrises from the apartment. First impressions were a bit mixed but 2 days in we totally warmed over to the place. It was spotlessly clean but it is old, well worn and has that shabby chic vibe which differentiates it from a generic rental apartment. Easy free parking max 100-200 metres down the road, good access to Valletta and the rest of the island. Restaurants on the harbour front were a bit too fast food focused - the best ones seem to be the 2 in the other direction - Kyle’s Kitchen and Tal Fajtata- short walk away. Marsaskala itself is not much to write home about but any Med harbour view from your outdoor sofa during morning coffee or afternoon cocktails is spectacular if you’ve come from snowed in central Europe. Wouldn’t recommend it for more than 2 people - the bathroom opens straight on the kitchen and there isn’t really a seperate shower - you’re showering over a structural concrete bathroom floor and no extractor fan so to dry properly you need to get out, and into the kitchen :-). The hot water tank is good for 1 long or 2 vwry short showers and then needs like 15 minutes to heat up again. AC and heating is one modern unit in the kitchen- if you can’t switch it on the master switch is above the washing machine in the toilet. Took us 2 days to figure it out. Double bed was super comfortable and sturdy, we slept really well. Wi FI worked great, there’s a large tv and a Chromecast.

Let’s get a bathroom rug in the kitchen outside the bathroom.
