The Island of Malta region


Summer temperature is constant between 32 and 34 degrees during the day and 25 degrees at night. In winter the temperature is between 14 and 17 degrees during the day and 11 degrees at night. We do not get snow or frost.
Malta is considered to be very safe and welcomes all nationalities. Taxis are abundant whilst car, motorbike and bicycle hire are widely used. Driving is on the left, like England. English is Malta's second language (Malta has its own language, Maltese) and is widely spoken, followed by Italian.
The Sliema area
Sliema is approx. 5km from the 500year old cultural and semi-silent capital city, Valletta and approx. 12km from the previous old medieval city, Mdina. It is undoubtedly Malta's fashionable seaside, bustling town with sea promenades, shopping facilities, restaurants, hotels and beaches.
Most of the annual 60,000 international students attend their English schools and reside in Sliema. Swimming and most aquatic sports are along the seafront whilst the red coloured sandy beaches are found on the north of Malta, approx. 16km away and are reachable by bus or other transport. Bus and ferry transport are frequent, efficient and reasonably priced.

This studio apartment is not the Ritz just as Malta is not Necker and Sliema is not Cannes. But it is an exceptionally well equipped roof top apartment with a large south facing terrace, close to bus... more |

This is a studio apartment that has been built on the roof of a residential apartment building. It is well built with a lovely outdoor area with BBQ that has views towards Balluta bay. It is a studio apartment so basically all in one room with a raised sleeping area and bathroom with great shower. Kitchen area is complete with all bits and pieces to self cater if required. There is an efficient reverse cycle air conditioner which will be needed when it is warm especially as it isn't particularly insulated being on the rooftop. The owner Franck lives in the apartment below and is extremely helpful and welcoming, there is plenty of towels both bathroom and beach and a hairdryer also. It is located in the residential suburb of Gzira which is between Balluta Bay and Sliema/Manoel Island side. There is a bus route to Valletta and Sliema not far from the apartment, but the new bus system is still very much in transition and even the locals don't seem to be able to work it out, hopefully that will improve soon as the old buses were great for getting about. Our only complaint was about the transport options really, we were diving daily from St Georges Bay and it was almost impossible to find transport to and from our apartment other than our as always helpful dive centre (Cresta) and taxis for the evening. Fortunately we discovered that if you don't use the cabs on the street but phone for either Wembley cars or eCabs they are much cheaper than the taxi stands. Usually only 5-6 euros to and from St Julians for example for the restaurants. You can walk there in about 20 mins but be warned there is a 'big' hill on the return journey... Not great in heels! Overall a lovely quiet apartment but if you want to be in the middle of it, with the new bus system, you are a little isolated. |

We come to Malta about 4 times per year, and this was undoubtedly the best apartment we've stayed at. Frank (the very helpful owner) had thought of absolutely everything you could ever want or need in the apartment. It is a fantastic little place and we found it just perfect for our needs. |
