The Island of Malta region


Within seconds of waking, you can step from the apartment and into a blissful, safe sea, in the midst of magnificence and majesty, for you are in the heart of the earliest settlement of Malta, which became the first Maltese city of the Knights of St. John, and later the British Naval Headquarters for the Mediterranean for 150 years.
The Hypogeum, a world heritage site, is accessible by direct bus from the village of Vittoriosa as are the Tarxien Temples close by to the Hypogeum. DO BOOK your ticket(s) for THE HYPOGEUM on the internet before you leave home as tours do get booked well in advance. Go to: www.heritagemalta.org/hypogeum.html
The area is particularly popular with local fishermen. For those who love to fish, your meditative companions are more than likely to be Maltese. An inviting outcrop of rock immediately below the apartment is ideal for you to fish from. In addition the marina is popular with locals too.
The Vittoriosa area
Vittoriosa is one of the towns designated 'city' by the Knights of St. John. The atmosphere is steeped in history and intrigue. A profound sense of silence and peacefulness embraces you as you saunter through the streets of ancient houses and dwelling places. The church of St. Lawrenz dominates. Vittoriosa has been a popular film location and some of the buildings have featured time and again in films that you may well have seen. The Count of Monte Christo, Gladiator, and Troy were in part filmed within the Three Cities.
An international marina now plays host to an increasing number of super yachts from all over the world that come to berth for days at a time. Cruise liners gracefully glide into the Grand Harbour of Valletta, and these you can watch from the balcony of the apartment. Life on the sea is constantly rolling by. Always a quiet dignity prevails, and you can truly 'just be'.
The Maritime Museum is along the waterfront, and several small museums within the city walls. The Inquisitor's Palace is close by. From Vittoriosa square you have access to a swathe of exceptional restaurants with inspiring marina views: 'Sottovento', 'Manchurian', 'Tate' and 'Two and a Half Lemon' to entice you. There's also 'Twist', an ice cream bar here too. 'Cantina', and 'Del Borgo' are wine bars with food options ... all within easy walking distance of the apartment.

Guestbook for Amazing view beside the sea
Dear Deborah,
We are safely back and I wanted to write and tell you how much we enjoyed your apartment. the balcony obviously is the star of the show and we spent many enjoyable times sitting out there watching the action on the harbour and the coming and going of the boats, especially the giant cruise liners. We all had an equally enjoyable time visiting the harbour side of the peninsular where there were all those lovely restaurants and picking which luxury yacht was ours. I chose the one with it s own helicopter.
We loved the town and confused every shop keeper with our strange shopping habits.(one of these and two of those) but they were all very patient and it is a great feeling being in a foreign country but being able to speak English and drive on the left. The caretaker of the underground car park gave us a parking space and Diane was very charming and helpful. We gave her all the keys including the remote for the car park gate. The rest of the family managed three swims in November.
Thank you again,
Yours sincerely, Jenny Schotte and family
We arrived at Vittoriosa on 24th August 2010 to the 31st and we couldn't believe our good fortune on having found such a wonderful location. Disillusioned with the claims of numerous holiday brochures we decided to be brave and base our decision purely on the reviews found on Trip Advisor. Risky perhaps as this wasn't to be just a holiday but also the location for our holiday. We received a warm welcome followed by a tour of the beautiful apartment and the first glimpse of the breath-taking view - amazing! The whole complex is scrupulously clean and maintained to the very highest standards. The apartment is tastefully furnished, with views over the bay of Fort St. Angelo more than AMAZING ..... Thankyou so, so much - we can't wait to see you again. Roberto Ermino, Italy.
Wow! We were blown away by the location: the stunning view... not overlooking anyone or feeling overlooked, ...being one minute walk from proper Maltese living... and only fifteen minutes from the capital via water taxi. The apartment is ideal for young families - no steps, easy to make toddler safe and an outside that is like another room! It was everything that your web page advertised and more. (Beccy and Family, UK. )
It almost goes without saying that we have enjoyed our week in Malta enormously. The apartment is excellent and easy to relax in. Vittoriosa is great for wandering around in and the perfect place from which to visit the sites - a short boat ride from Valletta and a cheap ricketty bus to wherever you want to go to. (Sandra and Colin UK.)
Luckily for us that we so fell in love last time that we had to return again. This time we didn't have a holiday... we came home to live in Malta for a week. Thank you so much for the wonderment of it all. (Mary and the boys UK.)
We enjoyed Malta very much, and the apartment was brilliant... perfect for young families. (Michelle and Adrian, Berkshire UK.)
We all had a great time. The apartment was of a very good standard and your welcome was appreciated. (Sue, Richard, and David, Northampton UK.)
A great time was had by all. The apartment is so relaxing and quiet, but has everything you could want. The location is superb, so near to everything but removed from that 'tourist' feel that made such a great relaxing holiday. Many thanks Deborah from us all. David, Gail, Georrgie, Peter and Katrice.
Superb place and setting. We've had a great time. Thanks. We loved the view and setting. Absolutely lovely.
Nicole and Tom, Max and Martin, Holland.
I'm Clare, Scott's partner. I know he sent an e-mail to say thanks but I wanted to send you one too on behalf of my mum, sister and I. We just wanted you to know we all had a brilliant time and were very sorry to leave your lovely apartment and Malta. I know we all miss having that first cup of coffee out on your terrace, our gardens just don't quite compare to the view we had at yours! Thank you for all the help and advice you left for us it was all very useful - especially in finding the bakery! Please rest assured we will visit again, sooner rather than later if its left up to me. In the mean time we will be recommending your apartment and Malta to all our friends.
Once again many thanks and we all hope to see you again soon. Clare
I would like to say that we had a lovely time, and the apartment is so relaxing, both in location and size etc, so Thank you. Jan Lampard, UK
