"Great hotel for the Mallehia area. Lovely roofdeck and front desk was super helpful and friendly. Buying breakfast option is a great idea and buying 2-3 of the buffet dinners (more affordable and more food options) than local restaurants. The indoor pool wasn’t heated until we asked about it. The ..."

"The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. You have to pay for the AC but it is reasonable. You can walk to a very good supermarket and restaurants in 5-10 minutes. The pool is a little small but it is kept clean and is nicely laid out. Overall I would recommend this villa."

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Mellieha itself wasn't my favorite location to stay at on Malta, but it was a convenient base point to explore the north end of the island, Gozo, and Comino.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveler

Tiny beaches that are packed with people. Trash all over the place, and absolutely no wildlife or fish to see because everything is so over crowded and over populated. Very disappointed.

4/5 - Good

I.G.

I think next time we would stay at or very near to golden sands beach; that area seems slightly less isolated. However, if staying for the convenience of location for getting to Gozo, I would consider just staying on Gozo for the time in that area.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Nice place. Wonderful parish church. Children's flash mob on Sunday in the square outside the church. Location of Mellieha is quite a distance by bus ftom most of the Malta sights.

5/5 - Excellent

We loved the resturant “Bouquet Garni”
