Grand Harbour, Valletta, Malta - sleeps six

The perfect base for your self-catering holiday in Malta, our apartment is situated on Dahlet Gnien Is-Sultan ('the Site of the Sultan's Garden') just outside the city walls of old Valletta, a World Heritage City, and within easy reach of all facilities and transport links. On the quayside just below us is the new fast ferry terminal to Gozo (takes 45 mins, every 2 hours - foot passengers only) and ferries across to the Three Cities.

The apartment has a balcony and large roof terrace, sleeps up to 6 people and is newly refurbished throughout with modern, stylish furniture and new appliances. Click on the photos section to see the interior, views and surrounding area (but our full 180-degree view was too big to upload!)

The apartment sleeps up to a maximum of 6 people and has one double bedroom, one twin bedroom and two double sofa beds in the living room. Modern and stylish bath/shower room, and a second guest toilet.

The accommodation is spacious - 142 sq metres or 1,525 sq ft - light and airy throughout with traditional Maltese features such as the rustic wooden shutters on the windows and balcony doors. There is a separate TV lounge with 120-channel XLHD cable TV. There is free internet access with unlimited data usage. Ample bed linen and towels are provided but please bring your own beach towels.

Large kitchen/breakfast room with lots of character (1960s retro-style) and a dining table seating six, fully equipped including coffee maker, kettle, toaster, washing machine, ironing facilities. We can provide a Welcome food pack containing tea, coffee and sandwich-making provisions for your arrival, if you wish.

The apartment balcony is small but has a patio-size glazed ceramic and wrought iron table and two chairs - perfect for your morning cup of coffee. The roof terrace, however, is very big with an olive tree, oleander and bougainvillea plants, a large garden table and six chairs where you can take your meals al-fresco, and two sun-loungers with a parasol.

Airport pick-up service by our own drivers. Flexible check-in times. Very friendly and helpful caretaker, maid cleaning prior to arrival and on departure.

Perfect Holiday
We loved our stay at the Grand Harbour, accommodation was in a perfect spot, walking distance to busses, ferries & into to beautiful streets with all the shops, cafés & restaurants. The home had everything we needed & the housekeeper Sandra was fantastic, provided us with a few supplies for our arrival & organising our airport shuttle. We loved sitting on the little balcony watching the cruise ships pass by. Thank you Debra

Loved the apartment. It was very easy to get to Valletta with the lift. Sandra was very helpful with information. Speed boat to Gozo was very close and spot to get the hop on and hop off bus was close. We found using the public bus to get around was very time consuming but using Bolt (Uber) was simple and not to expensive so we did both. My only complaint would be that there was no water pressure so it was very hard to was hair. It was only 13 Euro to get to the airport with Bolt.

Great water views!
This gem of an apartment has great views of the harbor and near by church bell tower. The apartment has plenty of room with 2 different seating areas and 1 1/2 baths. Unless you want to walk up many flights of stairs, the way to get up into the the city center is to use then Barrakka Lift. The churches and Cathedral are very impressive. Be sure to get out of the city to see the Rabat, Mdina area.

Nice stay
Good location, especially if you are taking the fast ferry to Gozo. The water taxis also launch from just around the corner. Very large apartment with lots of space. The kitchen had everything we needed. The grocery is nearby and made it easy to eat several meals at home. Great communication with the person responsible for the apartment. Overall highly recommended!

Great stay overlooking the Grand Harbour
We stayed at this property in December. The vibrant centre of Valetta is a 5-10 min walk up the (steep) steps where there’s many food, drink and shopping options. And a further 5-10 min walk to the buses. If the steps are too much, then the elevator to the Upper Barakka Gardens is a 2 min walk. The wonderful views from the small balcony look across the Grand Harbour to the three cities. It was fascinating to watch the coming and goings of this busy harbour. The apartment was very spacious for our family of 4. The caretaker, Sandra, met us on arrival and got us settled in. For a small fee she also provided some basic food which actually turned out to be a good idea (for our hungry family). The Gozo ferry and 3 cities ferry are only a 5 min walk. I would highly recommend this property. - location to food - location to public transport - spacious - clean - well equipped - washing machine - views - good communication with owner and caretaker.

Clean and comfortable
Very helpful from getting drivers ,giving directions and getting welcome package. Very comfy beds and couches and a beautiful and well equipped kitchen. Close and easy access to historic centre by lift or by the stairs through Victoria Gate and to ferries to Gozo and Three Cities. Valletta is stunning with so much to see and do. We had a great stay.
