Why they chose this property
This area is the perfect balance of peaceful relaxation and culture. The neighbourhood has charming features highlighting the Maltese balconies and character, which makes it such a special place to spend time.
What I enjoy most about the area is morning walks around the bastions, and the close vicinity of the city. There’s always something to do, since it is so central whether you want to the city or to the beach.
It’s a spot that feels both welcoming and memorable, and we love being able to share it with guests.
