About this property

Modern and open-plan fun apartment with jacuzzi spa and seaviews of harbour

New apartment and called Gold because of the adopted colour scheme, this apartment offers a myriad of other experiences to please both the romantic and the young at heart. Gold provides excellent views of the seafront where all the major ferry boats moor (harbour/round Malta cruises, and Gozo/Comino/Valletta visits). The open top tourist and route buses' terminus is across the road, as is the seaplane departure point, making sightseeing a trouble-free delight. Restaurants and cafes abound in this locality, creating a pleasurable hub of activity. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment (main with en-suite), boasts a large kitchen/dining room which combines with the lounge area (the 2 sofa beds can sleep a further 2 if required), including gas fireplace, 42' TV. Adjacent is a 6’ x 3’ pool table table plus a bar for one’s own entertainment. Uniquely created is the ‘retreat area’ where a large Jacuzzi is enticingly situated in a romantically candle-lit alcove.

This apartment was a perfect home base for our time in Malta! Awesome location! Across the street from the ferries and buses etc. Lots of shops and restaurants and exciting location. Paul the owner was absolutely amazing right from start to the finish of our vacation. He and his staff answered any of our questions and were always helpful! It was great to arrive after travelling to discover some great basic supplies which was a pleasant surprise. The apartment was comfortable and clean. We enjoyed in the evenings the air hockey and pool table and great restaurants, etc. The apt was equipped with everything we needed! We highly recommend this apartment!

Brilliant location in Sliema

Spacious property in an excellent location. It really is only a couple of minutes walk from shops, restaurants and the (10 minute) ferry across the harbour to Valetta. Apartment is on the second floor but there is a lift if required.

A fantastic break in Malta

We chose the apartment because it was central to the restaurants, shops and ferry to Valletta. It was absolutely perfect. We were within 5 minutes of many, many excellent restaurants and my wife was delighted there was a Marks and Spencer’s on our doorstep. The apartment itself was also excellent. The rooms were spacious and balcony overlooking the harbour was a wonderful place to sit and have an early evening drink before heading out. A big thank you to Paul who helped us make our stay in Malta a most enjoyable experience.

Perfect base for exploring intriguing Malta and Gozo

This 2-bed condo in Sliema was home for a week in August 2023, providing perfect lodging steps from the waterfront with its many dining and touring offerings. You can view that waterfront from the balcony, fine for relaxing before heading out to see this intriguing country. The owner provided excellent support in enjoying the condo and airport shuttles, making our arrival easy. There were no problems with the condo, though there were a couple internet outages, which were city-wide and quickly resolved. We used the hot tub, which is perfect after a day of touring. There’s a laundry in the in the condo. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need for preparing and enjoying meals. Supplies can be purchased at the Spar just a couple hundred meters away; more are found in The Point shopping center, also a short walk away. While we took breakfast in the flat, we otherwise found excellent restaurants around the country. One special restaurant is the Fontanella Tea Garden in the old walled city of Mdina. Transportation from the flat was very available by boat, as well as by Uber, cab, and bus. We were easily able to get to the ancient temples all over Malta and Gozo. Most can be accessed on demand, but you MUST purchase your tickets to the Hypogeum in advance. We took an organized tour for the Ġgantija Temple, with its more complex logistics. We give the highest rating for this condo, which made our visit to Malta a great success –we hope to enjoy again soon. Thanks!!

False impression

Paul was good at replying to our communications. We didn’t get any check-in details though, luckily the taxi firm he uses knew his ‘phone number and could get the keys for the apartment. We still had to contact Paul for details of how to leave the apartment at the end of our stay. The apartment, where do I start - we knew from the photos that it was quirky, but the reality was something else. We were 2 couples so we booked because it had 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 sofas. But hey, no! One sofa had completely disappeared! The snooker table had become a pool table which has seen better days. The dining chairs had been recovered twice and had been patched up with tape. The television was held up by a speaker on one side and a small table on its side plus a book. There were no instructions for it and we couldn’t make it work. The round cushion on the floor surrounded by net curtains was in front of the air conditioning unit. There are several drawers in the bedrooms that couldn’t be used because there were no knobs on them. Some wiring and sockets were probably dangerous because they were hanging off the walls. The kitchen was fine and there were plenty of utensils and crockery. The beds were comfortable although some of the pillows could do with being replaced. The location was the best thing about the apartment, close to the water, the ferries, the buses and restaurants & shops.

It is always with regret to read that our guests did not fully appreciate our property or service. Luckily it happens once in a blue moon and so most reviews are always very good but still take all reviews seriously to see how we can better improve ourselves. I had arranged for transport for these guests for both their arrival and departure; the driver and his garage are part of our set up and so he assists with arrivals and also directs guests to the correct address, with Gold being on a pedestrianized road, he cannot stop by the door; and so it is normal practice for him to assist, even when or if something goes amiss. Of course he knows my number, and to which I answered him promptly so there was no waiting for the guests to check in. The guests were collected at the airport on their arrival, as promised, and again back to the airport for their departure pick up at 06:15 Gold is a very popular property and so upgrade and refurbishment works are carried out in lull periods. However I feel the guest is certainly exaggerating with her description of the apartment, however admittedly some furniture is sometimes replaced with others when we see the necessity and regret if anything was not proper, but a quick phonecall or message would have certainly triggered our attention. It is unfair to state that you were not advised about the check out details. I suggest the guests again refer to my email to them of 01/10 where I wrote 'You will use the same keybox code to access the box and to deposit the key back inside please'. Once again I thank the guests for having stayed with us but regret that they did not fully enjoy the apartment, but glad to read appreciate its prime location.

Appartamento grande, comodo, pulito e cucina fornita. La posizione é in assoluto la cosa migliore, comoda sia per i trasporti, che negozi e locali.Il proprietario sempre disponibile e veloce nella risposta.L'unica cosa che potrei dire non piacevole é il rumore della cappa del ristorante che si sente nel bagno piccolo, che non dipende certo dal proprietario e che non ci ha dato fastidio a dormire chiudendo tutte le porte, solo fastidioso mentre si usa il bagno.Nel complesso l'esperienza é stata molto buona e consiglio vivamente questo appartamento per un soggiorno a Malta

… Where do we start? Hosts: amazingly responsive to any requests, big or small. Arranged for airport transfers, weekly housekeeping and more for very reasonable rates. We liked them so well, we hope to see them again! Amenities: Spacious apartment with water views from the terrace, well appointed and stocked with everything you need- there is a lift (elevator) to this second apartment with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a hot tub, and both a clothes washer and dryer-(the latter being a rare find in Malta!) Location: right in the heart of Sliema, with great shopping and (literally) dozens of restaurants within a very short walking distance.Taxi stand is on the corner and the ferry across the street- grocery store a block away. We never had the need to rent a car; taxi and ferry rates so reasonable! Vibe: So much to do and see in Malta! English is one of two official languages; there was literally no language barrier for this (sadly) monolingual couple. The food is amazing, and inexpensive- as are the wonderful Maltese wines. People are friendly and welcoming . Can’t urge you enough to take this wonderful option- so affordable, you might! extend your stay! My only regret: that we are presently sitting at the airport returning home from an amazing experience!
Short walk from the prpery
One of many beautiful churches in Malta
Salmon Wellington (!) from restaurant Porto Paolo, a 5 minute seaside stroll from the property- our favorite, along wit Atna Bistro (even closer!)

Bellissimo soggiorno

La struttura rispettava a pieno la descrizione riportata nell’annuncio, a parte per 1-2 cose. La posizione della casa è ottima data la vicinanza al mare e per la vita notturna. La casa era quasi perfetta, purtroppo abbiamo trovato delle lampadine fulminate, che sono state sostituite tempestivamente il giorno stesso della segnalazione, e il tavolo da biliardo presentava dei tagli su tappetino, ma per il resto la casa era perfetta. Consiglio vivamente a tutti di soggiornare in questo appartamento, non solo per la bellezza ma soprattutto per le gentilezza e la disponibilità del proprietario di casa

Thank you Daniel for a lovely review and for having chosen to stay with us. We thrive to give a better service to our guests and so thank you for bringing matters to our attention so that we can deal with these immediately. Admittedly, the pool table has taken the brunt of a few non sober nights by some of our guests but because we have had back-to-back bookings all throughout, we were not able to have this repaired as the table would need to be dismantled and would take a few hours to repair, and so this work is being planned to be carried out soon when we start to have short breaks in between departures and arrivals. We nevertheless hope this did not stop you from enjoying a game. Once again thank you.

Great location, relaxing apartment.

The location of the apartment is perfect, plenty of shops and restaurants around - easy access to the ferry to Valletta and tour buses too. A nice view from the side of the balcony. The apartment is quite rustique but very comfortable, and the pool table is great for some post-touring relaxation. Would definitely stay again but hopefully arrive earlier, the owners kindly met us in the early hours because of a delayed flight!

This is the place to stay! It’s as advertised. The owner is a great, not only is he quick to respond, he also help with a solution we had with our reservation. The check-in is the most complete and thorough I’ve experienced. It’s starts with his son Nathaniel, he walked us through their check in process, presented a book with information about the apartment plus restaurants and places to see. The location is less than 5 minutes to the busses and ferries, and some great international/ethnic restaurants are at your doorstep on the promenade. I will definitely be staying here again on my next trip to Malta!

Bella casa e ottima posizione

Siamo stati ospiti in questo appartamento per una settimana e ci siamo trovati benissimo. Splendida la Jacuzzi così come il biliardo, tutto trovate in buone condizioni tranne per alcuni danni che altri ospiti hanno arrecato. La casa ha davvero tutto fra cucina, utensili, lavatrice e asciugatrice, anche se non tutte in ottime condizioni. Proprietari molto disponibili.

Really pleased I chose this apartment - we all enjoyed staying in Gold!

Three of us (three adults) stayed in Gold in June 2019. We found the apartment to be spacious, comfortable and the pool table was a great source of amusement for the boys and me. As advertised, the property is perfectly situated very close to bus stops, ferries, restaurants, shops etc. The balcony is of a reasonable size and gives good views of the water and the local hustle and bustle; the view from the roof is even better because it opens up the view even more. I found Paul and Josanne to be very easy to talk to/deal with and if I return to Malta and choose to stay in Sliema again, I will go for Gold.
