The building was absolutely spotless from the street door to the flat interior and it was fully equipped: fridge, ceramic hob, microwave, kettle, tea/coffee and breakfast items, toaster, iron and board, hairdryer… the air con/heater worked perfectly, the shower was strong and there was a smart tv with Netflix, etc. The host was absolutely lovely and very accommodating, communication was clear and quick. He also gave me a few tips for the area including local restaurants. It’s a 18 minutes walk to the airport or a 4 minutes (5€) uber/bolt. I highly recommend the place!

Olga Suites in Luqa is an absolute gem. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by how sleek, stylish, and sexy the space felt. The design is modern and minimal, yet still warm and inviting — it gives boutique hotel vibes with the comfort of a private apartment. Every corner is immaculate, and the finishes are high-end, making it the perfect space to relax, recharge, or even enjoy a romantic stay. The suite itself is spacious, beautifully lit, and thoughtfully laid out. The bed is incredibly comfortable, the bathroom is spotless and modern, and the entire apartment feels brand new. Every little detail has been taken care of, from the lighting to the layout — it’s clear the hosts take pride in offering a high-quality experience. The location is another major highlight. Luqa is hands-down one of the best spots to stay in Malta. It’s super central, meaning you’re never far from anywhere on the island — and best of all, you’re just 2 minutes from the airport, which makes travel seamless and stress-free. Despite its convenience, the area is peaceful, giving you a break from the crowds while still being incredibly accessible. The hosts were also fantastic — responsive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. Check-in was smooth, communication was great throughout, and they made sure I had everything I needed. Whether you're visiting for a quick getaway, a romantic weekend, or a longer stay, Olga Suites is the perfect base in Malta. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending it to everyone I know!

Luqa is a quaint, tranquil village very near the airport. There are regular bus services to Valetta, so it is easy to get around. I enjoyed the low volume of traffic and there were enough stores and street vendors to buy everything I needed.

Gudja is a quiet village even though it is close to the airport. There are some historic buildings in the area but no big shops or restaurants. It is not on the 'tourist trail' so there is not really any amenities for tourists in Gudja.

Central location with good bus service to airport and other areas. The area itself is quite residential but an easy bus ride away from Valletta, Birgu and other areas where attractions are. Quieter at night time but still has food options to buy yourself or to eat out. The church is astonishing.

Tarxien is a town with hardly any dining, food shopping facilities, but with good direct bus connections to Valletta and Marsaxlokk. It is not touristic and therefore very quiet, but still has buildings in typical old Maltese style here and there, Highlight is the Tarxien neolithic temple, not much visited it would appear, but excellent. (I had the site virtually for myself). A lot of the original finds are now in the Archaeological Museum in Valletta, with the site providing copies and the context. The hypogeum is also not far away.

Qormi seems like a traditional Maltese city/neighborhood, with mostly traditional houses, with narrow streets that have tight or no sidewalks. It is quiet and nice to have walks. You will find many small old churches.

Zurrieq is a quiet, traditional village.

Zurrieq is a quiet, traditional village. It has all the basics, e.g. supermarket, green grocers, butchers, pharmacy, 24/7 corner store and even an electrical appliances store which came in handy when I forgot my phone charger. It has a few take aways for pizza, burgers, etc, Kaian is excellent, and one restaurant which we did not try because there was a problem with the kitchen when we were there. It's a great base for exploring Malta as long as you enjoy peace and quiet. Hardly any tourists know it exists, but on the other hand you won't find bars, shops and excitement here. Parking is on street and you can find a space if you drive around 2-3 roads. Be careful as some of the streets are very very narrow and Google maps/Waze may send you that way - sticking to the main roads is faster and safer. I suspect the exception is the week of the village fiesta, which we didn't experience, but from talking to the locals, is a huge event.
