Should you like to spend a day at our sister island Gozo this would only take 45 minutes or a day in the in the 3-cities (Senglea, Cospicua and Vittoriosa) only 10 minutes away by ferry. Please note that there are some internal steps due to the home's traditional layout. We’re happy to recommend local spots, dining, and art events nearby. One can find an Italian cafeteria and small market one corner away. Long stays are welcome—ideal for remote workers thanks to high-speed fiber internet.

Hosting is personal to us, and we truly value the experience of welcoming guests from around the world. We’re always available for any questions or local tips, whether it’s finding the best hidden cafes, navigating the ferry schedule, or simply making your stay more comfortable. You’ll have complete privacy, but we’re just a message or call away whenever you need support. Our goal is to make you feel at home in a space that reflects the grace, warmth, and craftsmanship of Malta.
