Property info

St. Agatha's Bastion more well known as The Blue Mdina Door is unique; stunning on the inside and out with the only private pool on the bastions in Mdina. Parts of the house date back to the 10th century. The vast patio with a pool and views of much of Malta and the Mediterranean Sea will make you want to stay at home while all of Malta including its coastline is close at hand.

Neighborhood info

Mdina is the former capital of Malta and is known on the Island as the Silent City (only locals can bring their cars into the City). It gets amazingly quiet at night while in the day tourists flock to the city to admire its many historic attractions, architecture and restaurants. In the morning you will be woken by sparrows nestling amongst bougainvillea branches growing on the facade of the house. Only 5kms away from Mdina you may stroll on the Dingli Cliffs which is also heavenly peaceful, bracing and scenic.
