Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Look no further, this is the one!
The apartment is situated in a beautiful village right on the water front, we were amazed at how close everything is, walking distance to restaurants, cafes, the market, the Marina and just a 5 minute ferry away into Valletta. We were able to swim and sunbath just in front of the apartment, what a treat!!!! The apartment is spotlessly clean, very spacious and with everything we could possible want for our holiday. We came in during the heat wave and was great to have really efficient air condition in every room, also the parking provided free of charge under the building was such a bonus, our rental car was kept cool and we didn’t have to walk long distances in the heat to get to the apartment. Would like to thank Claire for being so helpful during our stay and to Irene for answering all our questions and queries so promptly. Wonderful stay, highly recommended!!!!!

Our third stay in this beautiful apartment!
We started coming to Malta in 2015 and stayed in this great location and have been coming ever since, staying in the same great apartment. We like the professional and ease of booking, how we are always looked after on arrival. The small details like the welcome basket full of goodies, coffee machine and free coffee pods, tea, sugar all ready and even leaving a card and a box of chocolates for us on our anniversary. We like that we can walk everywhere and feel like locals, people are so warm and friendly. The view looking out of the balcony is spectacular, there is always something going on in the waterfront and we can just seat in the evening with our drinks and nibbles and be part of it. The apartment is very well maintained, very clean, large and spacious, great kitchen and kitchen equipment, excellent fast WIFI. Having a lift is a treat as not many apartments have lifts in Malta. All in all another magical stay and of course we will be back next year.

Superb location in the middle of history
We couldn't ask for more whilst holidaying in Malta this year. Every year we return to visit family from abroad and we have stayed in other apartments before. Nothing beats this one. From being just an inch away from the beautiful sea, to having the luxury of such a beautifully furnished apartment, it made our holiday one to remember. We were met by Claire, shown around and given tips. Beds are extremely comfortable, rooms are large, and sitting area/kitchen has all commodities you need. Crockery and utensils and coffee and tea making facilities were top notch. We haven't had any problems travelling around; the water transport was bang on time every time we used it and being so close to the apartment we used it plenty of time. Airconditioning system was an added bonus in this heat. Towels and linen were top quality as if we stayed in a hotel with the benefit of having a self catering accommodation to not just a room but a large spacious area. Made it very difficult for me to leave. Even our family were amazed at its comfortability. We will definitely visit again next year and looking forward to my glass of prosecco looking out towards the Grand Harbour.

Lovely views but out of the way
When we booked we looked at the photos on the site and unfortunately it was a little different when we arrived. This flat is on the 1st. floor and the lift broke down several times and on one occasion we waited 30 minutes in stifling heat before we had access to the the flat. The airconditioner in the dining room kept turning off making the room unbearable. The 3rd. bedroom is used as storage for brooms , dust mops etc and were an eyesore. Unfortunately the shower needs replacing in the 2nd. bathroom and there is mold around the shower base in the main ensuite . I feel that whilst this apartment is in a beautiful area it is out of the way as you need to get transport to Valletta to go anywhere. To ad salt to the wound we had to wait 18 days before the bond was repaid into my account. Clare the manager was most helpful and I would recommend her as a contact point.I am sure that there are better apartments for the money paid for this one.

Great apartment and great location
The apartment is situated in a great location close to restaurants and swimming facilities. The apartment is spacious and easily accommodated 5 people. Communication with the owner/manager was great with checkin flexability geven due to our late arrival in Malta.

WOW - Impressive
We stayed here for 8 days. What a jewel. From first contact the owner & manager where nothing but a delight to deal with. The accommodations were superb & exactly as shown on their website. The apartment was extremely clean with excellent exposure to all areas of the island. The building was quiet and the neighborhood very safe. Water taxis to Valletta were a blast. Over-all our stay was delightful and we will certainly return next year.

Fabulous Stay
We have returned to this great apartment for the second time this year and it is even better than what we remembered. The professional and easy booking process, the warm welcome, the attention to detail in the way the apartment is organized with everything that we could possibly need, such a well-fitted kitchen, the espresso machine and free pods, the welcome basket, information about Vittoriosa and Malta, just lovely. We set in the afternoon with a glass of wine in the balcony looking at the ships going through the waterfront and listening to the church bells in the distance, magic. Vittoriosa is a wonderful medieval city, with little winding streets to discover and great restaurants in every corner, and the Vittoriosa Marina with cafes and wine bars overlooking the super yachts. All within walking distance from the apartment. Don’t miss the Tuesday market and the wonderful water ferry to Valletta. What a great stay!! we'll be back!!!!

Lovely spacious apartment overlooking Grand Harbour
This is a superb apartment in an amazing location in St Angelo Mansions adjacent to the Vittoriosa Marina with its restaurants within a short walking distance. Valetta can easily be reached by ferry, bus or car. We were fortunate enough to be there during the Feast of Santa Marija (from Saturday 8th August) which consisted of the most wonderful firework display and petards fired from pontoons located in the harbour just outside the apartment. The balcony afforded an uninterrupted private view! Cruise ships to and from Valetta pass nearby and there is always something interesting to watch. I would thoroughly recommend this holiday for couples or adult families. Thank you Irene for returning our deposit bond so promptly. Jan & family.

Très bel appartement
Nous avons séjourné là une semaine en juillet 2015 avec des amis. L'appartement est très bien organisé, un très grand salon, 2 belles chambres doubles dont une avec salle de bain attenante et une chambre avec lits jumeaux un peut plus petite. La climatisation est installée partout et c'est très agréable à Malte où les températures peuvent atteindre 35 degrés. Un parking souterrain est très pratique aussi car il est difficile de se garer à Malte. Vittoriosa est une très belle petite ville. Le port ressemble à St Tropez avec ses gros bateaux de plaisance. On peut aller pour 2 euros par personne à La Valette la capitale de Malte du port. Cela prend 10 minutes à peine. On peut se baigner dans la baie même si parfois l'eau n'est pas absolument propre selon les courants mais comme un peu partout. Pour aller à la plage nous sommes allés vers le sud est de l'ile vers St Thomas Bay. Peu de sable mais une plage très belle avec un beau plongeoir pour les ados. Pour réserver il faut prévoir de tout payer 2 mois avant le départ y compris la caution, c'est un peu contraignant mais l'organisation ensuite est impeccable.

Home from home comfort with a fabulous view
This apartment is well appointed in a beautiful situation. Three good size bedrooms air con..and plenty of space. We are a family of five adults. Everything we needed was available. The apartment is furnished with quality , comfortable furniture and good beds. We can walk to half a dozen or so restaurants in the evenings and some of us swam in the water below our balcony. It is a lovely feeling to know when you have have a long day out that there will be your own parking space, a lift and a spacious comfortable smart air conditioned apartment to return to. Time to shower, and gave a cold G&T before dinner..bliss. Warm welcome on arrival and a small problem resolved at once with a very pleasant phone call. We will stay here again.
