As we visited in winter, we did not have access to the outside pool or bar because they were understandably under maintenance but we did have access to the private beach as well as all the indoor facilities- all of which were excellent. Very accessible and the staff are wonderful and make you feel at ease. Always there to help. Provides many sea activities even in the off peak season and at a good price too. Has hiking trails which was an unusual surprise. Food and beverages are great. All in all the best there is.

The check-in staff was appalling, never had a bizarre experience like it before. Bed was nice but pillows useless. Very slippery bath when having a shower and no body cream for quests. Breakfast was very delicious with lots of options. And the view from the room was amazing, over to the sea and the beach and the sunset. A nice hotel and I would return just for the view.

The hotel was super busy, we even had to que and wait for a table to be free for bfast. Room cleanliness, very dusty and noisy, we could hear noises even in the night or early morning when people above our floor had a shower or used the toilet. Sorry but the hotel may look nice from the outside, but completely different when you stay there. And if that’s not enough, plenty of Maltese people who make it more like an open market rather than a hotel.
