Malta Villas

Rich in history and boasting an abundance of sunshine across its characteristic rocky shores, Malta remains a popular destination, with more and more British visitors choosing to stay in one of the private villas located on the island, whether it be on the coast or in the charming rustic countryside. A unique alternative to the familiar hotels and self-catering studios and apartments, a villa in Malta allows for plenty of flexibility and independence, paired with a level of luxury and privacy that many can't do without each year. 

 

Although established resorts such as St. Paul's Bay, Qawra and Bugibba offer mainly hotels and self-catering apartments thanks to the extensive development along these coastal regions, there is plenty of choice for a villa holiday in Malta throughout the island. Sliema, with its elegant promenade and upmarket neighbourhoods, is home to a number of villas in Malta, whilst the sandy beaches of Mellieha and Paradise Bay offer the chance for sunbathing and water sports. Malta can be enjoyed in the former fishing village of Marsascala on the south coast, popular with both tourists and locals, whilst the capital, Valletta, boasts stunning views and easy access to the delights of the capital and its majestic harbour. The island of Gozo is a popular destination for a quiet villa holiday in Malta, with rural towns such as Gharb boasting rustic farmhouses in stunning surroundings, and providing a peaceful tranquil base. Features such as private swimming pools and terraces or patios with views really add to the appeal of a villa holiday in Malta, with all types and styles of property available, from budget villas to exclusive villas.

 

Thanks to the increasing number of flights into the island, especially on the budget airlines, holidays in a villa in Malta are more accessible than ever, and can often be a cost-effective choice for a summer getaway. The self-catering option of a villa holiday to Malta means guests can spend as much or as little money as they like, and have the option to relax in the comfort of their own home-away-from-home every day if they choose. For those looking to explore, a car is recommended if you are staying in a villa so you can really discover all that the isle has to offer, as the choice of day trips is extensive, from boat trips and excursions around Byzantine churches, to walking tours through the Maltese countryside.
