Unique winter heated / covered pool, open skies in summer, year round fun & swim

A combination of 2 tranquil villa apartments with all amenities in this exclusive part of Malta. Quiet and peaceful yet only minutes away from the entertainment hub of Paceville and the more popular St. Julians Bay with its many restaurants and great bars. Properties also enjoys the use of a large swimming pool (41 sq m), sunbeds, deckchairs, hammock swing, gazebo seating for 8, barbecue area with its own fridge and kitchen facilities, shower and WC facilities by pool area. A marquee of 6m x4m is also put up during the summer season who exclusive outside dining and also to take shade from the scorching sun during the day. The pool area, and most of the deck area are enclosed by a retractable cover in what is an enclosed pool in winter, and an open pool in summer. The pool is heated in autumn and winter to 28 degrees, thus guaranteeing its use any time of year in a setting which is unmatched. Access to pool area is via wooden bridge over large cascading koy fish pond. A further gazebo with vine tree is adjacent to a smaller water turtle pond. Very romantic setting in this hilltop area with extensive views of Malta, where the tropical garden and the cascading waters from the fish ponds continue to add to the serenity that the whole place seems to create.


Our pets: Our garden, although small, is very mature and extremely well kept, providing a tranquil atmosphere, also helped by the sound of the cascading waters in the background. Our own pets, (cats and dog), other than the koy fish and turtles already mentioned, also have their own separate dens, and are well kept, pampered and cared for.

What we stand for.: We have been called ‘a home away from home’ by some of our past guests, a name which honours us completely, and while we continue to dispense recommendations on what to do and where to go during your stay to help you better discover these culture-packed islands, we will strive to live up to that name and better our product.

Malta 2024
We stayed in the two villas, which were supposed to accommodate more than 10 people, but that was not the case. There were only 3 rooms, the rest were a series of beds and bunk beds, distributed in corridors and kitchens. Only 1 of the rooms was completely free from sunlight, both other rooms and the places where the beds were located made it impossible to sleep as soon as the sun rise. In one of the beds, next to a door, whoever slept there woke up to sunlight and ants on their body. In reality, the two villas were nothing more than the basement of a house, with humidity and sound problems. About the outside, very good, the swimming pool was great, the place for eating outside was also very good. We just leave a tip for the owner, too much furniture and decoration greatly reduces the outdoor space.

Our stay at Colours was a dream!
We couldn't find a fault with anything, it's even more magical than the pictures project . From start to finish the owners, Paul and Josanne were more than nice and welcoming to us and there was nothing they couldn't help us with. A party of 12 of us had the entire place to ourselves and the children were kept well amaued at the pool area which is amazing! I would highly recommend staying at Colours and I hope some day to go back. Just perfect thanks Paul and Josanne and your son for everything x Matina, Paul and family from Ireland

Les vacances !
Très bon sejour à Malte, la location est bien située sur l'ile ce qui permet de profiter de malte a fond ! Concernant la location, le coin piscine (avec la grotte) est exceptionnel, les photos sont vraiment représentatives, et l'extérieur avec les bassins a poissons, les tortues, les bananiers plamiers etc... sont top! Pour ce qui est des appartements, il ne sont pas exceptionnel mais on profite avant tout de l'infrastructure. Nous avons eu dans un appartement beaucoup d'humidité du a des précipitations hors normes sur malte en mois. Cela nous a pas empecher de passer de tres bonnes vacances. (Paul a meme fait un geste commercial appréciable) Pour ce qui est de Paul justement, tres agréable et tres disponible, on a été tres bien reçu. Pour résumer je recommande ! Passer des vacances en short tong a 27 degrés avec un ciel bleu alors qu'en france il faisait 12 degrés avec de la pluie c'etait quand meme tres sympa 😁😁😁

Really nice stay
We had a really good time there !! We were a group of 16ppl, Paul has been so helpful from the moment we made the reservation til the moment we left, even with COVID context!! We had the 3 apartments for our our group and the full access to the poil and the terrace and garden. Paul is living in the house in front of the pool but has been very discreet and available anytime de needed. He was been very kind all the time. The beds were comfy, the 4/5 bathrooms very useful when you are a big group but the best part is definitely the pool area!! As beautiful as it appears on the pictures :) Thanks a lot again !!

Malta ist auf jeden Fall ein Ziel wert, eine wunderschöne Insel
Die Vermieter waren sehr nett, haben uns viele Informationen zu kommen lassen und standen uns immer zur Verfügung, wenn wir Fragen hatten. Zu den Wohnungen sollte man wissen, dass der maltesische Standard nicht dem deutschen Standard gleicht, d.h. Die Wohnungen befinden sich im Kellergeschoss, daher auch schlechte Lüftungsmöglichkeit sowie schlechtes Licht. Sie sind von der Einrichtung sehr spärlich gehalten und sehen schon sehr verwohnt aus. Wer allerdings nur zum schlafen das Haus nutzen möchte, dafür reicht es. Die Außenanlage ist dafür umso schöner, attraktiver und einladend eingerichtet. Wenn das Wetter mitspielt, kann man dort schöne Stunden verbringen. Da wir viel von Malta sehen wollten und das Wetter nicht für die Poolanlage geeignet war, konnten wir diesen leider nicht nutzen.
