Grand Harbour, Valletta, Malta - sleeps six

The perfect base for your self-catering holiday in Malta, our apartment is situated on Dahlet Gnien Is-Sultan ('the Site of the Sultan's Garden') just outside the city walls of old Valletta, a World Heritage City, and within easy reach of all facilities and transport links. On the quayside just below us is the new fast ferry terminal to Gozo (takes 45 mins, every 2 hours - foot passengers only) and ferries across to the Three Cities.

The apartment has a balcony and large roof terrace, sleeps up to 6 people and is newly refurbished throughout with modern, stylish furniture and new appliances. Click on the photos section to see the interior, views and surrounding area (but our full 180-degree view was too big to upload!)

The apartment sleeps up to a maximum of 6 people and has one double bedroom, one twin bedroom and two double sofa beds in the living room. Modern and stylish bath/shower room, and a second guest toilet.

The accommodation is spacious - 142 sq metres or 1,525 sq ft - light and airy throughout with traditional Maltese features such as the rustic wooden shutters on the windows and balcony doors. There is a separate TV lounge with 120-channel XLHD cable TV. There is free internet access with unlimited data usage. Ample bed linen and towels are provided but please bring your own beach towels.

Large kitchen/breakfast room with lots of character (1960s retro-style) and a dining table seating six, fully equipped including coffee maker, kettle, toaster, washing machine, ironing facilities. We can provide a Welcome food pack containing tea, coffee and sandwich-making provisions for your arrival, if you wish.

The apartment balcony is small but has a patio-size glazed ceramic and wrought iron table and two chairs - perfect for your morning cup of coffee. The roof terrace, however, is very big with an olive tree, oleander and bougainvillea plants, a large garden table and six chairs where you can take your meals al-fresco, and two sun-loungers with a parasol.

Airport pick-up service by our own drivers. Flexible check-in times. Very friendly and helpful caretaker, maid cleaning prior to arrival and on departure.

Fab visit to Valletta
A well equipped apartment with superb access to Valletta. Wonderful views across the Grand Harbour from the shared terrace on the roof. The location is brilliant for travel across to the Three Cities with significant historical interest and its restaurants. We had a great time.

Great access to the ferries.
Right near the 3 cities, Gozo and Blue Lagoon ferries. Watch the mammoth cruise ships glide right out your kitchen window. The air conditioning is a life saver.

Valletta experience
We were keen to spend time in Valletta and this location ticked all the boxes for us. Spacious. Clean. Close proximity to the harbour and city. Steps away from the lift to/from Upper Barrakka Gardens making the heart of Valetta easily accessible.

Great apartment in a fantastic location
Very good communication. Really helpful local contact. Apartment itself is spacious and the air conditioning in the kitchen and both bedrooms is a godsend. Really enjoyed our stay despite getting all of September's average rain in the week we were there.

Great location !
Apartment was great - close to ferries, lift and buses. Easy to get into town or out to the other islands, 3 cities. Half bath is very small but works. View to harbor is god from the kitchen area; roof also has a view but no place to sit and enjoy the view, sip some wine, etc.

Perfect Holiday
We loved our stay at the Grand Harbour, accommodation was in a perfect spot, walking distance to busses, ferries & into to beautiful streets with all the shops, cafés & restaurants. The home had everything we needed & the housekeeper Sandra was fantastic, provided us with a few supplies for our arrival & organising our airport shuttle. We loved sitting on the little balcony watching the cruise ships pass by. Thank you Debra

Incredible location
The four of us relished the central position of the apartment. Views from the balcony were exceptional for the Fireworks on Saturday night. The apartment itself was comfortable and well appointed We came by car and found it quite difficult to locate, my texts did not get thru to the manager and it was a challenge to find her when I did make contact. These hassles would be eliminated by accepting the offer of their taxi & the manager getting food in would be a good idea

Great water views!
This gem of an apartment has great views of the harbor and near by church bell tower. The apartment has plenty of room with 2 different seating areas and 1 1/2 baths. Unless you want to walk up many flights of stairs, the way to get up into the the city center is to use then Barrakka Lift. The churches and Cathedral are very impressive. Be sure to get out of the city to see the Rabat, Mdina area.

Nice stay
Good location, especially if you are taking the fast ferry to Gozo. The water taxis also launch from just around the corner. Very large apartment with lots of space. The kitchen had everything we needed. The grocery is nearby and made it easy to eat several meals at home. Great communication with the person responsible for the apartment. Overall highly recommended!

Malta 2024
Loved the apartment. It was very easy to get to Valletta with the lift. Sandra was very helpful with information. Speed boat to Gozo was very close and spot to get the hop on and hop off bus was close. We found using the public bus to get around was very time consuming but using Bolt (Uber) was simple and not to expensive so we did both. My only complaint would be that there was no water pressure so it was very hard to was hair. It was only 13 Euro to get to the airport with Bolt.
