Marsaskala accommodation from NZ$174

Lovely clean room and very spacious. Check in was busy and staff did not explain anything about the hotel or the facilities. Very busy around the pools but there are plenty of loungers - although I don’t think the hotel was at full capacity so unsure what it would be like if it was full. Nice pool bar and great views out to sea, Comino and Gozo. Great little shop. Really easy to book taxis and airport transfers from desk inside the hotel with very helpful staff member. The Italian restaurant food was lovely but staff again did not explain when handing out menus what dishes were not available. The lobby bar was good and staff there were great. All in all we would go back.

Perfect stay for me. Friendly and helpful staff, the pools were lovely, rooms were clean and I even got an upgrade which was greatly appreciated. Would love to come back. Good restaurants close by and the beach was not far of a walk.

On arrival as we were checking in we were brought a lovely cold local drink which was very refreshing. We were surprised to discover our Junior Suite was on an Executive floor, which meant we were able to use the Executive lounge while waiting for our room to be ready which was very pleasant as we were tired from our journey. Our room was beautiful with a sea view and a balcony from which we were able to watch the sun set each evening. The hotel staff were very attentive and our room was cleaned each morning and turned down each evening. At Check-in we had mentioned it was our anniversary during our visit as are were asking about a nice restaurant to book, and had a lovely surprise when we returned to our room on the day to a folded towel display of swans/hearts, with a poem, chocolates and a bottle of prosecco on ice! Breakfast was a buffet on the lower floor. There was an excellent choice of foods, including local treats, and you could order coffees, freshly squeezed juice and omelettes cooked to order. The hotel is part of a group with 2 others and you could use the facilities of all. There were 3 outdoor swimming pools and an indoor one with a jacuzzi, however our favourite place to swim was in the sea at the Lido. There were plenty of lounge chairs and parasols for shade and staff from the poolside restaurants regularly passed by to take drinks/food orders. We particularly enjoyed the cocktails! We are already planning on next trip!
