Apartments in Malta: Accommodation Next to the Sea

Malta is located at the heart of the Mediterranean, south of Sicily and north of Libya and has the highest population density in the European Union. The archipelago covers 316 square kilometers and is comprised of three main islands and various islets. It has a mild climate all year round yet water is in short supply and all water consumed there is supplied by Europe. Several famous films have been shot in Malta and its tourist industry focuses on high-end tourism. Its coveted geopolitical location meant that it was occupied many times throughout the course of its history. The island finally gained independence from the British Empire in September 1964. Its culture is an incredible blend of both Italian and British influences with Maltese and English being the spoken languages. Its gastronomy is a fusion of flavors that reveal Spanish, Sicilian Italian and Turkish influences. The architecture of the island is a reflection of the history of occupation and shows the influence of the Phoenicians, the French under Napoleon, the Italians, the Spanish and the British. Its medieval architecture is a particularly attractive feature to tourists.

La Valetta , the capital city, is home to numerous excellent restaurants, shops, bars and cafés. If you are a sun and sea worshipper then the island has stunning coves with crystal-clear water where you can go diving. They are not far from typical restaurants where you can go for a drink or snack. For those who love adventure sports there are some incredible locations to go climbing, hiking and paragliding. If nightlife is more your thing, visit Paceville in the modern neighborhood of St. Julian. It is a hotbed of dancing, drinks and vibrant activity.

If you want your holidays to be unforgettable and experience the magic of being at the heart of the Mediterranean, our apartments in Malta offer you a range of accommodation in this perfect location.
