Island of Malta holiday apartment: Bugibba, St. Paul's Bay

3 of us (M64,M32,F62) stayed for a fortnight in October 2009. For the first time on holiday abroad we did not use a car as the bus service was so convenient and accessible. We travelled to many places of interest including Valetta (4 times) - As described elsewhere looks like a suspended painting from a distance - fantastic and fascinating to explore. Mdina and Rabat - Atmospheric, wondrous to explore. 3 Cities (across from Valetta) - We spent a day just meandering around, mostly off any tourist circuit and a taste of real Malta. In Vittoriosa visited the Inquisition palace and Maritime Museum - both extremely interesting and the palace one of the few HQs of the Inquisition left intact anywhere. Went to Gozo for a day, the Capital, Victoria, highly recommended with splendid views from the citadel. Day on the beach at Mellieha was very pleasant. Malta is definitely a place to explore. After our travels on the Island we concluded that the best location for us was Bugibba/St Pauls/Qawra because of the sheer convenience of the location, easy access by bus (including direct routes avoiding changes at Valetta) to most locations, Excellent promenade extending for miles, vast choice of Cafes, Restauraunts, take aways, minimarkets, shops (even a diy/locksmith 150 yards from the front door of the Apartment), would recommend trying out the kiosks you will find on any walks selling snacks, meals, hot/cold drinks etc. Rita takes total pride in maintaining the accommodation to a 5 Star plus standard - immaculate. Above and beyond the call of duty she was present as we arrived on a late, delayed, flight well after mIdnight. She provided us with a generous get you in pack which allowed us to survive until well after breakfast on the first morning. She is available at the end of the phone in case of any problem or query and wants all her guests to enjoy all that Malta has to offer for a holiday. She is extremely amenable, pleasant and cooperative - an ideal Host. thank you Rita for all you did for us and we would recommend any of your properties, without reservation, to anyone thinking of visiting Malta.
And finally, we found all the Maltese people we met very friendly and helpful if you have any query about anything on your travels. although many Britons are attracted to Bugibba lots of Germans around while we were there, plus numbers of Dutch, Scandinavians,etc. A large local presence as well to add to the pleasant and friendly atmosphere - a 10 out of 10 holiday

Ho soggiornato con la mia famiglia (coniugi ultrasessantrenni e due ragazzi) nella prima settimana di settembre presso l'appartamento. Si tratta di una eccellente sistemazione, sia sul piano logistico, per la sua posizione centrale che consente di avere tutta l'isola a portata di ,, piede, sia per le caratteristiche strutturali dell'appartamento, comodo, spazioso, moderno, elegante, dotato di ogni comfort possibile, compreso l'uso di un garage privato per l'eventuale autovettura, A ciò deve aggiungersi la squisita gentilezza e grandissima disponibilità della proprietaria, sig.a Ritta Casser, che si prodiga in ogni modo possibile per rendere confortevole il soggiorno ed alla quale va un sincero ringraziamento.

Me and my Husband and our two kids stayed here for a few days as an extended holiday after staying over in Gozo . We were impressed with the apartment and it was much bigger than we were expecting.
Rita was so lovely and really helpful. She made us feel very welcome, and prepared little touches such as milk and bread and fresh herbs from her garden for our arrival.
We wanted to cook ourselves rather than eat out, and there was everything we needed in the kitchen, even basics such as salt, pepper, tea, coffee.
Rita has fantastic taste and has furnished every room to a really high standard.
Our children really enjoyed their stay as did we, and we have promised Rita that should we return to Malta next year we would def. use her place again.
Thank you Rita for your attention to detail, your flexibility and your great hospitality x
