We (couple) have just returned from Neville's penthouse in St. Paul's Bay. The apartment is very nice and well-maintained and the view from the balcony is wonderful. Neville (name doesn't suit him - sorry Neville!) himself is a very helpful, friendly, easy-going guy who provides you with all the relevant info. For partygoers, this place is not recommended as it is far too quiet. Bugibba or even Mellieha would be better destinations in that case. You can also go to nearby Bugibba on foot if you fancy a bite to eat and drink etc. For a romantic few days away from the crowds though,or even for a family, we would recommend this place. We didn't rent a car and went everywhere by bus, which more or less is fine but be aware that the buses stop around 8pm or so at night so take that into consideration when you go somewhere, otherwise you have to cough up money for a taxi. The restaurant directly across the road is a good place to eat if you're too tired to go anywhere and its nice to sit outside under the stars with the wee local boats dotted around the harbour directly in front of you as opposed to big flashy yachts which one normally sees. All-in-all, a very pleasant relaxing place to be for a few days. Thanks Neville!

Two weeks in St. Paul's Bay

We spent one week in Neville’s apartment in St. Paul’s Bay and enjoyed it quite a lot. The penthouse was roomy and especially the living room was spacious enough for all of us (we were a group of five people). Planning our stay on the Maltese Islands, we found Neville’s nominations of touristic places very helpful.
Even though the St. Paul’s Bay is not a perfect bathing area, it is still good enough to refresh yourself and it guarantees you a beautiful look from your balcony.
With the busses departing every five minutes just in front of the flat’s front door it makes it easy to take a drive wherever you would like to go.

The apartment was excellent and in a wonderful position.
The owner was always on hand if there were to be any problems and apart from a very small leak there were none.
The only thing I could think of to improve would be the inclusion of an electric kettle. The gas takes a little while to boil the small kettle supplied.
The owner, as all Maltese people is extremely friendly and helpful and I would not hesitate in recommending his property to anyone.

Penthouse suite holiday 13th - 20th June 2009
Review Submitted: July 6, 2009
Date of Stay: June 2009
We couple (late 50's) stayed in the penthouse suite. The apartment was clean and tidy and the view from the balcony the best we have ever seen.
Neville's response to emails sent was faultless and he and Ruth were very helpful in rectifying a couple of minor faults we found with the apartment.
We found the terminology "close by" a little misleading and the area a little too quiet for us.
Recommended for couples wanting a relaxing peaceful area to stay.

My partner and I are (both aged 27) had not been to Malta before, however we loved Italy and Sicily so as it was so close we thought we'd give it a try. When we arrived at the apartment I was blown away by the view from the balcony. We found the apartment to be very clean and the owner to be wonderfully helpful. He made us feel like he was contactable in case there was anything we needed.
We hired a car and explored the Island, we were given a map by the car rental company and is was very easy get around the Island, it is virtually impossible to get lost. We visited a range of resturants, the prices varied from 30 Euros per meal - 100 Euros. There is a resturant called Venus that do a set menu for 20 Euros per person. We thought the food was fantastic and would recommend trying it.
Also if you are looking for a romantic time we visited Mdina. It is about 15 minutes drive from St. Pauls Bay. My boyfriend proposed to me in Baccus resturant. It was fabulous and so romantic. I will never forget it.
Malta in general is a very nice place, most places speak English and it all seemed very family friendly.
Overall a big thumbs up.

I found the flat nice. Though we stayed there in january we had preferred a little warmer flat. Could it have been warmed up a little bit before we came? All our things got moisty. We also complete with some things in the kitschen. Besides that we found it comfortable and the host was very nice and helpful.
