If you’re looking for a destination that combines natural beauty, rich history, and a relaxed atmosphere, Malta is the perfect choice. I’ve visited Malta three times, most recently in October 2024, and each trip brought new discoveries and unforgettable moments. This Mediterranean gem, with over 7,000 years of history, is a destination worth exploring in any season.
During my last two visits, I chose to stay at the Londoner Hotel in St. Julian’s, a modern and comfortable hotel opened just over a year ago. Its spacious rooms, rooftop pool with stunning views, and convenient location near restaurants and attractions make it a fantastic choice. Additionally, the Londoner recently introduced a lounge and pool area for ultimate relaxation.
For those who prefer a central location with a vibrant atmosphere, Londoner Hotel in Sliema is another excellent option. Situated along the seafront, it offers breathtaking views and easy access to the lively city vibes.
Malta offers countless attractions and experiences, whether you’re a history enthusiast, a nature lover, or just looking to relax on its stunning beaches.
Malta is brimming with cultural, historical, and natural treasures. Here are some highlights from my trips:
Valletta – The Historical Capital
Mdina – The Silent City
This medieval walled city offers narrow streets, historical architecture, and a tranquil atmosphere. Don’t miss Coogi’s Pizzeria, where I had one of the best pizzas of my life!
Popeye Village
Originally built as a film set, this colorful theme park offers fun activities, beautiful views, and Instagram-worthy spots.
Mediteraneo Marine Park
A small marine park featuring dolphin shows, parrot displays, and more. While it’s charming, it might not impress if you’ve visited larger marine parks.
Vibrant Areas: Sliema, St. Paul’s Bay, and St. Julian’s
These areas are bustling with great restaurants, scenic views, and lively atmospheres. Portomaso Marina in St. Julian’s is a great spot for an evening stroll and a glimpse into Malta’s luxurious lifestyle.
