Where You’re Staying

Rooms and suites feature Mediterranean tile floors and stunning views of the sea and the historic city of Valletta. Select suites offer separate living spaces and private balconies.

Where to Dine

Contessa, where high-end Southern Mediterranean cuisine is an everyday luxury offers an innovative blend of Maltese and European flavors, while the trendy BeefBar specializes in creative street food and steakhouse classics. Enjoy a sandwich or fresh gelato overlooking the harbor at The Bastion Pool Bar & Restaurant. Linger over a martini in the chic Club Bar. For a fresh pastry or afternoon tea, head to The Palm Court Lounge.

Where to Relax

The outdoor pool provides panoramic views of the harbor. Book a treatment at Phoenicia Spa & Wellness and ask for a yoga session by the pool or the restful garden. The island’s many beaches offer opportunities for snorkeling, seclusion, or festivities.

What to Do

Go for a sail on the Mediterranean Sea. Hop on a fast ferry to explore the sister island of Gozo. Explore the megaliths, medieval dungeons, Baroque palaces, and iconic caves that make the Maltese Islands legendary, and that have found their way onto the screen as the setting for high fantasy and summer blockbusters.
