Great views - property needs maintenance

Stunning views from both balconies, good communication from hosts and the area of Marsaskala is lovely. Hosts were flexible with time in/out of the apartment. Property was let down by lack of maintenance in the bathroom and bedroom area. Toilet leaking at the base all over the floor and the set up for the shower is very poor. Clients should not have to put cloths on the floor/against the shower as instructed to mop up excess leakage each time you shower. It was bordering on dangerous to go into the bathroom in the middle of the night with the leakage and then bring that back into the bedroom tiled area on your feet. When it rained, the terrace flooded & leaked into the bedroom. We lost an airpod down the slats of the bed and had to move the bed to find it, bed not moved in some time as extremely dusty/dirty underneath. Electric socket in the kitchen started sparking when used. We referred to the walk to the property as cardio respiratory hill, not suitable for people with disabilities but we got there in the end. Not great to use old fleece synthetic sheets on the bed, cotton only please for asthma sufferers! Overall we enjoyed the stay despite the issues but they need addressing.

Wonderful apartment with an amazing view

This apartment is really nice, with the two balcony’s to the north and the south you will have a stunning view over the city and the bay. In the apartment there is everything you need, if we needed something George and Cynthia are really kind and will help you as soon as possible. They also offer an airport transfer. The apartment ist located at the top of a hill but it’s worth the walk. There are 2/3 shops open every day to shop some groceries where you find anything you need. Also bus station is 5 min away and you can travel in 1-2 hrs to anywhere on the island with the bus which is also very cheap. In Marsaskala the city there is also a little beach 20 min walk away. We loved it !

Udsigtenvarfantastisk

Vi fik en fin modtagelse. Lejligheden har en fantastisk udsigt. Lidt ærgerligt at det ikke er blevet opprioritere at have lækre møbler udenfor. Beliggenheden er fin og central. Sengen ca 160 cm bred.

Clean, comfortable apartment in a great location

This penthouse apartment (with a lift) is situated at the top of the hill giving great views of the harbour and countryside. The rear terrace is large with chairs and sun loungers. Because it is the end apartment you can sit in the sun from mid morning to sunset. The apartment is well equipped and the owner, George, was very helpful and responds promptly to any questions. It is easy to walk to the Harbour, where there is a range of restaurants, bars and coffee shops. However be aware that there is a short, steep hill to climb when walking back to the apartment.

Très bien

Logement agréable avec deux belles terrasses,vue sur le port et une vue sur la montagne.Calme dans un impasse. Bien équipé, cependant la douche mériterait un rafraichissement. Georges est très disponoble,serviable,il est venu nous chercher et nous emmener à l'aeroport. L'appartement est à 10 minutes a pieds des commerces et restaurants,et d'un arret de bus. L'ile est bien desservi,même si c'est parfois un peu long,ne pas se fier aux horaires!! Nous avons passé un bon séjour.

TWO BALCONIES WITH SUN ALL DAY AND GREAT VIEWS OF THE HARBOUR

A lovely apartment but the hill up to it is so steep if you are not good on your pins like my Mum found as she is 85. No buses up the hill and local taxis don't like short journeys. Most things provided in the apartment but we had to buy kitchen roll, toilet rolls and black bin bags. We had a very relaxing time but we only went out once or twice a day because of the steep hill back to the apartment. We has some lovely meals out with Auntie Gill and Marsaskala is a beautiful place to stay.

A quiet apartment with great double aspect views

A warm welcome from George who kindly met us at the airport. Great apartment with everything we needed. Comfortable bed, lots of storage and metered air con as required. George promptly sorted out any issues when asked. The downside were the flanelette sheets.....no!

Good base to explore Malta

A very clean and well presented apartment, with two terraces to make the most of the morning and evening sun of which there was plenty. Transfers from the airport was provided by George, the owner and was much appreciated. There were lovely views over Marsascala harbour which we enjoyed every evening. We were only a 5 minute walk from the Bus terminus which had several routes going to other parts of the island. We made the most of this by buying an explorer card from the Bus station in Valletta. We found this an excellent base from which to explore Malta during our stay.

Excellent support from George. Nice apartment with great view over Marsascala. Only five minutes by foot to the next bus stop. Unfortunately it was to windy to use the sun terrace.

Lovely place with a great view!

Lovely well equipped apartment with a wonderful view across the harbour to the sea. Lots of ships coming and going. View across open country in the other direction. Free wifi. The owner George does a free pickup and drop off from the airport. Marsascala nice and laid back with great restaurants around the harbour, and good stores for food etc. Steep climb back up the hill but keeps you fit!! Balcony at one side and terrace at the other so you can always get the sun. Only downsides are a hard mattress which George says he is replacing soon, the shower could do with a refresh and the hot water takes an age to come through. Wouldn't put us off staying again!

Tolle Lage mit fantastischer Aussicht

George ist ein sehr freundlicher, hilfsbereiter Gastgeber, der uns kostenlos vom Flughafen abgeholt und hingefahren hat. Danke! Das Apartment (ganz oben auf einem Hügel) ist groß und gut geschnitten mit zwei tollen Dachterrassen: Eine mit Blick auf den Ort und die Bucht, eine große mit Sitzgruppe und Liegen mit Blick auf's Land. Die Ausstattung ist gut, es ist alles vorhanden, was man braucht (ein paar alte Lebensmittel-Reste und Putzutensilien sollte man mal entsorgen). Hier und da könnte es etwas sauberer und besser gepflegt sein. Sofa und Matratze sollten unbedingt ausgetauscht werden. Nachts ist es sehr still. Morgens um 7 Uhr beginnt das Leben: Kirchturm-Glocken und Jäger, die - jetzt in der Jagd-Saison - Vögel schießen. An langes Ausschlafen ist nicht zu denken. Insgesamt ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Marsaskala ist ein guter Ausgangsort für die Besichtigung der Insel mit Bus oder Auto.

Spacious and comfortable

The apartment was clean and very spacious having a huge bedroom with a view of the countryside and a large living room and kitchen area with its view of the harbour. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and we enjoyed breakfasting on the terrace in the sun. It was very quiet but also near the facilities,a small supermarket and the bus stop to reach other areas of the island were only10 minutes walk away and there were lots of restaurants down at the harbour. All in all this was a good base for a stay in Malta and with the extra touches provided by George we would recommend it to others.He kindly met us at the airport and delivered us to the apartment where he had generously provided us with a welcome pack of food items and at the end of the week, took us back to the airport and as it was an evening flight he had kindly looked after our luggage all day. It was great customer service!

Maraskala holiday flat

Lovely flat, the terraces are great for sitting in the sun, enjoying the views. Located at the top of a hill so good for what ever breeze there is in the hot weather. George collected us from and took us to the airport. Very reasonably priced. Close to shops, restaurants, designated swimming areas in bay and bus stops. 45 minute bus ride to Valetta, the buses are easy to use.

Good apartment

We stayed in February with warm sun, cool fresh winds and mostly overnight rain. Sitting in bed with a cup of tea we had a view through the north west facing balcony up the valley. All our breakfasts were had in the sun on the south east facing balcony with spectacular views over the town and harbour. George was very welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed. There was a good variety of restaurants in town which is a fast walk down the steep hill and a much slower one back up! There are lovely coastal walks especially round to Marsasloxx. Buses are frequent and cost only 1.50 euros all day per person. A lovely apartment and a great place to stay. We plan to go back to the flat at a later date.

About the host

Hosted by Cynthia Debono Mizzi

My name is George and I live in the locality of Zurrieq in Malta together with my wife Cynthia and our two daughters, Michela and Julia. Azure Bay Holidays is a small family run business which we have established and run jointly for the last ten years. To note that it originally was set up as GCM Holiday Apartments.

How did we start?
The first property making up the portfolio of Azure Bay Holidays was Ta' Kurun property in the locality of Marsascala in October 2006. After 5 years renting Ta' Kurun apartment, we bought our second property adjacent to the first one. This is called Ta' Rosi apartment which accommodates 5 persons.

We have very recently invested our energies in expanding our portfolio of apartments through the addition of these properties:
- Sunspray apartment situated in Mellieha which is a quaint village in the northern part of the island surrounded by nice beaches and numerous tourist attractions;
-Ta` Juli and Ta` Marron apartments both located in Marsascala and offer a chance for a relaxing holiday in comfortable surroundings;
- T`Annamari Townhouse which is a one-bedroom property ideal for a romantic getaway; and
- Bahbuha apartment located in Qala, Gozo which is Malta`s sister island. This two-bedroom apartment is about 15 minutes walk from the popular beach of Hondoq ir-Rummien.

What is our motto?
Our motto is to offer accommodations of good value so that this increases the entire holiday package which the Maltese Islands have to offer to its tourists.

Why they chose this property

Although not far from the centre, the area of Bella Vista in Marsascala is very quiet

This property offers an escape to guests who wish to relax and enjoy a tranquil holiday away from the hassle and bustle of everyday life, Sipping a glass of wine on the terraces of the apartment watching the sun rising or setting is surely a dream come true for all those who are tied up in busy schedules and stuffy offices all day long.

This location is minutes away from the capital city Valletta, Victoriosa, Cospicua, Senglea and Marsaxlokk. A bus terminus is just 500 meters away. There is a direct bus service to these locations while other locations can be reached by changing buses at the airport or at Valletta. The public transport is quite efficient and relatively cheap.

What makes this property unique

From staying in Ta` Kurun apartment, you will:

- be hosted by the Owners who have a passion for hospitality;
- be staying in a clean, comfortable and charming apartment equipped with all amenities;
- within 500 meters from a bus terminus which makes it quite cental;
be within 5 minutes` walk away from the Marsascala Harbour, the
beautiful promenade, the many restaurants, shops and cafeterias which surround the entire area. Within easy reach, one can enjoy the Maltese lifestyle and cuisine;
- be central to the many beautiful sights of Malta e.g Ghar Dalam, Hypogeum, Mamo Tower, St. Thomas Bay, etc;
- can easily have a quick dip in the cool waters of Marsascala. This is surely not to be missed;
- easily commute to the northern part of the island as nowhere in Malta is really far away. The public transportation is efficient and cheap and there is a thrust in Malta to improve the overall road infrastructure;
- be within 20 minutes` away from the Malta International Airport.
