Alles in allem hatten wir einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt!
Pros:

Die Pluspunkte dieses Hotels sind die Aussicht aus den Meerblick-Zimmern, der Rooftop-Pool, die Lage und das zugehörige Restaurant. Die angebotenen Speisen und auch das Frühstück waren sehr gut.
Sämtliche Angestellten waren durchwegs zuvorkommend und immer sehr freundlich. Die Zimmer wurden täglich gereinigt.

Cons:

Schade ist aber, dass der generelle Unterhalt der eigentlich hochwertigen Ausstattung vernachlässigt wird.
Ein Minuspunkt ist auch, dass alle Spa-Anwendungen aufs Zimmer gebucht werden müssen, da es eigentlich keinen Wellnessbereich gibt.
In einem Spa-Resort würde ich mir eine neutrale und dezentere Musik am Pool auf der Dachterrasse wünschen.

Einfach gut
Pros:

Sehr modernes Hotel mit aussergewöhnlichen Einrichtung. Das Frühstück war vielfältig (u.a. mehrere Menüvorschläge), alles lecker. Und
was gibt es Schöneres, als auf der Dachterrasse zu schwimmen. Bus in der Nähe.

Would totally come back
Pros:

This hotel has an amazing view from the room where you can get access to sea. Very nice poor area and restaurant has an amazing food and staff.
They were very friendly and kind to us.
Also i would very recommend the room with access to the sea and private jacuzzi. You will not regret 😎

Cons:

You can tell is a new build, so there some final touch ups to do in the -3rd floor. Nothing that affected our stay and enjoyment.

Best hotel in Malta
Pros:

We stayed at this hotel for a whole week, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The hotel is absolutely beautiful and luxurious, with stunning rooms that made us feel special from the very first moment. The view from the terrace was simply indescribable — waking up every morning to the breathtaking view of the sea and the bay was magical.

From the moment we arrived, the hotel staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They assisted us with transportation options and recommended the best places and activities to enjoy in Malta.

The breakfasts were delicious and very diverse. We loved that we could both order from the menu and enjoy the buffet selection. Everything was fresh and high quality — amazing food, fruits, and drinks every morning.

This was our engagement week, so we hoped everything would go perfectly, but we never expected it to turn out this wonderfully. The hotel and its professional team helped create a truly unforgettable week for us.

A very special thank you to the reception girls — you always asked us how our day had been and genuinely made us feel at home.

Even though we had to leave early on Sunday before breakfast, the hotel still prepared breakfast boxes for us to take away, which we truly appreciated.

Every little detail in this hotel was clearly a priority for the team, so once again — a huge, huge thank you to all of you.

We will definitely return… maybe for our honeymoon? ❤️

Cons:

7 days fly away!Need more days in this place.

sejour au calme
Pros:

Magnifique emplacement avec une très jolie vue. La chambre jaccuzzi a une vue au top. le petit dej super. la piscine très agréable car pour un rooftop on peut nager.

Cons:

L' entrée toute sombre en arrivant et l odeur de piscine à l intérieur. la deco qui ne rend pas pareil en vrai, trop tape a l oeil. Les plantes en plastiques qui font très mauvais gout. Le manque d attention du personnel, j ai dit lors de mes échanges que je venais fêter mes 60 ans , rien, pas une attention, dommage.

Would have been 5 stars if not for one major issue.
Pros:

We recently stayed at this hotel and overall had a fantastic experience. The pool area and sun loungers were genuinely the best we’ve ever used at any hotel. Plenty of space, never crowded, incredibly comfortable loungers, and a stunning view that made relaxing effortless. Staff around the pool were attentive without being intrusive, which really added to the experience.

Breakfast was another highlight. Great choice, everything cooked nicely, and the staff were prompt, friendly, and efficient. Absolutely worth the money. The staff in the sports bar were also great and food very good.

Our room was quirky in design but a good standard overall, clean, tidy, and comfortable.

Cons:

However, there was one very serious issue that unfortunately overshadowed an otherwise excellent stay. The patio door in our bedroom would not lock. We reported this promptly, only to receive via WhatsApp a couple of days later, a patronising video of someone pretending to lock it and claiming it was fixed. It clearly wasn’t. I then had to ask the (reluctant) hotel staff to come and view the issue with me, and I couldn’t shake the impression that they already knew this was a previously reported or ongoing problem. If the hotel wishes to challenge this feel free. After 4 days of complaining about this issue i just gave up.

Had we been on a higher floor, this wouldn’t have been a concern, but our room could be accessed via a fixed set of steps across a small flat roof adjacent to the breakfast area. This made the lack of a working lock unacceptable.

The hotel did offer free safe boxes at reception, but this completely missed the point, especially as the receptionist seemed more interested in their mobile phone than the guests. On several occasions, guests had to initiate a greeting just to get their attention.

It’s a shame, because with that one issue resolved, this would easily have been a five‑star stay. The facilities, pool, breakfast, and general comfort were excellent. But security matters, and the way it was handled needs serious improvement. Hotel guests safety should be paramount and for this reason alone we will not be staying here again.

Manque de finition pour un 4*
Pros:

L'emplacement, le cadre, les équipements, le personnel les piscines!

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner moyen
Les finitions de la chambre moyen ( papier peint décollé, miroir cassé, alèse de lit à l'envers, balai des toilettes rouillé)
C'est dommage sinon c'est super comme espace avec l'accès à la mer direct.

Pros:

Emplacement à l'écart des foules, même si proche d'une route avec de la circulation. Mieux vaut choisir vue côté mer. Aménagements de l'hôtel très bien avec piscine en rooftop, plage aménagée avec bains de soleil. Le personnel est très prévenant et très agréable.

Cons:

Parking compliqué dans la rue

Miłe zaskoczenie, na pewno tu wrócimy.
Pros:

Pyszne jedzenie, bardzo ładne pokoje, dźwiękoszczelne okna dzięki czemu ewentualne hałasy z zewnątrz nie przeszkadzały w wypoczynku, widoki w restauracji i na basenie na dachu super. Wystrój bardzo klimatyczny. Przemiła obsługa.
