Manoel De Vilhena Holiday Apartments by Buena Vista

I had an amazing stay at this 2-bedroom apartment! Everything was brand new and thoughtfully designed, making it a very comfortable and enjoyable experience. The apartment had all the necessary amenities, and the WiFi was excellent, which was a big plus. The entry system with the code was very convenient and secure. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful, ensuring a smooth check-in and a pleasant stay. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a hassle-free and comfortable stay. Would definitely book again!

Our apartment was as shown in the pictures. The apartment was freezing cold when we arrived and the only option for heating is a/c in the two bedrooms. No heating in the living room/kitchen and toilets/bathroom. There is a tiled floor throughout the apartment, which makes it cold to the feet. Upon request, we were provided with an electric radiator, but were also made aware that we would have to pay for the electricity that was in addition to the daily quota. The pillows in the bedrooms were hard and round, cylinder-shaped, approx. 20 cm high and filled with pieces of foam rubber. These types of pillows are only for decoration and not for sleeping. Furthermore, there were no bedside lamps in the bedrooms, only a very harsh white ceiling light. A small investment in bedside lamps and pillows can make a big difference. Communication with the host's staff was quick and pleasant. Please note that it can be very difficult to find free parking spaces in Malta.

- Good location. The street is not quiet, but it is near 4-5 bus stops and 15 min from Valletta. Easy to go around. Also walk 10 min and you are on the seafront, absolutely perfect for a warm evening stroll. Many restaurants around. - I read reviews about hard beds and tall pillows, but for me they were ok. - We stayed the 2 of us, so each one had their own bathroom. Very good! - There is a small but quite useful mini market 5-7 min on foot. - There is a file on the table full of tips about where to go and what to eat. Very good.

- The pick up service is useful, but the pick-up car is quite hard to find, being the street in front of the airport always full of other buses and cars. - The host is slow to reply. We had to wait more than half a day to know how to turn on the cooking system. For those who wonder: there is a red switch on the kitchen wall next to the plugs. Push that, and it will turn on. - The listing advertises “rooms with balcony”, but the first floor where we stayed has NONE. Just a small, sewer smelly one on the interior, where you can dry the laundry. It would be helpful to write it in advance. - The tv has no antenna cable. Only Youtube and Netflix, so if you do not want to input your private account details, no tv for you. - The rules are too strict. There is a price list for everything you should pay in the room if you were to break it. Also, you can be evicted if you are too noisy. I accept everything, but we couldn’t fully relax at night. Makes me wonder: what if you get reported by the upper neighbor for something that was actually not your fault? - I don’t know if the guy fell asleep, simply forgot or whatever, but the pick up service we booked at check-out (to the airport, 25 euro) was more than 30 min late and because of that we risked big time. Use Uber.

We had an amazing experience staying at this apartment in Gzira. The location is unbeatable – just a few steps from the beautiful promenade, with easy access to restaurants, cafes, and shops. Valletta is only a short bus ride or ferry trip away, making it convenient to explore the city. The apartment itself was beautifully furnished, with a modern and stylish design. Everything felt brand new and the attention to detail was impressive. The living space was spacious, clean, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including a well-stocked kitchen for cooking. The Wi-Fi was fast, and the air conditioning worked perfectly, which was a bonus during the hot summer days. Overall, this apartment exceeded our expectations! It was the perfect base for our holiday in Malta, offering a combination of comfort, convenience, and style. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-located holiday rental.
