Property information

Hi there! I’m The 501 by Shmoo – your sunny home base in Sliema, just a 1-minute stroll from the sea. I’m perfectly placed for you to enjoy the very best of Malta: the scenic promenade, buzzing cafes and restaurants, beaches, supermarkets, and easy transport links like the ferry to Valletta and main bus routes across the island. Whether you’re here to explore, unwind, or soak up the sun, I’ve got you covered. Inside, you’ll find a bright and comfortable 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment with a side sea view and space to relax after your adventures. There’s air conditioning throughout, fast Wi-Fi, and a washing machine & dryer to make longer stays easy. The master bedroom has an ensuite, and the second bathroom has a bath tub. Whether you're a couple, a group of friends, or a small family, you'll feel right at home. Cook up breakfast or a sunset dinner in the fully equipped kitchen – or just store your local wines, beers and snacks in the fridge before heading out again. Want to explore? You’re seconds away from the promenade, perfect for morning walks or evening strolls. The nearby ferry takes you straight to Valletta in under 10 minutes, and buses to Mdina, Gozo, and the Three Cities are within walking distance. I’m tucked just far enough from the main road to keep things peaceful at night, but close enough to reach everything in minutes. That includes swim spots, boat cruises, nightlife, and plenty of local gems. Whether you’re here for sun and sea, sightseeing, or simply a great location to work remotely, I’m ready to host your Maltese getaway.
