    Location is great and near convenient shops. A good place to use as base for seeing Malta if you have a hire car! The pool is amazing and the villa is charming and full of character. Lino, the host, is super friendly and helpful too!

The villa is professionally designed by the owner and often featured in some local tv-shows, high class fashion and home decor magazines. The house is full of unusual features that have been enhanced and decorated with lots of effort to maintain a high level of comfort and tranquility. There is a blend of colourful old and new furnishing throughout this villa surrounded by strong old stone features. The villa entrance hall takes you to an enormous sitting/ living and dining room complete with fireplace and seating for 6 persons, There are several sections of the house that lead to the pool deck from downstairs or upstairs on the higher level.There is also a second more casual living room that leads to the kitchen area which is modern equipped for self catering accommodation and interconnects with a central courtyard. Accommodation in this villa in Malta sleeps a maximum of 12 persons on an extra bed or neatly laid out put up bed or mattress that can be arranged in one of the main bedrooms or other sections of the house Can take booking for 5 nights on request.
Within walking distance of the Zurrieq village church square, one will find most of all amenities nearby by walk. The village is relatively tranquil , laid back and very typical of an authentic maltese village. Having a car is a plus in Malta and gives you more freedom, but getting around by bus is also easily possible. There is a short walk to the nearest bus stop and the new bus system offers travellers several new routes to practically anywhere around the maltese islands. For entertainment , heading towards st Julians or Sliema is just a 15 to 20 minute drive or bus ride. There are several beaches to choose from, whether you like the rocky beaches or sandy beaches, Malta has a selection of good beaches plus several other hidden spots to discover for swimming. Getting to a beach from this property is easy - the closest is near the blue grotto and venturing around the Maltese Islands is possible from under 1 hour.
