Luxury holidays to Malta

Chic harbours and grand hotels are just a taste of what Malta’s got in store, making it a top spot for luxury holidays.

The capital of Valletta

You’ll be following in the footsteps of royalty if you stay in Valletta. This gold-hued capital city stars a palace, priceless Renaissance artwork and regal Baroque architecture. Hotel Phoenicia is the place for a first-rate view of Valletta harbour. Staff even bring out high tea every afternoon. And from the capital city, it’s an easy day trip to the Medieval walls of Mdina Old City.

Sleep by the sea

Sandy beaches are like gold dust in Malta — but the ones it does have are as lovely as they come. Mellieha Bay pairs a sleepy hill town with a sandy scoop of a beach. It also hands out spa hotels like the Seabank Resort Spa. Sliema, meanwhile, is a VIP retreat with designer shops and see-and-be-seen lidos. The beach here is rocky, but five-star hotels do a fine line in Mediterranean views. Lively St Julian’s also offers a sprinkling of indulgent hotels with rooftop swimming pools and bars.
