San Anton Holidays

San Anton’s more an area than a town, and adds to the patchwork of villages, towns and citrus orchards that make up the island’s mid region of Attard. It’s perfectly placed to take advantage of the various sights that pepper the island – like Mdina. This city’s a 15-minute drive away and has a quiet, old world style.

Those interested in history will love Malta, and the area of San Anton – and its neighbours, like Ta’ Qali and Lija – are a history hound’s paradise. People have populated Attard since 3000BC, and you can visit haunting catacombs and tombs, or step into one of the area’s many Medieval churches.

This place has got a stylish edge to it, perhaps because it’s where the president of Malta lives – in the Grand Master’s Palace. You can visit the San Anton Gardens here, and might even catch a glimpse of the president pottering round them if you’re lucky.
