We booked this fairly last minute on a bed and breakfast basis as we were wanting to tour the island and eat out. We were told by the tour operator that there was construction work in the vicinity. We didn't find this an issue as we had a room facing the sea. There's lots of construction work in Malta at the moment as they appear to be upgrading many apartments and hotels so you can't really avoid it. The breakfast was the usual buffet style and suited us fine. Staff were very nice and room was kept clean every day. The only fault was the lack of information on display in the foyer telling guests what was on each day in the hotel. The roof terrace is for adults only and very nice with affinity pools and plenty of loungers etc. I preferred sitting up there as it was quieter. The family pool area across the road is accessed via a tunnel and you're given towels for the duration of your stay to use in either area plus it also has plenty of loungers. You can buy drinks and snacks in both pool areas. They're still working inside the hotel getting rooms finished but as we were on the 7th floor we didn't find this an issue. Our room was nice but we thought it unusual that it had a glass corner in the shower cubicle which didn't give you much privacy when using the toilet or having a shower as you were visible from the bedroom. I don't think this is a good feature especially if you're on holiday with a friend or other family members. Hairdryer, iron, toiletries, towels, kettle, tea/coffee/milk are all supplied and replaced daily. We would definitely recommend the hotel plus is in a central location.

We had the buffet there last Sunday and were thoroughly delighted. From the friendly welcome at the main entrance to the prompt service during lunch and the food was the best buffet food we've ever tasted with the quality and flavors we we're spoilt for choice. Well done keep up the good work. We'll be back

Great and new hotel but is’s not finished building and a lot of dust and building noise from the hotel itself plus next door building (July2023).
Great roof top facilities with infinity pools, whirlpools and a bar. Unfortunately loud music until late night that disturbs even though the rooms are relatively sound proof. Mostly techno music.
There is a pool with sun beds across the road giving access to the ocean. Some Water sports directly Oceanside. Medium Friendly hotel
Staff, service minded kitchen staff but seem new in the job with little experience. Good food.
Great air conditioning in the room; silent and effective.
Poor availability for lifts (half of them out of order) and stairs - the stairs and even the emergency exits lead to construction areas. Good capacity for larger groups (football teams etc).
No sun on the room balcony’s.
Incredibly complicated and slow reception personell and system, everything must be cleared via email and The Management.
The hotel is in a pretty quiet part of the island without much party. Except groceries and some tourist shops there are little shopping opportunities in the area.

We had booked 1 week all inclusive at this hotel (tomorrow is our last day).
Before our departure, we knew that this hotel was newly renovated/opened and so there was a chance that it would not be completely finished. We wanted to take this "risk" anyway because it looked beautiful on the pictures.
From the first moment we arrived until now we have not regretted our choice for one moment. The hotel has been beautifully renovated. It all looks very luxurious (even the details were looked at).
As mentioned in previous reviews things are still being finished here and there but we knew that so for us this was certainly not a problem.
The pools are beautiful. Downstairs there is a family pool with 2 slides. Perfect for families with children.
On the top floor you have 2 pools and jaccuzi's overlooking the sea. Nicer than what we expected.
Both breakfast and afternoon/evening buffet are super delicious. There is plenty of choice so there is something for everyone. Afternoon/evening also some things are changed all the time so you keep having enough variety.
The quality/taste of the food is higher than at other hotels.
The 2 restaurants (Luzzu and Cheeky Monkey) where we are allowed to eat as guests of the hotel are a nice change.
There is also a possibility to eat once at restaurant Minoa (the hotel's restaurant on the top floor). This was open since early this week and we took advantage of it. The menu is limited but of high quality. The restaurant is beautiful and the open kitchen is definitely a plus.
Our room was good. We unfortunately did not get a renovated room but the room had everything it should have.
Besides the renovated aspect and the location, the biggest quality of this hotel is the staff. It is nice as a guest to meet all these friendly people. We can see that these people enjoy doing their jobs. They are super friendly!
The room was always cleaned very clean, the people at the bars/towels are extremely friendly as are the people at the front desk. It is not a forced friendliness. You notice that the people who work here are proud of what they do and enjoy making the guests feel comfortable.
One small flaw in the hotel is the elevators. We often had to wait a long time before we could take an elevator. Taking into account that the hotel is not completely full yet, this can cause some problems.
Congratulations on your renovated hotel! Keep up the good work. We would love to come back when the hotel is completely finished!

Stunning hotel is a must stay if in Malta,was more than I expected, enjoyed everything minute spend there, beautiful hotel, start as you walk in door, very polite staff and very helpful, rooms are spacious great sea views, beautiful meals, brilliant selection for all foods as we were half board brilliant selection, few pools in hotel beautiful and clean. They ave everything under one roof, only thing that I can give negative for is no information about meal times or anything that is in the hotel , but for everything else got to be 10/10 for me.
