Attention to detail, both Narvik and Agnes looked after us n a quite personal way, treating you like family. Our flight was late, we got in at midnight, we were met at the airport and taken straight to our accommodation. Amazing. Agnes did a wonderful breakfast in the morning, again very personal with that welcoming and personal touch. Could not ask for more. A pleasure to stay there

Brilliant stay - Great hosts

I was picked up from the airport by Marvik and introduced well to the apartment and Malta. The apartment looks great and I was fully satisfied with my room. The breakfast included everything that’s needed for a good start into the day and the hosts gave me a lot of recommendations for Malta. I can only recommend staying there. Was absolutely perfect.
