We were well taken care of. The host arranged for us to be picked up at the airport and dropped off. The accommodations were outstanding, we couldn’t have asked for better accommodations. The amenities were that were offered were outstanding! There was a game room, media room, weight room and also a card room to name a few; there was an indoor pool, hot tube and even a sauna. There was also a table tennis, outdoor pool, a grilling area, with seating for over 20 people We had plenty of room for our entire family. The host gave us names of local restaurants and places to go and see. We were all in total awe of such a beautiful place. We thank you for providing us with h such a spectacular place!

A fabulous house with all the amenities in which a family of disparate ages could find something exciting and captivating, whether it’s swimming, watching films, enjoying meals around the big table, playing games or just sun bathing in privacy. It was sometimes difficult to get them to leave the property for outside excursions. Amanda of Lush Properties was an excellent host for the check in and with occasional questions. Location was quiet and with good access to an excellent beach and nearby amenities and restaurants. We could not have been happier and wholeheartedly recommend the property for large family holidays.

Amazing stay. We had the time of our life. The house is amazing, communication was easy, concierge service with Matthew and the Njoy team made it easy even more special. Great meals with the chef Sean and his team. We also had a boat trip arranged by the Njoy team. Everything was perfect. Perfect birthday celebration with friends and family.

Just wow..what a villa!

Our first impressions were just Wow!We all enjoyed every part of the villa. We found it extremely spacious and plenty of areas for everyone to chill out. The lift was invaluable. Prior to arrival we arranged an online shopping order from Welbells which Amanda unpacked for us, this was highly appreciated. Lidl is 10 min drive and eurospar is 10 min walk. Plus a little shop bon bons is 2 mins walk away. We walked to masaskala and st thomas bay for dinner/drinks/ice cream. We ate in local restaurants- San Tomaso, Tal Familia and Zion. To sum up the villa:Bedrooms- all have individual air con units. 5 bedrooms have ensuite.Kitchen/lounge area - large area with enough crockery , cups, glasses etc. Useful things like bin bags , kitchen roll, spices, oil were available.Basement- indoor pool was refreshing, also fairly deep. Hot tub was fun to use. Everyone enjoyed the games room to play darts, pool and air hockey. We watched films in the cinema room and played poker in the card room. The gym was useful. Perhaps a running machine and air con would be recommended. Roof top pool was amazing, the sunrises were spectacular and the views just stunning. We used the outdoor bbq which was brillaint. We all enjoyed swimming and snorkeling in the local bays, swimming shoes are recommended. We visited Valetta, Marsaxlokk and St peters pool using the Bolt app which is very easy. Amanda arranged airport minibus transfer which was seamless and good value.Our stay was super- thank you!

Faultless stay in an incredible property

Our group of ten adults couldn't fault our stay here. The villa is one of the most incredible places any of us had ever stayed, equipped with more than enough entertainment on top of magnificent views and a great location. The facilities and cleanliness were second to none. Brenda and Amanda were very helpful throughout the booking and stay, helping with recommendations and support as we needed it. We will never forget our time in Marsaskala!

Perfection!!!

The villa was exactly as advertised, with photos on the website truly reflected reality. It was fully equipped with everything we needed and featured spacious, stunning common areas perfect for gathering. The view was absolutely breathtaking! The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to the beach and conveniently close to a supermarket. Communication with the hosts was easy and friendly. A fantastic stay overall!"

Outstanding property - clean and good. ( Needs some very minor maintenance - dishwasher and other small things.One addition that we would have loved was a good coffee maker. The one there is for capsules that we could not find in the area stores and there was no filter coffeemaker.) We had a wonderful time and thank God for such a great place.

So much to do or perfect relaxation

The property was perfect for a big family get together. Even in late October/early November the rooftop pool was usable and the indoor pool was great for warming up afterwards! Parents loved the generous provision of sun loungers and quieter balcony seating areas the children loved the cinema and games rooms ( when they weren’t swimming) The open plan living area with enough seating and dining places for everyone meant our catered lunch was a big success. Amanda had recommended Manouche for a celebration cake and they were excellent as was our chef Sean from Njoy Malta, another of her recommendations. The poker room also got some grown-up use. Sant Tomas beach and Marsascala harbour were both within walking distance. My 70th birthday celebration couldn’t have been better!

Superb villa

This was everything we were looking for and even after a full week we didn't feel that we had used all of the facilities as there was so much to do. The roof top infinity pool was wonderful. Indoor pool, hot tub and sauna a real luxury! As a group of 5 families with 10 teenage children we had loads of space! Thank you Amanda for all of your help and responsiveness.
