About Malta
History aficionados have long loved this Mediterranean nation, evidence that you don't need palm trees or daiquiris to be one of the world's most tantalizing islands. Malta has been overrun by every major empire in the region, from the Phoenicians to the Byzantines, the British to the 1.5 million tourists who flock to the island's colorful shores every year. Limestone cliffs are dotted with baroque churches, crumbling castle walls and fortresses. The capital, Valletta, squeezes half a millennium of history into half a square mile, with forts and stairways that crest in unparalleled harbour views. With the debut of a new Renzo Piano-designed open-air theater, visitors can now marvel at the contrast of 21st and 16th century architecture. Nearby Gozo offers a reprieve from Valletta's frenetic energy -- it's here that Odysseus is rumored to have spent seven years after the Trojan War. Take one look at this handsome Bronze Age island, set between Sicily and the North African coast, and you won't blame him.
A Smart TV comes with cable channels, and guests can stay connected with free WiFi. The memory foam bed provides a full night's sleep and the bathroom offers hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a kitchen, and a washing machine. Housekeeping is available on request.

Enchanting and beautiful
Il Kiostro is truly wonderful - a mini oasis of calm. There are private spaces and sun-terraces where you can hideaway on your own and also fantastic spaces like the hallway/dining room or kitchen or swimming pool /outside dining area where everyone can get together. It is quiet and the beds are comfy. Close to corner shop, bakery and pizza takeaway.

Amazing Property
What an amazing place to stay and the hosts Daniel and Clinton such nice people. From we first walked through the door we were stunned by the character and decor of the property. There were so many common areas to all be together but also so many beautiful quiet areas to have your own private time. The bedrooms were fantastic and the plants and flowers added so much colour. The photos really don't do it justice. We were all so sad when it was time to leave.

Ferien auf Malta
Wir waren für eine Woche in diesem schönen historischen Gebäude mitten in der Stadt. Es ist liebevoll saniert und schön eingerichtet. Die Höfe und Terrassen sind grün bewachsen und vermitteln ein tolles Klima. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Wonderful
We had a great time at Il kiostrol .
We found the place ,which has so much charm, cachet and character ,exactly like the photos and the description given on the site.
Daniel 's warm welcome ,from the very minute we arrived ,made us feel perfectly at home and comfortable and there were Maltese snacks as well as a bottle of Maltese wine in store for us in the fridge.
Daniel's attention to every detail is quite extraordinary ,both inside and outside.
The beautiful balconies and terraces with so many varied plants and flowers were really lovely and enabled the four of us to freely choose the very best place to relax, sunbathe or read according to the time of the day and the temperature.
A great place and wonderful hosts . Thank you
Dominique
