Neville Galea purchased this apartment in 2009
Why Neville Galea chose Ix-Xemxija
This property is in a quiet area of St Pauls Bay. The more tourist areas of Bugibba and Qawra are 15 minutes on foot.
Parking is much easier in this area and so ideal for those renting a car.
The bus stop is just in front of the apartment block and reaching the North and South of Malta is easy.
The view from the balcony and front room of this apartment is enchanting. Guests fall in love with the view and area and many return. The view at night of most seafront properties is pitch dark sea. This apartment enjoys the reflections in the sea of the lights of opposite Xemxija coast. Thus we named it Harbour Lights!
This property also enjoys a small swimming area just 150 m away which is ideal for a quick swim after a day sightseeing or for a morning reviving swim!
What makes this apartment unique
We are full time on our properties. We also have employees who help us with the managing of the apartments. Thus you can rely on a 24/7 assistance and professional accommodation.

Good stay on a really lovely island
Good comfortable accommodation with wonderful views. Everything we needed was at hand and transport was literally on our doorstep. We love Malta and will certainly return.
Only 2 negatives - firstly the noise from the road is huge which disturbs the tranquil setting. secondly you need anti mosquito sprays - its the time of year really but the mosquitoes were awful day and night.
Only 1 further comment - could the owners write down how to use the TV etc as we forgot the instructions
Primeira vez que nos decepcionamos com um aluguel da homeaway
Eu poderia listar varias coisas que nos deixaram bastante frustados, mas apenas gostaria de dizer pra não repetirem o meu erro de deixar para a ultima hora.
Agendem com antecedência que poderão encontrar apartamentos muito melhores nessa mesma faixa de preço.
Comfortable apartment with great view
We spent 5 days in the apartment, with my elderly parents. We chose this apartment because of the lift, the bedroom layout, and of course the wonderful view. Steph met us on arrival and quickly showed us round. The apartment was very clean and, after opening all the cupboards, we found sufficient towels and blankets. I really don't think that more than 5 people could stay comfortably in the apartment. it was quite windy during our stay and warmer blankets/quilts would have been welcome, as would a bath mat in the bathroom because the floor is slippery when wet. The sliding window on the balcony didn't close properly so there was a constant draft which was a nuisance and the fact that the apartment was not securely locked was annoying. There was also a problem with the water draining from the shower tray which no doubt could be fixed with a plunger. There are no shops nearby, but fortunately we had a car so that wasn't a big problem for us. It would have been a nice touch to provide some basic groceries i.e. bread, jam, coffee, tea, sugar, milk. I would also suggest that it is time to renew the bed linen which is rather tired.
Good view comfortable apartment in quiet location
Enjoyed our holiday and will remember the view from the apartment forever. No shop, cashpoint, restaurant or any other facilities within walking distance of the apartment and given that we are all seniors it was necessary to take a 15 minute bus ride to Bugibba for these amenities. We did not find that there were “all kinds of shops, and entertainment (bars/restaurants, nightcubs, casino, watersports) 900m away from the apartment” as described in the property details but on a positive note, as the bus stop was directly outside the apartment, this didn’t present a problem or significantly detract from our holiday experience. The 21 euro weekly bus pass is excellent value and a ‘must have’ on arrival. The living area and the two bedrooms were clean, spacious and adequately met our requirements but the bathroom was far too small and poorly appointed and the water only trickled from the shower head. As the apartment supposedly slept seven persons it is difficult to envisage how they would have managed with such inadequate bathroom facilities. The lighting in the bathroom was poor making it difficult to shave and the dark brown towels weren’t nice and there were only sufficient of them for us to replace them once during our stay.
Many of your contributors on trip adviser comment on how helpful Neville, Ruth and their assistants were during their stay but within an hour of arriving at the apartment and deciding which tours to join we were very much left to our own devices and never heard from or had sight of Steph thereafter apart from a note she left the day after our arrival correcting the pick-up location of the night cruise we had booked. On reflection, we were a little disappointed that she only vaguely indicated the location of amenities and the pick-up point for the cruise as “across the street” when in fact it was a bus ride to the other side of St Paul’s Bay and that the pick-up was actually at the Porta-del-Sol hotel. Also, when we enquired about where to get a weekly pass for the Malta Bus we were advised to go to Valetta when in fact passes were available from local businesses. Again this wasn’t a major problem for us but it might not be so for all guests and although these points are only minor and may be seen as overly pedantic getting the little things right can make all the difference to a guest’s perception.
The pick –up and drop-off at the airport as arranged by Neville made our transfer easy and stress free and at 25 euro good value
“Замечательное место, превосходный отдых!!!”
Мы приехали с супругой на Мальту на 20 дней к друзьям и встретить День рождение. Арендовав эту квартиру на 5 этаже мы получили все, что хотели получить от жилья на Мальте, лифт, три балкона с прекрасным видом на море и город Бужиббу, полностью укомплектованная кухня, стиральная машина и интернет и современный ТВ. Замечательное расположение в 2 минутах ходьбы до центра, рестораны и магазины в 100 метрах от дома. Возможно тем кто поедет в июне-сентябре стоит обратить внимание на отсутствие кондиционеров есть только напольные вентиляторы, хотя возможно их установят т.к. квартира практически новая и они там предусмотрены, но пока их нет да и в апреле они не нужны. Квартиру мы арендовали через агенство, Руф представитель агенства была очень внимательна к нашим пожеланиям и просьбам чем заслужила нашу глубокую благодарность.
Cozy and luxurious
Beautiful apartment with stunning sea views overlooking a small harbour. We had gorgeous weather in the middle of January! so we were often basking in the afternoon sun on the balcony enjoying a glass of wine. The apartment was well equipped, very clean up to our standards and right next to a bus stop which gives you access to the whole island - we bought a bus card for 21eur which gives you unlimited travel for 7 days which was perfect and easy for us to see everything. I hope we return next year. We will be in touch with Neville and Ruth who were great hosts! Thanks a lot for making our holiday what is was - relaxing and stress free!
Map
The apartment is located in the old fishing village of St Paul's Bay, and is in front of the old fishing harbour still full of colourful traditional Luzzu boats. Some parts of the village have developed touristic areas but the village kept its old charm. The apartment is in a residential area. In the village centre, 900m away from the apartment one can find all kinds of shops, and entertainment (bars/restaurants, nightcubs, casino, watersports). Golden sandy beaches are just 1 bus away. Ferries that go to Gozo and Comino (or one day cruise) depart from nearby. The bus stop is in front of the apartment and so is a rocky beach. The location of the apartment and penthouse is ideal of honeymooners, families with children, retired couples or group of friends. There is plenty of on street parking(free). Renting a car is not necessary. Most historic sites are 1 bus away. There are also long promenades for long walks and a picturesque countryside to discover. Activities are infinite.
Other Activities: name it we have it! Except snow!
Golf: The The Royal Malta Golf Club, is situated in Marsa. The area is not touristic and there are no accommodation facilities within walking distance. Thus most golfers choose our seafront apartments in the heart of the best tourisitic areas.
Ski: Just water skiing in Malta!!!!
