Vacation rentals near Blue Grotto

This historic apartment was in a beautiful stone building a short walk from literally everything in Valletta! We were just a few blocks from Republic and Merchants streets, but the apartment was so quiet and lovely to come home to.It was very spacious, with two large bedrooms and three bathrooms. The terrace was warm and sunny for breakfast, but nice and shady afternoon. The views were spectacular. Claus was helpful and answered any questions quickly. We loved our stay here.

We loved our stay here! Everything went very smoothly and the home was amazing! Our daughter was thrilled to stay in a “castle”!

Better than in the photos. Close to various activities and grocery shop A+.

Seven of us stayed at Ta Torri in the first week of May. The photographs on the website accurately convey the historic charm of the villa and tower room, and the beauty of the courtyard and garden. Updates to the kitchen and bathrooms provided all the comforts we needed. The layout of the villa is a bit idiosyncratic, but groups of family or friends should not have any issues. Given the time of year, the pool temperature was a little cool so there were only some brief dips. But it’s a scenic place for lounging. We chose to manage without a car. Walking, buses, and the reasonably-priced Uber allowed us to get to all the places of interest we wanted (Valletta, Mdina, Birgu, Dingli Cliffs, etc). We loved the village and were happy to be in a quiet spot where we appeared to be the only tourists. Greengrocers and the Maypole convenience store were only minutes away. All the people we interacted with were friendly and welcoming. When we waited at the wrong bus stop, locals stopped and offered advice. English plus our few words of Maltese took us wherever we needed to go. We hope to be back.

We really enjoyed our stay in this property. The Unit was well set up. It was obvious that a lot of thought had gone into deciding what was needed to make the unit work well from the perspective of an actual user. (No clutter of knick knacks just to make the place look "homey" like many rentals.) Andy met us at arrival and spent some time getting us acquainted by providing much information and a map. The unit was clean, quiet and comfortable yet on an alleyway just metres from the water and a hundred metres from the action. Thanks Andy.
