Booked this as a late deal and chose all inclusive option. Hotel itself is at the top of the island, more or less on its own, with another hotel and very close to the ferry terminal for the Island of Gozo. There is nowhere to walk to or anything nearby of interest, so you are pretty much stuck at the... More

We had booked to go to the Seabank in Mellieha, however the travel company called us a week before the holiday and said Health and Safety issues etc and changed us to the Riviera, which they said was COMPARABLE. I wish now that we had gone to the Seabank. Good points : We only booked for a week. Food was... More

We had visited this hotel - not as residents - on a number of occasions and thought it looked ideal for our needs: we were right! The rooms are a decent size, the bathrooms are exactly what you expect abroad and the views are great. Staff are friendly, frequently entertaining and always helpful. Breakfasts are really good with plenty of... More

I was on businees trip with the family and we chose the hotel because it was far from all the noise and tourist in August! The hotel was good, the service excellent and I really recommend it to somebody who wants to rest and visit Gozo. The hotel is pretty far from Valletta and all the touristic attractions, it is...

Disappointed when we first arrived, the hotel needs an urgent refurb. Weather was mixed (first week of April), which didn't help, but as it improved, we warmed to the hotel. It is very remote (best hire a car - though th ebus service is good - recommend a trip to Valetta, and the open top hop-ob hop-off bus stops at... More

I chose this hotel for it's situation near Comino and Gozo. There's nothing special to do over there but I really advise you to take the boat to Comino especially since it stops just in front of the hotel. Comino has marvellous clear water and caves to see. It's a must if you wish to swim in a crystal clear... More

Recently returned from this hotel having booked with ON THE BEACH and flew with Easyjet. Flights, transfers and hotel were all excellent. Hotel is remote which was exactly what we were looking for after a recent death in the family. My wife suffers from severe arthritis and found that once inside all the hotel facilities were accessible. All inclusive food... More

This is very nice hotel, I'd say one of the best if you compare to other Malta hotels. But still - do not expect luxury. Don't go all inclusive I think you will be disappointed. There are no restaurants, bars etc. withing this area, you have to travel approx.20mins. We took a taxi or bus every evenig, which wasn't expensive.... More
