The room was outdated, but it was comfortable, the pools were well maintained, but the indoor needed some improvements. The breakfast was great each day. The staff were helpful and friendly. Location is nice a quiet
This hotel is easy walking distance to the Gozo ferry terminal. There is a restaurant at the hotel as well as an excellent casual restaurant across the street. We enjoyed the live music in the evening in the lobby bar area. Views from the room to the water were great.
We really enjoyed the hotel as a family. The breakfast opportunity was a bit low just with beans bacon's eggs I agree a lot us from England but when we are in holiday we would like to try something else. The dinner was amazing with a lot of fruit and seafood options. We had for the evening some game place so we enjoyed that aswell. The view was really nice and around the hotel a lots of very good opportunity for a water sport.
Second time in malta, we chose this hotel.fpr the convenience of the ferry to Gozo.
The shop on site has lots of items, no fresh produce and is rather pricey, however it was convenient, the downside to the shop, the contactless machine is unreliable and they do not take cash.so you cannot guarantee a purchase.
Excellent bus service around the island, also used bolt, both reasonably priced.
The pools are lovely, the water is salty and chlorinated, interesting taste.
The il mierra buffet resturant is super,lots of choice. A couple of nights we went to the other resturant, the meal.sizes were huge.
You will see reviews that the hotel.is old, it is decorated, exceptionally clean albeit a little tired in places. I would definitely recommend it
Great view! It was close to go to Gozo island & bus stop was just in front of the hotel! Receptionists were very friendly!!

Beautiful location. Nice poolarea and nice sea with the jetty.
Very good food esepcially the desert table. We ate for six days and still the food was still various.
Beautiful surroundings and really the people who work there made my stay extra nice since everyone else was either with a family or 50-60 yo+ resort needs some updating but the pool is great and the drinks + happy hour ! It’s very chill and quiet so you will definitely relax :)
Overall clean hotel nice pool area overlooking the bay. Breakfast buffet for €10 but no local restaurants you have to catch bus to Mellieha bay. Good bus service.
Negative: A/C in room not effective.
Outstanding location. Amazing views across the bay. Incredible service. First choice hotel in Malta. Discover the Porto restaurant just opposite hotel with great food, cocktails and sun loungers.
Transfer X1 local bus service from airport to hotel.
Malta 4-7 day travel card highly recommended.
Enjoyed our stay in there. The room was big and airy. Good air conditioning and a splendid view. The only negative thing is that the check in is late at 3.00pm compared to other hotels.
A great base, especially for Gozo and Comino, plenty of well thought out swimming pools. Room views good. Food plentiful and good quality.
Minor niggles: the games room lacking maintenance, and needs coins which no one provide. I was unable to find the gym.
Great hotel, quiet location and nice beach opposite but we booked for 2 adults and 2 adult teenagers. The accomodation had 1 room and a bathroom. The hotel chucked a couple of fold up beds either side of the main bed. Not suitable for a family of 4. I had to book another room for the week as reception refused to help. Should not have been sold as an adult family stay.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. There are amazing view from the hotel of the bay and the sea, and lots of facilities on site e.g convienence store/gift shop, spa/salon. However, you are limited in terms of things to do in the local area as it's really far out. Other than going for long walks (the Red Tower is about 40 min walk away), it's advised to take the ferry to Comino or Gozo or else get the bus into Ghadira/ Meliiha/St Paul's Bay. Also the hotel could do with a big upgrade, for example moving sockets to the bedside.
The room was great value for the season. One annoyance was it being described as a ‘Sea View Room’ when my room, 271, is one of the few rooms at the hotel that does not look onto the sea unless you consider stepping out on the balcony and stretching out on the side to see the sea as sea view.
Breakfast includes a variety of hot and cold options. You can’t fault the location; a few minutes from the Gozo ferry and bustling Mellieha with its many restaurants. Staff are at hand at reception 24 hours and the minor issues I experienced were resolved within minutes. I am surprised so few people use the private beach at Porto Lounge.

Friendly staff, nice pools and a sweet swimming spot off the hotel cliffs.
Food was.. not gourmet.
Staff was very friendly and service minded.
Absolutely nothing (except the manuals) worked in the gym. To call it a gym is an offence to gyms.
A bit far away from everything, but nice if you like a bit of peace and quiet.
Would recommend ordering food through wolt and foodora. Even though there was a lot of food in the buffet - the quality, or prep, was a bit lacking.

Very outdated rooms that aren’t in great working order. Dining room is very big and bright. 3 great swimming pools and the resort has access directly to the Mediterranean. Didn’t like being nickel and dimed for everything. No coffee in room but can buy some downstairs, for example. Staff weren’t overly knowledgeable and not super helpful when we had questions. We just figured things out ourselves. Although the hotel is fine and has great potential we would not stay here again.
