    A bit more variety in breakfasts would be good…

    We loved this top floor apartment with super view over the harbour from the terrace. It had everything we needed for our six night stay- comfortable bed, spotlessly clean, some simple kitchen facilities (small fridge, sink and microwave) and a lovely outside space. Mariella was really welcoming, friendly and helpful.

    Great location overlooking the boats in the bay close to the market and restaurants. Lovely comfortable room with good facilities. There was a good selection of food for breakfast and hot food was easy to request. The host Mariella was great, really helpful with sightseeing and travel information.

    Bit of a sewer type smell from the bathroom - while this can be an issue with older renovated buildings it was difficult to ignore. Breakfast was adequate - I didn’t avail myself of the hot item option.

    Great location - I booked a room overlooking the harbor with a (mini) balcony. Clean & neat. Good value for money but not quite up to my usual expectations for boutique properties.

    You have to take into account the church bells or you have to sleep with the balcony door closed 😊 If you stay overnight for several days, the same breakfast can get boring.

    Very good location and the room was clean and cozy. Very friendly service and helpful instructions. Big market on Sundays right next to the hotel. A very nice and quiet fishing village.

    English breakfast, heated in the microwave. The nearest beach is very dirty, there is a lot of garbage, although the sea is clean.During the week we lived in the hotel, the bedding was never changed, even the one that was obviously dirty.A small village in which it is good to stay for a few days. Being there for a week is boring and not interesting

    The owner of the hotel is very pleasant and caring, ready to help and explain everything. Beautiful view from the terrace, 2 minutes from the beach

    A perfect location with Fabulous Hosts

    The Shipwrights is hosted by Roland and Mariella who were both fabulous hosts and being local, very helpful and knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble. The room was perfect for our needs including a kettle (tea and coffee making facilities), all power points were UK so no need for adaptors. The room had a hair dryer, an iron and ironing board, a small key safe and ample wardrobe space. The shower was great and very hot. The breakfast was mainly continental, but you could order hot dog sausages, boiled eggs and bacon if required, toast, various jams, a selection of ham and cheese and yogurt, great coffee and juice. More than enough to start the day. The Shipwrights is a boutique Hotel with coded rooms and end entrance (although full keys are provided). The location is perfect and just far enough away from the main area to allow a great peaceful night’s sleep. Marsaxlokk is the perfect location to travel the Island and a beautiful working fishing village with numerous restaurants and cafes.

    Great location. Hosts were really helpful and gave us great recommendations for dinner. 2 small bottles of wine in the room, which was a really nice touch. We had the quadruple room on the top floor, so we had a large balcony overlooking the bay.

    The bed from the living room is a Little bit to small for 2 adults (for 2 kids or 1 adult is perfect).

    Everything was perfect. The rooms were clean and cozy. The balcony was really big,with an amazing view over the Harbour. The accomodation is placed really close to the restaurants, to the beach and the bus station. The breakfast was more than enough with everything you want. Thank You for your hospitality, Marilena.
