Welcome to Roomz in Malta

Roomz in Malta is your go-to destination for a relaxing and memorable stay in the beautiful coastal area of Marsascala in Malta. With a variety of self catering accommodation types to choose from, we ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for every guest.

Malta  is a small Island archipelado  which includes Gozo &  tiny Comino with its famed crystal clear Blue Lagoon  and is midway between Southern Europe and North Africa. In fact it was originally part of Europe and linked to Africa by a land bridge. It has a long history with various temples even  predating the Great Pyramids, the Hypogeum est 4000BC, Ggantija temples est 3600 BC Hagar Qim est 3400BC etc.  The Knights of St John created our fortifications & coastal towers. The Phoenicians, the Normans, The Arabs, the French &  the British  all left a mark on our culture, customs, & food.  Our sea is  azure blue and  we enjoy great weather for 10 months of the year. 

Good to know

We are 15 mins from Airport by taxi  or 45 mins by Airport bus,  in a quiet residential area yet only 5 mins walk to promenade for walking / jogging, or swimming off the rocks, 10 mins walk to St Thomas Bay  sandy beach  & several good restaurants, 1 min  walk to bus stops to Valletta, Cottonera, Marsaxlokk etc  & 1 min walk to local food stores. Marsaskala is away from the noise & bustle of Central areas &  mature Adults who prefer to be  out & about and away from hordes of noisy partying young teen tourists in central areas  will find a quieter environment in our locality. We also have some great restaurants to suit all budgets.

Some lovely walks towards St Peter's pool / Marsaxlokk / Delimara can be had to the South East, and to the North  West  its an easy walk towards Smart city, Xghajra, & the historical three cities.  A day trip or a weekend break to nearby Sicily is not expensive starting from €50 return by a 90 minute catamaran ferry  from Valletta Waterfront to the ports of Pozzallo or Marina Di Ragusa. One can also fly to Catania in Sicily in 45 mins or Cagliari in Sardinia in just over 65 mins adding a bonus to one's visit.
