These fabulous resorts in Malta, Gozo and Comino are a one-stop-shop for comfort, entertainment and relaxation... you need nothing more for your holiday to truly unwind and recharge!
Here, we picked some of the best resorts in the north of Malta, Gozo and Comino for you. Surrounded by nature, within reach of the Mediterranean Sea and with myriad facilities including a spa and sports facilities, these luxury resorts have all you could hope for during your retreat.
Gozo
Gozo has already earned a reputation for being the island of retreats. The unspoilt nature and slower pace of life of the islanders ensures this place remains a pristine gem in the Mediterranean.
Kempinski Hotel San Lawrenz
The Kempinski Hotel San Lawrenz in Gozo is a luxury, five-star resort set within 30,000 square metres of lush gardens in a picturesque valley of the island of Gozo.
Facilities include two restaurants, two heated indoor pools and three outdoor swimming pools, tennis and squash courts, a fully equipped fitness centre and an award-winning Spa & Ayurveda Centre.
Hotel Ta' Cenc & Spa
The Hotel Ta' Cenc & Spa in Gozo is a five-star eco-tourism resort set in a staggering 1.5m square metres of countryside rich in flora and fauna. The Natura 2000 site includes a bird sanctuary, a rocky beach and a medieval palazzo within the hotel grounds.
The hotel includes family rooms that sleep up to four, suites with private jacuzzis, and detached, stone bungalows. Amenities include three restaurants, a bar, an indoor pool and an outdoor pool, a fully equipped spa, a private beach and a beach club.
Comino
You probably can't get further away from it all than by retreating to the tiny island of Comino. The almost uninhabited island has just four residents, a single hotel and a tiny police station.
Comino Hotel
The Comino Hotel is a seasonal four-star hotel that is open only during the summer months. It is located in San Niklaw Bay, away from the hordes of tourists that visit the Blue Lagoon daily; you'll be able to enjoy that in its pristine state before or after the ferry schedules. The hotel is indeed secluded but you'll be far from bored.
Apart from the island's unspoilt wilderness, its points of interest and its delightful beaches, the hotel offers two private sandy beaches, two large outdoor swimming pools, scuba diving, water sports, tennis, mountain biking and other activities. The hotel offers hotel rooms and private bungalows, and includes several bars and restaurants and a mini-market.
Malta
Malta may have the reputation of being the busier, cosmopolitan island of the lot, but the north retains an abundance of natural environments to relish.
db Seabank Resort & Spa, Mellieha
The four-star db Seabank Resort & Spa is an all-inclusive hotel that means you don't even need to deal with money. The hotel is located 30 meters from Malta’s largest beach, almost completely secluded yet within easy reach of several places of interest around Mellieha.
