Orange – Apartment 3
An escape to a serene and peacful hamlet but minutes away from entertainment hub
A choice of 3 tranquil villa apartments with all amenities in this exclusive part of Malta. Quiet and peaceful yet only minutes away from the entertainment hub of Paceville and the more popular St. Julians Bay with its many restaurants and great bars. Properties also enjoys the use of a large swimming pool (41 sq m), sunbeds, deckchairs, hammock for a couple, 3 seater hammock swing, rocking bench, large umbrellas, gazebo seating for 8, barbecue area with its own fridge and kitchen facilities, shower and WC facilities by pool area. The dedicated solar heating system for the pool allows use of the pool from April to October. Access to pool area is via wooden bridge over large cascading koy fish pond. A further gazebo with vine tree is adjacent to a smaller water turtle pond. Very romantic setting in this hilltop area with extensive views of Malta, where the tropical garden and the cascading waters from the fish ponds continue to add to the serenity that the whole place seems to create.
Our pets: Our garden, although small, is very mature and extremely well kept, providing a tranquil atmosphere, also helped by the sound of the cascading waters in the background. Our own pets, (cats and dog), other than the koy fish and turtles already mentioned, also have their own separate dens, and are well kept, pampered and cared for.
For those who want more out of their holiday: The pool and garden areas have proven to be a refreshing start or close to any day, particularly if this was a warm or even a blistering one. But Malta has much more to offer than just lazing about in the sun. For this reason we have teamed up with some of the most interesting tour, leisure and event operators on the island, providing day cruises around the Maltese archipelago on a Turkish gullet, an evening’s entertainment extravaganza live show on the 1565 Great Siege of Malta, a visit to the nearby water marine park, an unforgettable once-in-a-lifetime experience swim with the dolphins, or how about exploring some of the most interesting dive sites in the Mediterranean. In collaboration with our friends at Go Dive Malta, we are now also able to offer this experience to practically everyone, from beginners to dive masters. Transport arrangements have also been secured for all these events to pick our guests from our apartments (or very close by).
What we stand for.: We have been called ‘a home away from home’ by some of our past guests, a name which honours us completely, and while we continue to dispense recommendations on what to do and where to go during your stay to help you better discover these culture-packed islands, we will strive to live up to that name and better our product.

What makes this apartment unique
The swimming pool is equipped with a dedicated solar heating system, almost guaranteeing the use of the swimming pool even for the summer shoulder-months, such as best part of April and October.
We are now also pleased to inform all our guests that the new jacuzzi installation is complete and running. The idea behind this was to replace our 4 seater open Jacuzzi with one that actually holds 9 people; this walk-in construction also takes the shape of a cave rather than having to leave the pool to get to the Jacuzzi bringing a whole new meaning to luxury. The pictures were taken during the night to add to the affect of the new lighting fixtures in the harem chill-out seating area. There is also a water rainfall to the entrance of the jacuzzi to add to the tropical ambiance and feel of this vibrant place.
In essence, the pool has been installed with a new liner; we have also replaced the lights in the pool with LED lighting, which also gives us the facility of altering the colour from blue, orange, red, green, purple, amber, and also a random selection of colours, making swimming at night a whole new experience altogether.
The inside of the jacuzzi is constantly painted in a soft blue light, which is accentuated by the silver coloured tiling inside as this reflects off it during the night, perfectly complimenting eachother.
The seating above the jacuzzi has been a real surprise as it turned out to be even better than what we had ever imagined it to be. Here we have placed garden furniture blending in perfectly to the setting. The frame to this area is fabricated out of wood with sack covering on top, giving it that harem feeling as you climb up the stairs and lounge in what is already a favourite area of many of our guests.
At the same time, we have also replaced our chlorination system to one that is more green, as this not only eliminates the taste of chlorine but makes the water that much clearer, making it even more enticingly exciting.

Guest Reviews
Apartment Orange
Having just returned from a week staying in Apartment 3 Orange, I only have good things to say about it! Not only was the apartment beautiful, comfortable and set in the most gorgeous gardens but I was made to feel very welcome straight away! Being met with a lovely welcome hamper was definitely a bonus!
The pool is stunning and very private with access to a great bbq and the resident pets are adorable and very calm – especially Toby the dog!! The apartments are kept beautifully and it really did feel like a home away from home.
Despite not having a car, we found the location perfect as there is a bus stop at the bottom of the hill with a regular service that allowed us to sight see all over the Island. Also, a nearby supermarket meant that there was no trouble getting shopping in either with a steady walk back to the apartment.
I would definitely return to this accommodation and 100% recommend it to other holiday makers whether its a relaxing holiday by the pool, sight seeing around the island or nights out in Paceville that you’re after.

Summer 2010 Malta 🙂
I have just returned from a week long stay in the Orange apartment with my friend (in the month of September – we are both 18) The accommodation was absolutely perfect and was exactly as described if not better. On arrival the owner made sure we had the necessities we needed (as we arrived late) and provided traditional Maltese food for us to eat which was lovely! Throughout our stay the apartment was kept clean/very well maintained, and if we ever did need anything, the owner was always willing to help. Everything you could need to cook is provided (oven/gas hobs/microwave) and the outside BBQ is perfect too. The location was also perfect for us since despite the walk to the bus stop (only around 10/15 minutes) we found it was really nice to walk in the sun or on the way back from a day out. The bus stop provides all the transport links you could need with buses to the main cities and to the Valletta terminus where you can then get any bus to anywhere from (the buses are also very cheap – only 47 cents) To anyone thinking of going to Malta, I would definitely recommend almost all the activities we did! We went to Mdina (the old capital) which was absolutely beautiful and went to the Fontanella Tea Gardens which overlooks the coast. Visiting Valletta is a must – the architecture is absolutely stunning and going to St Johns Cathedral is breathtaking…there are also plenty of lovely restaurants/bars for both the day and evening – one that I would highly recommend is the jazz bar called Malata Bar and Restaurant – It was some of the nicest food I have ever had and we managed to go on a night with live jazz provided – Make sure you check out which nights this is on and make sure you book as it gets very busy. We also booked on to a boat cruise with Captain Morgan cruises leaving from Silema which took us around Gozo and Comino (including the beautiful blue lagoon) and included a lovely buffet lunch and wine, and provided many opportunities to swim in the sea. We both also went jet skiing at Silemma in one of the lidos on the coast which if you enjoy adrenaline pumping activities I would definitely recommend – the coast is perfect for it and you are also able to do it with an instructor if you want that extra safety (for a slight extra charge but it is worth it!) Overall, my stay on Malta is the best holiday I have ever had and would recommend this accommodation to anyone thinking of visiting – it was absolutely perfect and only added to an amazing week! 🙂
