Why We Love This Stay
🏨 The hotel itself Ta’ Tereza in Manwel Dimech is a contemporary 4-star guesthouse sitting in a quiet pedestrian lane in the heart of Sliema. Housed behind an original Maltese facade dating back around eighty years, it has been modernised throughout while keeping the character of its surroundings. It scores 8.8 out of 10 on Booking.com, with guests consistently praising the staff, the cleanliness, and the location.
🌊 The rooftop pool For the price point, the rooftop terrace and pool at this property are a genuine highlight. Sunloungers, open sky, views across Sliema, and a cool dip on a hot July afternoon. It is a proper outdoor space, not an afterthought.
🚢 The ferry to Valletta on your doorstep One of the best things about staying in Sliema is the ferry connection straight into Valletta. The crossing takes about ten minutes and drops you right at the waterfront of Malta’s UNESCO-listed capital. From Ta’ Tereza, the ferry point is a short walk along the promenade.
🍽️ Food and drink on your doorstep Sliema has a serious food scene for a relatively compact town. Restaurants, bars, cafes, and gelato stops line the waterfront and the surrounding streets. The hotel’s own restaurant serves breakfast daily and dinner in the evening. Independent dining options are plentiful within a five-minute walk.
☀️ July and August in Malta Peak summer in Malta means wall-to-wall sunshine, warm sea temperatures perfect for swimming, and long evening light. Average temperatures sit in the low 30s. It is a proper sun holiday, and Malta delivers on that front without the chaos of a larger resort destination.
🏖️ Beaches and islands within easy reach Balluta Bay is a 12-minute walk. From Sliema you can also access Gozo and Comino, including the famous Blue Lagoon, by boat. The island is compact and easy to navigate by bus, making it genuinely easy to explore beyond your base.

Things To Do
Grand Harbour and Sliema Creek Scenic Cruise
A 90-minute cruise from Sliema Ferries taking in the Grand Harbour, Marsamxett Harbour, the fortified cities of Vittoriosa, Cospicua and Senglea, historic bastions, and the working dockyards. It is one of the best ways to understand Malta’s layered history and jaw-dropping harbour geography, and it departs right from your doorstep. Genuinely worth doing early in the trip to get your bearings from the water.
Gozo, Comino and Blue Lagoon Day Cruise
A full-day boat cruise departing Sliema that takes in both of Malta’s sister islands in one go. Gozo for coastline and scenery, then Comino and 90 minutes at the Blue Lagoon, one of the most photographed stretches of water in the Mediterranean. The boat has a sundeck, bar, swimming ladders, and a waterslide. This is the quintessential Malta summer day out and it books up fast in July and August.
Mdina and Malta Highlights Full Day Tour
Malta packs an extraordinary amount of history into a very small island, and this full-day guided tour covers the highlights properly. Mdina, the silent ancient capital; the Hagar Qim megalithic temples (older than Stonehenge); and the Blue Grotto coastal viewpoint. Transport and a guide are included, so there is no stress around buses or navigation. A great option for a day away from the coast mid-trip.
All three experiences offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before. Book early and secure your spot risk-free.
