The northern town above Mellieħa Bay, Malta’s longest sandy beach, with a village centre on the ridge and views over Comino and Gozo. Popular for villas and apartments with sea views, a relaxed pace and the Gozo ferry close by.
Apartments are the largest part of the Maltese market. Most are in blocks of a few floors with a lift; the better ones have sea or harbour views, a garage space and a terrace. Check whether common parts and the building are finished and who manages them.
