A lovely characterful property in a quiet, yet incredibly convenient location. Our suite in the Hideaway was on the top floor with a mezzanine level and outdoor spa pool. The view towards the harbour and of the three cities was amazing. However, for someone less mobile the spiral staircase might be tricky to climb. The hotel was very luxurious and the service first class. We will definitely return as Malta has so much to offer and 3 days wasn’t nearly enough time to experience it all.

Iniala and Malta did not disappoint! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

One of the best vacations! Both Iniala and Malta were not on my radar - suffice it to say…I will be back! Loved everything about it so much, we cancelled our trip to Palermo and stayed two extra days. Service, location, staff, proximity and HISTORY….all five star!
