Location
About the surrounding area of Villa EllulVilla Ellul is located in the middle of the Santa Maria Valley in Mellieha, the northernmost town in Malta, perfectly positioned in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea. The villa is a short thirty-five-minute drive from Malta's international airport and within easy driving distance of Malta's best sights and attractions. The island of Malta is steeped in history, dating back as far as five thousand and five hundred and fifty years ago, home to three UNESCO World Heritage Sites, seven megalithic temples, and neolithic architecture, and a few windmills too. The old traditional village of Mellieha is but a short walk away and will give you a taste of local Maltese life, with welcoming cafés, bars, and restaurants, shops and stores. Mellieha is blessed with Malta's longest beach, the beautiful Ghadira Bay, with its white sands and calm sea. If you like walking, the area has many hiking trails, trek to the nearby Ghajn Znuber Observation Tower, or the Il-Majjistral Nature & History Park and spot the herons and egrets, or to il-Mizieb and follow the rugged coast of the Marfa Ridge. Other notable landmarks include an air raid shelter, St Agatha's Red Tower, Coral Lagoon, Our Lady of the Grotto, numerous old churches, and many more beautiful beaches, especially Paradise, Riviera and Anchor Bays.
For those wanting to travel further afield; Take the thirty-minute ferry crossing from Mellieha to the island of Gozo, known as the pearl of the Med. Here you can relax on beautiful sandy beaches, or if you are feeling more active, visit the UNESCO Ggantija neolithic temples, older than the pyramids and Stonehenge. Have a day out with a drive to Rabat Mdina and see the Roman ruins, visit the San Antoni Palace and Gardens, explore St Paul's cathedral and catacombs, or stroll around the thirteenth century Palazzo Falzon and Santa Sofia. All aboard the Marsalforn, a trackless train, where you can enjoy views of the stunning Maltese coastline. No visit to Malta is complete without a visit to the capital Valetta, a forty-minute drive from the villa. Here you will find a walled city founded by the Knights of St John, dating from the 1500's, full of baroque churches and cathedrals, the beautiful Upper Barrakka Gardens, where a cannon is fired every day at noon, and an old town with winding streets full of luxurious shops, cafes, bars and restaurants where you can sample the best of the local Maltese cuisine. Go further south to see the famous Wardija Towers, thirteen fortifications guarding the coast; tilt at windmills, including the still working Tax-Xarolla; and swim, snorkel or rock climb the walls of the renowned Blue Grotto, a collection of sea caverns in the town of Zurrieq. Malta is famous for its many film sets; release your inner Jon Snow with a visit to the Game of Thrones location, and your holiday is complete!

Amazing. We stayed a week
I could honestly rave about this property all day long. It was that amazing! Having the private pool to ourselves was such a luxury. There is sofas too and they're really comfy! The first day there Janice and her team were so accommodating, she had her maintenance man (who was lovely by the way) bring us mosquito spray and other needed extras. Which was something the host didn't have to provide, yet she did. This is one of the most kindest hosts I've had so far and the most accommodating. I say to you this property is absolutely amazing and you will be really missing out to not book this place! Yes the shower head above drips a little, its a nice big shower head that you will be wanting to use rather than the smaller one, as its relaxing especially after a hot day in the sun (Popeye village all day swimming is a must). Thanks again Janice! can't wait to come back!!

We had an excellent week in Malta with family of 4. The accommodation was clean, functional, equipped and in a good location. Pool was always clean and hot. It was very pleasant when you returned from a day's visit.
Janice is very responsive. I would this property.
