Historic 17th-century apartment steps from Manoel Theatre
Heritage Architecture
Carmelita occupies a 17th-century building with original elements, including the famous Maltese gallarija (balcony). The apartment features high ceilings and a loggia that serves as a pleasant sitting area. A narrow spiral staircase inside the apartment leads to a rooftop terrace with city views, accessible only from select units.
Central Valletta Location
Carmelita sits on a quiet street within 5 minutes' walk of Old Bakery Street, the main promenade with shops, cafes, and restaurants. The Sliema ferry departs from a terminal just around the corner, and the bus station is a 10-minute walk away. Malta International Airport is 7 km from the apartment.
Rooftop Terrace Experience
A private rooftop terrace, reached via an internal spiral staircase, provides an outdoor space in the city center. This terrace is available in specific apartments, and guests should confirm access when booking. Steep steps lead to the terrace, which is a roof-level space rather than a traditional balcony.
Activities and Services
The property offers access to water sports including diving, windsurfing, canoeing, and snorkeling, with equipment available on site. Land-based activities include horse riding, cycling, archery, and billiards. Additional services include massage appointments, car hire, babysitting, dry cleaning, and grocery deliveries.
