130, One of a Kind - A luxury Eclectic Home

Entire home in Tarxien, Malta

6 guests · 3 bedrooms · 4 beds · 2.5 bathrooms
Interior design enthusiasts will love this stunning traditional Maltese home which has been fully modernized with attention to detail, style, and character. This beautiful three double-bedroom property is in a lovely family neighborhood in the oldest part of the village – just a quick taxi or bus drive to Malta’s capital city Valletta as well as the airport. We know that this holiday home isn’t for everyone, and we’re happy about that. We’re looking for travelers (families, couples, or solo trav
The space
This holiday home is in a typical Maltese village, so if you’re visiting Malta for the nightlife or the entertainment scene, then really, this isn’t the property for you. If, on the other hand, you’re curious about our local lifestyle, find our history, culture, and traditions intriguing, and would like to spend a few days "living like a local," then you’re sure to fall in love with 130. The house is a mix of contemporary design and a selection of carefully curated vintage mid-century furniture pieces. In each room of the house, you will find at least one particular original vintage piece, be it an armchair, a wardrobe, a light fitting, or even a vintage Maltese typewriter! We believe that this house truly offers an alternative to the usual mainstream holiday accommodation.

The ground floor boasts an open plan layout that includes a pretty cozy TV/lounge area upon entrance, a space perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the islands. A second open-plan living room and dining area that comfortably accommodates all guests is next, together with a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen that has everything you need to cook up a storm. The large panel of windows provides ample natural light and grants access to a 30 sq meter outdoor space which is equipped with an outdoor dining area, lounge seating area, and a hammock positioned under two luscious towering trees.

Upon going up the restored original one-hundred-year-old stone spiral staircase, one finds the first two bedrooms, each with its own distinct character and both set on traditional Maltese limestone “cangaturi” flooring, which is also over 100 years old. The master bedroom, with its own ensuite, on the right side of the hall features a very comfortable bespoke bed complete with a memory foam mattress, a vanity, and a large contemporary Italian-style bathroom. Complementing the master bedroom is a private terrace overlooking the garden.

The second bedroom has two single beds a workstation, a beautifully crafted baby cot, and a completely open traditional Maltese Balcony (Gallarija). Complementing this second bedroom is an original vintage 1950’s mid-century wardrobe in American Walnut. Each bedroom offers ample closet space for your belongings. Upon climbing a contemporary steel/wood/glass staircase, one finds the third double bedroom with its own ensuite and private terrace.

Very nice apartment, but the beds on the second floor (where ch separate beds) should be replaced as it is very very bad and creaky. Other rooms have good beds.

Plenty of room, lovely decoration and good communication from host. Great for when family/friends are visiting such as in my case. Bit of road noise but such should be expected anywhere in Malta. I will book again when needed! Please consider travelling sustainably. Malta is a lovely holiday destination. This house is located in Tarxien, generally a non-touristic residential area. As a tourist, you might consider staying in one of Malta’s more touristic places, e.g. Sliema, instead. This way, locals are spared rent hikes and other forms of nuisance.

There was no hot water on arrival. Nor instructions that we needed to turn on the water heater ourselves. Nor instructions about how to turn on the water heater. When we needed the hot water, we first had to enquire about it, and no full answer was given for how to turn on the water heater for 24 hours. This was very unsatisfactory, since you would expect something this simple to be possible to deal with swiftly. Or leave instructions for how to do it. Or just make sure there is hot water ready when your guests arrive. While it is a very nice, clean and modern property, the lack of hot water and the poor service and assistance to settle it really soured the experience. It was just poor
