Amazing house!
We loved our stay at Casa San Rocco. It’s an amazing property and super comfortable. We kept finding new terraces or corners of the garden to enjoy. It’s a stay of a lifetime. Can’t wait to come back when it’s warmer to use the pool!

Magical spot
This property is magical, with its multiple gardens, beautiful pool, and interesting architecture. Our 8 year old was fascinated by it all! The location was convenient, with a garage for our rental car and a small grocery store across the street. Anthony was wonderful as well, responding quickly to our questions when we had them. Malta is a fascinating gem full or history and culture, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. We feel fortunate to have experienced it while staying in such a cool house.

Lovely historic Malta
Casa San Rocco was the perfect home for our party of 10 adults aged 24-70. We were able to find a quite place to read, a big gathering spot for dinner and a pool to exercise. Matthew, our chef and his assistant Mary Ann were excellent.

Beautiful oasis
The property was very impressive with more then enough rooms to accommodate our family of 11 celebrating an 80th birthday celebration. Connie the lovely house keeper welcomed us and was available if needed. I would suggest the property is best suited to adults and teenagers due to some of the steps as young children and hide n seek could take a while at this property. Lots to explore and bus stop and local store close, we used cabs Bolt which were very affordable. Everything worked well, bathrooms are very sufficient but in keeping with this older property. Great Wi-Fi in the office and one of our party needed to work so it was used daily for video meetings. Nice to have a break from internet dependence elsewhere in the property. Fans to keep cool downstairs and air con available in bedrooms. Definitely a place to make memories and our 17/18/20 year olds all want to return.

Casa San Rocco is the loveliest house we've stayed in. It's setting and grounds surpassed our expectations - even given the fantastic pictures on the website. The gardens and pool are especially gorgeous and exceptionally well maintained. We only wished we had booked for 2 weeks!

Breathtaking house
The house and grounds are absolutely stunning, the most beautiful house we’ve stayed in. We were all stunned by the rooms, courtyards and gardens, including the tower. It has all the advantages of being in a small town- a shop opposite and other shops a short walk away, takeaway pizza and bars in the town. But it feels very spacious, secluded and peaceful when you’re in the garden and by the large pool. There are lots of balconies and courtyards and we spent many evenings having dinner/ BBQs at the beautiful outside area. We were lucky enough to be staying at the time of the local festa so had fireworks and entertainments over the week which were fun (and sometimes noisy!) Anthony was very responsive and also recommended Malta Sailing Experiences for a great day out sailing and snorkelling near Camino. We did not need to hire cars as the taxi apps worked very well - it was easy to get to Valletta and to st Julian’s bay. Overall, it was a very memorable holiday

Family celebration
Casa San Rocco is stunningly beautiful. A historic house set in a gorgeous walled garden with several courtyards and with terraces leading from most of the bedrooms. The children loved watching the lizards and feeding the fish and we all enjoyed the beautiful planting in the gardens. The swimming pool was huge and our evening swim, under the stars, was wonderful. There was plenty of space for all of us to be together, eating outside or in the lovely dining room or relaxing in the drawing room, but there are also small quiet spaces for a little individual time. We had a wonderful holiday. Special memories were made here. Thank you to Anthony and Connie for all your help.

Casa San Rocco
This villa was magical, the only time where the place was even better than in the photos. There were many places to be in the shade( the temperature stayed between 27-37 degrees.) The pool was refreshingly cool & a pleasure to swim in. There was a small surcharge for exceeding the daily electricity charge.

Beautiful spacious property
My family age ranges 17-82 had a super two weeks at Casa San Rocco. The property is lovely particularly the outdoor dining, garden and pool areas and the bedrooms all en suite with aircon were a real luxury. Our host was super, Connie the housekeeper delightful and everyone in Malta were friendly. Bus rides to town were easy as were eCabs and having two walkable small stores and two larger supermarkets so close was very convenient. We already miss our breakfasts in the inner courtyard (best wifi spot) and would also recommend the chef who cooked us a delicious birthday meal one evening. Would definitely return.
