Great staff and facilities. Great choice of food, and basic shop in hotel for essentials. No other shops/restaurants etc nearby.... 3km to nearest, but taxis easy to order on usual apps etc. Construction work ongoing on resort, but apart from seeing from outside would not notice. Great view of the sea.

Review of Ramla Bay Resort – Where Peace, Nature, and Excavators Go Hand in Hand If you're looking for peace and quiet, this is the place for you. It's so quiet that even Google Maps has to take a deep breath. There are hardly any restaurants in the immediate vicinity, but let's be honest – who needs pasta when you can have panoramic views, a tranquil pool, and punctual ferries to Comino and Gozo? Highlight: From here, you can zoom to the neighboring islands in record time – the ships depart daily, as if you were on a private cruise ship. The resort is also a dream for hiking enthusiasts: lush nature, birds chirping, the wind blowing – and with luck, not a single person in sight. Now for the elephant in the room: the current construction site. Yes, it exists. Yes, it's there. But… you can't hear it! At least not from the rooms and indoor areas – it's so quiet there that you can almost hear the grass growing. The hotel's private beach, however, is currently more focused on construction site romance – if you like the sound of jackhammers and the subtle scent of concrete dust, you'll definitely get your money's worth here. Breakfast? Delicious and varied. Pool? Clean, with enough loungers for all sunseekers (even those who prefer to sleep in until dawn to leave their towels). The bar with a balcony invites you to linger – sea view, drink in hand, and the staff will make you feel like a long-lost regular. In conclusion: The construction site won't last forever – but the holiday feeling here certainly will. If you can handle a bit of construction site charm, you'll already have a great time. And as soon as the last excavator has left, this will be a thoroughly recommendable hotel in a prime location. We'll be back – with or without the construction noise!
