Salini Resort

Gurdial Flora

We stayed at Salini Resort in Malta as a group of 12 for five nights, including five children, and I can honestly say this was one of the best hotel experiences we have had anywhere in Europe. From the moment we arrived, every single member of staff made us feel welcome, cared for, and valued. However, what truly made this stay exceptional was the outstanding restaurant team, who went far beyond what we could ever have expected. Our family follows a strict vegetarian diet with no eggs or fish, and from the very first meal the restaurant staff took this incredibly seriously. Once they understood our requirements, they personally took responsibility for making sure we were always looked after. We never once felt like an inconvenience, instead we felt genuinely cared for and prioritised. With five children in our group, this gave us enormous peace of mind and allowed us to relax and truly enjoy our holiday. A very special thank you goes to Krishna, the dinner supervisor, and Sobi, our wonderful server. Both of them were always smiling, attentive, and would regularly come to check if everything was okay. They made us feel like family rather than guests, and their kindness and professionalism made every meal a pleasure. We also want to acknowledge the pastry chef, who went out of their way to prepare special vegetarian desserts just for us, carefully ensuring they contained no eggs. This thoughtful touch meant so much, especially for the children, who felt included and excited at every meal. And finally, a huge thank you to the Head Chef, who took extra care to prepare beautiful, delicious meals for us and went the extra mile to ensure we were comfortable and happy. The food was not just suitable for our diet, it was outstanding. We have travelled extensively across Europe, but this was truly one of the nicest and most memorable hotel experiences we have ever had, and that is entirely thanks to the incredible restaurant and hospitality staff at Salini Resort. We left feeling grateful, relaxed, and already planning our return. Highly, highly recommended.

Rooms can get cold but heating can be provided by reception, bus connections are so good and the bus stops and just outside. Amazing staff, lovely breakfast. The view is incredible.

Upon check-in, I was informed that advance booking was required to use the spa facilities and that I could only reserve a one-hour slot, subject to availability. Since the spa was the main reason I chose this hotel, I immediately went there to check for availability. To my surprise, the spa staff told me that no booking was required at all. I went back to reception to inform them about this inconsistency and suggested they improve their internal communication to avoid misleading guests. When I entered my room, I was shocked by its condition. It was dirty, there were insects and spider webs, and the furniture looked old and very worn out. For a moment, I honestly thought the room was decorated that way for Halloween. I went to reception to report the issue and waited around 15 minutes before anyone attended to me. A staff member who introduced himself as Philippe, the general manager, finally arrived. Unfortunately, he was quite defensive, kept interrupting me, and explained that such a state was “normal” since the hotel had been open for years. He eventually apologized and promised to send housekeeping immediately. I left for the spa to give them time, but when I returned, the room was exactly the same—only sprayed with air freshener. I took photos of the room and showed them to the general manager, who simply said he could not “accept that as a general manager” and offered me a hotel voucher instead. Offering a voucher does not fix a serious cleanliness issue, nor does it compensate for the experience I had. As a long-time guest, I expected far better service and professionalism. Unfortunately, this experience has completely changed my opinion, and I will not be returning to this hotel.

Excellent value for money and good service overall. The hotel enjoys excellent views, the rooms are spacious and clean, and the breakfast is varied and very good. The building in general needs some tlc, but that didn't really affect our stay. We enjoyed our time here and would not mind returning.

An exceptional resort Hotel overlooking Salina Bay, with great transport connections (bus) to the rest of Malta. Can walk to St Paul's Bay in about 40-50 mins via the Salina Nature Reserve and Kennedy Park. The rooms are spacious, with balconies, en suite bathrooms and tea / coffee making tray. Guests have use of three pools (2 outdoor); Children may use one of the outdoor pools at any time, but the indoor Spa Pool must be booked in advance (no extra charge for the pool). There are 3 on site restaurants. The buffet breakfast offers a wife choice. The common areas are very well appointed, the staff attentive and friendly. This was an exceptionally good find and great value for a 4 night stay with breakfast included. We came for the October half term. Temperatures on Malta around 25 degrees. Comfortably warm. We will look forward to returning!
