On the northern coast of Malta is the beautiful city of Sliema. It is known as major residential and commercial area, with tons of shopping, dining and cafes to indulge in. It also has many places for tourists to check out, such as the Sliema Front, a promenade that goes along the coastline, made popular by joggers and walkers and by locals, as a local hangout spot in the summer months.

Take a romantic stroll on the boardwalk or indulge in Sliema’s nightlife of open-air restaurants, boutiques, cafes and even piercing and tattoo parlours. What was once a small fishing village has now become of the most popular and affluent neighbourhoods in Malta. Book a stay in a stylish Maltese villa or high rise apartment with one of these top Airbnb rentals and see the best of Malta.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 05, 2024.
