“Great experience overall and would stay here again.”
Beautiful spacious building. Large space meant we were not at all cramped. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to go around. Large communal space meant we could gather, eat, drink, chat, play cards etc. Pool was great to have although we could only use it occasionally as we were mostly out visiting attractions on the island. Comfortable beds. Nice place to come back to at the end of the day.

Large villa, spacious open plan kitchen diner. Basic amenities such as bin bags and a selection of tea and coffee sachets. Bottle of water was welcoming after a long day travelling. We used the bolt app for taxi's and were glad we didn't hire a car as there is nowhere really to park, it's residential and a narrow street. It is a shame the issues with the property have not been addressed as it has the potential to be stunning. There is a massive space on the roof, where you can hang your washing out, a table and chairs and a few flowers could make it a lovely place to eat and sunbathe. The size of the property is brilliant, we were a family of 7, and all the kids got there own room which made them happy. Only down side, is you have to go through one bedroom to get to the bathroom. All the other bedrooms had their own bathrooms, but there is no communal bathroom which makes it tricky if you need the loo and everyone has gone to bed.

“Overall good experience, could be improved with some tweeks”
The property is well kept, and the host was very helpful especially in offering help in the multiple issues we faced. Ignoring the issues, our stay in general was a pleasant one with an all-rounding location and incredible host. The availability of the dishwasher and washing machine gained quite some points with us too! the pool is also of decent size, enough to keep guests entertained.

“An great location for a family holiday.”
There was a lot to like about the Gem Farmhouse. From prebooking until we left, the host, Jana, was available to answer questions. The location was superb for touring the island as well as being a fairly short drive from the airport. Initially we were going to hire a car. I'm glad we didn't as driving in Malta, even if they drive on the same side of the road as in the UK, is something else. We made good use of public transport. With so many buses we were able to get to everywhere we wanted to go. The Gem Farmhouse is located in the older part of Qormi and has been sympathetically converted from a domestic and farm building. The accommodation is arranged round a central area which includes a pool (2m deep) off which the rooms are accessed. Two ensuites are on the upper floor and a further three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a seating area and very large kitchen diner lead off the pool area. The accommodation worked well for three generations with the grandchildren (aged 1 and 3) sleeping in a room adjoining their parents room and sharing their bathroom, the grandparents in the master room (mind your head) at the other side of the square and the uncles in their own rooms on the upper level. Jana had provided a cot, including bedding, highchair, a few toys for the children and swim nappies. We didn't use the pool much as it is unheated and hadn't really had time to heat up much when we travelled in early May. I imagine that later in the season it would be warmer. The outside area was for sitting but the inside area was so large that the children had plenty of space to play in the mornings and evenings on either side of our daily excursions. There's air conditioning throughout but we didn't need it; the thick walls of the building kept the inside cool when the outside temperatures were in the high teens, early twenties. Secure Wi-Fi kept us connected and enabled the occasional TV viewing. It was a good choice for a family holiday accommodation.

“Great base for exploring”
It was great for us to have our while extended family together in the large communal areas while everyone also had their own rooms too. Perfect spot to use as a base for exploring Malta, close to regular buses into Valetta and bus exchanges Jana was always available to contact if their were any issues and was super easy to deal with
