Bacchus is the best deal in Mdina. We passed by this restaurant when
we took a guided tour of Malta which included Mdina, back in May
2008. It was built in 1650 but the outer walls date back 2000 years.
The food was great and the house wine mediocre. The surroundings were
very much in keeping with the entire feel of Mdina. Dark, old, quite
and underground. We had two appetizers which were more than enough
food for us, a bottle of wine and a tea and the bill came to less than
30 Euro all in.

The Gozo Kempinski from our balcony. Alas the outdoor pool is not
heated. The indoor pool was a perfect 32 degrees and quite the match
for the outdoor pool. The indoor jacuzzi was only 34 and the steam
sauna was also not quite hot enough for our tastes. The restaurant and
cafe balconies had similarly spectacular views but the food was
horrendously overpriced compared to equal or better class local
restaurants. We had a nice surprise with the Kids Club free daycare.
The service was first class and faultless and Irena enjoyed a flower
laced bath and a facial and mask at the spa on Sunday. We'll be back.

There are a couple of small but top notch beaches in Malta. One is at
Golden Bay in the NW of the island. The other is by the Corinthia and
Intercontinental North of Sliema and Valletta. The rest are solid rock
beaches with ladders dropping off into the water. The sand is coarse
and peppered with tiny sea shells.
