Nightly room rate starting from:
The db San Antonio has undergone a major renovation in recent years and is one of the best hotel/resort of its kind in the area at the moment.
It may not be the cheapest option in town but you can get much more value than the few comparable hotels in the area. Probably the most-deserving of its four stars among Bugibba hotels.
TIP: The sea-facing side of the hotel offers great views out towards St. Paul’s Island and is worth paying the premium for.
Nightly room rate starting from:
As you’d expect from the name, the Seaview Hotel Malta is located along the Bugibba seafront and offers wide-open sea views. Being a fairly new hotel in the area you can expect a modern design and a level of facilities that match the 4-star rating of this property.
Hotel rooms are bright, spacious and comfortable, the food gets good reviews and if you’re looking for some relaxation time, the infinity rooftop pool is an excellent option to unwind while taking in the views.
Please note: This hotel is advertised as welcoming “adults only”
Nightly room rate starting from:
The Dolmen Resort Hotel is located on the coast of Buġibba and is one of the better-known hotels in the area, with good quality accommodation. With its seafront location, the hotel boasts a seaside lido with an outdoor pool, which is unique to hotels in this area.

The Salini Resort is a hotel located just outside the Buġibba/Qawra/St. Paul’s Bay area. It’s a good option for those looking to benefit from a location suitable for exploring Malta while not being right in the middle of the hustle and bustle of what can be a rather busy location during the high season.

Things to consider
Nightly room rate starting from:
The Soreda Hotel is located just a stone’s-throw away from the seafront and offers a good level of accommodation at reasonable rates. With a rooftop pool, well-equipped gym, and large restaurant, it’s a value offer compared to the other hotels listed in this category. Although technically a 4-star hotel, it’s not quite at the same level and looks a little tired in places.
Things to consider

Located on the (unofficial) border of Buġibba and Qawra, the Mayflower Hotel is a fairly new addition in the area that offers a quality stay in a modern setting.

Nightly room rate starting from:
Pebbles Resort is a great little hotel in the heart of Bugibba, just off the main seaside square.

Nightly room rate starting from:
The Topaz Hotel is centrally located in Bugibba and offers good value accommodation with relatively low rates compared to other 3-star hotels in the area.

Refurbished in recent years, the Sunseeker Holiday Complex is consistently racking up positive reviews and is a good recommendation if you’re looking for a value stay in Bugibba.

Nightly room rate starting from:
Although fairly new in town, Tarona Guesthouse is a great option if you’re on a budget and aren’t too fussed about pools and other amenities that regular hotels offer. Centrally located on the border of St. Paul’s Bay, you’ll be staying in a slightly quieter part of Bugibba.

Hi, what is your view on Sunny Coast Resort & Spa AX Hotel? Please advise. Thank you.

Hi Jozita, it’s been a while since I’ve gotten reviews about that one but last I heard it was in dire need of refurbishment and wasn’t worth the rates charged. Also one of the reasons why I didn’t include it in the list above.
