Harbour Lodge

Harbour Lodge is a guesthouse at 38 San Piju V Street in Marsaxlokk, the traditional fishing village on the south-east coast of Malta. Marsaxlokk is known for its colourful luzzu fishing boats, its harbour-front restaurants specialising in fresh fish, and its Sunday market, which fills the waterfront with stalls selling fish, produce, lace and souvenirs. The guesthouse is near the fishing harbour, within walking distance of the waterfront restaurants and the market, and the parish church of Our Lady of Pompei stands at the centre of the village. Valletta is about 40 minutes away by bus, and Malta International Airport is roughly 10 to 15 minutes by road, which makes Marsaxlokk a convenient, characterful base for visitors who prefer a village atmosphere. Nearby attractions include the Tas-Silg archaeological site, the beach at St Peter's Pool for swimming, and the Delimara peninsula with its walking paths and coves. Accommodation is in Double Rooms with air conditioning and Wi-Fi. The guesthouse is modest in size and facilities, with no advertised pool, spa or restaurant, so guests typically eat at the harbour-front restaurants, where fish such as lampuki, in season, and fresh catches are served. Breakfast arrangements should be confirmed when booking. Service is informal and personal, typical of small family-run Maltese guesthouses, and the property suits budget-conscious couples, photographers and independent travellers. Typical double room rates run from about EUR 60 to EUR 120 per night depending on season, indicative rather than live figures. Marsaxlokk is busiest on Sunday mornings and in summer, when day visitors fill the harbour. Public buses serve the village, though a taxi or hired car makes it easier to reach Delimara and other beaches.
