The hotel is clean, well-maintained, and the breakfast is plentiful and varied.

However, they seem to be having trouble communicating with the reservation system. We booked three rooms with breakfast included, and upon arrival, it turned out that only one room had breakfast included. So, I had to send them confirmations for all the rooms. The receptionist confirmed that everything was in order, but the next day at breakfast, it turned out they wouldn't let our group in because the breakfast staff didn't recognize our pre-paid breakfast in the system. This meant I had to explain the situation again. When I'm going on vacation, I shouldn't be interested in handling reservation-related matters for a hotel employee. That's their job, not mine.

and the hotel bar also lacks a bit of honesty, the Happy Hours promotion sometimes turns out to be 100% paid and the beer that is supposed to be 500 ml on the menu suddenly turns out to be 300 ml

A comfortable hotel with modern rooms and helpful staff. The dining area is a little cramped at breakfast but the variety is decent and of a good quality. Dinner seemed similarly busy - there are some excellent restaurants in the area which may be better.
The outdoor pool was clean but a little chilly. The indoor pool was surprisingly warm and very popular with guests.
A surprisingly pleasant, relaxed experience

The food was excellent with a good choices each evening and the staff worked like a whirlwind to make tables clear and clean and making sure we were all accommodated asap.However it was difficult for them when SO many guests turned up at the same time for breakfast and evening meal especially so I suggest you have dining times that are adhered to so we all get our table without waiting outside.VERY GOOD food.
Indoor swimming pool let down by poor shower facilities with nowhere to hang your clothes or a locker to put them in.I had to keep my towel and room keys in my mouth to keep them dry.This I think is the reason so few people use the indoor swimming pool which itself is very nice and warm. I will visit again and the reception staff were also very helpful.

The hotel was beautiful, clean modern and a touch of elegance. You get provided with a towel card for the pool which is a fab addition. The indoor pool was great, open u til 10am.

From the moment we arrived at the reception ,the staff were very helpful,they explained some things,then they gave us room 207 which was imaculate clean.Thanks to the cleaning staff that works so hard.
The room was not too big but it had all that we needed.like tea and coffee facilities,fridge and a safe.the only thing that was a bit uncomfortable was the position of the safe.
Also breakfast was good although if there will be more healthy options it would be better.
Indoor pool looks nice altough we did not use it.Also the hotel it is near the promenade and you can reach bugibba and Qawra within walking distance.
Is was a nice stay,thanks Pebbles resort.

The reception staff very polite and very good with providing the right information.

This is a basic hotel, 2- to maximum 3 stars maybe, the facilities are very basic, the room with 2 double beds were a good size but apart that the cleaning and the amenities are just far from 4 stars.
We find hair in the beds and the cleaning in the room is not done properly, the walls are full of dead mosquitos.
We did not have enough towels, dental kits or sleepers.
We did not have a makeup table, with a proper light.
Empty fridge
No blankets/ duvets/
No glasses/cups for all the guests, we constantly had to call reception for something and this was very uncomfortable for us.
The dining / breakfast aria was very dark and very busy no enough stuff to attend the needs of the guest; food was just basic; coffee machine stoped working.
The tables in the dining room were cleaned with chemicals spray and the stuff just sprayed this without even consider our food just centimetres away.
The dining area was very crowded and noise.

No drinks for dinner providedeven if we had half board booked, not even water for the table, this was not advice by the booking or by the reception.

The gym is too small and too crowded;
The internal pool full of kids, very noisy and the smell of bleach was so strong we could feel it on the lift, from outside the pool area;
-the lift was very small and constantly used by staff; the floor in the lift was constantly wet.

The aria outside the hotel is very very dirty

Wonderful Service!

I had a wonderful stay at Pebbles Resort. The friendliness of the staff was exceptional. They couldn’t do enough for their guests and it truly was service with a smile.

Great food and drink options. Very clean. Pool was cold but refreshing and never a problem to find a sun bed.

Just one small thing, the music around the pool started too early and was too loud.

The only draw back about the hotel nowadays is the lack of on street parking.

All in all the staff are brilliant and the food is good. The hotel is,also very clean.

The 2nd floor is looking a bit dated with broken floor boards. The rooms are very comfortable with tea/coffee, toiletries etc all included. Again the rooms on the 2nd floor need fixing, loose toilet seat, bed side lights not working. I only mention the 2nd floor as in the past 5 times this year the rooms were better.

Great hotel that's a short walk from the water

Stayed here for a week in November. All of the staff were friendly and attentive.

Room: Large comfy bed (you could fit 3 pillows across it!). Nice space. Very clean. TV had plenty of channels. Room had a safe, kettle and fridge. AC worked great.

Bathroom: Very clean. Nice strong water pressure in shower. Only two downsides (very minor!) the pictures showed a walk-in shower but this was a bath with showerhead, which we were ok with, but also the bathroom did not have an extractor fan.

Hotel amenities: Large selection of hot and cold food for breakfast. Evening buffet was high quality that changed every night. The additional restaurant in the hotel (a la carte, not buffet) was great quality food at a decent price. Lovely cocktails available in the bar. 2 pools; one outdoor chlorine one and an indoor which was fresh water

The area around the hotel is ok, but it is only about 5-10 minutes walk to the water, which was great. Parking around the hotel was very difficult so we just parked about an 8 minute walk away. No issue with that.

We would definitely stay here again!

The hotel itself is exceptionally clean and rooms are comfortable. Staff are very helpful. This is the second time we stayed. The breakfast is plentiful too and has a lovely indoor pool. My only negative this time was thst we had a 16 euro credit per room but there were so many restrictions. We needed a late check out for one of our three rooms but they wanted to charge 5 euro per hour. It is all abiut the money, no give at all on anything.

Good hotel for a family stay off season

The hotel was very nice and good value (January stay). We used the indoor pool every day as it was warm...the outdoor pool water was very cold. The breakfast included was great. The room was spacious and comfortable. The local buses passed by on the nearby main road which was convenient. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Great hotel, poor shower

From being met at reception through to service overall it was great. The only problem we had was the shower in the bathroom. It was a walk in weet room but the water did not drain away fast enough and on the first night it flooded the bathroom AND the entire hotel room. We werent moved and we tried not to shower for the remaining time. And when we did we had to baricade the door and floor with towels and shower very quickly. This alone would stop me from rebooking there im afraid. Which is a real shame as everything else was spot on.

Great place to stay

We went to Pebbles Resort for our Honeymoon and we were blown away. All the staff are friendly and help with any questions we had. The room was super clean and the room was cleaned everyday! Only downside to the resort is the people staying there who reserve the sunbeds but disappear for the whole day only to return late in the afternoon, sadly there is no cure for being british. The location is brilliant, 5 minute walk to the sea and locations restaurants and a minutes walk to the nearest bus stop to get you to Valletta and Mdina and so many other places.

Absolute gem of a place !

We first checked in for 2 days in November. As soon as we first arrived we felt very welcomed by all the staff , so much so that we quickly extended our stay . We ended up spending 22 days there in the end over November & December ! Can honestly say this is the best hotel experience we have had !!

The Hotel is a 4 star but unlike some other 4 stars in Malta it is newly renovated and rooms / facilities are to a very good standard .

We ate mostly in the Med Asia Restaurant which has a fantastic Asian menu and big compliments to the Chefs as the food is awesome !

There is an authentic and very well presented English pub called The Anchor which was perfect for watching the footie with a great selection of drinks .

What really makes this place special though is the staff . Always warm and friendly with impeccable service. To name a few, Nikola, Baze , Sanja, both Ivanas, Jenny, Mahlia, Bijana,Stefan. A big thank you though to all the Pebbles staff and management who without exception always made us feel so welcome with such a warm and friendly vibe which made our stay very special .

We miss this place and can’t wait to return again very soon !

Nestled away in the residential area of San Paulo (Saint Paul’s Bay) is a newly renovated modern and clean hotel with good customer service and stylish fittings: Pebbles Resort. But, the stylish haven comes with a catch.

First impressions count, and ours sure did. Check in at Pebbles Resort is at 1500. Having stayed up and missed a night’s sleep to catch an early flight, we arrived at the hotel at 09:00 after catching the local bus from the airport. Six hours early and the friendly receptionist welcomed us in early and promptly arranged for our room to be prepared. We received an In-depth explanation of facilities, restaurant times and so on, and were given a drinks voucher to redeem two large glasses of wine at the hotel’s modern brand new gastropub. I have stayed at a number of hotels from three to five star- and this was one of the best welcomes i ha e received so far. The same member of staff was always at hand to attentively answer any queries we had during our stay, from questions about on site facilities to landmarks in the locality.

We stayed in a standard room on the third floor with a ‘city view’- I would advise against this view as it looks out on to the unattractive residential area that the hotel is situated in- more on this below. The room was well equipped with hot drinks making facilities and shower toiletries, both replenished daily, as well as a safe included. Room furniture was of good quality and there is plenty of storage space to unpack. The dressing

The only issue I had with the hotel was that there was no rubber bath mat. I slipped getting out of the bath because of this and banged and very badly bruised my arm on the side of the bath.
I reported it to the Hotel and a bath mat was brought to our room the next day.
I would like to know that they plan to put a rubber bath mat in ‘every’ room as Standard.
Once back in the UK I had an XRay and luckily it wasn’t broken.

This hotel is extremely far from EVERYTHING and the neighborhood is absolutely awful. It feels like you are walking in a war zone. To get to Valletta, it will take you about 1 hour if you get lucky and the bus is on time. If you take a taxi, you’ll pay around 25-30 euros each way. As the property is still under construction there is noise from both sides (in the pool side you hear construction from the hotel and from the street side you hear noise from the front building that is also under construction lol). Do not stay there; save yourself time and book something in Valetta area.
