Stunning 3 bedroom townhouse in a beautiful location: within the ancient walled city of Mdina. Recently renovated to the highest standards. Agatina's is a comfortable home brimming with old character and charm yet complimented by modern furnishings.
The space
The property, named Agatina's, is situated in the heart of Mdina - Malta's old capital city. Mdina is a fortified Medieval City of around 300 inhabitants. It is one of Europe's finest examples of an ancient walled city and is extraordinary in its mix of medieval and baroque architecture.
Living in Mdina is comparable to residing in an open air museum. It is a perfect location for those who enjoy culture and for those who would truly like to experience residing in this magnificent city steeped in history where everything is within walking distance.
Its location cannot be emphasised enough - it is situated WITHIN the walled city of Mdina (not in other towns such as Rabat, Bahrija, Mtarfa or Mosta nor in the outer-limits of Mdina). This is quite a rarity as there are very few opportunities for tourists to live and reside within Mdina. Our location in the 'Silent City' of Mdina is unrivalled compared to many other available properties that advertise themselves as located in Mdina, when in fact they are outside the city gates of Mdina.
Agatina's is a property that has been recently renovated with modern furnishings. The final result is a very comfortable property that can easily host 7 guests in its 3 large bedrooms both in the Summer and Winter months.
For potential guest's convenience, here is a general description of the layout of the house.
Agatina's is spread over 3 floors that are connected by a central and majestic staircase.
The ground floor/1st floor opens to a living room. One can find 2 large and comfortable leather sofas that face each other and a large coffee table in this room. In a chest of drawers, we provide numerous books, maps and touristic information that all guests to Mdina will find useful.
The property then leads to a small study area, where a cosy desk is situated under the staircase. This is an ideal place to read and relax. It is also the epitome of a laptop-friendly work area.
One can then proceed to a separate dining room with comfortable seating for 7 people in the shape of a large Mahogany table and 6 chairs. The dining room leads to a courtyard which is large enough to dine in the open air and/or host a barbecue.
The kitchen is also found on the ground/1st floor. The kitchen is furnished with a microwave, separate hobs and oven, toaster, fridge, kettle etc. There is also a washing machine available in the kitchen. Also situated on the ground/1st floor is a separate WC and a separate shower.
Onwards to the the 2nd floor. On the right side of the 2nd floor there is a bedroom with 2 single beds. These can be joined together to form a majestic double bed. The room is centred around a large window, which provides a substantial amount of natural sunlight, that overlooks the quaint alley that leads to the house.
On the left hand side of the 2nd floor there is a second bedroom with 2 single beds (these also can be joined together to form a double bed). This second bedroom enjoys an ensuite shower-room and an ensuite bathroom (allowing 2 people to wash at the same time) with a WC and 2 'his' and 'her' sinks. There is also a small balcony which can be accessed from this bedroom where one can sit and enjoy the tranquility that Mdina provides.
The 3rd and final floor consists of a large double ensuite bedroom which commands lovely views of Mdina's skyline. We like to refer to this as the 'honeymoon suite’. This room enjoys an adjoining shower-room with a large shower, WC and sink. This bedroom also enjoys a small and pleasantly designed functioning kitchenette.
The 3rd and final floor also consists of a roof terrace where one can pleasantly enjoy a drink whilst enjoying stunning views of the Mdina Cathedral and Mdina's skyline.
We will do our utmost to ensure that you will enjoy your stay in Mdina.
Although there are 3 double bedrooms, we are able to host 8 people in total by placing two folding beds in the other bedrooms.

Well-presented space in the heart of Mdina,
Well-presented space in the heart of Mdina, we really enjoyed the secluded courtyard, it was like an extra outdoor room. Joanna was very responsive and helpful, as well as welcoming.

It was a real privilege to stay here
It was a real privilege to stay here, in the centre of the historic city, close enough to the bars and restaurants of Rabat to enjoy the short stroll there, but far enough away to experience the ancient city of Mdina in silence, save for the church bells ;-) The view from the roof terraces is so beautiful. The house is homely, unpretentious and very well-equipped for a good long stay.

The property is located in a beautiful area at the heart of Mdina which is very peaceful at nighttime.
The property is located in a beautiful area at the heart of Mdina which is very peaceful at nighttime. The host was very friendly and gave clear instructions as to how to get there from the airport with all forms of transport. Gave a lot of advice about things to do and what to see. Highly recommend to anyone looking for somewhere quiet to stay in a beautiful location. Bus service right outside the gate Mdina to all locations in Malta.

This is a lovely narrow town house in the middle of Mdina city,
This is a lovely narrow town house in the middle of Mdina city, very close to all the sights but tucked away along a cul-de-sac so that it was quiet. The house constitutes a ground floor with frontroom, kitchen and toilet/shower, a first floor with two bedrooms (one has en suite) and the second floor with en suite. The ground floor has a courtyard, the first floor has a balcony and the second floor a roof terrace. The house was clean and well presented throughout and left some small items of food to get us going after a long journey. The owner met us in person to deliver keys and make sure we were OK, even though we arrived late (11+ pm) after flight delays. They replied to occasional text requests and checked up on us through the week. It was a superb spot and a lovely stay which I would recommend.

The house was beautiful,
The house was beautiful, we loved the fabulous original staircase, windows and Maltese floor tiles. The views from the roof were spectacular. The kitchen was fine but needs a bit of TLC. We enjoyed the local restaurants and bars, and made use of sun umbrellas and cool box provided (thank you). Communication with host was great and we really enjoyed our stay.
