We went to Malta several years ago and stayed in Sliema and visited several other resorts briefly. We are now considering going in May to Buggiba/Qawra and would like to hear comments on hotels there. I have read so many unfavourable opinions in the hotel section.
I am wondering if any hotels are comparable with 3*/4* which we go to in Spain. Two that I am tempted by are the Canifor and Qawra Palace.
We are retired but like a fairly lively resort with friendly bars and some entertainment. (eg we like Benidorm and Palma Nova) so which is better Qwara or Buggiba?
Please can anyone who goes regularly offer some advice. I'm trying to persuade my husband to go back to Malta so I need some favourable info!!
Are bar prices much like ours?
Can anyone recommend a map so that I can compare the two areas?
many thanks for any help.

You do get a lot of young people in Bugibba in the summer so Qawra may suit you better and as for the bar prices well it seems once places join the E U up go the prices, but thet are still cheaper than at home. Sorry cannot help with the hotels.

"Are bar prices much like ours? " - depends, what are "ours" prices like ? after EU, prices are little changed - what prices are you after ?
eg beer lm 60c-1.00 /pint (£1-1.60)

Here is a link that contains lots of bars in and around the Buggiba/Qawra area. It contains photos of the bars so it should give you a good idea as to what they are like. http://www.starwebmalta.com/
A good hotel to look at in Qawra is the Grand Hotel Mecure San Antonio.
Buggiba and Qawra are next to each other and it is possible to walk from one to the other.
I have been looking on the'Chevron' site and got some good quotes, they are much cheaper than Thomson who we book most of our holidays with.
I just have to decide which hotel.
I would have liked to try DIY but have left it too late to get a good flight deal.
to GOZOMARK--- the prices I was looking for were for example:-
Pint lager (Local)
Brandy
Gin/lemonade
Bacardi/coke
Baileys
Thanks. Sue
Brandy
Gin/lemonade
Bacardi/coke
Baileys
all the above are normally 60c- Lm1 (£1-1.60)
cheers !
