Have booked the Coastline for January at a bargain £331 for the two of us. BA flights and hotel booked on Travel Republic - and that is half board too!! Flights were £130 and hotel £201 with a promotional code.
We have hired a car before in Malta but probably won't this time. Do we need to pre-book a taxi from the airport to hotel or just pick one up when we get there? We will be arriving at approx. 8.30pm. If it is a good idea to pre-book any recommendations??

Hi Pippa, you will find plenty at the airport, but make sure that you go to the taxi desk in arrivals and not just get one outside, Maltese taxi drivers are famous for creative accounting, whereby the taxi fares are regulated inside and you pay the office not the driver and you are then given a vouicher to give to the driver, however if you want to pre:book one let me know and I will give you some options.
Yes, please some options would be great!
No Problem. We stayed at the Coastline in March and phoned the Hotel reception from the UK just before our holiday and they booked the taxi for us. He was waiting at the airport when we arrived and he got us there no time! Cost about Lm10 which is the standard rate for this journey but you can check with the hotel at the time of booking.
You'll have a great time at the Coastline,

Thank you, we have been to the Coastline twice before so know the hotel and it's high standards.
Looks like I was talking to the converted!
We've also been several times to the Coastline. Thought you'd know about airport taxis as an old timer there but we use them because the one thing I'm sure you agree on is that when you get to Malta the last thing you want is a grand tour of the Island dropping everybody else off!
Have a great time,
Trev
The couple of times we have been before we have been on a package so have had coach transfers included. Have to say that I much prefer diy holidays where you either get a taxi or pick up your hire car - no waiting for those stragglers to get on the coach!!
