Having read the reviews of the Bella Vista Hotel we were not looking forward to the holiday. However, the rooms were a good size, clean, and the beds were comfortable, also we had a good pool view.
Although the sun was only on around the pool until 1.15pm, it meant there were no shortages of sun lounges! There is a sun roof terrace which remains hot and sunny all day, and there is a bar up there too! Because the pool was cold the kids spent a lot of time in the indoor one, also there are two pool tables to keep them entertained!
The food was very good, although we only had bacon once for breakfast and there was beef for dinner 3 days running, but apart from that the food was good. The hotel is on a busy road but you can go through the back door for a short cut to Bugibba.
There is also a courtesy bus which takes you to Qawra bus station, and will pick you up from a bar if you ask. We found an excellent bar called Murphy

After booking our holiday I looked at the hotel reviews and was dreading going the Bella Vista but we were all surprised.
My party consisted of 6 adults, 3 children under 4 and 2 five month old babies. The hotel was very clean. Our room was lovely it contained 4 normal sized beds and a baby cot and we still had plenty of space. The other rooms were twin rooms one with a cot and the other a camp bed. The bedding and towels were changed every day.
Food was fine we used to go down early to get the children's menu and they loved it. I would have liked to have seen some fresh fruit on the menu particularly for the children.
The staff were wonderful extremely friendly even to the children.
Entertainment was poor bingo night was good but we did go in February.
If you hire a car the hotel location is fine and we never had to worry about getting a parking space. Bus stops were outside the hotel.

We stayed at the Bella Vista Hotel for our honeymoon, and enjoyed it very much. The majority of the staff were very friendly and helpful.
The food was good although they seemed to do the same things quite often.
It was a bit of a walk to get to the bars in the evening, and the hotel entertainment was not great. Although some of the older guests seemed to enjoy it. We hired a car which made getting about the island very easy, and was good value.
We were surprised at how expensive the cost of telephone calls were, using the phone in our room, which we had to use as one of our cases was lost at manchester airport.

When we first arrived didn't know what to expect but we had a warm welcome and plenty of smiles
Had an accident when we were in Malta and the staff all rallied round and gave 200% effort and understanding to make sure that we still enjoyed the visit, they advised us of where to hire crutches etc.. and is adapted to disabled people
Food is varied but is plenty to choose from need to pre order children's meals though
Entertainment is not up to the rest of the hotels standards and is mainly aimed at those who like ballroom dancing or a good tango
We would take our daughter there again but I would definitely go out in the evening for other entertainment
