What could be more Malta than sleeping in an ancient fort? The culturally rich island—a magnificent liminal space between North Africa, the Mediterranean and Europe—is so chock-a-block with castle-like structures, the place might as well be one big fort.

Senglea, or I-Isla as it’s also known, is one of the Three Cities opposite Valletta. It’s here that Cugó Gran Macina has given a new lease of life to the centuries-old fortifications, originally built during the 16th century by the Knights of St John, by absorbing part of it into its structure. Much is made of this marriage of old and new.

Occupying part of the old bastion built by Malta’s Knights, this stylish stay takes its name from the macina (crane) that was added in the 16th-century to hoist goods ashore and de-mast ships. It continued in use until the 1920s, though you’re more likely to see yachts than warships in the marina these days.

LUXURY VILLA

“This luxury villa one mile outside of Sant Climent is a true home from home-you-wish- you-had.

Watch the sunset in all its brilliance from your sofa on the balcony, then take a twilight walk through the 250-acre estate, which features a vineyard, herb gardens and chickens – whom you can thank for the fluffy eggs you’ll be served the following morning.”
