Westin Dragonara Resort

Exclusive and enchanting, the five-star Westin Dragonara Resort occupies Malta’s ultimate location, set upon a private peninsula with uninterrupted views over the Mediterranean. There’s an incredible amount of space, whether relaxing in your room, lounging by the pool, or taking a stroll to the private beaches.

On some holidays it’s easy to feel guilty for not leaving the resort. That isn’t the case here, where the complex is home to all manner of indulgences. Opulent five-star comfort is found in 340 air-conditioned guest rooms, almost all of which have a private terrace with uninterrupted views of the sea. The bathrooms are heavenly and the sound of softly lapping waves provides a lullaby after dusk.

Such a large seafront location ensures there’s always a space to suit your mood. A quiet adults-only pool and beachfront area is complemented by pool-side jacuzzis, spacious sundecks, and barefooted access to Mediterranean waters. Children and families also have a designated section with safe swimming waters. Everything comes with a view and the chance to grab a refreshing cocktail at the opulent outdoor bar.

With its polished courtyards and ornamental lounge areas, the Westin Dragonara Resort is quick to make every guest feel special. There are water sports to be enjoyed directly from the hotel plus a spa and full-size heated indoor pool. Step away from the facilities, including the three restaurants, and you can easily walk to all the major attractions of Paceville and the wider St. Julian’s area. The iconic Dragonara Casino is part of the property but note that many of the other facilities are exclusive to hotel guests.
