Breathtaking little villa
The whole accommodation is clean and as described as well as shown on the pictures. I would delete the word “new” from the headline because that is not true anymore. Nevertheless, all of us enjoyed our stay in this extravagant Villa. Even though, the place is not quite cheap.

Beautiful House, Wonderful Stay
Our extended family (6 adults, a teen, 2 children and a baby) stayed in Villa Dorado last week and would highly recommend it. We all enjoyed the infinity pool with a sea view, the outdoor barbeque, the rooftop terrace, the storage space, pool table, etc. With kids and a pool, the washing machine and tumble dryer were particularly helpful. It's just a short walk to quite a few little supermarkets that are open every day and late hours. We could walk around easily to the harbour area of Marsaskala for dinner or ice cream, or down along the sea the other direction to other restaurants and places to swim in the sea. Plenty of parking for rental cars.

Estancia muy satisfactória
Es una casa espectacular, donde pasar unos dias con amigos es todo un lujo. Quizá no es la mejor zona para alojarse un grupo de jóvenes, pero también he de añadir que con Bolt podiamos desplazarnos con gran facilidad a zonas con más ambiente por un precio razonable. Un dia nos quedamos sin vitroceramica pero no tardaron ni 2 horas en poner solución desde que dimos el aviso. Puntualidad con los transportes en la puerta de casa gracias a la propietaria en parte. Estaba muy limpia y ordenada, con todo tipo de electrodomésticos para hacer tu estancia más cómoda, el único inconventiente quiza que podría sacar, es la falta de 1 habitación más, siendo un grupo de 11, una persona se quedaba sin habitación teniendo que dormir en una cama en mitad del "pasillo" sin aire acondicionado por lo tanto era imposible dormir porque era un horno pero bueno pudimos apañarnos colocando el colchón en una de las habitaciones, y el jacuzzi no se si es que eramos demasiado torpes, pero no calentaba el agua de ninguna manera. En general una estancia para repetir sin duda.

Amazing Villa and location, plenty of space for us all (6 adults 1 child), everything you need in the villa . We did an online food order and the host Amanda took delivery and put everything away for us, great service. Any questions to the host were answered very quickly. Plenty of places to shop and eat nearby. Would recommend the villa. We had an amazing family holiday.

The pinnacle point of the holiday living the dream in such amazing surroundings.
Our stay at Villa Dorado was magical beyond all expectations. The grounds were impeccable and simply beautiful. Amanda who greeted us made us feel like home straight away with an amazing tour around the Villa pointing out what we should know to make the surroundings and living area even more amazing. There was an extra expense for electricity which accumulated to be a small amount between everyone,this was mainly to fuel the air conditioning which was amazing throughout the whole Villa on them warm days/nights. The bed situation was perfect, all of them were very comfortable and we were also left with extra towels and body wash for showering. In the kitchen there was everything available to be able to do some cooking if needed. If we come back to Malta we would not consider staying anywhere other than here. Absolutely perfect! Sad To return to reality after an incredible week, the Villa being the pinnacle point of the trip. Thanks very much Amanda

Une somptueuse villa tout confort
Nous étions 17 personnes et avons passé 3 nuits à la Villa Dorado + l'unité supplémentaire pour les 40 ans de ma sœur. C'est une maison aux grands espaces, très design et un équipement de très bonne qualité. Les chambres sont très spacieuses et les salles de bains sont propres. La vue est magnifique. La piscine est superbe. Un arrêt de bus se situe juste sur le trottoir devant la villa, c'est très pratique. La cuisine contient les éléments de première nécessité (sel, poivre, sucre…) ce qui est fort appréciable. Côté literie, l'ensemble des matelas sont de bonne qualité, à l'exception du lit rond dont le matelas est coupé en deux demi-cercles, ce qui n'est pas confortable. Autre petit bémol : La villa n'ayant pas été louée depuis quelques jours, il y faisait très froid les 2 premiers jours (le temps que le chauffage réchauffe les murs de l'immense villa), ce qui nous a fait dépasser le forfait d'électricité initialement prévu, d'où un surplus de dépenses. Amanda a été de bons conseils, était disponible (avant le séjour - par mail - et pendant le séjour) et serviable (elle nous a même gentiment apporté des médicaments un dimanche car la pharmacie était fermée). Merci Amanda !!! En résumé, nous recommandons fortement cette villa si vous souhaitez passer de bonnes vacances. Il faudrait être difficile pour ne pas l'aimer.

Villa Dorado
We felt we paid top price for what it was and were very disappointed to incur additional electricity charge for using the air-conditioning. We were there in middle of summer and there were no fans. There was no alternative but use air-con sparingly. My husband and I sweltered in the top bedroom. The pool was very warm but developed a lot of algae during our stay. The kitchen, although modern was sparsely equipped (no lemon juicer, plastic wrap). Based on the additional electricity charge alone we would not rebook this villa. We spent 3 1/2 months travelling through Europe staying in numerous properties and no others charged for additional electricity.

Amazing villa! Located in a beautiful area near a waterfront, this villa is perfectly set up, beautifully decorated and very nicely managed by Amanda, a responsive and friendly owner. The near by supermarket has everything you need, a gorgeous bay surrounded by restaurants and cafes is within 15min walking. A bus stop is located outside of the front door and it costs EUR2 to go to Valletta for 25min on bus 93. From the views in the pool, to the modern kitchen, to beautiful balconies and modern showers, this is a perfect place to spend your holidays.
