This property was chosen for access to the airport. It was about 11 euros taxi ride, and very convenient. This is a working port town but a nice walk around the sea with a little beach. The hotel provides beach towels. We enjoyed the restaurant next door but there was one in the hotel and plenty of others surrounding the hotel. The staff was nice and the room was comfortable with a port view and balcony.

It was a great location to get to the airport and rest inbetween.
Short one night stay. I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing view from my room. The location is superb, right on the beach, very clean room, comfy bed. Highly recommend this hotel in Birzebbuga.
Right on the beach and a quick trip from the airport. Bed comfortable and pleasant hotel. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Would recommend for an overnight visit with several restaurants near by.
Room ok, a bit tight, does the job but nothing more. Clean with lovely view on Malta Freeport.

The location is very good overlooking the beach and close to transport and shopping. But be prepared for Bingo outside the hotel every night of the week!
Lovely beach view from balcony , no noise if door closed at night,wifi and air con in room ,cleaned everyday and coffee filled up if needed, would definately recommend
Great value, modern, right on the beach. Breakfast ok but a bit limited. Buses X4 and 82 take you to Valletta from right outside the hotel in under an hour.
The view was great. The water in the shower was always hot and for me there was a safe for your valuables . The bus stop to down town and everywhere else was across the street.
Watersedge is a nice clean hotel. Breakfast is good, Staff friendly. Food in restaurant is good, but is often busy and so can be a bit noisy. There are three other eating places within yards and another Angelinos across the park which is excellent. The bus stop is within yards of the hotel so access is easy and the buses reasonably punctual. The bay is sandy and water clean, the area pleasant and not too busy.
We have stayed at least three times now and will be booking again in the future.
Basic but clean and room spacious. Small fridge pus a kettle in room. Hairdryer available from reception and beach towels with a deposit. Great position on the beach with great views. Reception staff very friendly.
Water's Edge is a very comfortable hotel. We had a lovely big room with a great view. We arrived very late that evening but nothing was too much trouble with Reception. We received a warm welcome.
