Simply the best!

This is our favourite hotel in the world! It has recently been upgraded with beautiful gardens and redecorated bedrooms. Very comfy beds- I checked out the mattress to see if I can buy one- called Windsor but made in Malta! Another lovely stay with much use of the beautiful spa pool and lovely breakfasts outdoors by the carob tree, with very friendly cats as well! The best relaxing place ever…oh and great evening meals too!

Ta Cenc is a wonderful place to relax. In spite of stormy weather we had a great time; the spa pool is well heated and a lovely setting, and the food was excellent. We have been staying here for 8 years but never in the winter before. The experience was just as enjoyable as on a summer’s day. We’ll be back again in the spring! Ps we love the friendly cats!

The property is well laid out, offering well maintained and comfortable areas for dining, swimming and exercise. Staff are well trained and are eager to assist. No issues there. However, the guest rooms are in need of some attention. Some of the issues we noticed: 1: Broken Tiles in the bathroom. 2: Room furniture shows signs of wear 3: Room air conditioning not operational 4: Bed mattress and pillows are in desperate need of replacement. Mattress is very soft, pillows are very flat. 5: Room TV is small; Remote control has electrical tape holding it together. 6: Toilet seat not entirely secure; shifts while in use 7: Bathtub is small and the bottom is curved (not flat), making it hard not to slip when taking a shower. 8: Could not determine how to use the room safe; no instructions provided. Respectfully, Rob Donald

We had a truly memorable stay at this beautiful 5-star hotel and spa. The setting is idyllic, with a perfect balance of tranquility and access to local attractions. It’s an ideal location for both relaxation and exploration. From check-in to check-out, the staff were warm, professional, and eager to help. The spa is a particular highlight. Peaceful, beautifully maintained, and a real haven for relaxation. Our room was elegant, spotless, and thoughtfully designed, with lovely amenities and attention to detail. The only slight drawback was the comfort of the bed. While the bedding itself was high quality, the plastic mattress protector underneath was a bit noticeable and detracted slightly from what we had expected to be a completely plush, seamless sleeping experience. Service by the pool, while friendly, was also a little slower than expected for a hotel of this caliber. It wasn’t a major issue, but there were a few delays in ordering and receiving drinks, which stood out only because everything else was so smooth and efficient throughout the hotel. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely return. With just a few small improvements, this would be a flawless luxury escape.

A place you keep coming back to

It was our second time at the hotel and we even got to stay in the same room. Although the decor may be a little bit dated in the bathroom, the overall impression of the place is one of great comfort and charm. The public areas of very well appointed and inviting. The heated pool is such an additional bonus. The staff is wonderful, the food terrific and the surroundings simply stunning.

I stayed at this hotel expecting a 5-star experience, but what I got was far from it. The room was not particularly clean, which is unacceptable for a hotel of this level. The minibar in our Junior Suite was completely empty, even though they took my credit card as a guarantee for any consumption. It’s hard to understand the logic behind that. Service was a disaster: the bar and pool areas were practically unattended. Worst of all, at the pool bar, I was refused a drink simply because I was wearing a bathrobe instead of regular clothes. When I politely asked for an explanation, the bar staff member didn’t even stop to talk to me — she just walked past and, without looking at me, said I had to be dressed. The attitude was rude and unprofessional. At check-in, I was handed a form and told to fill in my own details — again, not something I would ever expect from a supposedly high-end hotel. Overall, this place lacks the service, attention to detail, and professionalism you'd expect from a true 5-star hotel. I will not be returning, and I cannot recommend it.

We liked it all but have a couple of suggestions to improve it. Ban smoking in all outside eating areas; offer drinks when around the pools; provide a very small shop/area where you can buy essentials (eg sun cream, sun hat, cover up wrap etc); provide better tennis balls or option to buy new balls; the bar staff were under extreme pressure so provide more staff; quality of dinner could be improved a little although was decent value for money

Suite au message transmis à l’hôtel, la Direction a fait un geste pour compenser la chambre horrible que nous avions eue la 1ere nuit. La suite est nettement mieux, le personnel est parfait et à l’écoute. En revanche, cet hôtel est très loin d’être un 5*, je mettrai seulement 2*, et c’est déjà beaucoup par rapport au prix de la chambre. Le SPA est correct, mais vieillot

Merveilleux séjour

Nous avons passé 6 jours merveilleux à l'hôtel Ta' Cenc & Spa. Nous avons profité de son cadre fabuleux et de son SPA très agréable. Le petit déjeuner est top et si vous mangez le soir vous ne serez pas déçu, ni par le service ni par le contenu de votre assiette. Merci à toute l'équipe. Si on doit retenir un truc moins bien, les chambres sont un peu veillotte. Mais honnêtement je recommande à 100%
