We had a very nice stay at Karens House.
We were 12 people and there was plenty of room for all of us.
Karen is very helpfull. She drove us to the supermarket on our first day, and she always answered any questions immidiately.
The area surrounding Karens House is very quit, which we appreciated.
We found a nice path along the coast which lead us to a hidden and very beautiful Beach. The walk from the House to the Beach is only 30 minutes. We can only recommend it.

My family of 11 spent 8 days in this beautiful villa.
Our hosts Karen and Pedro were so helpful.
Karen drove us to the local supermarket on our first night to stock up with provisions.
The Villa is located in such a peaceful part of Malta.
Thank you so much Karen and Pedro for making our Malta holiday a happy and memorable one

We visited as a group of 9 adults.
The house is very spacious and in a good location.
Karen, the owner, is very kind and easy to deal with. This place worked well for us, and we'd stay here again.

We were a family celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary so our range was 5 to nearly 80. The villa was perfect we had enough rooms for the entire family with the pool and BBQ it made it a perfect place for our holiday. You will need a car as the supermarket is at the top of the hill and the wonderful beaches are at the bottom.
The area is full of sandy beaches which the grandchildren loved and the area and island is packed with historical sites.
Karen the owner lives next door and could have not been more helpful.
Would not hesitate to recommend this villa to everyone.
10.0 / 10.0
A large lovely villa in a very quiet location , but near enough to local shops, restaurants and beaches . The inside of the villa ls furnished and equipped to a high standard . The two pools are in the sun all day , we spent a lot of time in them and relaxing by them . On google maps it shows a building site next door , but this not the case it is Karens own beautiful villa there now . We would really recommend this villa for your stay in Malta

Three generations had a wonderful week-long holiday at this property. The house was fantastic for all, well equipped, easy to manage and the pools were absolutely perfect. We had two pre-schoolers who adored the kids pool and the whole group spent hours and hours in the main pool. There are plenty of loungers, a great table on the terrace for dinner and Karen's hospitality was great. She kindly took us to the supermarket on our arrival, helped with all transfers and was always on hand for any minor issues or questions we had. The beach and town were both a short drive away and Karen was able to offer lots of advice. I would highly recommend this property for a family holiday. Thanks Karen!

The villa was nice but not elegant. Karen, the owner, lived next door and she and her husband were always available for assistance. The refrigerator did not really freeze and leaked water which Karen replaced. For a large family, this was a good place.

We have just returned from a fantastic holiday in Malta staying at Villa Sunnyside. The villa is situated in a quiet residential part of Mellieha and is in close proximity to the beach, shops and restaurants. We didn’t hire a car during our stay, instead we opted to use the excellent bus service to get around the island.
The villa itself had absolutely everything that you could possibly need for a self catering holiday and is very well equipped throughout. The pools are lovely. Although a little chilly for us adults as we were staying at the beginning of April, the children were in water at every opportunity, giving us time to relax on the spacious terrace.
Karen and Patrick made us feel extremely welcome and Karen’s mum even drove us to a nearby supermarket to stock up with some provisions for our stay.
Overall, this is a beautiful villa maintained to an excellent standard throughout which gave us the perfect holiday in Malta. Hopefully we’ll return!

Me and my extended family stayed at this villa in september , eight of us in total and there was plenty of room for us all and loads to spare, the lady that runs the place arranged a taxi the airport for us and right awwy as soon as we got.there she made us feel like we were long lost family or something ,offering to show us the local shops and making sure we had everything we needed for our week in the sun.
The villa is in a very nice quiet arra of mellieha but walking distance to the sea and shops, although to be honest it was hard to drag ourselves away from the place and just lounging by the large swimming pool and having barbecues and things took up most of our week.
Cleanliness was fantastic which was good because my sister in law is an absoloute cleanaholic and even she was impressed with the standards.
Overall the villa is situated very well for the fantastic mellieha beach and local tourist spots of bugibba and golden bay, not too far away from the ferry port for the other island of gozo and yet still lovely and quiet for an away from it all holiday with no hassles at all.
During our stay there was a village festa taking place and some of the friendly neighbours invited us to join them to celebrate as the area seems to be mainly residential and very very friendly, the maltese certainly know how to make their guests feel welcome and i will most certainly be talking my family into a repeat visit to the area and especially this villa
Thank you karen and her family for such a wonderful time

5.0 / 10.0
Villa was as described and kept in a very good condition. The pools are both very well maintained. We were a group of 12 and the property did not feel small in any way. The kitchen is well equipped for those who like to self cater (we do). The bedrooms are all very nice all with air condition units.
The owners are lovely people (thank you John & Karen) who are only too happy to help you plan your stay.
The villa is appointed on a quiet residential street and just outside Mellieha. There are shops nearby for you to buy groceries. Try the local bakeries which serve up lovely breads and pastries.
In my opinion the villa is situated on the best part of the island - Gozo is closeby there are some lovely small beaches also nearby (there aren't many beaches on the Southern side of the island). The ancient capital of Mdina is closeby and well worth a visit. Valleta is definitely worth spending a day and I would suggest taking the local buses (they are frequent and clean) as parking in Valleta is very tricky.
Stay at this villa is recommended. You will not be disappointed.

We booked this villa for my girlfriends birthday, as wanted a private pool and this was ideal.
The location is good as it is near the main high street but too close, so more quiet.
Karen met us at the villa and drove us round to show us the town amenities and the beach location.
We had an issue with the wifi not working and this was resolved quickly and it felt like any issue that could arise would be dealt with promptly.
Karen was kind enough to collect a birthday cake I ordered from a bakery in the town and when we got back from a day out, the cake was there waiting for a birthday surprise.
I would definately look to stay here again.

Villa Sunny Side was a perfect place for our family of 10 (2 grandparents, 4 parents and 4 children 7,4,3,&1).
We arrived to be met by Karen's mom and shown around the very well equipped house. Everything was as we expected and listed on the Home Away Site. The double pool and surrounding area was terrific. Each day (11 days) we went off for sight-seeing, touring and adventures and we loved coming back for some time around the pool. Although it was early April, and the pools were cool .... the kids loved playing in the shallow water and we loved the recreation time letting them burn off some steam. Several, but not all, the adults were in t he large pool which was fairly warm by the end of our stay! But at this time, we mostly sat in the sun and read with a glass of wine while the kids played.
A couple of times, we had to contact Karen as we North Americans were unfamiliar with some of the technicalities, but her dad, John was over immediately and helped us out. Further, John often dropped by to clean the pool ...and drop off fresh strawberries from his garden and some fine home-made wine.
The grocery store at the top of the street had everything we needed; the fish-market further up the street was also terrific and the owner cleaned our fish and gave preparation suggestions. Also the two lemon trees on the property were a hit with the kids and they made lemonade several times.
All in all, Villa Sunny Side was a hit with everyone; we were comfortable (and lots of bathrooms) ...had space for both communal living and for privacy as well.
Thanks yo Karen and her family for a VERY enjoyable stay!!!

We loved staying at this Villa! We loved relaxing by the private pool, grilling, and having access to a beach in a 15 minute walk. Very clean and perfect for a big group. Also a quick walk to the grocery store. Very nice owners. We would stay here again.
