Hi Everyone! My Husband(48),my daughter(19) and I(42) are moving to Malta at the end of the year(2012)...either in November or December. We are wondering where we should look to let an apartment. My husband is a Systems & Network Engineer in the IT field and my daughter is a Licensed Cosmetologist. We want to live on the sea side with a nice view,but not in the middle of a city where its noisy. But yet we want to be close enough to the city to go shopping,have entertainment and close enough that my daughter can go to clubs and make new friends. Someone had suggest Mellieha,which sounds like a lovely place,but it seems by reading on the forums it can take an hour to drive to Sliema? Is that right? If so,that is too far out. Another suggestion was a place called Marsascala,but its hard to tell if that is what we are looking for or not? Do you think it could fit for what we are looking for? We were also told to stay away from the Bugibba/Qawra area for living since it has become a bit of a low class area lately...I don't know what that is exactly suppose to mean,but i guess i will stay away from those two areas till i get there and figure that out for myself...but its a shame because what i could find on those 2 areas seem to suggest its nicely located and could possibly fit what we are looking for. We were also told to stay away from Paceville due to it being very noisy! So,we are looking for atleast partial quiet,on the sea with a view,but close to the city where there is shopping,entertainment and jobs! Thank you all for taking time to read my post. I really could use some help.
