Private jet travellers to Malta often head first to Valletta, the baroque capital and UNESCO-listed city known for its historic fortifications, boutique hotels, and luxury yacht harbour. Just 20 minutes from the airport, St. Julian’s & Sliema stand out as the island’s lifestyle hub, offering seafront resorts, fine dining, and vibrant marinas that blend business with leisure.
