Doubletree By Hilton Malta

Dolmen Hotel Malta is an all-inclusive resort in Bugibba, on the northern coast of Malta. It's just steps away from a sandy beach and has three pools open in the summer. One of these has a swim-up bar, which is available from late spring to mid-autumn. Set in an area popular with tourists, the hotel is a short stroll from Bugibba Water Park.

If you're looking to unwind, the hotel has a spa and wellness centre that offers beauty treatments. It's also home to a whirlpool and sauna, as well as a heated indoor pool. The outdoor sports centre offers you the chance to go water skiing and wakeboarding or jet skiing. Other daily activities, including table tennis and arranged walks, are on hand if you want to stay active. The kids’ club caters for children aged 5-12. While guests 18+ who like a game of Blackjack or Roulette can’t miss the onsite Casino.

A buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in the Menhir. There are also three a la carte restaurants, where the chefs carefully prepare specialities. Enjoy succulent meat from Carvv Steakhouse. That is if the aroma of freshly grilled seafood from Batubulan Sunset doesn’t draw you in first, while a variety of different pasta dishes are on offer at Oracle Casino. From morning until late, alcoholic drinks and juices are served at the cafe, which also offers tea and sandwiches in the afternoon. Evening entertainment takes place several nights a week, and there's an international kids' club and a children's pool at the beach club for younger guests.

Rooms at the hotel are air-conditioned and have a balcony, satellite TV, tea/coffee making facilities and a minibar. Upgrade to a Seaview room and you’ll be rewarded with a breathtaking view over St. Paul’s Bay. For a panoramic postcard image from a huge window, choose the Seaview Suite, which also includes a sofa, private patio and bathrobes.

The nearest beach is 200m away from the hotel. Bugibba neighbours the coastal village of St Paul's Bay. The centre of the area is steps from the hotel and is home to English-style pubs and family-friendly restaurants. Sliema, with its 18th century fort, can be accessed via a local bus (which stops outside the hotel) or by hire car. As can Valletta, the capital city of Malta, which is a popular choice for its preserved medieval architecture. The main attractions include the 16th century St John's Co-Cathedral, the National Museum of Archeology and the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
