From Historic Villages to Coastal Retreats: Finding Your Ideal Rental House in Malta

In Malta, there are no specific restrictions on foreigners renting properties. As long as you are an EU National or a third country national in possession of a long term visa, you’re eligible to lease residential accommodation for your own occupancy.

There is a wide variety of Malta rental properties to choose from including apartments, penthouses, houses and maisonettes. These come in different sizes and finishes to suit your individual requirements. Many of them also come furnished, but if you need your own furnishings, you’ll be able to find rentals that are unfurnished too.

If you’re after a modern lifestyle, then consider apartment-style units in developments such as Portomaso and Tigne Point. These are located in high-demand areas of the island and offer a range of amenities to residents. Alternatively, for a more tranquil experience you can move further north to Mellieha or Naxxar. These towns are less busy with tourists and white-collar workers and offer a more traditional Mediterranean lifestyle.
