The AAA Mint Villa is a delightful first class villa built in a traditional
Gozitan style in the tranquil village of Xewkija, a 10-minute walk from the
pebbly beach of Mgarr ix-Xini and the dramatic cliffs of Ta' Cenc. You enter
from a narrow alley into the AAA Mint Villa's private courtyard. The villa itself
has a spacious open-plan lounge/diner, beautifully furnished with a rattan
sofa and chairs, and a superb oak kitchen with verde granite worktops. The
huge verandah, which opens off the dining area, has a great view over the
swimming pool (10 x 5.5m) and beyond to the surrounding fields with their
almond, carob and fig trees, fennel and prickly pears. There is a 21"
stereo-sound colour TV, Pay Phone, optional washing machine, and a fire-place.
A built-in barbeque is near the private swimming pool.
There are two bedrooms on the ground floor, one has a
double bed and an en suite shower room, the other has three single beds. There
is also a separate bathroom. A traditional stone staircase leads from the
living room up to an airy landing with a double bed and opens onto the large
roof terrace. It can sleep 7 persons comfortably.
A short walk from AAA Mint Villa leads down the valley of Mgarr ix-Xini, which
finally opens out to an inlet. The valley itself looks as if has been cut into
the land by an invisible hand. At various places over-looking the valley,
trough-like depressions are carved in solid ground, rectangular and square. A
report in 1946 described them as "troughs of unknown antiquity".
Availability and prices on request. Maid service once weekly. Early booking is

Bicycle/car hire is recommended. Transfer to and from your accommodation

time. You will be greeted at the airport and transferred straight to AAA Mint Villa.
