San Anton holidays

Holidays to San Anton get you entry to a region packed with history, conveniently located near Mdina and Valletta.

Ancient and modern

San Anton's part of the collection of orchards, towns and villages that make up Malta's Attard region. Alongside the historic ruins of Villa Bologna – a frozen-in-time country house – the area offers chances to buy authentic local ceramics and perfumes. To get stuck in with local customs, sign up for cocktail-making classes and food tastings.

Green scenes, small screens

The area around San Anton's seriously lush, and visitors can see that in full at Ta'Qali National Park. For even more stately sights, wander around the San Anton Gardens' citrus and avocado groves – you might recognise some of the spaces from Game of Thrones.

Dashing daytrips

The 8th-century city of Mdina's ancient walls are only a 15-minute drive away, and hide spectacular architecture and artisan shopping within. People have settled in the Attard region for millennia, so visits of the wider region are packed with haunting tombs, tours of catacombs and pretty churches.
