The Xara Collection has announced the opening of Palazzino Belvedere in Malta’s Mdina. The restored 17th-century palace has traditional Maltese tiles adorning the floor and honey-colored stone walls.
Palazzino Belvedere can sleep three adults or two adults and two children. It comprises two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, dining room, internal courtyard, corridor kitchen and basement area, plus three terraces and two balconies, all with views overlooking the Maltese Islands and the streets of Mdina.
