Outdoors, two heated pools (including an infinity pool with wide-open views over Malta’s landscapes) provide elegant relaxation throughout the year. Service is warm yet polished, and the ambience remains peaceful, suiting couples and solo travellers seeking space to unwind.

Sustainability Initiatives & Responsible Tourism
Verdala is proactive when it comes to sustainable hospitality. They set a high standard for eco-conscious practices in Malta by promoting recycling throughout the hotel and replacing single-use soaps with refillable dispensers to reduce waste.
Energy and water consumption are carefully monitored through advanced management systems, supported by energy-efficient lighting, boilers and kitchen equipment. You’re also invited to join the linen and towel reuse programme, conserving water, energy and chemicals.

Wellness Services
A holistic approach is taken at Verdala, integrating movement, nutrition, mindfulness and restorative practices to support lasting wellbeing. For example, you can begin your journey with a ‘Welcome Consultation’, where a credentialed specialist crafts a plan tailored to your wellness goals.
Or why not explore ‘Lifestyle Coaching’? This works to transform your daily habits into sustainable routines, focusing on nutrition, movement, stress management and work-life balance.

For targeted treatments, the ‘Reverse Signature Facial’ mixes advanced molecular technology with traditional massage to lift and rejuvenate mature skin, while the ‘Scalp Treatment’ uses ancient oil-pouring techniques and jade comb therapy to ease tension and induce profound relaxation.
