AX ODYCY

Qawra | Malta

⭐⭐⭐⭐

 
Stylish, contemporary and set right on the Qawra seafront, AX ODYCY is Malta’s new-generation resort that blends a polished beach-club feel with proper family-friendly fun. Expect rooftop infinity pools reserved for adults, an on-site aquapark for all-action days, and far-reaching views over the Mediterranean from many of the 600 rooms and suites. With a choice of restaurants, a lively bar scene and both indoor and outdoor pools, it works just as well for couples chasing sunsets as it does for families who want everything in one place.

Think sweeping sea views, glassy rooftop infinity pools and a bold, design-led look. AX ODYCY spreads along the Qawra seafront with a mix of chilled adults-only spaces and high-energy family zones, so you can pick your pace each day. Grab a lounger by the rooftop saltwater pools, drift between the indoor pool and spa treatments, or plunge down slides at the on-site aquapark before refuelling in one of the many restaurants and bars dotted around the complex.

For couples seeking Malta’s coastal charm with grown-up rooftop lounging, or families who want aquapark thrills on the doorstep, AX ODYCY delivers the perfect balance. It’s around 50 minutes from Malta International Airport. See more Malta holidays.
