Resort Experience:
I had a great time in Malta. However, this Club Salina timeshare was not up to the four-star standard it has received. The room was dirty. I don't think the floors had been mopped in years. The couch was at least 10 years old and extremely uncomfortable. The beds were hard twin size beds. The stay was topped off with a nice cockroach running around the kitchen. The only saving grace was the very powerful air conditioning units in the living room and bedroom. I didn't complain too much while I was there because I was only in the room for six to eight hours a day, and I was sleeping during that time.

Gozo Museum

Activity

I went to Gozo on a Monday and most things were closed. When I arrived at the port, I took the bus to Victoria and just walked around the town. There is a citadel there and within the walls is a beautiful church and a bunch of old cannons along the ramparts. Tucked along the side of the rampart facing the town of Victoria is the small museum.

I was very impressed by the small collection of artifacts. There was an old Roman anchor that I had not seen before. I heard later that they pull these things out of the water all the time. Interesting. There were several Roman inscribed tablets and a very nice headless statue. The statue is very impressive considering the small size of the Gozo province during Roman times. Worth a visit.
