About us
Hosting Malta, one home at a time
The Nauru Apartments began in 2016 with one apartment in Sliema, a refurbished townhouse flat a few streets back from the promenade. Visitors arriving in Malta — remote workers, families, language students, and travellers staying longer than a hotel makes sense for — kept asking the same question: where can we stay that actually feels like a home? We decided to be the answer.
The name is a nod to our founders’ years living and working on the Pacific island of Nauru before settling in Malta — the same island hospitality, brought to the Mediterranean.
Today we manage 79 homes across 4 island destinations, from seafront apartments in Sliema and St Julian’s to townhouses inside Valletta’s bastions and farmhouse retreats on Gozo, and in recent years we have grown to Paphos, Madeira and Tenerife. Every property is owned by a local family or landlord and looked after by our small local teams.
We are not a global platform and we do not want to be. We keep things simple: honest photos, clear pricing with cleaning and taxes shown up front, and a real person you can call when you land. When you book direct with us, more of what you pay stays with the local families who own these homes.

Why Malta
Malta packs an improbable amount into a small stretch of Mediterranean — some 300 days of sunshine a year, swimmable sea from spring to late autumn, and layers of history from megalithic temples to the honey-stone bastions of Valletta. Mornings can start with coffee on a Sliema balcony and end with a short ferry across to Gozo, where the pace drops and the countryside opens up. It rewards the curious. We think the best way to experience it is to stay somewhere that feels like a home rather than a lobby.
