Naxxar is clean,welcoming and the people are friendly and helpful.
Review by visitor
Naxxar is a typical medium sized hilltop village/town consisting of an older core of centuries old winding narrow roads, fully of limestone built picturesque townhouses close to the imposing church, supplemented by more recent construction in the outskirts. It's size means that all conveniences may be found within a half mile radius of the church, such as supermarkets, chemists, doctors' clinics, ironmongers, typical village band and political clubs (bars, all serving very affordable beer and wine!) and a couple of decent restaurants, wine bars, pizza/kebab places, and a Maltese "Pastizzeria" serving the must-try hot Maltese ricotta-cheese "cheesecakes" and crushed-pea "peacakes" apart from other typical take-away savoury snacks, in the main available for pennies.
Naxxar also offers the noble and opulent Palazzo Parisio which is open to visitors (at a charge), several other historic sights in the vicinity, and just down the road is Mosta with it's very well visited Mosta Dome (church).
Naxxar is only around 10 minutes' drive to Sliema and St Julians, the nearest beaches/seaside towns also boasting plenty of nightlife and restaurant/entertainment options. Historic Mdina (Medina) is literally visible from Naxxar and practically anywhere in Malta is within 20-25 minutes maximum drive, thus it is an excellent base from which to explore the Maltese Islands.
