Rent in Malta: Our guide to the island’s best letting agencies

Looking to rent in Malta?

One of the biggest tasks that you will likely face on coming to the islands, either on a short or long-term basis, is finding that dream property to rent in Malta that best fits both your expectations and budgetary requirements.

It is somewhat uncommon to find properties that are directly for let from the owner in Malta. Therefore, it is important to be aware of the huge variety of sources available on the internet, including Facebook pages or obscure websites, to ensure you get the best deal possible.

Facebook groups

Malta is a country where huge amounts of information is available through various Facebook groups or pages and this can therefore be a great tool for finding accommodation.

Having a number of available flats or rooms easily accessible on the same page can be a hugely convenient as a user, however, caution needs to be taken with the people that share the information on these pages and they can often be a little disorganised.

Here are a number of pages researched by the Maltalovers team that can be invaluable when looking for a place to rent in Malta:

Trusted letting agencies

If trawling through Facebook groups isn't for you, sourcing a trusted letting agency is the next port of call.

If you do decide to rent a flat with a real estate agency, it's important to consider that you will need most likely need to pay agency fees and a deposit (usually the cost of a month's rent) to the landlord to go alongside the first month's rent - meaning the up front costs can be a little steep.
