Promoting a resort - or in Malta's case an island - as top end, upmarket and the place where the wealthy need to be can have very real financial benefits for a destination where tourism plays an important part in the economy.
Sliema, one of the main towns in Malta, is already a well known destination for spa holidays, with worldwide media often reporting of celebrities staying at the hotels, while travel writers often feature the town in travel features.
Not to be outdone another Malta hotel in Qawra, towards the north of the island, has just spent over a million Euros to refurbish its facilities.
Qawra is close to St Paul's Bay, Bugibba and Mellieha - all popular tourist destinations.
St. Paul's Bay is the ideal vacation spot for tourists who like some variety. Whether they want to take a meandering stroll around the harbour and look at the Mediterranean, to indulge in a coffee and something sweet, or simply to relax and take in some rays, St. Paul's Bay is a good Malta holidays area and has a range of hotels.
For eating out, St. Paul's Bay has a good choice of restaurants. The area is well appointed by many tourist-friendly cafes and restaurants. For a taste of more upscale dining there is Old St. Paul's Bay, where there are generally upmarket eateries, and all around the bay there are many good fish restaurants that serve up some of the best fish that Malta has to offer. For a little window shopping, tourists can take a stroll around the many shops located in the old village.
For a taste of the more modern side of the St. Paul's Bay region, there is the seafront at Bugibba, the hub of nightlife in the area. Here, there are a selection of trendy boutiques and restaurants. When the sun sets, Malta can go down market as well as up market and there are karaoke bars in Bugibba, but there is also the casino and a cinema close to the local Malta hotels.
Malta is also very rich in history, with some artifacts pre-dating Egypt's pyramids. Hotel guests staying in Malta will enjoy the variety of treasures and artifacts on display in Malta's museums, as well as the normal tourist entertainment.
Many of Malta's historic churches still stand and are used for worship today. The gardens and historic architecture on Malta and its sister islands, Gozo and Comino, are popular for day trips, and many of the Malta hotels are pick up points for companies who organise excursions.
But whatever the reason for choosing Malta for a holiday, the hotels are stepping up a star to make tourists want to come back for a second and third visit.
