The Ultimate 3-Day Family Getaway at AX ODYCY: One of the Best Malta Resorts for Families

If you’re on the hunt for Malta resorts for families that deliver on sunshine, sea views, and seriously good vibes, then it’s time to check out the 4-star AX ODYCY Hotel in Qawra.

More than just your average hotel, AX ODYCY is an all-inclusive family resort where everyone can relax, play, explore, and reconnect, all without ever needing to leave the property. From kid-approved splashing zones to mouthwatering cocktails for adults and dreamy sea views, we’ve got everything you need for an unforgettable stay in Malta.

Want a glimpse into what you can expect when you stay with us? Here’s how a 3-day family escape could look like at one of the best family resorts in Malta.

You’ve arrived in sunny Malta! As soon as you pull up to AX ODYCY, located right on Qawra’s lively seafront promenade, it’s clear your summer escape has officially begun. When you step into the welcoming reception of our Malta all-inclusive family resort, you’ll be greeted with a friendly smile at the front desk, and after a quick, seamless check-in, your family is handed the sleek NFC card wristbands to your spacious room. This is your home base for the next few days of memory-making in Malta!

Do you unpack now? Or dive straight into holiday mode? We vote for the latter.

Chances are the kids are already begging to hit the pool. As one of the best family resorts in Malta, our spacious outdoor family pool is made for moments like this. With playful splash zones, bubbling sprinklers, and water showers at the waterpark, the kids can go wild while grown-ups lounge on sunbeds and soak up those soothing sea views with an ice-cold cocktail in hand!

After everyone’s had their fill of fun (and maybe an afternoon snooze), it’s time for dinner, and Trattoria Riccardo is calling. Located just across the street from the main hotel or accessed via a walkway tunnel, this authentic Italian spot dishes up wood-fired pizzas, homemade pastas, fresh salads, kiddie favourites, all served with breezy Mediterranean charm.

And another reason why AX ODYCY is considered one of the best family resorts in Malta is our spacious Little Italy-themed kids’ play area, filled with a ball pit, climbing frames, crawl tunnels, interactive games and more. This means the little ones stay entertained while parents sip wine and wind down while taking in the gorgeous sea views. Everyone’s happy. Everyone’s full. That’s what we call a solid start to your Maltese getaway.

Mornings at AX ODYCY start with a feast, because breakfast at Deck & Keel is not your average buffet.

As part of your all-inclusive family holiday in Malta, you’re treated to golden pastries, breakfast meats, cheeses, cereals, fruit, pancakes… the list goes on. Basically, if your family has different tastes and big appetites, you’re in the right place.

Fuelled up and ready to go? Why not ease into the day with another splash session at the pool? Claim your loungers, apply the SPF, and enjoy that beautiful sea breeze. A quick bite from the lido snack bar keeps bellies full between dips, and a cheeky stop at Cheeky Monkey Creperie (hello, refreshing ice creams and milkshakes!) is guaranteed to put smiles on little faces. It’s this type of endless variety that makes us a great Malta resort for families.

In the afternoon, hit pause with a coffee and cake moment at Espresso, our 24/7 café serving up everything from lattes to light snacks. Then, it’s time to stretch those legs and go exploring. Just a 10-minute stroll from our all-inclusive family resort, the Malta National Aquarium is the perfect afternoon adventure. With over 175 different species including fish, reptiles, molluscs, and more, your kids will be wide-eyed from start to finish.

After a big day out, it’s time to settle in for another family dinner back at our family resort in Malta. This time why not try our award-winning Cheeky Monkey Gastropub. Here, the vibe is always laid-back, lively, and full of flavour. Burgers, big salads, sharing platters and those signature cheeky cocktails (non-alcoholic options for the kiddos, of course) all make an appearance. And before heading back upstairs, don’t forget to swing by the Cheeky Monkey merch store for a fun souvenir or two. The Cheeky Monkey mascot plush toys are always total crowd-pleasers.

It’s your last full day, so let’s make the most of it. After another dreamy breakfast buffet, why not switch things up? During your final day at our Malta resort for families, let the little ones join the action-packed activities at AX ODYCY’s Kids Club. With arts, crafts, interactive games, and plenty of supervised fun led by our friendly team of animators, kids can play and make new friends in a safe and colourful space.

While the kids are having a blast, it’s the parents’ turn for a special treat. Head to the adults-only Minoa Deck on Level 11 and indulge in a little well-earned couple-time. Enjoy stunning views, quiet infinity pool areas and a relaxing dip in our Jacuzzis. Don’t worry! We’ll make sure you’re back in time for family fun part two.

Before checking out, there’s only one thing left to do and that’s soak up those last few rays at the pool. Enjoy a final splash in the family-friendly lido, it’s the perfect way to end your stay at Malta resort for families on a high note.

From splash zones to sleep-ins, buffet breakfasts to breezy dinners, and aquarium trips to kids club crafts, our all-inclusive family resort brings together everything families need for an unforgettable Mediterranean escape.

Whether you’re travelling with toddlers, tweens, or teens, our team is here to help you create a stay packed with sunshine, smiles, and sweet moments you’ll talk about long after you’re home.

So, what are you waiting for? Pack the swimsuits. Plan your three-day adventure. And get ready to discover why AX ODYCY is one of the top Malta resorts for families.
