Young inMalta isn’t just about spending a few weeks in Malta. It’s about living here. And the inMalta Campus is the place we’ve chosen for you to do it. During your stay, it becomes your home, the place where your days begin and end, where you meet the other participants and where you can enjoy a real experience of living away from home as a young adult.
Staying on a Campus means living in a young, international environment, very different from a traditional hotel stay. You don’t just have a room to come back to in the evening: you have spaces and services around you that become part of your everyday life, as well as plenty of opportunities to meet other people. You can start your day with breakfast, meet up with the other participants, decide what to do in the afternoon and come back in the evening knowing that you all share the same home base. The Campus therefore becomes an integral part of the Young inMalta experience: communal spaces, a swimming pool, shops and restaurants around the main square.
During Young inMalta, you stay directly on Campus. The accommodation is designed to provide a comfortable and functional environment, but above all to give you the opportunity to live alongside other young people. Sharing spaces also means sharing part of your everyday life: meeting in the morning, making plans for the day, going shopping, eating together or simply stopping for a chat before going out. It’s precisely these seemingly ordinary moments that turn a stay into an experience. You can choose a single, twin or triple room.
Young inMalta doesn’t include traditional full board with breakfast, lunch and dinner served every day at fixed times. We’ve chosen an option that is better suited to young adults aged 18 to 25, giving you greater independence when it comes to organising your meals too. Breakfast is included, while for your other meals you’ll receive pocket money to spend at the large supermarket on Campus. Each floor has a large kitchen that you can use freely at any time of the day. You’ll also receive your own set of plates and cutlery to keep in your room.
Having a budget for groceries means having a choice. You can decide what to buy according to your tastes, organise meals with the other participants, prepare something together or manage your meals independently. You don’t necessarily have to eat the same thing every day, in the same place and at the same time. Doing your own shopping and deciding how to organise your meals may seem like a small detail, but it’s part of the independence that defines Young inMalta. You’re away from home, you’re between 18 and 25, and for a few weeks you’re also taking responsibility for a small part of your everyday life.
A meal can become much more than just another part of the day. Shopping together, deciding what to prepare or sitting down to eat with the other participants are all opportunities to spend time together and get to know each other better. And when you’re surrounded by people of different nationalities or your conversation mates, even a simple everyday moment can become another opportunity to speak English.
If you want to go out for dinner one evening, try a restaurant, grab something to eat with friends or stop at a bar or café, you’re free to do so. Young inMalta is designed for adults, and we don’t want to organise your day around the fixed times of a full-board programme. Your pocket money helps you manage your everyday grocery shopping, while you decide how to organise the rest. This is Malta too. This is freedom too.
The most important thing is that the Campus doesn’t become the place where you spend your entire holiday. It should be your home in Malta and the place you set off from every day. Go out, head to the beach, meet your conversation mates, discover the island, enjoy Malta by night and then come back to Campus. The next day, you start all over again. Because Young inMalta doesn’t simply want to give you somewhere to sleep. It wants to give you a place from which to start experiencing Malta.
Where you live during your stay is an important part of the Study inMalta experience. Not every student is looking for the same thing, so it wouldn’t make sense to offer everyone the same solution. Some people want comfort and privacy, some prefer to share everyday life with other students, while others want to experience more of the local lifestyle. That’s why with Study inMalta you can choose between a hotel, an apartment and a host family.
Your choice of accommodation depends on the kind of experience you want to have, the length of your stay, the area where you’ll be attending your course, the level of independence you’re looking for and, of course, your budget. We help you consider all these factors together, also taking into account the English language school you’ve chosen. The aim isn’t simply to find you a room. It’s to find the accommodation that fits best with your stay in Malta.
If you want your own space and prefer a more independent option, a hotel could be the right choice. It’s particularly suitable if you’re looking for comfort, services and greater privacy during your stay. Some of the properties we offer also have accommodation with kitchenette facilities, an interesting option if you want to combine hotel services with the freedom to prepare some of your own meals. A hotel allows you to experience your course and Malta at your own pace: you go to school, spend the rest of the day however you like and return to your accommodation whenever you want.
If you’re looking for greater independence, an apartment may be the most natural choice. Living in an apartment means having a daily routine that is more similar to actually living on the island: you do your own shopping, prepare your meals and organise your schedule freely. When the apartment is shared with other students, the experience also becomes an important opportunity to socialise. The people you share your accommodation with may come from different countries, and English can become the common language at home too. The lesson ends, but the international experience continues.
Staying with a host family offers a completely different experience. It doesn’t simply mean having a room in someone’s home: it means spending part of your stay in a Maltese family environment. It’s a particularly interesting option if you want greater contact with local life and more opportunities to use English in everyday situations. A conversation in the morning, a question during the day or a moment shared around the table can all become additional opportunities to listen to and speak English outside school.
Meal arrangements depend on the accommodation you choose. Hotels may offer different options depending on the property selected. In an apartment, on the other hand, you have maximum independence: you can do your own shopping, cook and organise your meals according to your own schedule, or choose to eat out. With a host family, options including some meals may be available, depending on the arrangement you choose. This is another aspect we consider when creating your package, so that we can find the combination that best suits your habits and your budget.
One of the advantages of a stay designed for students aged 18 to 25 is not having to organise every day around a fixed schedule. One day you can come back after your course and prepare something to eat. Another day you might decide to have lunch with your classmates. In the evening, you can try a restaurant, grab something at a pub or organise dinner with the new friends you’ve met at school. The way you eat and live in your accommodation also becomes part of the experience.
When we choose your accommodation, we don’t only consider the type of property. Location matters too. The school you’ll attend, transport connections, the area and the kind of lifestyle you want during your stay all contribute to the decision. That’s why school and accommodation aren’t treated as two completely separate elements: they need to work together.
There’s no single right answer for everyone. Choose a hotel if comfort, privacy and independence are your priorities. Choose an apartment if you want greater independence and like the idea of living and, potentially, sharing everyday life with other students. Choose a host family if you want greater contact with Maltese life and more opportunities to use English at home too. If you’re not sure which one to choose, we’ll help you understand which option best suits your needs.
Whatever option you choose, your accommodation should be the starting point of your experience, not the centre of it. Study inMalta brings you to Malta to study English, meet people and discover a new country. Your accommodation is the home you return to at the end of the day. Everything that happens between the moment you leave and the moment you come back will be the part of Malta that you create for yourself
