Malta’s property market has long been an attractive investment avenue, boasting a strong track record of capital appreciation, high demand for rentals, and a thriving tourism sector that fuels the short-term rental economy. As the island continues to evolve into a premier Mediterranean destination, the need for short-term accommodation grows, creating lucrative opportunities for investors. In this dynamic landscape, Stays.mt, one of the sub-brands and solely serviced by Dhalia Real Estate Services, is emerging as a powerful ally for property owners seeking to maximise returns with minimal hassle. Tourism remains one of Malta’s economic cornerstones, and with over 2.8 million tourists visiting in 2023 alone, the demand for quality short-term accommodation is at an all-time high. While hotels continue to perform well, a significant shift has occurred in favour of alternative lodging, especially self-catering apartments, boutique homes, and unique local stays. This shift presents a golden opportunity for property investors. A well-managed short-let property in a prime location – such as Valletta, Sliema, St. Julian’s, or Gozo – can outperform long-term rentals in terms of yield. However, with higher potential returns also come higher demands on time, service quality, and legal compliance. That’s where Stays.mt steps in.
What is Stays.mt?
Stays.mt is a dedicated platform connecting property owners with travellers looking for short-term rentals in Malta and Gozo. Unlike international booking platforms that treat all markets the same, Stays.mt is built specifically for the Maltese Islands, offering a hyper-local approach that benefits both guests and property owners. The platform goes beyond listings. It offers a complete ecosystem of services, including property onboarding, digital marketing, guest communication, calendar optimisation, pricing strategies, maintenance coordination, and even professional photography. In essence, Stays.mt is not just a marketplace – it is a property partner designed to help investors maximise occupancy, increase returns, and streamline operations. As remote work, digital nomadism, and experience-driven travel reshape tourism, the demand for flexible, self-catering accommodation is expected to grow. Malta’s safe environment, English speaking population, and rich history make it a desirable destination year-round.
For property investors, this evolving trend points to a sustained opportunity, but also a growing need to partner with professional service providers who can keep up with industry expectations. Stays.mt provides that expertise, enabling investors to scale their short-let portfolio while delivering high guest satisfaction and excellent returns.
Final Thoughts
Stays.mt is more than just a platform – it’s a strategic partner for property investors ready to tap into Malta’s flourishing short-let market. With full-service management, local expertise, and data-backed performance strategies, it offers a smarter, stress-free way to turn your property into a high-performing asset
