Traveler reviews
Vitalii Kapatsyna
★★★★★7 months agoA wonderful place to relax in 2026. The playground is well-zoned: there's a separate area for toddlers and an active section for older children. Parents have plenty of comfortable heated benches and good lighting for the evening. It's clean and safe."
Elaine Caruana Briffa
★★★★★2 years agoLovely playground in front of the sea at Tigne point. Play areas are split by age, with age adequate slides and swings. Area is all covered in rubber flooring rendering it pretty safe for the toddlers. Playground is kept clean and in maintained in good condition.
