The Phoenicia Malta's Bastion Pool, Bar & Restaurant is this summer's definitive destination for elegant outdoor dining and poolside lounging, with seasonal menus, live music and exclusive wellness packages.

The Phoenicia Malta has launched the 2025 summer season with a vibrant new menu, weekly live music and relaxed day-to-night dining for both hotel guests and locals at Bastion Pool, Bar & Restaurant.

Making the most of the Maltese summertime, Bastion Pool, Bar & Restaurant sits at the edge of the hotel's seven-acre gardens, boasting a bar, dining area and an infinity pool set against the backdrop of Valletta's bastion walls, with stunning views stretching out to the harbour.

Open daily, with extended hours on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays for the popular Nights Under the Stars, Bastion Pool, Bar & Restaurant is now welcoming guests for another season of sunshine, flavour and understated luxury, with an extended programme designed to elevate every moment.

Throughout summer, Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 7 until 10pm will see the return of the popular BBQ. This refined take on alfresco dining features Maltese antipasto, live grilling and delectable desserts such as coconut and minted chocolate delice, an orange and cinnamon crème brûlée or imqaret with vanilla ice cream.

By day, Bastion Pool, Bar & Restaurant serves a full lunch menu, with a host of mouth-watering Mediterranean-inspired sushi and seafood platters, seasonal salads and signature cocktails, all available poolside or at shaded garden tables. Wednesday nights also offer an à la carte dinner service until 10pm, which guests can enjoy paired with live music from the Jazz Quartet with Dominic Galea, amid the ambience of a balmy summer evening spent in five-star style, overlooking Marsamxett Harbour as the sun sets.

The weekly entertainment line-up between 7.30 and 10pm also includes Jimmy Bartolo and Friends on Tuesdays, as well as Acoustic Evenings with Amelia every Thursday.

Those seeking summer revitalisation can meanwhile opt for the hotel's outdoor spa package, which includes a 50-minute Harmonising Massage in the hotel's gorgeous gardens, use of the infinity pool and a food and beverage credit for Bastion Pool, Bar & Restaurant - the ultimate self-care experience, with a luxury twist.
