Renting in Sliema
Sliema is one of the localities with the most registered rental contracts in Malta, according to the Housing Authority's rent register. In the Authority's H1 2024 report it is also among the localities with the highest registered rents.
Many renters in Sliema are people who moved to Malta for work. Listings often state whether the home is furnished and when it is available: use the filters to narrow by both.
