Which is the actual date of construction of the palace? In ARX Occasional Papers 5, Dr. Stephen C. Spiteri states that the palace was built in the 19th century. I tend to agree with this, firstly because I consider Spiteri to be a reliable source, and secondly because had the structure actually been built in 1675, it would have most probably been listed in NICPMI and there would probably be more available sources about it.

The Zammitello Palace is an ornate architectural folly, built in imitation of the Tower of London. Although it resembles a fortification, according to military architecture expert Dr. Stephen C. Spiteri, it is "entirely useless from a defensive point of view". It was built by the Sant Cassia family in the early nineteenth century as a honeymoon retreat, although a few sources claim that it dates back to 1675. The palace's owner, Francis Sant Cassia, was murdered there on 27 October 1988, and the family sold the building soon afterwards. It is now used as a wedding venue.I think the 1675 claim (regardless if it is true or not) deserves to be mentioned in the article.
