Our first but not last visit to Gozo.

suse1 Ireland
Review Submitted: November 15, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
The villa is lovely and full of character, looks just as it is on the photos. Lots of space, and very traditional. It is over three floors,so not good for elderly/disabled.Furnishings and kitchen equipment etc. adequate. The location is good, but a car is definitely needed. Parking is not a problem. Directions for finding the property once in the locality were not great,and arrangements for collecting the key did not work out, we ended up hanging around and having to ring the housekeeper, would have been difficult if we had had no phone!! A nice welcome pack of basics was provided.The negative side was the overall cleanliness ( not thorough, kitchen particularly) and poor quality bed sheets and towels. There was a problem with hot water, which was fairly promptly sorted.A few lights did not work and the bathroom on the lower floor was out of order, which was a disappointment and inconvenient for the people sleeping down there. The pool is small but very pretty. Local attractions are interesting,people very friendly and mostly english speaking . Some good resteraunts nearby.There is loads to see on the island, none of it very far away. Ferry to malta convenient and easy. would definitely go back, but possibly not to that villa.

The place to relax

Mike and Kiki Sweden
Review Submitted: September 8, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2007
We have stayed at this house two times and we must say that the house brings a relaxing and comfortable feeling. The first time we was there, we almost felt like we had been taken into a movie with all those big rooms with so much hight to the roofs and the mixture with the old a new influences that the house contains.
We highly recommend this house and the landlords as well as the housekeeper are really nice people who helps you with anything you might need or miss.
We also reccomend to have a car so you can travel around the beatiful island of Gozo.

THE place to relax

Sissa Germany
Review Submitted: August 31, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
I've stayed at this house every year at least twice since 2005 and look forward to going there every single time. The property is kept clean and welcoming and is my number one spot to relax and recharge my batteries. Over the years the owners have updated and exchanged the furniture etc. which has improved the value for money greatly. The owners always contact me after my stay and ask for feedback and I have seen many of my suggestions become reality.



The friendly housekeeper lives 3 doors down and has so far solved all problems (e. g. missing glasses or towels) within less than 24 hours.



The house is situated in a quiet street with ample parking for those who rent a car. The beautiful Ramla Bay is a 20 minute walk away if you don’t mind the steep hill. Otherwise you can reach it by car within 5 minutes. The capital Victoria can be reached within 10 minutes by car and offers great shopping possibilities and sightseeing opportunities that should not be missed especially the view from the Citadela.

Lovely house and surroundings

Review Submitted: August 4, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
This is a lovely converted farmhouse that is spacious and has a decent sized pool. The accomodation is listed as having 3 bathrooms and this is what we expected, however, on arrival we discovered one of the bathrooms was completely out of use and obviously had been for some time.The kitchen had plenty of crockery, utensils etc but it was not especially clean when compared with other holiday accomodation we have stayed in and we needed to wash everything before using it.
All in all we had a lovely week and would definitely return to Gozo but would probably not go back to this accomodation as although the house was lovely, we were disappointed with the kitchen.
I would recommend you hire a car if staying here, especially in the summer, as the heat made the walk to the beach unbearable.
Owner's Response: I am happy that these guests found the property spacious and the pool great. We do make a great effort to keep the gardens in good shape. This is a truly old property expertly converted. The comments about the kitchen came as a surprise and the guests should have brought this to the attention of the housekeeper immediately. We have also taken action from our end.
Our certificate of customer care are the number of families that keep coming back year after year.
