One of the best B&B that I've ever been. Great location - around 700m to the city center, great standard, lots of places to park (near by the hospital), great view and also the most nice owner I've ever met - Giancarlo. He showed us how to explore the island and where to go in what time to avoid the crowds. I would definitely recommend this accomodation in Gozo.

Nothing! Everything was amazing.

Giancarlo is a really kind and open hearted person. He was kind enough to offer us an adaptor and made sure we were not missing anything. The terrace was spacious and nice to chill in the evening with a stunning view of the citadel.

The bed was a little small for a couple. I think it was 140cm. For side sleepers it can get tricky. The many automated texts with many rules. E.g. not using the kitchen. Giancarlo wants to avoid misunderstandings. I understand that but it can give the wrong impression if you have not met him in person yet.

I can only say wonderful things about this accommodation. The owner Giancarlo is fantastic; even before my arrival, he reached out to provide me with all the essential details for reaching the apartment. He even went the extra mile by personally picking me up from the port. His insights on local landmarks, must-see attractions, and top dining spots were very appreciated. The room itself is beautiful with a lovely traditional touch. But the real gem is the terrace, affording a direct, breathtaking view of the Cittadella. As for the location, it couldn't be more ideal – just a leisurely 15-minute walk to the heart of the city and the main bus station, offering access to all the connections. Opting for this accommodation was a fantastic choice, and a wonderful experience.

The property La Fenice by Giancarlo is a great place for a successful holiday on Gozo. Helpful, friendly and contactable landlord Giancarlo. The stylish Maltese interior, the large terrace and the 2 adorable Chihuahua guarantee a holiday atmosphere. Clean and tidy. The property is located on one of the main roads but is quiet and peaceful before the holiday season. Easy access to bus stops, shops and restaurants. Shared living room allows you to spend evenings together with other guests over a glass of local wine. An ideal base for exploring the whole island

The Property was Clean, Well Equipped and Giancarlo was a superb host and bent over backwards to offer us advice of where to go both in Gozo and Malta as well as where to eat and avoid. The Outside Balcony was a good place to chill in the evening with some drinks and good views of the nearby Citadel. Location wise it's good and located quite near to the bus terminal and a small shopping centre. There are a selection of Resturants, Bars and a supermarket a few minutes walk away which is good is you want somewhere quieter than the main centre of Victoria which is still very accessible from here.

There is nothing really to say here. It's worth noting that this is a B&B and not a Hotel. This wasn't a problem for us but if you're new to B&Bs it involves negotiation on times with the host (Giancarlo has to run a retail business). We missed our meeting time as we got on the wrong bus but even still Giancarlo was accommodating offering us somewhere we could leave our bags for a few hours if we wished until he could next meet up with us.

Giancarlo made this stay a most memorable one. His hospitality and sharing of knowledge and providing recommendations of the island was invaluable. The view from the balcony was even better at night. His place is cleaner than spotless. I was very impressed with his commitment to water and electrical conservation. The only item that could be improved would be the softness of the bed. The bed was very firm. But...it did not prevent me from sleeping and i slept very well. Saving the best till last...parking! There was free parking available near by so I did not have to park on the street. I would 110% recommend this stay

We've never met a host like Giancarlo. His commitment and hospitality are on a different level. The house is clean and neat, and when we needed something, Giancarlo organized it within 5 minutes. We landed on Gozo Island by accident, but the time we spent there was wonderful. The house is located in the middle of the main city, so it's very easy to get everywhere. We highly recommend following Giancarlo's recommendations. Rating: 10/10.

Giancarlo is a great host. I liked how you have your privacy but a bright conversation with him is there if you decide to. He helped us out with advice on what to visit and even arranged for us to have our luggage handled while on ferry to Blue Lagoon. The view on the terrace is amazing. We always decided to take away food and eat it there at night, because no restaurants could match it.

There is no TV în our room but în the end that was more of a blessing.

Friendly host Giancarlo and he gave us many tips about the trekking trails in Gozo. The location is very near to the Gozo terminal bus station where it is convenient to explore around. Terrace is big with a beautiful wooden swing and overlooks citadella. Bathroom is spacious, but the heater might take a while to heat up which is understandable in Malta as all houses require some time to heat up the water to shower. Clean house and nice gesture from the host to give us kitkat every morning to boost up our stamina for the trekking 😉. Keep it up!

Terrace view really makes time stop😍. The location is super convenient - close to Victoria's central bus station(meaning easy access to any direction and buses are empty which matters a lot in Malta as buses do not stop once full). Awesome foodstore(in a shopping mall) which is open till at least 9pm is 5mins walk - with highest quality veggies and local salads and cheeses available. Plenty of choice for vegetarians and vegans! Local minivans selling super local sandwiches and pastry(that one only Sundays) are also 5mins away(stop by!), on a way to bus stop-you see no tourists there, just locals buying sandwisches/ftiras before, during and after work. Worth mentioning - you get your own mini fridge for the stay in the kitchen area. But the key part of the stay was Giancarlo himself - he made us feel like home every day, greeting him every evening and talking was the cherry on top for the trip. It is what every airbnb type home used to offer and now the tradition is hard to find. Giancarlo is very fast to respond to any inquiry and was super helpful. Highest recommendations for the apartment and host.
