We were lucky enough to stay at Lilian & Joe's house in Qala, Gozo. The house was perfect for us - full of charm, with every amenity we needed.

Lilian & Joe picked us up after we docked from the ferry in Mgarr (very sweet of them) and showed us around a bit on the way up to the house.

The house is located on a quiet street, but still close enough to the town center to dine at a restaurant (we loved D Bar) or grab anything you need from the market, pharmacy, or baker.

It is very easy to catch the bus to Mgarr if you'd like to go to the Blue Lagoon. Additionally, you can walk to Hondoq ir-Rummien, another lovely local beach.

The house itself is gorgeous, and 400 years old! We cooled off in the jacuzzi, washed our laundry, and enjoyed the comfortable bed after long days in the sun.

Lil and Joe were incredibly welcoming, left us with many pamphlets for local restaurants and attractions, and were easily reachable if we needed anything at all.

At the end of the trip, we didn't want to leave! Highly, highly recommended host and house. Can't wait to come back! :)
