If this place is available to book, DO IT. I didn’t know what to expect, but this AirBnB has got to be one of the most cosy AND affordable places I’ve ever stayed in.
Firstly, it’s very conveniently located in Marsalforn. You can take 322 from the ferry terminal to the bus stop nearby in about 30 mins, and it’s a 2-min walk to the apartment. If you’re here to dive and want to be near dive centres, all the better. It’s within 5-min walking distance to all the major ones on this part of Gozo. Second, the cleanliness… 🥺 Both the room and living room area was impeccably clean, and more impressively: the table and chairs at the balcony were also really clean and well-maintained! I genuinely just wanted to sit near the balcony every night to hear the waves crashing on the shore nearby. Lastly, safety. As a solo traveller, my primary concern was getting an AirBnB that wasn’t on streets that were not brightly lit and I can say for a fact that I never felt unsafe walking back to this place, even at night. The place is easy to find and security is tight by virtue of the electronic lock at the front door, which means less fumbling for keys at the front door.
The hostess, Laura, is really friendly and responsive. She left a hamper with snacks, water, instant coffee and some documents to introduce me to the town because I arrived late and had to check-in myself. Also, she does this really adorable thing everyday where she sends you a tip on where to visit in Marsalforn :)
Thank you for making my stay in Gozo such a wonderful one, Laura! I’ll definitely be back.
