Location! Location! Location!
Rose and Ray's beautiful apartment is in the ideal location for visiting Gozo. Sitting on the edge of Mgarr Harbor, you can watch the ferries and fishing boats as they come in and out of the harbor - delightful.
The modern, spacious, and spotlessly clean flat is 3-minutes from the ferry terminal and a bus depot. From there you can take a bus to any part of Gozo. If you want to go to Malta, ferries cross the channel day and night. You don't need a car, driving and parking are chaotic. Public transportation is inexpensive, efficient, and safe.
Several restaurants are steps from the front door. All are excellent, and as with all of Gozo, very affordable.
Take a short walk to the village of Ghajnsielem for a well stocked market. The store has a deli counter, fresh produce section, a butcher, and an excellent liquor department. Be sure to try the fresh bread and cheese. Both are a real taste of Gozo.
We used the apartment kitchen to prepare many of our meals during our 3-week stay. It is equipped with all you need to make simple meals.
If you are a walker, you'll find walking guides in the flat that will take you to parts of Gozo only accessible on foot. I also suggest Yippie Tours, Tuk Tuk tour. The pickup point is in the harbor.
We loved our hosts and their charming apartment. We give both our highest recommendation and plan to return for another long-term stay this year.
