Guest Reviews
- Martine (10/5): A fairy tale - It felt like home, it isn’t a house but an original castle where every corner breaths authenticity. A warm welcome by the son Paul who gave us good advice. The rooms are unique and historic! The bed was a little small for two big people. Maybe you should place a sofa
- Ezra (7/5): Goed. - Rustige tuin, mooi zwembad. Zeer vriendelijk personeel. Wanneer je iets extra nodig hebt, zullen ze het meteen voorzien. Het bed is niet erg kwalitatief. Er was geen dagelijks vers ontbijt. De kamer was niet geluidsdicht: wanneer andere gasten ‘s avonds in de living/eetruimte dineren, hoor je alles.
- Di Capite (10/5): Home away from home - Beautiful farm house with so much character. Hosts very friendly with great advice on attractions and restaurants to visit. When we travelled, during the day there were lots of, what we think were hornets, which were swarming close to our balcony, so we did not use it as much as we would have liked.
- Zaven (10/5): -
- Thierry (9/5): Séjour parfait - Très belle demeure pleine de charme, jolie piscine et bel emplacement
- Susan (8/5): Relaxing off the beaten track. - Lovely setting, beautiful house and lovely hosts. Having generous self serve breakfast was a bonus as could eat when we pleased. Mosquitoes. This only affected one of us but mosquito net would be useful if you are allergic.
- Rachel (10/5): -
- Elena (10/5): Rare gem, highly recommended! - We absolutely enjoyed staying at Dar tal-Kaptan for our mini honeymoon in Malta <3 The owner and his son were very helpful and friendly, we appreciated a lot their attention to detail and unrivaled hospitality. The facilities were wonderful as well, with a very enjoyable sauna and pool as a special touch. The place was quite easy to reach by bus, which are not frequent in Malta but they often save you the trouble of climbing hills on the way to where you're going. We loved that the room matches its name - Tranquility Suite - because there is no noise whatsoever other than birds chirping :) The beds were very comfy, giving a good night's rest before next day's adventures. We also enjoyed having lots of space in the suite as well as a spacious terrace. Finally, the room was attentively filled with everything you need for a comfortable stay (including some nice snacks & delicious breakfast things), which was very thoughtful. Once again, we are so incredibly grateful to the hosts for making our stay in Malta an unforgettable experience! Honestly can't think of anything negative about this place, it's definitely joining the "To go again" list for us. I can just leave a note for future autumn visitors here - the pool does get a little bit cold (we were visiting in October) since it's outdoors, but for us it was still very very enjoyable as you can go in directly between sauna turns, which creates an awesome contrast, invigorating!
- Stephanie (10/5): So relaxing and beautiful, so many complementary items of food, drinks and toiletries - Beautiful furnishing, huge private suite. Near to mini market, lovely gardens, sauna and pool. Easy to get to everywhere on Gozo Nothing
- Joana (9/5): Estadia maravilhosa em Gozo, queremos voltar já! - Adorámos a casa típica com cerca de 350 anos cheia de história, carácter e linda! O Paul, nosso anfitrião, foi incrível sempre disponível para nos ajudar e dar recomendações, um dos restaurantes mais incríveis que experimentamos em Gozo foi recomendação dele e vai ficar-nos para sempre na memória. Adorámos o tamanho do quarto, o facto de ter uma pequena kitchenette e um terraço maravilhoso com vista para a piscina onde tomávamos os nossos pequenos almoços. IUma boa surpresa foi o facto de terem sauna. A piscina é lindíssima e super agradável. As camas poderiam ser mais confortáveis, a limpeza do chão e do pó poderia ser melhorada.
- Magdalena (10/5): - The guesthouse is fantastic - located in a calm neighborhood, yet still close to the shop (walking distance), Victoria (by car or bus), and a nice small beach. It offers both privacy but also provides common spaces for integration with other guests and hosts. Peter and Paul make this place exceptional, so you can feel like a family member. Thanks so much for hosting us! I would suggest clarifying in the description that breakfast is available in a self-catering mode only. For us, it was actually very convenient, but maybe not for everyone.
- Margo (10/5): Thank you for the serene stay! - Peter and Paul are the best hosts! We loved the location, the charm and the history of the property! Pool area is lovely, our room was like a whole apartment!
- Christian (9/5): - Maison de caractère en demi étages, très bien agencée et entretenue. Plan d'accès clair qui nous a permis de trouver rapidement notre hébergement. Très bon accueil de la part de notre hôte. Jardin avec piscine ombragée et calme. Un lit de qualité mais pas suffisamment large.
- Paula (10/5): A beautiful little oasis close to stunning beaches - We absolutely loved our time here (3 nights in September). We stayed in the Tranquility Suite which was spacious, clean and well-equipped. Ample breakfast provisions were provided in our room, plus we were able to prepare more in the full kitchen downstairs. Our room had two private terraces. In addition, there are beautiful mature gardens with lots of seating and sun beds around the pool. A real little oasis, peaceful yet close to all the local beaches and sights. Paul met us at check in and was very helpful, giving us local recommendations for beaches and restaurants. All in all, a wonderful place to stay on this beautiful island. Nothing, everything was very good.
- Ulrike (10/5): The Place to be in Gozo - Ein sehr schönes über 300 Jahre altes Haus, überaus liebevoll ausgestattet mit unendlich vielen kleinen Details dekoriert. Man kann sich im Haus frei bewegen und es gibt eine sehr gut ausgestattete Gemeinschaftsküche, in der man kochen kann. Tee / Kaffee kann man sich jederzeit selber bereiten und es stehen immer sehr leckere Kekse, Kuchen, Wasser und Obst da. Ich war im Fantasy, 2 getrennte Räume im Erdgeschoss und einen Innenhof mit Tisch, Wäschetrockner. Es gab es eine Küchenzeile, einen Kühlschrank, eine Spüle, Toaster, Wasserkocher, Tee, Kaffee, Wasser, Kekse und einen bei Ankunft mit nach Wunsch gefüllten Lebensmitteln für das Frühstück (Obst, Joghurt), welches man sich selber zubereitet, und zusätzlich Milch, Orangensaft, Käse aus Gozo, Marmelade, Toastbrot, Salz ,Pfeffer, Essig, Öl war auch da. Sehr angenehm auch die Fliegengitter vor den Fenstern. Die Palmen und Pflanzen um den Swimming Pool sind schön, der Pool ist von aussen nicht einsehbar. Super ist auch die kleine Sauna. (Tücher und Handtücher für den Pool vorhanden) Es werden nur 4 Einheiten vermietet, keine Kinder erlaubt, somit nur wenige Menschen dort, kein Geschrei am Pool sondern eine Oase der Ruhe und Entspannung. Die Gastgeber sind äußerst aufmerksam, hilfsbereit und freundlich. Das Haus liegt ruhig am Ortsrand und in der für mich schönsten Gegend von Gozo. Um den Pool herum und auf den Liegen sind Blätter und Früchte der Palmen, die könnten häufiger weggefegt werden. Die Pflanzen besonders im Haus könnten etwas mehr Wasser / Pflege vertragen.
- Ebejer (10/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Great location, very comfortable, lovely pool area, friendly and very helpful host; everything you could wish for. - Spacious rooms and well furnished, quiet, peaceful and very friendly owner. Home from home.
- Sarah (8/5): Wonderful stay - A quirky little haven! I liked that this place is off the beaten track, I rented a car which I'd say is helpful unless you want to take cabs everywhere. Common Areas were kept clean and they catered to my veggie and gf diet which was really appreciated. The bed in the tranquility suite wasn't the most comfortable.
- Karen (10/5): Cant wait to come back :) - Wow, what an amazing place! It’s so unique, every detail of the design is just stunning, I instantly fell in love with it. Peter and his son were beyond helpful, making everything so easy and welcoming. The peace, the surroundings, the whole atmosphere… it was exactly what we were looking for (and more!). I’m already dreaming of coming back and can’t wait to see it in other seasons!
- Alice (10/5): Séjour solo de qualité - Paul et son père Peter ont été très accueillants. La maison dispose de tout ce qu'il vous faut. Une cuisine est à disposition dans la maison en plus de des éléments dans la chambre, plus des coins salons et une gentille Claudia plutôt bavarde 🐱🐈⬛ La piscine est ensoleillée aux bonnes heures et l'endroit est parfaitement calme. Idéal pour des moments de déconnexion, de détente et de selfcare. Et la décoration est parfaite selon moi , on s'y sent bien ! Si vous n'avez pas de voiture, l'endroit n'est pas le plus proche des points "à visiter" mais à pied certaines choses sont faisables en une heure voir moins (avec les fortes chaleurs c'est plus difficile), en bus c'est un peu long mais cela se réalise. Sinon les chauffeurs VTC viennent facilement et sont abordables.
- Alison (8/5): Lovely, characterful, relaxed guest house in a rural spot - friendly hosts too. - We really enjoyed our stay at Dar tal-Kaptan guest house. It has such a relaxed vibe, perfectly suited to the rural location, and we were sad to leave. We were greeted by Paul who was super friendly and showed us around the place, and then gave us lots of great tips for exploring the lovely island of Gozo and restaurants etc. (We especially liked Maldonado in Victoria - fab food). In terms of our room we loved the country-chic vibe and the modern facilities such as the air con, which was essential! We especially enjoyed also the pool area, which was absolutely beautiful and so lovely to return to after a day out in the hot sun. Decor suits those with a maximalist inclination. The village has a handy shop (but no cafe etc). We found the breakfast arrangements a bit unusual and confusing - essentially make it yourself - but for anything cooked you had to do this downstairs in the main kitchen. There was a well stocked fridge in the room with with basic ingredients provided on the first day, plus toaster and kettle. Maybe would be good if the room's kitchenette was expanded to include a little sink and cooker and utensils? Also, we had a nice little terrace but we couldn't use it most of the day due to the scorching sun - a shade/parasol would make a huge difference - would have been lovely to have been able to have our breakfast out there. But overall, I don't want to sound too critical as this is a fab place that I would highly recommend!
- Uladzislau (10/5): -
- Ramon (9/5): -
- Kim (10/5): Made to feel welcome by owners. We had an enjoyable relaxing week. - Very interesting, quirky, clean, relaxing and well equipped. Beautiful home.
- Anna (10/5): Relax in Dar tal Kaptan - Everything was fantastic, quiet location, swimming pool, garden, sauna, beautiful nature around, house cats, amazing decorations in this beautiful house and great hosts, thank you Peter and Paul, you create unusual ambiente. N/a
- Joanne (10/5): Peaceful and relaxing… - It’s such a beautiful place having a peaceful aura around which makes for a very relaxing ambience. Amazing pool area!
- Nikolai (10/5): Exceptional - We stayed for 5 night in the Serenity-room and had a wonderful time. The two terraces are always in the sun and you can find wind-protected spot to read and enjoy the sun. The room is fully equipped and very spacey. Peter an Paul are superfriendly hosts and are always reachable for help or advices. Thanks for the good time!
- Siobhan (9/5): Superb - Service was excellent. Room had everything we needed with gorgeous views in a quiet spot. Peter is an excellent and kind host offering a warm and friendly atmosphere. We stayed in nostalgia. The bed is a small double and not for someone longer than 180cm
- Albert (10/5): Tranquility gem in Ghasri - Highly recommended. Located in a very quiet area, which makes the surroundings very peaceful. The finishing of the place makes you feel at home. Beautiful country views very clean and spacious rooms with a terrace overlooking the pool, garden area and valley to Zebbug . Our short stay.
- Jansje (10/5): Absolutely fabulous, my perfect getaway. - Location, accommodation, facilities, breakfast, and service were exceptional. I was made so welcome, and I felt at home on arrival. The pool and garden provided a perfect environment for relaxation and appreciation of nature, and to contemplate how I stumbled upon, in my view, the best of Gozo. The host provided me with everything necessary to make the most of exploring the island and transport links were good. The bus service is regular, and details of taxi and care hire were provided. The suite I had was everything it was described to be, and so comfortable offering me a spacious beautifully furnished private space with access to outdoors. All in all I loved my time here; I left refreshed and revitalised. I plan to return in the very near future. I honestly can't think of anything I didn't like. For me I found a little bit of heaven.
- Satu (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was wonderful – the guesthouse exceeded all my wishes and expectations, and more! I was warmly welcomed, and help was always close by. The room was spacious, peaceful, and well-equipped, and I even had my own balcony! The location was convenient even without a car – the bus stopped nearby, and there were lovely walking paths close to the house. I truly hope to come back here soon! A big thank you to Peter and Paul, and extra cuddles to the adorable garden cats!
- Carl (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful hosts. Well furnished and comfortable rooms. Peaceful
- Andrew (9/5): Superb -
- Glynnies (8/5): Very good - Breakfast items included
- Roberto (10/5): Rating: 10/10 - Amazing stay in a studio penthouse with sweeping views - I had an incredible stay at this beautiful property! The hosts were so accessible, welcoming, and truly hospitable, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. My studio penthouse room was absolutely stunning. It had two different ways to access it, one of which was almost completely private with a separate entrance to the exterior of the property; handy if returning back late. There was access to the property's large garden, pool, and also to the communal living spaces. The room also had access to both a large semi-private terrace and an equally spacious, completely private terrace, each offering sweeping views of the gorgeous Gozitan countryside. The room itself was well-lit, with plenty of natural light pouring in through the large windows, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The attention to detail in the room was amazing, with beautiful oriental decor that added a unique touch. The rest of the house and common areas were equally charming, decorated with rustic and homely accents that made it feel cosy and inviting. The mini fridge in the room was well stocked with local delicacies, including cheeselets and essentials. Also, there were plenty of snacks and breakfast options. I had a lovely breakfast on the private terrace while enjoying the views. However, what really stood out was the hospitality of the hosts. They were so accommodating, friendly, and very happy to chat, making the whole experience feel like staying with friends. I can't recommend this place enough, and I will definitely be back! It was an amazing stay! There was nothing to fault.
- Trevor (10/5): Perfect in every way, we’ll definitely be returning! - Needing somewhere to relax away from our busy life, this property delivered everything we needed and more. Starting with a wonderful welcome, then our suite was a blaze of colour and tranquility. The pool area was perfect, being both peaceful and scenic allowing us to chill out and or take a dip in the lovely pool. Nothing
- Hilary (10/5): Very happy visit, will definitely return! - Everything! Beautiful location, beautiful property, very relaxing environment. Nothing to dislike.
- Justin (10/5): A Beautiful Unique experience I suggest to all my loved ones! - It’s whimsical! ✨ So uniquely decorated! A truly beautiful mansion, loved watching sunrise from our verandah, relaxing by the pool and its view! It’s feel warm and full of love ❤️ I like everything about it! It’s artsy it’s enchanting and Peter is such a knowledgeable, humble human!
- Stefan (10/5): Friendly and Easy, A short stay in rural Gozo the re-energizes you for the bigger city! - This was by far the best check in with the friendliest of owners that made my stay that extra special. The house is delightful, the countryside this time of year was gorgeous. For walkers it is a threat. The facilities are top notch. That Sauna did the trick. It was wonderful. I really can’t fault it.
- Charles (9/5): relaxing weekend with loved ones - Love the place, comfortable, homely and close to many usual places - sea, countryside, not far from the commercial centre everything was good
- Luis (10/5): Can't wait to be back. - It's the perfect location with outstanding views a fantastic pool area with sauna facilities. The place is 10 minutes away from Victoria and all the restaurants and shops. Our very romantic room 'Nostalgia', included a bathtub and a separate shower as well with a breathtaking view. There was also a very useful kitchenette in the room that opened to a large balcony. The host made sure there were always typical Maltese snacks available in the room and around the house for all the guests. That our stay was so short.
- Daniel (10/5): A most welcome break on Gozo - The place, its style, architecture & furnishings is so welcoming that it truly makes for an enjoyable & relaxing stay... away from all the hustle & bustle. The host/s are friendly & their interaction with guests was appreciated and far from being intrusive. Quite frankly, there isn't anything that I can honestly say referring to anything which I didn't like about the place or during my stay there.
- Paul (9/5): A rejuvenating and restful stay made special by the super hosts - It is quaint, homey, and remains my favourite place to stay in Gozo. It’s full of beautiful pottery and the views over the valley at the back are wonderful. Lots of light and fresh air. There isn’t anything we don’t like but don’t expect a minimalist set up
