We loved the location, the house and most especially the hospitality of Giancarlo and Pamela. They are warm, helpful friendly and happy to make recommendations. They really make you really feel like home in a spectacular place. The views from balconies are unparalleled, especially the sunsets! The delectable breakfast ( especially the croissants) were a great way to start the mornings and Giancarlo also makes a killer Negroni. The friendly outdoor cats are adorable, the pool the perfect size for a refreshing swim in the heat. The beds are comfortable, the AC great , the bathrooms clean and the location is close to the town square where you can find restaurants, pubs and grocery stores. The temple ruins are a short walk and a must see. Nothing is a problem for the hosts and every slight question we had was easily answered . We spent 5 nights there and L’gohfra will always be a special memory for our family.

Nothing at all!

We recently had a fantastic 7 night stay at Ghorfa. Giancarlo and Anita are excellent hosts and immediately made us feel at home. The property is beautiful and the rooms modern and well equipped. The pool is large, warm and well maintained. Breakfast was consistently a highlight with homemade croissants and quality coffee; we also opted for a fish dinner one evening which tasted incredible. With Xaghra being in the centre of Gozo, it’s well situated to explore the island and is in walking distance of several highly rated restaurants. Highly recommended!

A great beautiful home with a warm welcome from Anita and Giancarlo. A comfortable spacious room with fabulous views across to Victoria. Enjoyed using the pool every day and walking into the square for the bars and restaurants. It was great to be back!

Nothing. Only spoiled by some other guests who were very demanding and found lots to complain about. Shameful that they gave a score of 1, after all the effort Anita and Giancarlo made for them. Fortunately there were also some other lovely guests during our 9-night stay.

Anita and Giancarlo could not have been better hosts. The room was very well appointed with a fabulous veranda outside with incredible views over Victoria. The Breakfast was exceptional, with Giancarlo's homemade Croissants daily! They also provided towels for the lovely pool and if you needed to borrow any snorkels or flippers they were also available. Nothing was too much hassle for them and they really were exceptionally kind and generous hosts. I will definitely be returning and could not recommend L'Ghorfa more.

We loved everything about L’Ghorfa! Our host Giancarlo was amazing - nothing was too much trouble. He made the best breakfast and totally entertained us. The house is charming and rustic but has everything you need and the pool is gorgeous. Bonus - 3 beautiful cats in the garden.

That we couldn’t stay forever!

Great location, walking distance to most things in Xaghra. Although I would recommend hiring a car. The house is so lovely and quiet. Even with the other quests. Which was exactly what we wanted. Anita and Giancarlo were fabulous hosts. Very helpful, very kind and very flexible. The breakfast with homemade croissants was always consistent, on time and delicious! And endless espressos!

Everything was great.

We spent 5 nights in Gozo before heading to Malta for 6 nights. In Gozo, our hosts Anita and Giancarlo were amazing! They ensured we felt welcome giving recommendations of places to visit, lending us snorkels and umbrellas for the beach, dinner recommendations and places to find live music. The B&B has a lovely farmhouse feel and with only 3 guest rooms, it was wonderfully quiet and tranquil. Our room was comfortable and cleaned daily with a fantastic view from the balcony. We enjoyed swimming in the pool, which is bigger and deeper than it looks from the pictures and the outdoor space is a real suntrap for some sunbathing! Anita provided beach towels for us to use by the pool. We were also able to use the fridge to keep our water cold, which was needed in July/August! We have to mention Giancarlo's freshly baked croissant's, which were delicious! We had one every morning for breakfast, which were 10/10! We would definitely recommend hiring a car for your time here - whilst there are a few restaurants and bars in Xaghra just a short distance from the B&B - it's really nice to go and visit other places in Gozo, especially if you want to swim in some more secluded bays and beaches. It never took more that 20mins to get from A to B and parking was always easy to find. We used the bus system on Malta's main island and found it unreliable and it is supposedly better than the bus system on Gozo! We definitely had wished we had extended our car rental for Malta too. Gozo was the highlight of our holiday!

Can't fault our stay.

Amazing breakfast, super clean property, great location and the best thing is the wonderful hosts Anita and Giancarlo who do everything possible to make you feel welcome and comfortable! We truly felt part of the family and couldn’t have asked for more! We went in April and had beautiful sunny weather and the island was nice and quiet meaning we had a lot of lovely beaches to ourselves. Definitely an excellent location for some spring warmth!

Nothing!

Our 10-night stay at L’Ghorfa was far from being a “disaster”! A lovely, traditional-style B&B, with generous and fun hosts, in a perfect and peaceful spot – just 10 minutes’ walk from the main square, and with beautiful views across to Victoria and the Citadel. A good location for exploring Gozo, as a good bus system runs to most places out of Victoria, which is 10 mins by bus or 20 mins on foot from L’Ghorfa. We had a lovely big room and terrace, with a fantastic view. The attractive square in Xaghra has a good selection of restaurants and bars/cafes, serving high quality food and drink. Giancarlo and Anita are the perfect hosts, and certainly ‘go the extra mile’, with lifts to and from the ferry, welcome drinks, useful information and much more. We swam in the pool 3 times (even though Giancarlo thought we were crazy, so early in the season, but we explained we are just English!!). We enjoyed meeting the other guests too; as L’Ghorfa just has 3 rooms, it feels rather like a little family. We were here on our delayed honeymoon (2 years later than planned, because of Covid) and it was very special, and worth the wait. We’re now wondering how soon we can go back!

Leaving!

Anita & Giancarlo are excellent hosts, very friendly and generous. We were very comfortable in our terrace room and made good use of the pool every day. Continental breakfast is tasty and plentiful. It's an easy 12 minute walk into the main square, which has plenty of bars and restaurants, making Xaghra an excellent location to base yourself.
