We traveled as a family and stayed for two weeks in June. My husband, myself, with our son and his partner stayed at the farmhouse and my daughter, with her partner, who stayed at the nearby Kempinski hotel. Lovely farmhouse situated within walking distance of the square. Rooftop BBQ & sun loungers with a small pool in the inner courtyard. Marvik and his wife couldn't have been more helpful organizing car & moped hire, even coming out to rescue us when our jeep had a flat battery! Marvik even gave our daughter an extra key so that she could come and go to the villa whenever she wanted to whilst we were there which was very good of him. Highly recommended.

Great farmhouse in the middle of the smallest town of Gozo St. Lawrenz.
a small supermarket, a nice restaurant and a beautiful church are within walking distance.
There is a bus stop right next to the house, so in case you don't have a car you can easily reach the house by bus (that circles over the island).
Marvik is a great host, house was very clean. Everything you need is available, from books and DVD's in the cosy living room, to salt, pepper, oil etc. in the kitchen. Rooms are nicely decorated, beds are good and the outside roof terrace is superb, especially the Weber BBQ which should be used to grill all kinds of fish :-)
The pool in the patio was inviting though somewhat chilly in May.

Just returned from 10 days in Gozo in this very nice house. Marvik, and his family, were very helpful and we had an enjoyable holiday. We had some wonderful food and were welcomed, by the locals, everywhere we visited. Some of the Bays are very beautiful, be sure to visit Dwerja and Xlendi. The only negative is the situation of the house on a road that was, at times, quite noisy. However, maybe we were just unfortunate in this respect because nobody else mentioned it in the Guest Book.
Thank you Marvik and Family

The farmhouse is charming, well-maintained, clean and located in a lovely little village. The pool is small but good, the roof terrace is great for watching sunsets with a BBQ and a glass of wine...
