A traditional Maltese home in the heart of the charming capital Victoria for a very unique stay on Gozo Island. ~~~ A Rock 'n' Roll vibe, woven into the original historic atmosphere - experience the surprising synergy, and the rocking symphony! ~~~ The ground-floor, family-friendly house has all modern amenities, together with the preserved character, and charme of a historic building. ~~~ This stylishly finished home comprises 2 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms with a shower each, a living room with TV, a well-lit dining room, a sweet little fully-equipped kitchen, and a central courtyard separating the house, thus allowing the back bedroom+bathroom to form an extra unit - making the house perfect for two couples, friends, or families. You may use the washing machine upstairs. On the roof terraces you can relax in the hammock, and enjoy a nice drink with Citadella view. ~~~ It's a family- and artist-run holiday home, mindfully handpicked and lovingly designed to create spaces with a unique style that combines delicate, flowing, vintage features with rough, edgy, Rock, and industrial accents. The atmosphere seizes the refreshing clash, and the pleasant harmony between antique and modern, male and female, shiny chic and shabby chic, feathery soft and unbreakably hard. ~~~

Back when we lived the van-life, some kind of magic always pulled us back to Gozo. That's how we found the home of our hearts. <3 I'm a mother to three wonderful children. My family, and my friends mean the world to me, and I like to give every new 'Hello' the chance to be a meaningful encounter. Preparing a cosy, welcoming, and inspiring home brings me a lot of joy, even more so, if it means creating the basis for a person's favourite holiday. :) ~~~ In the mission to contribute to celebrating the magical beauty of Gozo, we seek to cherish the traditional way of living on the island by keeping, original features, and furniture. ~~~ What might be beyond, you kind of naturally intuit when gazing at the enchanting entrance doors and balconies in all these tasteful, delicate colour palettes, elaborate ornamentations, and good amounts of genuine, mellow patina. Whereas most tourists are left with their imagination and guesswork while strolling through the historic centers, you get a chance to open that beautiful green door, have a look inside, and even better - call it your home during your stay on Gozo. :) ~~~ Behind the walls (and in fact, the walls themselves) are indeed treasures that merit landmark status, and should in our opinion always be protected and preserved by heritage conservation. ~~~ In all rooms you will find the historic Maltese stone flooring that was constructed in a 300-years-old, very complex pouring process, each tile individually handmade, to create lovely patterns in a big range of variety. ~~~ High ceilings, and wooden beams make for a magnificent, majestic, yet cosy atmosphere. ~~~ The warm-colored sandstone is one of the most defining features of the Maltese Islands. With the oldest free-standing temples in the world, history was engraved in sandstone, and of course it is the material the big slabs of our houses are constructed of. Paired with the abundance of sunshine, it really tints our lives here on the islands with a soft golden glow. ~~

The property is located in a peaceful residential street next to the iconic Citadel and museums within the fortified old city. ~~~ Our house is close to Greens supermarket, the central bus station (with routes to all destinations on Gozo), churches, piazzas with the best restaurants/cafés, shops, art galleries, and the picturesque old city centre with the colourful narrow alleys. ~~~ A holiday home in Victoria makes it very easy to plan exploring the whole island, as the central bus station is only 5 minutes away. ~~~ Our house is a ground-floor, one-level house with all rooms for your private use. No stairs to be climbed for living spaces. (Washing machine and roof terraces upstairs!). Note: some low-profile door steps between rooms. ~~~ There is an outdoor staircase in the courtyard leading to the laundry area, and to the roof, which is part of our private property, and nobody else will pass from there, so the courtyard is a safe space. All Gozo is very safe in general, as you will learn here. :) As an old tradition/habit, a lot of people leave the keys to their cars in the ignition if they hop into shops, for others to re-arrange if needed, or elderly folks often leave the key on the door of the house, so friends and family can enter. It demonstrates the natural serenity, and confidence in community on the island. ~~~ I, or a trusted person, will be on the island during your stay. Don't hesitate to contact me if you need assistance, recommendations, or if I can make your stay more perfect by adding something you are missing. :) ~~~
