The pool area could need a bit more attention (new chairs, umbrellas).

Very cute and charming room.

The location was peaceful and quiet, with lots on nearby. The host had such good recommendations that we are keen to return again soon.

No one was there during check in. Then my room wasn’t cleaned. Then on check out day, the house cleaner telling me to check out at 10am, when the check out time is at 11am. Bed is uncomfortable. There’s a padding that keeps sliding out of bed. I slipped out a few times.

Location is good. Restaurants nearby. The room is beautiful. The place is cute. Accessible by public transport. The stairs for the bathroom could be dangerous for others due to the amount of space around it.

The bed is quite soft and for tall people the bed end is less convenient. The bathroom could use an upgrade and could be cleaner.

Location and view are great and how rare is it to sleep in a building of more than 750 years old!!!! Also the pool is a big bonus for chosing this L’Gharix Temple Retreat for a stay. A one of a kind place that I hope will be preserved against further building activities nearby /around.

Memorable experience in a small village at the one of the oldest temples in the world “Ggantia temples “ with stylish architecture, kind people and natural beauty such as Ramla beach to which I enjoyed hiking. The accommodation in the 800 old house put me back to the deep past with its lovely interior and architectural elements.

If they do some lights in the ally that Leeds to the farmhouse it will be perfect.

It’s very peaceful and relaxing place, nice swimming pool and it’s very clean and comfortable.

The air conditioner was broken so it was hot in the room. If the day is very hot, then you can get cold water only in the evening. Small freezer and it sometimes switch off

Nice pool, good location and room

I think the a/c needs a service because it wasn't cooling well and we couldn't sleep properly.

There's nothing I don't like about this place.

Parking is on the street, it is easy and safe but there is about a 100m walk to the house.

Our hosts were great and gave us some excellent recommendations for our trip. The room was beautiful with a great historic feel. There were flowers everywhere on the grounds and around the pool. The house was also near a wonderful square with a beautiful church and good restaurants.

No criticism at all because this is a 700+ year old Gozitian property but just for awareness, the steps to the bathroom are not suitable for people who are unsteady on their feet.

The property was set in a beautiful garden near to Ggantija. The Orchid Room was very cosy with good facilities including a writing desk, a fridge and a very comfortable bed. Karin was a wonderful host.

Beautiful! Perfect location, and the heated blanket was a really nice touch on a wet, cold day!

For myself, there wouldn't be anything I'd change. I stayed here during the off-season and was really fortunate to be able to find availability here.

This accommodation is within walking distance of the Ġgantija temple. Karin has set up the stay with great facilities and the home is gorgeous. I will definitely be making a return trip!

The calm of the place The very nice pool all for myself The cat that sneak in my room and slept with me the entire night!🥰🥰 The fantastic owner

The floors were fairly dirty and the shower needs a deep clean.

The location was very quiet, and was just a ten minute walk from town, and five minutes away from a bus stop that had connections to all over the island. Very beautiful property and room, easy to feel at home. All the necessary amenities like a tea kettle and fridge were there, plus thoughtful extras like conditioner, tea, bug spray, and a beach towel.

Not a criticism however steps to toilet were testing. Had to make sure of my footing

Out of the way, quiet, peaceful

The only slight minus could be that the last part of the driveway to get to the house, is in stones and very narrow so only small cars can get through. So you need to walk by foot further to the main gate. Not a big deal, only with 2 suitcases and at times when no one can help, it can be a challenge :) but that is also part of the charm.

The house itself, perfect renovation of a 750 year old house, with all necessities you need for a stay here. The old charm didn’t get lost with upgrading. Nice & tidy rooms, all comfort foreseen.

Only 1 minor criticism would be the hand held shower over small bath, it was manageable and we coped and it wouldn’t stop me going back, but a proper shower would make all the difference.

Lovely and peaceful environment in a great location for the every thing. Great pool that we had to ourselves most of the time. The old building is beautiful and we really felt we got to experience Gozo as it is, not at all touristy.

I didn’t find the single bed as comfortable as I’m used to - although this is part of travel and the experience. Food required a walk our down to town square 8 mins away which wasn’t a major issue but just so people come mentally prepared. The pros far outweigh the cons however. The place was great - and Karin was great.

Located in a beautiful historic traditional farmhouse renovated and very short distance from Ggantija temple, and about 8 mins walk to town square on foot. The owner Karin (a former architect) is now a trained hypnotherapist and adept at helping people access their inner wisdom through guided sessions in this special location. I had a truly meaningful time there.

Nothing.

It was a haven of relaxation. The owner Karen was amazingly helpful and my room was really well equipped.

A couple of extra power points would help - but what was provided was adequate, particularly for such an old building.

An absolutely magical place - supremely peaceful, extremely private, totally relaxing (one of the most comfortable beds we’ve met in our travels around the globe) - yet within walking distance of a delightful village square and the astonishing Ggigantija Neolithic temple complex. Karin’s cave beside the pool is an extraordinary place in itself! And the three cats are super friendly!

Stayed in February 2023

Sink and toilet I had to clean and just one towel for 3 nights. Everything else was superb.

Location to gigantia and windmill. Such a pity not to have met owners.
