About Gozo

Many people don't realise Malta's charms extend beyond the shores of the main island - to Gozo, the smaller, quieter island to the north, with more of an Arabian look to its smattering of pretty towns and some of the world's best diving sites. The stunning landscape is marked by beautiful churches and charming villages that are ripe for exploring. The Hotel Guru's pick of the best places to stay in Gozo ranges from a chic guesthouse to five star luxury resort.

Things to not to miss:.

  • Divers know about the 'Inland Sea', a deep hole illuminated by fluorescent corals, and the 'Azure Window', but even surface-dwellers can experience some of their wonder looking overboard from one of the little tour boats.
  • Rabat is the island's largest town, topped by an impressive fortified citadel. The streets spread outwards like a spider's web, along which the square buildings gather. Folks here value their peace, and it's only been in the last decade or so that people have started driving cars instead of horse and carts. But it's not just Rabat where peace is valued, this is the warm blanket enveloping all of Gozo.
  • Gozo does have one tourist site, Ggantija, two temples made from giant, freestanding stones. A UNESCO World Heritage Site a thousand years older than Stonehenge and just as atmospheric, mysterious and humbling.
  • There are other archaeologically interesting reserves on the island as well, if you fancy poking through the wild herbs and gladioli.
  • For such a tiny island there are a large number of churches and wherever you are on the island you'll be within the sound of church bells pealing. Gozo also has one particularly large church at Xewkija - with the third largest unsupported rotunda in Europe. This island is so devout, that they built this new church on top of their old church, before dissembling their original church and rebuilding it elsewhere.

Gozo is perhaps Malta's best kept secret with gorgeous scenery and a peaceful atmosphere. The people are at the heart of the place and our selection of the best places to stay in Gozo keep the island's delightful hospitality at the fore of their service.
