“A great stay in Gozo, hope to go back.”

We have just returned from a very nice week at this hotel.

We have just returned from a very nice week at this hotel. It has just recently been opened in recent months, and there were a few snagging issues that the hotel needs to address; the hotel is aware and has it in hand. Additionally, the spa is not yet complete, but we were aware of this when we booked; this did not interfere with our holiday at all. The rooftop swimming pool is great, if a little chilly at this time of year, with plenty of sunbeds, chairs, tables, and parasols. On arrival, we were upgraded to a better room. Sabana at the reception was most helpful on check-in and throughout our stay. In fact, all the staff were impeccable and a credit to the hotel and the management, everyone tried their best to assist and enhance our stay, with time to talk with advice on wine from Arun, for our meal, Anthony who promptly served from the bar, Carol and Stefan who dug out ferry timetables, directions, where to go, what to see and advised on many little things that only locals would know, and little details can turn a good holiday into a great one. (Eg. Use Bolt instead of Uber). Bolt is slightly more expensive, but you will get a driver quickly, as the drivers prioritise Bolt as they earn more. When you have a function to attend and time is tight, you do not want to miss the start, messing around to get a cab that will not turn up. Our room was well decorated, clean,and airy with a small but functional balcony, ideal to sit on and drink coffee of a morning. The bathroom had bright and low-level lighting for you to choose from, which was good as you do not want a bright light when you are winding down to sleep. The shower was beautiful with a rainfall shower head, and a hose shower head, all easily adjustable, with good pressure. When in the shower, you do not want to get out; it has nice, softened water with no limescale at all. The shower had good-quality shower/body wash, hair conditioner, and body lotion dispensers. There is a good hairdryer in the bathroom as well. The toilet has a water jet function as well, not that I need it, (the tap was down to the left in our room 608). Although housekeeping do a very good job and the room looks impeccable, if you look deeper, dust is allowed to accumulate under the bed. Breakfast was excellent, a good selection of quality fresh products for every taste. buffet style, including fresh orange, apple, and peach juice (not concentrate fresh). The orange juice was a constant; the peach and apple juice changed, and there were always x 2 fresh juices to choose from. We ate dinner at the hotel once due to our holiday timetable, but wish now we found time to eat there more often, as the meals we had were beautiful, the chef Morsheed is a talented cook. Between us we ate x 3 different meals, all were impeccable, and the cost was not exorbitant either, yes, a little more expensive than some local eateries, but it was worth it. The menu is not large, quality over quantity, but the meals were delicious. We are not big drinkers, but the bar is well stocked and not overpriced for the quality of the service and drinks provided, from alcoholic to mocktails to smoothies. The hotel is situated a short walk from the harbour and a short ride to Ramla Beach. If we go back to Gozo, without any hesitation, I would go back to The Reef Hotel

“The hotel with a lovely view.”

Newly constructed hotel with magnificent views just 4 minutes by walk to the beach. Very spacious and clean rooms and attentive staff ready to help you out. A very good breakfast is also served. Highly recommended!

“Almost!”

So much to like about this hotel - absolutely fantastic staff and lovely pools - stunning views from the rooftop pool and a peaceful pool on the third floor. The room had a disappointing view (although I think many of the rooms fared better) but the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom good - minor issues once raised were addressed quickly. Breakfast was good but the main disappointment was the evening atmosphere - eating a slightly disappointing meal under a fluorescent strip light and spotlight effect was underwhelming and although we later found we could access the courtyard for drinks it was far preferable to visit the lovely restaurants on the sea front and most guests seemed to do the same. The staffing of the pool bars was also erratic but that might be the fact that it was not peak season. Basically a good looking hotel with good amenities and great staff and a great B&B option
