Quiet and relaxing stay
Lovely, quiet bed & breakfast, with 2 lovely pools and sun terrace. Our room had a balcony with an absolutely stunning view. The staff were lovely and friendly, clearly family run. Be aware that you should let staff know when you are arriving, as reception is not always attended. The room had basic facilities, including kettle, TV and effective air conditioning, all in good condition and very clean. There is no hair dryer, so you will need to take your own. The breakfast is basic, but very nice, including meats and cheeses, yoghurts, a small selection of cereal and toast and delicious fried eggs/omelette cooked on request. It is a short walk to the Bay of Xlendi, which has lots of excellent restaurants and beautiful, safe sea in which to swim. I can't recommend highly enough for a relaxing break.

Wish I’d stayed longer
I like this place. Friendly owners, great view, just a bit out of the way but still close to the village, bus, walks. I chanced the pool but glad I did (a bit cool in April) - can imagine if you’re hear during the warmer months it would be necessary. I’m coming again!

Nice hotel, sweet family, close to bus stop.
Proprietors very helpful and kind. Family run. Stayed there 3 nights and visited Gozo from there. Xlendi is a little out of the way, but once you get the bus system down, was fairly easy. Everything in Gozo/Malta takes a little time so allow for that! This hotel is not a luxury hotel, but clean and nice with great people. We would happily stay there again.

Fabulous guest house with a lovely breakfast
This little guest house was a fabulous find. I was really happy with the room, it was very clean and comfortable. The mattress was brand new and the owners were very keen to be sure we were comfortable during our stay. There was a sink, fridge and microwave, kettle and all utensils you might need for the odd snack and on request, the owner even supplied some milk for our tea. The breakfast was great. We couldn't have wanted anything more, everything was provided and as much as we could manage to eat. Yogurt, cereal, fruit, eggs cooked to order, bread with cheese and ham, croissants, more toast with jam to finish. Tea and coffee on tap....the owners made sure we were well looked after. Thanks to them ! Next time we come to Gozo, we will most likely stay here again, such a good experience and for a great price. Xlendi itself is perfect for us.... a few nice bars and restaurants with a lovely bay for swimming. Waking at hand, great cliff views and whilst there were sit on Kayaks in the bay to rent, proper Kayaking can be arranged from Kayak Gozo nearby Qala, (they will pick you up). A local bus takes you to the capital in 15mins and a very comfortable ride too. We used Blue Waters Dive Cove form Qala for diving, they collected us daily and we were very pleased with them. (There are a couple of dive centres in Xlendi itself to choose from too.)

OK Place!
I was in the annexe to the main hotel. Room was fine and did have a sea view (Just)! Weather was extremely hot so I was glad of the air conditioning. En- suite bathroom fine and communal fridge and tea making facilities etc in the hallway. Breakfast was quite adequate and staff were friendly and attentive. I thought that a couple of ceiling fans in the breakfast area would have been good but maybe other guests were immune to the temperature.

Attentive owners and lovely property
A little removed from the town centre and up a rather steep hill, this lovely guest house provided great views over the bay (from the pool terrace if you had a street view room like us) and friendly hosts. It provided us with a comfortable base to ramble some of the coastal walks of Gozo.

Very good guesthouse with great sea views and pool
Excellent pool, great views, comfortable and roomy accommodation. great location - remember it's uphill on the way back from dinner! Bus stop on the doorstep Despite these excellent facilities and location we found the guesthouse a little austere. Could have been improved with some fruit with the breakfast and a slightly wider choice. The presence of a friendly proprietal face during the day might have made for a 5 star review.

Sightseeing on Gozo
Arrived w. GF - loved the view, the staff and the pool. Breakfast could've been a little more diverse/healthy, but for the price - lovely pampering. We had a nice cosy base for all of our sightseeing and didn't need anything (other than the aforementioned more diverse breakfast - fruit, maybe?). All in all a very nice stay with more than our moneys worth.

We enjoyed a wonderful week at San Antonio Guest House. It's a properly family-run enterprise and the family are delightful & eager to help :) We'd stay again any time and happily recommend this guest house and the sister house next door at St Jude's. Felt well looked after!

Good bed and breakfast
Family run bed and breakfast. Rooms were large most with sea views. Wi fi available for a small charge. Usually somebody available up till lunchtime for advice and information. Communal fridge to store water and food for snacks. A very well stocked van arrived everyday with excellent fruit cheese and basics as no shop close by. Massive investment has been made in paths along the cliff tops from the bandb down to the main resort where swimming from the cliffs into a cordoned off sea pool was popular. Plenty of steps down into the water. Excellent restaurants with an amazing knowledge of gluten free requirements eg gluten free pasta pizza bread and breadsticks. A real treat for coeliacs!

A relaxing week at San Antonio's Guest House
Great location, and lovely views over the Xlendi Harbour. The family who run the hotel are very concerned with the comfort of guests, and are kind and caring. Bedrooms are large and spotlessly clean, as are bathrooms. All rooms have air conditioning and balconies, and the pool and surrounds are in excellent condition. Most rooms have single beds, but they can be put together on request. Bed linen was clean, but beginning to show signs of age. Nearby restaurants provide excellent meals (especially seafood) at good value.

Great value for money - would definitely go back
Great value for money. The rooms were clean and comfy, the pool was clean and the overall atmosphere was perfect. The hotel overlooks the bay/sea, which is visible from the pool area and almost all rooms. All but one room faces west so you benefit from sunsets each night. Our room had single beds which were pushed together (not brilliant for a romantic break, but where there's a will...), and a balcony overlooking the pool/sea. The staff were always v. friendly and helpful, organising our taxi to the port and even giving us a ride to the local supermarket. They have pool towels if you ask for them, and wifi is v.reasonably priced with a decent signal. The breakfast would benefit from a bit of variety and some simple additions (e.g. fruit/yoghurt/fresh juice), but overall reflects the price you pay. The town the hotel is located in (Xlendi) has lots of restaurants and ice-cream shops, easy walking distance away, and a bus link to the main town/rest of the island. The restaurants reflect the overall quality of food on Gozo ... and remember that the best thing about Maltese wine is the ability to not order it, and buy a French bottle instead.

Great compromise between convenience and peace
Sincere and friendly family hospitality. Warm greeting on arrival and served at breakfast as if a family friend. Rooms are clean, comfortable, high ceilings and airy. Limited to only 13 rooms there is always plenty of room for sunbathing by the beautiful pool. Great view from the terrace on the first floor. Located 100m from the bus stop to Victoria.

Perfect break from the tourist traps.
I've never stayed at a guesthouse before and was pleasantly surprised. Great location by the quaint Xlendi Bay, a very necessary break from the red-faced tourists. The staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful, freshly cooked breakfast, nice pool terrace and quiet. I have already recommended the guesthouse to other travellers and will continue to do so.

San Antonio Guesthouse - perfect!
A charming guesthouse in a peaceful location with beautiful sea and mountain views. San Antonio is a short walk from Xlendi yet far enough away to be peaceful and secluded. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. It is a friendly, family run guesthouse which we would highly recommend to anyone staying on Gozo.

Good budget choice, but lacking any luxuries
Good hotel for a short cheap stay. Place is clean and the staff friendly and helpful. Losses a few marks as there was no one to meet us on arrival, bath has a shower attachment but no wall bracket so you have to kind of hose yourself down, and beds had blankets and sheets rather than duvets. Positives were that parking the hire car outside was free and easy, staff and owners were friendly, breakfast was simple but good and the place was very clean. Also has a great view and nice little pool. A pretty good budget choice if you're not too hung up on luxuries.
