Exceptional!
5/5 -
(9 traveler reviews)
Stunning property in a stunning location.
We were blown away by this property it simply is stunning. Gloriously designed throughout, both indoor and outdoor spaces exceeded our expectations.
Staying in July without a cloud in the sky, most of our time was spent on the pool deck, which is large enough for 8 adults to have plenty of personal space, shade if necessary and a view to die for.
Four bedrooms, all large and comfortable with private bathrooms plus a sociable, open plan kitchen made this ideal for 4 couples.
The local square with plenty of restaurants is within walking distance and a Lidl is only a short drive away! Perfect for those nights eating in, overlooking the illuminated Cittadella.
All in all, pretty glorious.
A little slice of heaven
What a wonderful place, we stayed as a small party of 3 and almost got lost in this place. The view was amazing, the indoor pool perfect for January and the weather even in Jan was pretty good (around 18 in the day)
John was the perfect host greeted us with local wine and olive oil which reflected his background in food.
The bedroom we used was made up with the cot ready for my daughter and really good quality bedding that my daughter fell in love with (the blanket went everywhere!)
It had everything you could need for a break and I cannot wait to return to Gozo and hopeful staying in this little piece of paradise.
perfect villa to stay in what ever time of year
this really is the perfect villa to stay in, its suits everyone taste which was perfect for my family, the cinema room is outstanding and excellent for when you've had a day in the pools and just want to relax, the in door pool is fantastic and wonderful for kids and adults too.
everything in the villa is of the highest quality and perfect working order and I did a lot of cooking as it was so well formed !
all the bedrooms are what you would expect to find in the poshest hotels in the world and the air con is a welcome at night when warm.
to be honest the only problem I had was leaving to come home ! so ive booked to go back again next year already.
john and his family really are the nicest people and really do there best to make you fell welcome, johns wife came back in the evening to make the cot up for our daughter which was very nice of johns wife.
I would recommend this villa to anyone and everyone as it suits everyone.
Probably the most exciting property on the Island
Having visited the Island over the years with our children, we returned this year with them now grown up and our first Grandchild. We needed a bolt hole that we could all enjoy and due to the extensive heat we knew we would have somewhere our daughter could cope with her 7 month old daughter. The write up looked promising the photo's shown wonderful, but to stay in this particular Villa was a pure pleasure and we thank John for taking our booking, meeting us and letting us use his Villa which we know he created from his heart. As 6 adults we all had our own space if needed, having a baby meant evening entertainment was restricted but with the home cinema room, we felt every night we had been out - a treat for the new parents. The equipment in the kitchen had been carefully provided, adults have enough in the designer cupboards to rustle up a feast, including it looked like a Christmas Turkey,
but also children had been considered providing both cutlery and crockery. I had taken my usual cleaning emergency bits, knowing there was both a dish washer and washing machine, what a joy it was to find all that you needed had been provided, even full soap dispensers in all bathrooms. It is always the little things that mean more, it goes without saying the Villa was spotless on arrival, the pool man came mid week, a very friendly man and of course the lady that changed the towels and beds was such a joy to talk to. As for the view, it is one that you do not tire of, if you wanted to just live outside you could, with a great outside kitchen and shower. In all we would highly recommend this Villa, having already looked at future bookings, we feel the only problem is that you need to pre-book straight after your holiday for the next year! A big thank you John for being a wonderful host, gentleman and a great designer.
Wonderful
We only had 1 week at Villa Panorama and we were very sad to go.
The villa is beautiful, the photographs don't say enough, and John is welcoming friendly and helpful.
We have always been very fond of Gozo for our family holidays and our stay at Villa Panorama has given us some more good memories.
A perfect winter retreat
We stayed at Panorama Gozo in February 2015 in search of some winter sunshine, but knowing that if there was rainy day, the villa has the luxury of a heated indoor pool as well as wifi and a home cinema to keep us entertained. The indoor pool was glorious and I can imagine once Summer arrives, the outdoor pool will be wonderful too. The villa is spacious, well appointed with comfortable extra large double beds, perfect for a good nights sleep. John the owner is friendly and helpful. I look forward to having the opportunity to return.
