I know I’ve been really positive about a lot of my trips but this really is a top island. Its luckily hidden away for only those of us who are in the know! The island is smaller and quieter than Malta itself but still has the history, great food and sights.

We spent a wonderful week at the Kempinski San Lawrenz hotel; a lovely resort with great facilities. A car is a must on this island really. The bus service did look good, but a car would definitely make life easier! We must have crossed both islands a dozen times.

Some of the beaches are disappointing but that’s not really why you go to Gozo. That said we'll definitely be back...possibly without the children as this is an idyllic island!
