Reviews for San Antonio Guesthouse

Review 1:The place is well situated in a quiet area, and we enjoyed the view from our room...The owners are very friendly indeed while the place is well kept and very clean...I recommend this place to any person that wishes to take a quiet break from the every day hurdle...

Review 2:Nobody was there when we arrive so we had to call someone from the reception phone, make 3 calls to get the info that the key was on the door. It's not a big deal but not so welcoming. The bed was really bad. The breakfast was very simple and both day the same. We had 3 powerbrakes during a stay of 2 nights.

Review 3:The rooms are big, the pool, the terrace. It's a nice town, good restaurants!

Review 4:very good service and hospitality of the owners. excellent location in respect to: 1. sea distance (about 200 m) 2. walks starting point 3. countryside swimming pool with seaview housekeeping and cleaning including towels regular exchange good location in the range of buses plenty excellent restaurants in 7 mins walk rest exactly as written/described on the webpage

Review 5:Breakfast times were not adapted to divers schedule, so we always had to eat in a hurry to be at the dive centre on-time. Breakfast quite simple and not very varied. No hairdryer in the rooms despite mention in room facilities. Shower lacks a shower curtain.

Review 6:Spectacular view from our room and balcony on the upper floor, large room, friendly staff, nice pool area, short walking distance from the "village-centre"

Review 7:Just a few small things could've made it a bit better. The rooms could use updating a little. There wasn't a braket on the wall for the shower head or a shower curtain so the floor got soaked when you had a shower. The balcony was quite dirty and so not really enjoyable to sit on. Our air conditioning broke on the first night and leaked water over the floor, but we told Maria in the morning and she had it fixed straight away. The bed wasn't that compfy either but it was bearable. Breakfast was very nice but it got a bit 'samey' and more variety would have been better.

Review 8:It's a very sweet, family run hotel in a great location.The pool was great and never that busy. Staff were only really around at breakfast time and were very polite and helpful.

Review 9:Absolutely terrible pillows that were changed, the new ones were worse.also the bedclothes were old and mismatched. The rooms were cleaned only each other day, don't know why? These things were truly bad! Not expensive but not good value!

Review 10:Good pool

Review 11:Breakfast was plentiful and okay but the same every day. No croissants or buns, just toast

Review 12:Quiet excellent location, a sea view is worth the extra, pool area very good with ample comfortable beds and mattresses.

Review 13:If I had to complain about anything, which there really wasn't anything major I would have to say a freezing cold swimming pool and the lack of a proper shower

Review 14:San Antonio is like a home from home. Family run and very friendly with facilities available all day long for tea/coffee, even a microwave to warm up food. Nice and quiet area for chilling out but only a 5 min walk to the cafes/restaurants/bars/shops in Xlendi. Will definitely stay again

Review 15:One fridge for 15 or so guests to share is a little ungenerous. We'd gladly have swapped our hideous old CRT TV for a little fridge in our room. Also, the upper floor terrace, which provides beautiful sunset vistas was wasted by having no decent furniture on. No staff ever come at night - if they did, they'd know how many bulbs were blown in the public areas, which are very dark. The stairs are tricky in this murky light. Rooms a little dated. Ask for a pool view room.

Review 16:George, Maria & mother offer superbly caring & warm hospitality and nothing is too much trouble. The guesthouse had a nice "homely" feel which we loved. The pool was splendid and much needed in the heat. The views of Xlendi bay from the pool terrace and an upper floor terrace were very pretty. The provision of breakfast was most welcome and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We travelled to every corner of Gozo and thought Xlendi was the nicest resort.

Review 17:These are only minor issues. A shower curtain would be good, now the bathroom floor is really wet after a shower. The wifi was very slow.

Review 18:If you need nightclubs and discos, forget Xlendi. But if you appreciate a charming small village, great scenery, good possibilities for trail running, walking, etc. and splendid restaurants, go to Xlendi. And there, San Antonio guesthouse is a real juwel. Small, but cosy, great sea-view. Wonderful host family, who make you feel at home. Comfortable rooms.

Review 19:The Studio (two double beds) has a lot of noise coming from a generator of sorts hanging above the room on an outside wall.

Review 20:The location is very quiet, the pool area is very nice and clean.

Review 21:A fridge in the room would be great. There is however on available in the breakfast room.

Review 22:The owners and some family members are running this guest house. Everyone is so nice and always helpful! The breakfast was very good. The pool is well maintained and has a beatiful sea view. Plenty of good restaurants are in reasonable distance. The bus stop is ony 3 min away.

Review 23:Nothing really. Going back again in May

Review 24:Well situated guesthouse Very clean good room. WiFi Good pool Excellent and helpful staff. Personal welcome email after booking. Great at arranging airport transfers and taxis

Review 25:Recommend against sunshine rental cars.. awful awful!! ours was so old it still had a tape deck and no sold air con

Review 26:Warm hospitality, George esp personable. clean large room, aircon, lovely new bed, huge balcony with expansive sea, cliff and headland views. Breakfast was same everyday - still plentiful and tasty. great location for xlendi with waterside or road stroll into town. best spot on the island, for perfect balance of peace and life. and hardly any brits / footy shirts! purrrfect!! fabulous pool.. so so hot in july, you need it.

Review 27:Nothing to dislike.

Review 28:Friendly attentive service, family atmosphere, nothing too much trouble. Location perfect - walking distance of centre and swimming area plus lots of coastal walks on the doorstep. Excellent restaurants in Xlendi - Boathouse.

Review 29:It would be appreciated some extra accessory in the room, as the curtain in the shower and a little fridge

Review 30:the kindness of George! The swimming pool is nice, the room is big, the terrace is wonderful with the view on the bay and Xlendi's tower,the building is new but in traditional maltese stone

Review 31:San Antonio is a really personal guesthouse and that's great. The swimming pool and the sea view were also great! The location of this guesthouse is fantastic! In 5 minutes you are in Xlendi, a beautiful place to eat or just enjoy the beautiful things from Gozo.

Review 32:No shower only shower head in what otherwise was a lovely bathroom. Breakfast a bit repetitive. A bit of a problem with an old TV but that was replaced with a new one. Some of the loungers need replacing and maybe the garden could have been tidier but minor issues.

Review 33:Large comfortable sea view room. Location perfect - up the hill so lovely views but only a few minutes walk down to the swimming and restaurants in Xlendi. Very close to the bus stop. Pool and terrace was also excellent. Family owners very friendly and helpful.

Review 34:This is just a suggestion ... maybe some umbrellas near the pool would be a good idea. There is a tent but not enough for those that want to stay by the pool but not in the sun.

Review 35:Nothing to complain about ... spacious, clean room overlooking Xlendi Cliffs. Good decent breakfast. George always ready to accomodate any request. Quite area. Parking no problem at any time of the day. Nice pool and area.

Review 36:Gozo is a nice and quite island, Xlendi is a nice place to stay. This is a small hotel, but I think it was the best choice. George, Maria and Anna were really friendly and helpful. The pool and the view is perfect ..... highly recommended!!!!!

Review 37:No bad experiences but just to warn you the guest house is up quite a steep hill from Xlendi Bay - no problem if you're reasonably fit and good parking if you use a car.

Review 38:The personal attention of the owners was excellent from the moment we booked. We received an email from George one of the owners telling us all we needed to know about getting to and staying at the San Antonio. The three owners and their staff were all very pleasant and very helpful. Great swimming pool and a view over Xlendi bay from the terrace as well. Only 10 minutes walk from a good range of restaurants. We'll stay here again when we next visit Gozo but for longer!

Review 39:Shame no free wifi. No local maps/tour information. Communal pool. Douche bath, no shower or curtain screen resulting in a very wet slippery bathroom floor. Charged for quadruple room but given a double room with 2 beds and an uncomfortable fold up bed. Note unnecessary defensive responses to previous reviews -there are benefits to this guesthouse depending what you are looking for.

Review 40:Excellent organised transport from airport to Gozo. Breakfast as described.

Review 41:- With little shape up in the public areas (pool, terrace, etc) it would be perfect and owners could charge more:) so better be shh....;)

Review 42:- "Breakfast moment" is very nice. Owners (very nice and helpful people) chat with the customers same time than they are making food.¨ - Stunning view from the balcony(room 202) - Spotless clean rooms (nice travel with the baby) When next time i come to Gozo i will definitely stay here again!

Review 43:That we cnly had four days to stay there!

Review 44:San Antonio is a beautiful family run b&b in a stunning location. Great transport links. Property nicer than it looked in the photos - well made and maintained, gorgeous pool looking out onto the sea and cliffs. Fantastic service. Great spot for walks and diving into the bay. Friendly locals and good food. Loved breakfast! We would definitely stay again and recommend. Sophie and Hannah

Review 45:Comfy beds, good breakfasts and helping stuff (when we asked for bikes, they arranged a delivery in front of guesthouse in 20 minutes). Great view from the terrace is priceless.
