    Nothing. It was perfect.

    Sophie was very friendly, kind and welcoming. Her house has a relaxing ambience. We really enjoyed her amazing, beautifully presented breakfasts in a very pretty garden. It was lovely to swim and relax by the pool in the afternoons after our trips out. The location was perfect with only a short 10 minute walk to the village square. Sophie and Stephanie are a great team. We would highly recommend this exceptional house and will definitely return.

    Botanica is a treasure we cannot get enough of. From the moment you step inside, you are enveloped in warmth and tranquillity. The breakfast is incredible, with all the items crafted with love and care. Sophie's attention to detail and genuine care for her guests truly make this B&B a standout gem. We cannot recommend Botanica enough.

    We would like to thank Sophie for the amazing time we had in her B&B! The house is 400 y.o. and provides a nice local atmosphere. The room was pretty big and clean. The house is super beautiful, with nice furniture and decorations. There are some aroma candles in the house, which smell awesome. We had everything we needed, also towels for the swimming pool. The pool was big enough and clean. The most impressive thing was the breakfast! Sophie and her friend prepared everything themselves every morning! We stayed 3 nights there, therefore we had 3 breakfasts. Every time there was something new, they prepared every time another surprise! The food was very fresh and delicious, but the way they served it was amazing too!!! It was served with so much attention to detail and love! Merci Sophie for the amazing B&B experience in Gozo! We already recommend your B&B for all our friends. We would like to come back soon! Greetings and privet from Germany, Michael & Malika

    Wow! What a place. The building, garden, pool area, rooms and communal spaces were all absolutely beautiful. The photos don’t do it justice! Sophie and Stefanie took care of us so well and made us feel at home immediately. As for the breakfasts, there are no words. Sophie is incredibly passionate about what she does and it shows in absolutely everything. Can’t wait to visit again next time we’re in Gozo.

    Our stay with Sophie in her beautiful b&b exceeded our expectations. The building, exterior and interior, was beautiful and the smell was amazing (think entering into a botanical spa with lemon and ginger scents). Everywhere was spotless. We stayed in the room with a Seaview, the photos don't do the terrace justice, it's huge! Beautiful sunsets whilst sipping on some gozian wine. The pool area was beautifully done and pool itself was well kept and big enough to swim laps in. Breakfasts are 10/10 are you will read in many of these reviews. The area is great, 10 min walk into the town square with a selection of bars/restaurants. We used the bolt app to get cabs if we wanted to venture further, this was super easy and cheap, waited no more than 10 mins each time and all parts of the island are quickly accessible.

    Sophie took wonderfull care of us during our stay, made us feel very welcome and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, the garden was so green and romantic and the rooms large and beautiful. Sophie arranged massages for us with a local masseur, that was absolutely amazing and would definitely recommend.

    If you visit Gozo for a relaxing time, I'd love to recommend to stay here. Easy to access everywhere, also comfortable and quiet place. Breakfast in a beautiful garden is so special! For lunch and dinner, there are restaurants in Xagha within 10 minutes walking, and can be reached to Marsalforn and Victoria in 5-10 minutes by a car. The hospitality of the owners was also appreciated. She always took care of me and made sure I had a comfortable stay. I definitely spend my next stay here in Malta.

    Sophie was an excellent generous host. Her breakfasts were the best! Location was excellent 4 mins from church square with a handful of lovely restaurants and a bar. When we weren’t out discovering Gozo’s lovely coastline, we were either swimming or relaxing by pool or eating lovely breakfasts or dining in the square. Heaven! The 6 nights went very quickly but it was all so relaxing and peaceful. Xaghra is a great spot from which to investigate all corners of Gozo.
