Unbelievable Gozo Getaway: Ta' Bejza Holiday Home Awaits!

Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the gloriously messy world of Ta' Bejza Holiday Home – an "Unbelievable Gozo Getaway" as they so boldly proclaim. And let me tell you, after poring over the details, wrestling with the SEO, and honestly, just living in the possibilities of a Gozitan escape…well, it’s time for a proper, unvarnished, slightly scatterbrained review. Let's do this!

First Impressions & The Accessibility Tango

Right, accessibility. Let's get real. The website, as it often is, whispers of “Facilities for disabled guests.” But specifics, people, are the game. Wheelchair accessible where? Public areas? Individual rooms? What about the pool (that’s a big one, later!)? This is one of those areas where I'd love more granular details. I'm not wheelchair-bound, but knowing the nuts and bolts of accessibility is crucial. A flat entry? Wider doorways? Grab bars in the bathroom? The devil, as they say, is in the details. The website doesn't scream it, so always clarify before booking if this is a crucial factor. Let's hope the place is as accommodating as it wants to be.

The Techie Bits & Pieces - Wi-Fi Woes (Or Wonders?)

Okay, let's get the internet stuff out of the way: Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Hallelujah! That's a solid start. The promise of “Internet access” and "Internet [LAN]" makes me optimistic, though, let's be honest, LAN is about as exciting as watching paint dry in the modern world. Just give me reliable Wi-Fi I can post Instagram stories from, and I'm a happy camper. "Wi-Fi in public areas" is a bonus, but c'mon, who cares about the lobby when you're trying to stream Netflix in your PJs?

Cleanliness & Safety - The Pandemic's Lingering Shadow

Alright, pandemic-era realities. The list is long. “Anti-viral cleaning products,” “Daily disinfection,” “Room sanitization,” “Hand sanitizer,” “Staff trained in safety protocol.” These are all GOOD things. This is the world we live in now. It's reassuring, though I'm always slightly skeptical of the “professional-grade sanitizing services” claim. Are they actually doing it, or just saying it? I'd hope they’ve got the proper hygiene certifications, and they’re removing shared stationery. Thank you, good people.

Dining, Drinking, & Snacking - The Foodie's Field Day (Potentially)

The menus sound… vast. "A la carte in restaurant," "Asian breakfast," "International cuisine," "Vegetarian restaurant." My inner foodie squeals with delight. But, hold your horses. Does vast mean good? Or just…a lot? I really want to know about the Bar and Poolside bar. Are they serving up killer cocktails? Does the "happy hour" last all afternoon? And, crucially, are the “Coffee/tea in restaurant” and "Coffee shop" actually good coffee? A bad coffee experience can ruin even the most stunning view! I'll be on the lookout!

I have to admit, I'm intrigued by the "Breakfast [buffet]" and "Buffet in restaurant." Let's hope it's not a sad, lukewarm affair. And "Room service [24-hour]"? Yes, please. Especially when I'm suffering from post-sun and over-exertion.

Services & Conveniences - The Extras That Matter

“Concierge,” “Doorman,” “Daily housekeeping” – all music to my weary traveler's ears. "Laundry service"? Absolutely essential, especially when you're sweating your way around Gozo's stunning trails. "Invoice provided"? Yay for business travelers! (Though, let’s be honest, maybe this is me justifying my “necessary” holiday.) The "elevator"? A lifesaver, especially if you get a room on the upper floors.

The "Gift/souvenir shop" is a practical touch, I'm sure.

For the Kids - Family Friendly?

"Babysitting service" and “Family/child friendly” are definite positives. "Kids facilities" and "Kids meal" I'm hoping this is all true, for those families with young children!

Things to Do, Ways to Relax - The Heart of the Matter

Now we're getting to the good stuff. The promise of "Body scrub," "Body wrap," and "Massage"… oooh. This is what I'm talking about. A "Spa" and "Spa/sauna"? Sign me up. Just the thought of it soothes my soul.

The Pool with a View. Oh, the pool with a view. This is what I'm most excited about. Imagine: basking in the Gozitan sun, cocktail in hand, overlooking…well, something beautiful. Let’s hope it’s as Instagrammable as it sounds!

The "Fitness center," "Gym/fitness," and “Steamroom” is a must for me.

Available in All Rooms - The Nitty Gritty

Here's where the details really matter (and where the list gets long). “Air conditioning” is a must in the Gozitan heat. “Balconies” are an absolute must when booking. I mean, what's better than enjoying the sunset after a long day? “Blackout curtains”? Another win. “Coffee/tea maker”? Essential in the morning. “Mini bar”? Yes, please. “Wi-Fi [free]”? Obvious, but worth mentioning again. “Window that opens”? YES! Fresh air is a luxury, and sometimes it's the little things that make a trip memorable. My Biggest Question: What's The Vibe?

This is the nagging question I'm left with. What kind of place is Ta' Bejza? Is it a sleek, modern oasis? A rustic, homey getaway? A bustling hub or a quiet retreat? The website doesn't quite capture it. But it gives enough details to see if it's what I want I'll find out when I actually book!

The Perfect Offer (My Attempt at Persuasion):

Escape to the Unbelievable: Unplug & Unwind at Ta' Bejza Holiday Home!

Tired of the everyday grind? Craving a getaway that's both relaxing and rejuvenating? Then say yes to a Gozitan adventure at Ta' Bejza Holiday Home!

Ta' Bejza Holiday Home - Xewkija Gozo Gozo Malta

Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into my absolutely bonkers, and probably slightly chaotic, itinerary for a week at Ta' Bejza Holiday Home in Xewkija, Gozo, Malta. Prepare for a journey that’s less “polished travel blogger” and more “slightly sunburnt, perpetually hungry, and desperately attempting to navigate the perils of public transport while fueled by pastizzi.”

The Great Gozo Getaway: A Week of Sunshine, Swearing (Probably), and Surprisingly Good Cheese

Day 1: Arrival and the Great Fridge Fiasco (aka, Settling In)

  • Morning (8:00 AM): Finally arrived! After a flight that felt like it stretched into eternity (curse you, Ryanair!), we landed in Malta. Crossing my fingers that luggage wasn't lost. The drive to the Gozo ferry was surprisingly pleasant. The anticipation was killing me, and the ferry ride? Pure bliss. The Mediterranean sun, the cool breeze…yes, please!
  • Afternoon (12:00 PM): After a slightly hairy (Gozo roads are, shall we say, intimate) drive in our rental car (let's just say I'm already regretting not opting for a smaller vehicle), we arrived at Ta' Bejza. Honestly, the place is charming. Stone walls, a little courtyard… perfect for hiding from the sun with a bottle of something chilled. Except…
  • (1:00 PM): The Fridge Fiasco. This is where things went sideways. The fridge was…off. Completely, utterly, tragically OFF. No cold beer, no chilled wine, just a warm, empty box of sadness. Cue mini-meltdown. Managed to locate the fuse box (thank goodness for my engineering-inclined husband!), and after a tense few minutes (and a few muttered curses), we got the fridge working! Victory! Reward: a celebratory Cisk beer (the local brew - and not half bad!).
  • Afternoon (3:00 PM): Grocery run! Conquering the local supermarket. Everything is in Maltese, of course. Me, armed with my phone desperately using the translation app. Let's just say, I think I accidentally bought a jar of something I really have no clue of what it is.
  • (5:00 PM): Finally, settled in. Dinner: pasta and that mystery jar thing! Praying it's edible!
  • Evening (7:00 PM): Stroll around Xewkija square. The church is ridiculously beautiful, and the atmosphere? Pure charm. Finished the night with a Pastizzi.

Day 2: Rambling Roads and Ramla Bay's Allure

  • Morning (9:00 AM): Okay, this is where the "itinerary" starts to go off the rails a bit. I planned to get up early and go for a swim, but after those celebratory Cisks last night, my body had other ideas. Eventually forced ourselves out of bed.
  • (11:00 AM): Driving. Oh, the driving. Decided to brave the Gozitan roads again. It's either an adventure or utter chaos. Today, it was both. Nearly lost my mind navigating the "one-lane-but-actually-two-cars-can-squeeze-through" roads, with a series of near-misses that involved a very grumpy farmer and his sheep.
  • (1:00 PM): Ramla Bay. This is why we came to Gozo! The red sand is stunning!. Spent the afternoon swimming, sunbathing, and generally feeling like a blissful, slightly lobster-red seal.
  • (5:00 PM): The most delightful seafood pasta at a restaurant near the beach. I can't remember the name, but the taste is immortalized in my taste buds.
  • Evening (7:00 PM): Decided to get a taxi back home. After the harrowing drive, the serenity was worth it. The driver, a local with more stories than I could count, recommended a restaurant in Xlendi.
  • (8:00 PM): Xlendi. The recommendations were worth it. Amazing, fresh seafood. We all decided to be brave enough to have a whole fish. Let's be honest, though: I’m not sure the fish was worth it.

Day 3: Ta' Pinu Basilica and A Lesson in "Going With the Flow"

  • Morning (9:00 AM): Visited the Ta' Pinu Basilica. Seriously stunning. The architecture, the atmosphere… It was genuinely moving.
  • (11:00 AM): Trying to be a "culture vulture". Driving to the Ggantija Temples.
  • Afternoon (1:00 PM): Having a nice lunch with a view of the ocean.
  • (3:00 PM): Decided that we need a break from sightseeing and to head back to the villa.
  • Evening (7:00 PM): Tried some Maltese wine. Not bad!. Another Pastizzi.

Day 4: The Azure Window’s Ghost and Dwejra Bay Dreams

  • Morning (10:00 AM): A very late wake up.
  • Afternoon (1:00 AM): Dwejra Bay. This is the spot where the Azure Window used to be, and it's still breathtaking, even without the arch. Took some amazing photos. Spent some time by the Inland Sea.
  • Evening (6:00 PM): Took a bus ride across the island.
  • Evening (8:00 PM): Pasta dish.

Day 5: Victoria Ventures, Citadella Captivations, and a Very Big Pizza

  • Morning (9:00 AM): Conquered the capital, Victoria! The Citadel is truly impressive, the views are spectacular, the history is immense.
  • (11:00 AM): Wandered through the local market. So many colours. So many smells. I am not sure where to start.
  • (1:00 PM): Lunch: The Pizza. We ordered a pizza and thought it would be a normal size. Oh, no! It was gigantic. We failed to finish it - but it was delicious.
  • Evening (7:00 PM): Another evening of pure chillaxing.

Day 6: Gozitan Gastronomy (and a Potential Hangover)

  • Morning (10:00 AM): Oh, the wine from yesterday. And the pizza feast.
  • Afternoon (1:00 PM): Decided to try to find a local farmhouse for lunch. Ordered a goat. So delicious.
  • (4:00 PM): After a big lunch, the only reasonable thing was a nap.
  • Evening (7:00 PM): We decided to have another pasta dish, and a bottle of wine.

Day 7: Farewell, Gozo (and a Promise to Return)

  • Morning (9:00 AM): A final, lingering breakfast on the courtyard. Savouring the last of the sunshine, the last of the fresh bread.
  • (11:00 AM): Headed back to the airport.
  • Afternoon (1:00 PM): Check in.
  • (2:00 PM): Flight back home

And that, my friends, is my (highly imperfect, utterly enjoyable) week in Gozo. Would I go back? Absolutely! Gozo, you magnificent, slightly chaotic, sun-drenched island, you've stolen a piece of my heart. And I'll be back for more pastizzi, more sunshine, and more adventures, I promise you that!

Unbelievable Gozo Getaway: Ta' Bejza Holiday Home Awaits! (Or Does It? Maybe...) - FAQ... Ish?

Okay, so... Ta' Bejza. Sounds fancy! What *is* it, exactly?

Alright, alright, Ta' Bejza – it's basically a holiday home in Gozo. Picture this: you, tired from whatever hustle you call life, dreaming of turquoise water, and a place to *actually* relax. That's what they *promise*. Don't get me wrong, Gozo itself is stunning. I mean, the views! The sunsets! Ugh, just thinking about the reddish glow over the sea now… sends shivers of pure, unadulterated relaxation... or maybe just the memory of all that sun. Anyway, Ta' Bejza is supposed to be *your* little slice of paradise. Think kitchen, bedrooms, maybe a pool... the usual holiday rental jazz. But paradise? Let's just say my experience was… a journey. A rollercoaster, even.

I see. So, location, location, location – where *is* this supposed haven situated?

Ah, location. Crucial! Ta' Bejza is nestled (supposedly) in a quiet part of Gozo. They say 'close to the village of Xlendi'. Close is a relative term, right? Like, "close to the volcano… if you're a really good runner." Xlendi itself is lovely, all restaurants and that gorgeous bay. Ta' Bejza, from my experience, was just… *slightly* further away than I anticipated. Made for some interesting walks, let me tell you. Good thing I packed those comfy shoes I never wear! Okay, maybe not *never*, but you know...

Alright, moving on. What about the amenities? Pool? WiFi? Is it actually civilized?

Okay, amenities. This is where things get… interesting. They advertised a pool. And yes, there *was* a pool. A slightly… *green* pool. Okay, fine. Green is the new blue, right? (No, seriously, it was a bit murky, ok? I'm not a fish, I'm not diving in that… sorry, I digress.) WiFi? Yes, technically. Sort of like saying "there's oxygen on Mars." Functional? Debatable. Downloads took longer than my attention span, which is saying something! The "kitchen" was equipped. (By equipped, I mean it had a fridge, a hob, and an assortment of mismatched utensils that looked like they'd seen better decades.) So, yes, civilization… but maybe a slightly… *rustic* version of it. Bring your own coffee maker, seriously. And a strong stomach, maybe.

Let's talk bedrooms, what kind of sleep experience can I expect here?

Bedrooms? Ah yes, this is another area where the "rustic charm" really shines through. Expect a mix of furniture that has definitely seen better days, mismatched bedding that may or may not have been washed recently (look closely, people), and a general vibe of "lived in." My bed creaked with every single movement, so if you're prone to tossing and turning, prepare for some noisy nights. Bonus points if you manage to get a room with an actual sturdy bed. Consider bringing earplugs. Seriously. And maybe a sleep mask because the curtains are... well, let's just say they do not *curtain*, ok?

Anything else I should keep in mind about this "unique" experience?

Oh boy, yes. So much. Firstly, the "welcome package" was a single bottle of lukewarm water. Not exactly champagne on arrival, now is it? Secondly, pack bug spray. Gozo is beautiful, but the local insects are also very keen on it. Thirdly, be prepared for power outages. They happen. Embrace the "unplugged" experience, I guess. And finally, if you're expecting luxury, dial back those expectations considerably. This is not a five-star resort. This is… an experience. A slightly dusty, potentially mosquito-infested, often creaky experience. But, and here's the kicker, Gozo itself? Absolutely worth it. Just… maybe stay *somewhere* else. Or, you know, pack accordingly.

What about the cleaning? Was the place clean?

Okay, alright, let's address the elephant in the room, shall we? The cleaning. "Clean" is also subjective, like 'close to the village'. I'm going to be blunt: it could have been better. I saw dust bunnies that seemed to have established colonies. Under the beds? Don't even ask. It was not the pristine, gleaming holiday home of my dreams. Let's just say I spent a significant amount of time wiping down surfaces before I dared to put anything down. My own cleaning standards are already not top tier, so you can imagine the level of disappointment as I did more of the work. Still, if you don't mind a bit of a DIY clean-up on arrival, you might survive. But I do recommend bringing cleaning supplies.

So, in a nutshell, would you recommend Ta' Bejza?

Ugh. Tough question. Here's the truth: Gozo is phenomenal. Truly. Absolutely breathtaking. Ta' Bejza… is a mixed bag. If you're on a *very* tight budget, are okay with "rustic," and don't mind a few (or a lot of) imperfections, then… maybe. If you're expecting a luxury experience, steer clear. Bring your own everything, embrace the chaos, and focus on the views. And the food. And the Gozitan people, who are incredibly lovely. Ultimately, it depends on what you're looking for! Me? Next time, I'm splurging for something with a functioning shower and less dust. But hey, I have a story, right? And that Gozitan sunset… still haunts my dreams in the best possible way.

Ok, one more thing. What's the best thing about it and what's the worst?

Alright, FINE. Best thing: the location (Gozo itself, not *specifically* the house). The view… oh sweet heavens, the view. Worst thing: the aforementioned green pool. And the creaky bed situation. Oh, and the WiFi, I think its been forever since I could actually upload things. But again, the view… that's the saving grace. See? Messy, imperfect… just like real life, huh?
