Penelope Apartments is a real gem in Xlendi. Perched at the highest point of the valley, it offers some of the most spectacular views in the area, overlooking both the valley and the bay. Having breakfast on the spacious terrace was an unforgettable experience. In the morning, the terrace remains pleasantly shaded while the sun is still on the opposite side of the valley, making it the perfect place to enjoy the stunning scenery. Evenings were equally special, sitting on the terrace with a glass of wine and taking in the peaceful atmosphere. The apartment itself is very spacious, comfortable, and exceptionally clean. It is well equipped with everything one might need for a relaxing stay. There is also a convenient shortcut via a staircase just around the corner, providing direct access down to the bay. Xlendi is a small and charming village where everything is within easy reach, including restaurants, shops, and public transport connections to the rest of Gozo. The apartment offers excellent value for money, and the owner is extremely welcoming, attentive, and responsive, regularly checking to make sure everything is going well. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would definitely choose Penelope Apartments again on my next visit to Gozo.

Appartment was beautifully clean, kitted out, spacious and well maintained. Host was generous with some drinks in the fridge. Kitchen fully stocked for self catering as required. High balcony with view.

Xlendie maybe wasn't for us - but that's our fault as we didn't look into it enough (slightly older couple, off season (February), not much there - or open). Likely suits younger ones for a week or more of summer action/fun etc etc. later in the year. Not the end of the world though as only a short bus ride into Victoria.

Modern with a view. Comfortable with all amenities

No table in dining area. Found it a bit hard to manage with kids. (To be fair there was an outdoor plastic table, but was always wet due to rain)

Nice apartment with great balcony and view of Xlendi Bay with fantastic sunsets. Note however very little sun on the balcony which was fine for us. Quite large apartment and very large bedroom with comfortable Queen bed quiet and good AC. Separate Laundry room with door with a washer and drying rack and soap provided. Kitchen with gaz stove top, electric oven, large refrigerator, toaster. No automatic coffee machine. They have a single percolator you can use. A kettle for the stove top as well. Great AC in the living room as well. Wifi was great in the living room and on the balcony but was very bad in the bedroom. Parking on street directly 20 meters away from apartment. Xlendi Bay has many good restaurants with amazing sunset views and it has many walking/small hikes and water activities to do directly from the beach area. Nice cozy little village to use a base in Gozo.

Quite a strong moldy smell in the staircase. I ran the AC on TURBO with external air intake to get the smell out of the apartment which worked. FYI, the apartment is 43 steps from the street level (no lift) and about 200 steps from the beach which was ok for us and good exercise but could be a problem for some.
