Location
About the surrounding area of Ramla Red HouseLocated next to The Lavender House, The Prickly Pear House and The Marigold House.

Whilst guests may relax and feel disconnected, Ramla Red House is situated just off the main road to one of the most sought-after areas on the island; the UNESCO World Heritage Site of ‘Dwejra’.
The Ramla Red House is situated in the western part of Gozo, in the charming traditional village of San Lawrenz. This picturesque village has succeeded in retaining its traditional, rural lifestyle, making it the perfect place to stay in Gozo. San Lawrenz has an array of shops and restaurants serving delicious Gozitan food and wine. From the village square in San Lawrenz, visitors can take the road down to Dwejra Bay where history lovers will enjoy discovering old chapels and learn about the well-preserved watch tower which dates all the way back to 1652. Dwejra also boasts of several natural wonders, foremost of which is ‘Fungus Rock’, the ‘Azure Window’ and the ‘Inland Sea’.
Enjoy the slower pace of life and soak up the Gozitan sun. Just a short distance away you will find Xlendi Beach. The crystal clear waters overlooked by cliffs makes the perfect setting. Spend the days swimming, snorkelling or even diving. In fact, Gozo is known as a popular diving spot, great for first timers and experienced divers too. Swim with schools of colourful fish through the networks of undersea caves and sunken WWII bombers! Ramla Bay is another must visit, featuring long stretches of striking red sand with dotted stones and a craggy backdrop young children will enjoy playing on the beach and splashing in the water under the watchful eyes of lifeguards. Options for water sports here are never ending… paddleboarding, kayaking, tubing, wakeboarding or water-skiing!
There are some great hikes on Gozo that let you see the peaceful countryside, peppered with remarkable geological features begging to be explored. Enjoy the hike from Xaghra to Rambla Bay or challenge yourselves and hike up to the Sanap Cliffs. Each hike is bound to reward you with captivating views. Afterwards, find a spot to eat some delicious, fresh Gozitan food. The locals are well known for their incredible hospitality, encouraging visitors to come back time and time again.
With natural wonders, ancient ruins and delicious food, there is something for every guest – it truly is the perfect holiday destination.

Best Suited For: All AgesGozo is the ideal destination for a family holiday. With the island being small, everywhere in Gozo is just a stone’s throw away, making car journeys quick and easy.
Ramla Red House is perfect for families! Spend the day soaking up the sun on one of the loungers whilst the kids splash around in your very own private pool. Head up to the large roof terrace, cook up a feast on the charcoal grill and eat in the cool shade under the gazebo. Watch the sunset with a drink of your choice and admire the views. In the cooler winter evenings, kids can enjoy cuddling up on the sofas in front of the roaring fire, watching TV. Upstairs, there are two lovely bedrooms with two single beds each and a balcony overlooking the pool, perfect for children to share. These two comfortable bedrooms share the family bathroom. For larger groups, the children may sleep on the two sofa beds in the living room.
Nearby, Xlendi Bay is a firm family favourite amongst many for it’s a perfect option for young children with its shallow and still waters. For the more adventurous, snorkelling or diving are also popular activities at Xlendi Bay!
Experience the thrill of an action-packed holiday and go mountain biking, kayaking, clifftop hiking and even horse riding! Alternatively, embrace the history, culture and stories that entertain young and adults alike. Visit the megalithic temples at Ġgantija, and the recently restored Il-Kastell fortress towering above the capital of Gozo, Victoria!
For a more laid-back adventure, take a boat ride and tour the coast. You can get to dive and swim at many idyllic spots or you can opt to sail out to Comino, the island that captures the imagination of many. If you’re interested in exploring the island we suggest that you plan a day and return to Gozo at sunset.
