Perched in the quiet village of Għarb on the Maltese island of Gozo, Ta’ Ċikku Farmhouse offers an authentic getaway that balances handcrafted charm with modern comforts. Operated by Atlantis Diving Centre, this stone-built residence stands apart from typical accommodations surrounding the island’s rugged coastline and diving hubs. The farmhouse’s exterior, fashioned from local stone and paved with distinctive Gozitan marble, echoes the landscape’s enduring geology — a testament to Gozo’s rich natural heritage.
Inside, Ta’ Ċikku glows with warmth and character. Custom rustic furniture, designed and painted by Pantera Lucchese, brings artisanal quality to every room. Four ensuite bedrooms spread across three floors provide privacy and space for up to eight guests, each outfitted with air-conditioning, perfect for Gozo’s Mediterranean climate. A bright living area looks out onto a shimmering pool and jacuzzi, while a fireplace and poolside BBQ area invite social evenings after days spent adventuring.
Għarb itself is a gateway to natural wonders — the monumental Wied il-Mielaħ arch, just minutes away, cuts through towering cliffs sculpted by sea and wind over millennia. The peaceful village atmosphere, coupled with easy access to Marsalforn town with its restaurants and shops, makes this farmstead a rare haven: secluded yet connected.
Guests of Atlantis Diving Centre benefit from combined outdoor pursuits—diving excursions into vibrant underwater ecosystems and quiet rural retreats that promote genuine relaxation. Car hire can be arranged to explore Gozo’s dramatic coastline, hidden bays, and historical sites at your own pace.
