My stay at this hotel had both ups and downs. The scenery and tranquility of the grounds provided a beautiful escape, making it easy to relax. However, the service left much to be desired, and some of the facilities seemed outdated. I appreciated the spaciousness of the accommodations but struggled with the air conditioning issues. Overall, while the gardens and outdoor spaces were lovely, the gaps in service and maintenance were disappointing.

I had a lovely holiday at this resort, enjoying the beautiful surroundings and the relaxing atmosphere it offers. The staff was attentive and helpful, making my stay more enjoyable. The pool and spa facilities were great, but I did notice that while some areas of the hotel were recently refurbished to a high standard, a few rooms could use some updates to match. Overall, it's a solid 4-star hotel that's well worth the stay, especially for the stunning walks and scenery that Gozo has to offer.

My stay at Ta Cenc was mixed. The scenery is stunning and the tranquil atmosphere really is a draw. However, the food quality has taken a nosedive and the rooms are in dire need of an upgrade. It's a shame because this place has potential to be amazing but is currently lacking in several key areas.

Rooms

The hotel boasts a beautiful setting that enhances relaxation, with spacious lounge areas and access to local attractions. However, my experience was marred by issues with room quality and inconsistent service. While some staff were delightful, others seemed to lack training in addressing complaints, and the condition of certain rooms left much to be desired. The facilities, particularly the pool, were nice but overall maintenance could be significantly improved.

Rooms

My room felt like a small flat, spacious and comfortable with a nice view of the pool, but the cleanliness and upkeep of other rooms appeared to be significantly lacking. This inconsistency in room quality is concerning.
Service

While some staff were very helpful, I encountered a few who were quite dismissive of my concerns, particularly regarding the Wi-Fi issue I faced during my stay.
Location

The location is quite lovely, nestled in the Gozo countryside, making it easy to explore nearby attractions, although the maintenance of the surrounding grounds needs to be prioritized.
Dining

Breakfast was decent, with a fair variety, but the overall dining experience could have been better organized to enhance enjoyment.
Facilities

The pools were clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant space for relaxation, but the overall condition of furniture around the pool area detracted from the experience.
