Property information

Travel back in time with a stay in this historical house of character in Gozo’s charming capital Rabat. Shambala is a 900-year-old home, beautifully restored yet still brimming with traditional features – some so rare it’s a stop on several walking tours of Gozo. You’ll find Shambala peacefully situated along a network of beautiful cobbled walkways, themselves a fascinating slice of Gozitan history.

Neighbourhood information

Not only are you just around the corner from the famous St George’s Pjazza and Independence Square, both with a great selection of bars, restaurants, galleries and shops; but you are also a short walk away from the central bus station where you can easily connect to other attractions on the island. Amenities and attractions nearby: Several corner-shops and groceries St George’s Pjazza (Square) Independence Square Teatru Astra (opera house) Citadel Central bus terminus Supermarkets: Greens and Arkadia Top five suggested activities: 1. Go for an early morning walk around the cobbled lanes of Rabat before enjoying a coffee in one of the many local cafes; 2. Watch the world go by while eating lunch in Independence Square; followed by some souvenir shopping in Organika, House of Gozo or Preti Artigjanali. 3. Explore the fascinating history of Gozo with a walk around the Citadel followed by a visit to the Il Hagar Museum; 4. Visit one of the nearby art galleries, such as Art Hall, the Upstairs Gallery, and Art e Gallery. 5.
