| LOCATION | Top |
At the centre of the Mediterranean, just south of Sicily, there is Gozo. Malta's little sister, is an unspoilt island with green hills, dramatic cliffs and secluded bays surrounded by water of the deepest blue.
The Kempinski Hotel San Lawrenz, a leading Mediterranean hideaway resort, is located in one of the picturesque valleys of this beautiful island. This five-star destination, which is surrounded by 30 000 m² of gardens and three outdoor pools, was built entirely from Maltese limestone in a traditional hunting-lodge style.
It is there on an island that traces back its culture to 4000 BC with ancient villages where the pace is made for relaxation.
The hotel provides a Complimentary shuttle service at pre-arranged times to the major beaches and attractions of the Island.
Compared to Malta, the flourishing centre of commerce and tourist activity, life in Gozo is tranquil, yet in touch with the world. International Airlines run services to Malta International Airport, which can be reached within 90 minutes by car and ferry or even in 15 minutes by helicopter.
