Great week
Great week, enjoyed by all. Lovely property and host. Was as good, if not better, than on the online listing. My only tip would be to make sure you have cars. There is not much in the immediate vicinity, although lots of local taxis.

Tolles Haus und Tolle Gastgeber
Wir haben 3 Wochen als Firma von Kreta aus gearbeitet. Hierfür waren Evilio Suites eine perfekte Location. Auch die Gastgeber waren wundervoll und haben sich sehr gut um uns gekümmert. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Sehr nette Vermieterin
Die Vermieterin war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und war stets für einen da. Sie half uns zum Supermarkt zu kommen, fuhr uns und holte uns ab, da wir keine Autos hatten. Wenn was fehlte war sie sofort bereit zu helfen.

Great stay at Evilio!
We came as a family of 15 adults and 10 children from the age of 0 upp to 12. The house was perfect for a big group of family! Beautiful modern rooms with high quality. You have everything you need in the rooms (beside a guardobe). The outdoor area is perfect for family, big kitchen, a lot of seatings, chairs, sunbeds and the host even provided us with toys for the children. The pool size was great. Good location close to Rethymno and you have supermarket, farmacy close to the house. Valia was an amazing host checking up on us if we needed anything, quick in answering, very hostile, polite and serviceminded. It was a great experience for us and we would highly recomend this place! Best of luck!
