What a wonderful introduction to Crete!! Casa Evriali exceeded expectations. The apartment is very spacious and comfortable in every respect - very clean, fully functional kitchen with two large fridges (!), good breeze-way/airflow and plenty of separate living areas for family groups to relax. It is not only well designed, but beautifully fitted with lovely artwork, nice furniture, including very comfortable beds! And safe for small children. A loved and liveable family home!
Our hosts, George, Maria and Katerina really made our stay a wonderful experience! We were a group of three families and our arrivals on different days and at different times was no trouble - one flew in at 11.30pm and my parents departed at 2.30am!! but our wonderful hosts met each of us at the airport on arrival and delivered us back to the airport in time for scheduled flights.
We were welcomed to Casa Evriali with yoghurt and fruit and George's delish and smooth raki! Katerina gave us loads of advice on where to go and things to do. Her best advice was to accept George's kind offer to guide us to places in the island. They helped us organise cars for our group of 13 at very reasonable prices and then in our three short days we explored! George took us over mountains and climbing through magnificent lesser known gorges with incredible ancient ruins, but almost no other tourists. We also visited a variety of lovely beaches and heard many interesting stories from George about there history, kids certainly enjoyed the stories about pirates. George also shared his knowledge of local wines and wineries and introduced us to the best! And gave the kids the best finish to the holiday at water city! Very memorable visit...need to come back to see more if Crete! CASA EVRIALI and the hosts are highly recommended!!!
