The staff/owners went above and beyond in their attention as well as should there be any problems they with dealt with ASAP.
As our taxi airport transfer wasn’t due until 1400 hrs they allowed us to check out late obviously this is dealt with a case by case as the hotel occupancy at any one time may effect the possibility.

Gouves its a village, perhaps not as glamorous as Chania side of Crete but I liked it. Is a bit unpolished, I would say, not with that feeling of drowning under the - all included large hotel complexes and the tourist vulgo that comes with it. Its a more apartments district with greeks coming on vacations too. Plenty of taverns with prices ranging between; main courses 7-14€, drinks 5€ and cocktails 7€, breakfast 5-8€. It also has several Super markets, two of them larger with everything you need. All the above its at walking distance. 10 min with the car or moped from Gouves up inte mountains, you come to smaller villages like Hersonissos with fantastik tavernas and beautiful views.

A charming village, about 15 minutes from Heraqlion by bus (no. 2 from the airport).
Do NOT miss the Asteria taverna next to Lavris hotel: every Sunday and Tuesday a live performance of traditional Greek and Cretan music, with the beautiful Anna teaching Greek dances. It's not a tourist taveran (although there are tourists there of course) but aimed mainly for the locals. We will remember our two visits there as one of our unique experiences in Crete, and no doubt the most enjoable of them.

The day I was in Gouves the beaches were basically nonexistent due to the high tie and was very very windy. Walking along the sea was nice but given the nice beaches the island has to offer I'd rather go somewhere else or at least not stay there for long
We had a room with a shared pool and i really think that you get a lot for your money. The Hotel is huge so there are many different pools and it is located directly at the beach, which was also nice. Nearby you can find many car and scooter rentals, so it was easy to reach other cities in which we did a buggy tour or visited star beach and the aqua plus water park. Even if there was Corona the hotel made it possible to serve a buffet instead of a a la cart menu.
Beautiful small hotel, across the road from the beach and also has a good sized pool. Ideal for a relaxing family holiday. All inclusive food and drinks was lovely and great choice. The staff were all amazing and very friendly. There are shops close by but the main shopping area and restaurants are about a 15 minute walk along the prom. But if you want a relaxing holiday you have everything you need on your doorstep.
I will be returning again in the future.
Small family hotel, friendly staff, close to the beautiful beach. We have booked quite spaceous apartment which was just by the pool. Rooms were always clean, bed was comfortable, wifi and A/C in our apartment worked well. There is a possibility to take COVID test in the hotel´s premises which is a great advantage these days. Guests were mainly from Poland, Czech Republic or Russia, mostly with kids. Entertainment was twice a week.
Friendly, helpful staff.
We got bigger room with seaview.
There was welcome pack in the fridge - water, juice and fruits.
Free airport shuttle - arrived on time, fast.
All inclusive matches the price - drinks are available during day, but don't expect large selection.
Food is similar every day, but it sometimes depends on time when you arrive.
Beach is sandy, only 20 meters from the hotel.
Small kitchen in the room.
I had a truly delightful experience at Evdokia Suites Apartments in Crete. The facilities and services surpassed my expectations, leaving me thoroughly contented throughout my stay. The pristine pool added to the enjoyment, while the delicious breakfast and lunch offerings satisfied my taste buds. Additionally, the safe location provided peace of mind. I would rate my overall experience a solid 9 out of 10.
A beautiful resort 15 min from the airport, 20 min from the city center. Super convenient for families with kids. Gouves is a cute little village- yes there are stores, restaurants but the beach is an average one. We explored the local area (Malia) and found fabulous beaches around. AgiosNikolaus is an hour drive. Rental car is a must. Overall a fabulous experience.
We stayed at Villa Mika for a few nights, and can highly recommend it. Clean and spacious house with a gated garden and plenty room for parking. Perfect for families with kids, for relaxing holidays in Crete. Lots of good advice from our friendly host. Close to the beach and not to far away from shops and restaurants.
wonderful hotel, great swimming pool, breakfast and dinner a large selection, everyone will find something for themselves. Service room every day. Staff very nice and helpful, I recommend Crete spa, great relaxing massage and wonderful Kostas and Maria - thank you very much. I recommend the hotel and this place.
The apartment is perfect, so clean and excellently equipped. You can park inside, The owner is incredibly nice. The beach is only 50 meters from the apartment, Super Market, bar, coffeeshop with breakfast just a 2-minute walk on the beach. If we will go back to Crete, we will choose the TEO again. No question.
The restaurant that is also run by hotel staff was very cute. The food was delicious. This hotel was well worth the inexpensive price! The room was very clean and modern. Beautiful view of Mediterranean Sea!
the property was beautiful, there was nothing I would change and it had everything we needed.
if I went back to Crete 100% I would stay again.
The food was amazing and freshly made every single day.
Gazebo on the beach and near the pool were quite comfortable and free.
Rooms with a pool are quite cool, though note that it’s shared with 2 other rooms.
Hotel design is good.
Private beach.
Nice apartments, new, spacious and clean. Very friendly and helpfull owner - Sonia, who made sure we have the nicest experiences in Crete. Sea at your footstep, everything you need is nearby.
