Evi Studios and Apartments

We stopped in apartment 302, a 2 bed 2 bathroom huge place with a sofa bed for a 5th person. It's typically Greek style basic accommodation, but very clean with all that you need. We did bring a tea towel, bottle opener, corkscrew and washing up liquid, advised by another review that these were lacking in the kitchen. It's no good coming here expecting a 5 star kitchen to cook a 3 course meal, since the kitchen facilities really won't stretch to that! Think sandwiches, snacks and picky meze on your terrace. Everything suited us just fine with a 30 second walk to a lovely little sandy cove, what a beautiful view! Air conditioning is expensive, should you need it, although we didn't need any due to it being end of September. In room 302, since there were 2 air conditioning units, it worked out about £200 for a week! You can also pay daily if you prefer. It's only a 5 minute walk to the main Street, with tons of restaurants and bars, and also side streets leading to larger beaches. Lovely pool here too, although quite small, with a lovely bar with food and snacks right next to it. I would recommend this accommodation, in fact if I was stopping in pefkos again, then I would stop at Evi's! If you like large fancy hotels with lots of mod cons then this isn't the place for you! (No hairdryers either!!)

We stayed in a studio at Evi for a week in early September. We arrived very early in the morning (2am-ish?) and Taz and Ange were waiting for us to arrive with a smile on their faces. The rooms are absolutely in need of an upgrade, but suited us just fine for a week's stay. The beds aren't the comfiest, and there's not much in the way of a kitchen, but it's fine for preparing sandwiches and the like. Cleaners are brilliant. Didn't expect them to be in everyday, but they were and did a fab job. The pool area is lovely, always plenty of beds. Love the waterfall :) Location is perfect for Pefkos main street, lots of lovely bars and restaurants within a 5 minute walk. Definitely recommend Karma, Terpsis, Three Pigs, and Nostalgia. Our favourite bar was Zig Zag :) It was nice to have a nightcap in the Med Bar before heading to bed. Taz's music taste is fab :) Overall, it is in need of updating but I wouldn't hesitate to stay at Evi again.

If you're looking for a Greek break in the unspoilt town of Pefkos, Rhodes, then look no further than Evi Studios. Whilst the studios are very small and in all honesty, could benefit from a makeover, especially the tiny bathroom and kitchen area, you would be greatly attracted to this complex for the fun, location and hospitality shown by Taz, Angie, Babs and Evi. Very accommodating and always smiling. Beds are extremely comfortable. These apartments maintain a perfect location that backs out on to a number of beaches and coves, along with a reasonably priced beach bar. The beach is accessed via an olive, lime and pomegranate tree pathway. Sea temperature in September was perfect..about 23 degrees. It should be noted that air conditioning is charged separately at €75 per week, along with €30 for a safe, if required by Evi. The apartments are much bigger than the studios so it's space you need, opt for these. All in all, the complex requires enhancements, but the stay nonetheless will be more than enjoyable if you are ok with the additional charges and small studio. It's also situated off the main Lardos to Lindos road. Lindos can be reached by public bus or by taxi for 9 EUR. Would definitely return...though hope the studio accommodation improves.
