I originally booked to stay at Evolve for a month and ended up staying 13 months! This was my first coliving experience and exceeded my expectations. It was exactly what I needed for moving to a new country without knowing anyone, and I would recommend this place to anyone else doing the same. The community is truly amazing. Everyone is so warm, friendly, and welcoming - within a week, it felt like I was part of a family. Some people stayed more long term like me, while others stayed just a month or two, which was a good mix. Many also returned because they enjoyed it so much the first time round. The vibe changes when people come and go but there was never a bad group. I've made lasting friendships and I really can't emphasize enough how incredible this experience has been because of the people. The location is great, mid way between Sliema and St Julians. You can walk 20ish minutes downhill to either if it's not the height of summer (note: uphill on the way back!). San Gwann is quiet and there are plenty of shops/cafes around, including supermarkets and grocery stores. There are several bus stops nearby. Bolt/Uber is good value and can even be cheaper than buses if you're in a big group. Cleaners clean the common areas 6 days a week, which is definitely necessary in a house of this size and with so many people. Personally, one thing I really appreciated was that I became a cat mom during my stay and Matt and Ola supported that. To give a well-rounded review, I also need to be honest about the negatives - nowhere is perfect. Things break a lot: dishwashers, laundry facilities, Internet, vaccuum cleaners, pool filter, jacuzzi, coffee machine, fireplace, air conditioners, electricity outages, rain through the windows... sometimes it felt like as soon as one thing is fixed, it sets something else off. This isn't Matt and Ola's fault - some of this is just how things in Malta are built and getting good labour to properly fix the issues is harder than you think, however it was frustrating over time. For internet, it's best to come with your own backup or get a good data package, just in case. Noise: the way the house is built means that noise really travels. The doors can slam and get really noisy, especially when it's windy. Also, beds so squeaky. So. Squeaky. Mosquitos: they love me; they also love the house. Winter is fine, but from May-November they are around. If you're prone to bites, make sure you keep your room windows and doors closed, especially early morning and evening/night, and pick up spray, burners, candles, plug-ins etc. Mosquito nets would be a great upgrade. Having experienced a full year, I can say that it's a very different experience in the winter vs summer but both were great and had their benefits. Summer was all about bbqs, pool dips, dancing on the roof, late night drinks etc. Winter was quieter with cozy movie nights, more shared meals, game nights, activities like lazer tag and escape rooms, and hiking on the weekends. Overall, I loved my stay at Evolve. I'll cherish the memories and friendships made, keep in touch, and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

I really love this house and would highly recommend it to anyone who is thinking of booking. The house itself has everything you need - a large kitchen which is very well equipped, large communal areas, a pool and a large rooftop terrace. Importantly, you can work comfortably in your room as each room has a desk and desk chair, but if you prefer to work around others, there is also plenty of comfortable co-working space. The location is good too - only a few mins walk to a supermarket and you can walk / take a taxi very cheaply to other surrounding towns. The house is really clean, which surprised me given how many people are living there. The best part of staying here is the community - the people I've met here will be friends for life. It's so nice to be surrounded by like-minded people and always having someone around to join you exploring the island / partying / watching a movie / whatever you fancy. All in all - I would highly recommend staying here. I've already stayed twice and would happily return again.

Matt and Ola have created something really awesome here! A space to live but in luxury style! With a carefully selected house of awesome people and amenities, if you're planning on spending some time in Malta, check out the Evolve Co-living Community!

Best coliving I've been. Absolutely fantastic Villa. Everything absolutely clean. Met a great community which I stay on contact with. Would definitely recommend.

This was my first time at a co living and I'm sure those who would be nervous or unsure to try the experience should definitely give evolve a try. I had one of the largest rooms in the house with its own terrace, kitchenette, and bathroom. It's great that the house has options for those that want a bit more of their own space while taking advantage of the other benefits of co living, as well as cheaper options without. The house itself is as pictured, massive and beautiful with great chill out spots throughout. I pretty much lived at the beautiful pool. The common areas were kept well cleaned and maintained, and best of all if there was anything that needed fixing or maintaining Matt and Ola immediately took care of it upon request. In my month there I saw them continually improving the house and taking real pride in creating a space for residents, from building a pool pergola to buying new comfortable chairs for the Coworking space to just painting things! Not to mention on top of everything else, the feeling of community and getting to know people that the place offers. I made great friends both in White House and the 2nd house they own in Sliema, as there are weekly dinners to bring the two households together. While there are no events planned it's usually easy to find others at the house to do something or plan your own event (I planned a catamaran rental trip for the houses that was awesome). For those that want a new experience, that want to connect with other fascinating individuals from around the world, and that aren't afraid to learn new things about themselves, what a cool and unique experience this is that I would wholeheartedly recommend! Thanks again to Matt and Ola for their dedication to this project and for also just being cool people :)
