Thu, 22 May 2008 08:11:22 GMT

I have been to Rhodes many times in the past and I love it. Last time was this summer. I always try to spent as many days as possible and I think I could spend the rest of my life on this island... The Old Town is my favorite place, along with the Waterland Park at Faliraki, it is so fun. If you are on the island, you definetely not miss Kalithea, the valley with the Butterflies, the Castle, L...

Thu, 22 May 2008 08:11:22 GMT

Something didn't think of, was to take enough clothes to pass the 2 weeks, so i had to do my laundry somewhere, something really frustrating, the laundromats have been not so "pretty" there! Especially when my favorite blue jeans terned white!! At last after some research i found a laundry service that i could trust! A very clean place that provided excellent and super fast service, with very...

Hello! I am Andrea and I have spent my holidays in Rhodes during last August. I am from Italy and I have been several times to Greek islands and in mainland, too, in the last 20 years. I chose the plane to get to the island, it has short connections from Athens airport.
Rhodes town is very attractive as a historical site, monuments well conserved but: too much crowd in August, shops, hote...

Where do you begin? the weather? the people? the place? Well, the weather hits you first; not a cloud in site the warm breeze hits your body in a nice way; smell the olives; you start to feel relaxed right away; then you meet the people; why was I not born here they are so relaxed right away the well-being starts to work its magic; Rhodes itself is a delight the jewel in the crown. If you want ...

General: Just Come and Enjoy

Thu, 22 May 2008 08:11:22 GMT

There is probably something for everyone on the island. There are traditional Rhodian villages, excellent beaches, good main town, excellent bus system, friendly people, good nightlife if you want that sort of thing. We have found that most Greek Taverns are excellent but on Rhodes we found one that was superb (the best we have found). That was in the village of Lardos. Absolutely faultless. I...

Hello, my name is Terry Mc Mullan and I'm British. I'm 40 years old and I've visited up to 10 countries. The last one was the island of Rhodes. I arrived on the island by Plane with Thomas cook.

General: Cosmopolitan and beautiful

Thu, 22 May 2008 08:11:22 GMT

I really liked Rhodes not only for its numerous beauties but also for its cosmopolitan character and atmosphere.
I found a splendid and very luxurious hotel at Faliraki where my wife and daughters were thrilled with the irreproachable service, the terrific view and the wonderful swimming pool. We had a long sandy beach at 10 minutes away and all the facilities we needed (excellent restau...

General: What a beautiful place

Thu, 22 May 2008 08:11:22 GMT

The island of Rhodes was a revelation for me. I felt in love with the magnificent medieval city, with the rich architecture, with the landscape and, of course, with the endless beaches and their clear waters.
I took 2 days to discover the many beauties of the capital and then I rented a room in the lovely village of Lindos which is another marvel; it is a small town built on the slopes o...

General: Impressed by the town of Rhodes

Thu, 22 May 2008 08:11:22 GMT

My wife and I visited Rhodes this June. We had a very good time and were very impressed by the capital and by the quantity and beauty of the beaches.
We had booked a superb studio which was right in the heart of the medieval capital, in a wonderful house. So we had all the time to wonder in the narrow streets of the City of Rhodes and admire the complexity and wonders of the medieval archite...
