Rhodes View Villa

Rhodes View Villa is on the outskirts of Rhodes Town. It sits in a peaceful spot overlooking the coast. Rhodes is renowned for its Blue Flag Beaches, so you won’t have any trouble choosing a sunbathing spot. Whether you’re taking a cooling dip, playing with the kids or relaxing with your favourite holiday read, there are beachfront bars and seafood stands to keep you going through the day, too.

The cosmopolitan centre of Rhodes with its old and new town is a must-visit, and is within easy reach of the villa. The UNESCO-listed old town is one of the best-preserved Medieval towns in Europe. You can walk along the narrow paved streets, visit the impressive Venetian Castle and the Byzantine churches or stroll around the charming old port. There’s also a museum there with fascinating artefacts. For another fun day trip, you could make tracks for the Valley of Butterflies – a lush canyon that’s home to a myriad of beautiful butterfly species. Rhodes is also a fantastic place to shop and try local Greek cuisine like fresh seafood and mezes. If you fancy a heavier hit of retail therapy, you can drive about 50 minutes from Rhodes to Lindos. The former fishing village turned pretty town hides jewellers and boutiques among its network of narrow lanes. Look out for the island’s famous decorative plates or fresh local produce for cooking up a storm back at the villa. The town is also renowned for its stunning clifftop acropolis. There you can immerse yourself in ancient history at the monumental temple, castle and church.
