A beautiful, peaceful villa in a great location. Village of Lardos is truly a seven minute walk away, with some nice restaurants (Roulas was our favourite), a couple of bakeries, two bars, pharmacy and supermarkets. Also there is an excellent butcher and fishmonger, if you like to barbecue! House is very well equipped and plenty of space for relaxing in the sun. Pool is great, bigger than it looks in the pictures!
There is plenty to do on the island, best to hire a car if you want to explore, our favourites beaches were Haraki, Tsambika and the amazing St Paul's bay. Also can highly recommend a drive to the south of the island via Monolithos and the wine route, stopping to try some local wines at the Emery winery, only half an hours drive from the villa. Lindos is great, with lots of bars and restaurants but busy and parking can be challenging. Much easier if you go in late afternoon or by taxi from Lardos village square for about 15 euros each way.
If you are looking for a quieter Rhodes experience away from the package tourist areas, this villa is ideal and Chris and his local host contact, Gerd were really helpful throughout our stay.
