We travelled as a family of 6 people (My parents, my wife and our two young children) and we had a lovely time at Sofia's place on the beautiful Island of Chalki. I would thoroughly recommend taking the trip over from Kameiros Skala for a few days to enjoy the wonderfully picturesque port and attractive cobbled streets behind it.
Sofia's place has been well renovated and had everything we needed for a relaxing 3 night break. We enjoyed eating on the terrace and the kids enjoyed the 5 minute walk to Podamos beach, which although small and with a raised section for the sunbeds (€5 for two and an unbrella for the day, next to a friendly restaurant / cafe) it has warm water in an attractive bay with sand underfoot after a small layer of rocks.
Sofia's mother lived downstairs and was kind to us, cooking traditional Greek pancakes and giving us some homemade marmelade. Sofia arranged for our bags to be collected from the ferry although to be honest its about 150 paces from the front up to the house so not really required, but a considerate thought.
We hope to return and would definitely recommend this place for anyone planning a holiday on Rhodes in search of a low key and beautiful harbour setting without all the traffic and noise.
