We stayed at Lefteris' apartment for a week in August. The location was perfect to explore Rhodes Island but, at the same time, to keep away from the most crowded spots. Although Lefteris wasn't in Rhodes when we got there, he was constantly in touch with us, making sure everything was alright. His nice mother welcomed us and offered us fruit from their garden (grapes, figs and pears). The apartment was clean and comfortable. Above all, it was very quiet and very close to Afandou beach (which is similarly peaceful and not crowded at all, even in August).
The town of Afandou is also a very short drive from the apartment and you can find everything you need there, from supermarkets to pharmacy and restaurants.
We definitely recommend Rodia Apartments 2.
