Elias’s place acted as a great base in Rhodes. The house and pool were very clean and the beach was very close! Kolymbia is a quiet, relaxed area which was just what we wanted. Tanya the cleaner was very friendly and helpful and welcomed us on arrival. Also it was nice that Elias came and introduced himself to us personally. I would recommend visiting Lindos and Rhodes old town, there is a bus stop outside Atlantica Aegean Blue Hotel which was not expensive. I would recommend getting a taxi to the biggest supermarket called Flevaris on the first day as all the nearby supermarket sold souvenirs rather than substantial food items. I would recommend visiting the authentic Greek restaurant opposite the apartments ‘Olive Grove’ the owners were very accommodating.
