With beautiful sea views due to its proximity to Lothiarika Beach, Villa Lardos has an impressive amount of outdoor space including a large, private swimming pool. This tranquil villa is suitable for up to 10 guests and lies just steps away from the beach. You’ll love its expansive terrace with lounge seating facing the ocean and the magnificent pool. You have sun loungers, parasols and a large barbecue, as well as a covered dining area, all in an idyllic setting on Rhodes’ southern coast. The villa is within a 10-minute drive of local amenities in Pefkos, where there are supermarkets, bars and restaurants, and Lindos, home of the clifftop Lindos Acropolis. Numerous beaches line the coast down to Pefkos, offering plenty of choice, but none are closer than Lothiarika Beach, found right outside your villa. With sandy and pebble areas, this beach has bars and restaurants nearby, and you can take a boat trip up to Lindos in just a few minutes. Inside, the house features a light and airy lounge with direct access to the terrace where you have another covered dining area. You’ll have ample seating and a flat-screen TV, and air-conditioning to keep you comfortable. The adjacent kitchen area is well equipped, with a dishwasher, microwave, oven and fridge freezer. The property is equipped with free Wi-Fi too. The villa features four bedrooms, three of which have double beds. The fourth features a cabin-style bed with step access, big enough to accommodate a few younger guests. There are two bathrooms with showers at Villa Lardos, one of which also accommodates a washing machine. Perfectly situated for enjoying the best of the island, the villa is around one hour’s drive from Diagoras International Airport and the town of Rhodes itself, located on the isle’s north-eastern tip. The Old Town, where the big attraction is the UNESCO World Heritage site, Palace of the Grand Masters, is certainly worth a visit. Other possibilities for excursions include the beautiful Epta Piges nature reserve with its seven springs, The Valley of the Butterflies, and the beaches of Faliraki, Afantou and Archangelos – just some of those which line the eastern coast of the island. With some stunning areas of natural beauty, as well as a fascinating history, Rhodes rewards exploration, and every part of the island is within reach of your villa’s beachfront location in Lardos. Features: The Villa Boasting garden views, Villa Lardos features accommodation with a shared lounge, a garden and barbecue facilities, around 1.6 miles from Pefki Beach. This beachfront property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi.

Full of scenic beaches and sites of natural beauty, it’s a joy to discover. You’ll find the eastern coast lined with a number of fine beaches and, at the northernmost point, the town and capital that shares the island’s name. The city of Rhodes is known for its architecturally impressive Old Town, one of the largest and best-preserved medieval towns in all of Europe. The big attraction is the Palace of the Grand Masters, a former fortress and citadel that forms part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. Walking the old city walls is also well worth your time. The jumbled streets of Rhodes host many some worthwhile attractions. You can uncover the history of Rhodes at the Archaeological Museum, or try The Museum of Modern Greek Art. Landmarks such as Evangelismós Cathedral can also be found in town. Down the coast from Rhodes is the resort of Faliraki. If the name rings alarm bells, don’t worry, it’s calmed down quite a bit in recent years. One of Faliraki’s highlights is the family-friendly beach, and a good water-park adds to the fun too. Other ideas for family days out include the Toy Museum near the village of Archipoli, which showcases Greek toys from down the decades – it’s free to visit and in a lovely location. The Bee Museum of Rhodes is the only one of its kind in Greece, and a fine place to discover all things bee (and buy some yummy honey too). Other key sights include the Lindos Acropolis, the ancient ruins of which are situated on the clifftop at Lindos and therefore offer spectacular views of the Mediterranean. The Valley of the Butterflies is also noteworthy, situated west of Faliraki. South of the town is one of the island’s best-loved beaches, the idyllic Anthony Quinn Bay, a fine place to go snorkelling. About 15 minutes’ drive from there, the flowing Epta Piges (Seven Springs) offer another magnificent sight you can squeeze into one day. You can swim in the lake and enjoy the natural beauty of this iconic Rhodes attraction. If you’re after nightlife, you’re in the right place – Rhodes town and Lindos both offer a range of clubs and bars, and the latter has some luxurious rooftop restaurants overlooking the Lindos Acropolis too. Even the quieter parts of the island usually have some nice beach bars to check out, with Pefkos a good choice for an evening with the family. If you’ve no such concerns, Rhodes’ Orfanidou Street is considered party central.
