Rhodes – Where to stay

Ixia and Ialysos contain the largest and most resort-like hotels in Rhodes. The area offers little else beyond the hotels – so you should only choose it if you want a good hotel and also have your own transport (car or motorbike) to get around the island.

The next option, especially if you don't have your own transport, is the old – Medieval – town. There you will find all the island's life with bars, tavernas, nightlife venues, and shops for your personal shopping.

The island is quite large and has plenty to see – so you shouldn't stay in just one place.

Rhodes – What to see

Among the most important sights in Rhodes to see are the Palace of the Grand Master, the famous Colossus of Rhodes, the Acropolis of Rhodes, and the island's archaeological museum.

Then you should visit Lindos, and of course, if you're not staying in the island's centre, you should explore the old Medieval town.

If you visit Rhodes in summer, from late June to the end of September, you will witness something unique: in the biotope near Kalamonas, cocoons open and caterpillars transform into butterflies, in a dreamlike setting!

Don't miss it if you happen to be on the island of Rhodes during those days.

Finally, we have the island's beaches, which are a must-visit in themselves. Take your car and start exploring the dozens of beaches on the island. Anthony Quinn Bay, Agios Pavlos beach (always crowded), Afandou beach, and of course the less touristy beaches like Vlycha beach and Agathi beach.
