Arrived for a week at the start of the children’s summer holidays. Not busy or full of children. Food was great at all meals with plenty of choice. All inclusive was from 1030 until 2230 meaning that the hotel became pretty quiet after this time mind you if you wanted to pay for drinks the bar remained open until midnight. The staff were brilliant and couldn’t do enough for you. At dinner time very attentive and always on hand to top up your empty glasses. Wi-Fi is free and ok by pool, food and bar areas but very limited in the rooms. We stayed in 207 which was the second block away from the pool and Wi-Fi signal didn’t reach. If using Vodafone Gr. there is very poor mobile signal at the hotel. As has been mentioned by other reviews the planes do fly very close to the hotel. Great if an airplane enthusiast. After a day you forget about the noise as the aircraft are in frequent. Air Con essential in rooms and cost 7 euros a day As our 7 day break comes to an end I would 100% recommend this hotel for a great chilled relaxing break

“Great hotel with lovely staff and food”

Wonderful family run hotel 15 minutes from Rhodes airport. The hotel is beautiful, clean and the staff were wonderful. I am vegetarian and there was loads of choice for meals (lots of home cooked veg dishes and lovely salads, rice, pasta). We were all inclusive and in the past have found it a struggle for good veggie food options but the food here was the best I've had on an all inclusive. Nice stoney beach 10 mins walk up the road with a gorgeous sunset. The hotel is quite remote so if you're wanting to do lots of exploring be prepared to order a taxi, bus or walk a distance. There is a bus that goes from the hotel for 3 euros which only took card. 45mins on the bus to Rhodes old town (medieval walled city) which I highly recommend visiting. This hotel is great if you're wanting to lounge around the pool and relax which was perfect for us. The planes go over the hotel but it absolutely didn't effect us and you forget they're going over after a day. It was actually really cool to see them taking off. Greek night on Thursday evening was very entertaining with traditional greek food, music and dance. We highly recommend this hotel! Thank you Vallian Village!

“Clean, friendly, but isolated”

We booked this hotel because the reviews were amazing. We paid a lot more than we were going to. Don’t get me wrong most of the people who work here are amazing. They work long hours and always with a smile. BUT it is right on the end of the runway. The planes go about 5 minutes at night, you stop … more

We booked this hotel because the reviews were amazing. We paid a lot more than we were going to. Don’t get me wrong most of the people who work here are amazing. They work long hours and always with a smile. BUT it is right on the end of the runway. The planes go about 5 minutes at night, you stop your conversation when they go over, because of the noise. It is just in the middle of nowhere. When I met another guest they asked me if the place came alive at night - no it doesn’t! There is nothing else here. The closest town is not easily walkable, the road is fast and dangerous. There are no bars, and the sign for the seafood restaurant must have been there several years ago- there isn’t one! The sea is so clear and beautiful, but you’ve never seen rubbish like it on a beach. Such a shame because it’s a breathtaking place. The sunset is amazing. The food was very basic. It was all well kept and clean. The waiting staff were fab. Not lots of choice though. All cocktails tasted the same! Wine was awful tbf. You’ll be ok if you hire a car because everything is a good 45 mins away. Evening entertainment was a Greek night once a week. You can’t hear them for the planes!

“Nice hotel - all inclusive is limited”

Location Is really close to the airport- 15euro for a taxi. You can see and hear the planes that go over but that was fine for us. It was £27 euro in a taxi to go to Rhodes town and just 3euro each on the bus near the hotel - we went on the bus there and got a taxi back as it was soo hot with no … more

Location Is really close to the airport- 15euro for a taxi. You can see and hear the planes that go over but that was fine for us. It was £27 euro in a taxi to go to Rhodes town and just 3euro each on the bus near the hotel - we went on the bus there and got a taxi back as it was soo hot with no aircon on the bus. We had to stand too and it was about 45 mins. Staff The reception staff are WONDERFUL, nothing was too much trouble. They helped with beach towels - with bus timetables and taxis. The barMAN in the evening however was very rude. Christos I believe his name is. We were all inclusive (see below) and he would not serve us unless we provided an empty glass to show we were not trying to have 2 drinks instead of one. We are a family of 3. His attitude was awful. He would never smile and if we interrupted his cigarette break he was even more grumpy. He made a point of telling me to fetch my glass all the time - which we always did anyway and when I asked for a clean glass he was really rude tutting and questioning and being passive aggressive I did try to speak to a man on reception about this (I think he might have been the owner) but unfortunately I don’t think he understood what I was saying. The daytime bar staff (female) was lovely. All inclusive This includes breakfast lunch and evening meal. Plus local beer or wine from 10am - 10.30pm. And soft drinks. From 5pm you are allowed local spirits - single shots at a time only. The local alcohol was not really that nice and clearly just for the all inclusive trade which is a shame. No thought or care went into the cocktails that were on offer from 5pm-10.30pm - in a plastic cup. The snacks for daytime were only water melon slice or a small pre made sandwich which sat on the bar all afternoon. Ice cream cones were included 2-5pm only. The food however was FABULOUS. Every meal was lovely with just enough choice. (Not one upset tum for the whole holiday) The restaurant staff were wonderful too. Rooms Cleaned daily. Air con was 7 euros per night extra and very much needed. Local beach Is a 5 minute walk away but is pebbles only and very rough. However the sunset is incredible and worth a walk down there. No facilities at the beach. Pool Was lovely and seemed very clean at the beginning of the holiday however towards the end it felt a bit grubby and it did get busier. The majority of guests were French and there seemed to be a rep getting all the French guests together for activities iin the day and at night. This was fine however it may make some other guests feel a little left out - we didn’t mind at all. There is also a table tennis table, darts and a pool table to use. All in all it’s a good hotel apart from the time limits on drinks. The local wine and beer were not great and sub standard. I would say 7/10.
