Little Lindos Sea View Studios — Hotel in Municipality of Rhodes

The apartment we stayed in (3) has a ground floor with a fridge, an electric job, toaster and kettle. A sofa, little coffee table and tv. There is also a wet room. Upstairs on a mezzanine level is a bed, with wardrobe, one side table and a little dressing table ( a shelf) with a stool for hair etc. There are two hand towels, two bath towels and hand wash etc. It is basic but still great value for money. ||Some pointers: ||1. Most importantly no Icecube trays so if you want a G and T, I suggest you pack either the disposable ones or reusable ones. And you will want a G and T on the terrace in the evening, the view is incredible. ||2. The shower room is a wet room. Very common in Greece. It will not flood the lounge area however, just make sure the door is shut! There is a sealed ledge to stop water flooding out. The water pressure is impressive but the rate of flow versus rate that it drains away is not quite equal! I suggest popping your bath mat outside the door to dry off ( if you are with friends you might want them to go upstairs while you do this!) When you use the loo you have to put the waste paper in the bin ( standard for Greece) so we took babies nappy sacks to use to put the waste in. ( sorry bit gross if you are from the UK but it’s a fact of life out here. Their drainage is not able to cope with all the waste paper and it blocks the system). ||3. The rooms are cleaned every three days. And cleaned incredibly well. 5* for this from us. We weren’t expecting anyone to come in SC. ||4. The beds are hard and you only get one pillow. If you are a bad sleeper then that might be an issue. I just take it as it is and then look forward to a night in my own bed when I get home! You only get one sheet so leave the aircon all night and you might freeze! ||5. Aircon worked really well... too well if we left it on all night! It’s above the bed so having it on quiet is a must. ||The location. ||The views are fabulous and it’s in a very quiet part of town. There is, as everyone has said, a hell of a climb from the town. Try different routes but we found the best one is down the steps and turn left. It’s a gentler climb, especially if you have had a few beers! Walk into to town is 5 minutes ( downhill) back is about 10-15 depending on your level of fitness!||Both beaches are stunning. St Paul’s Bay can get busy ( we are here during Covid and it still filled up). Lindos beach is perfect for a lazy stroll through the sea and was by far my favourite ( all personal choice). Again prepare the climb to either. It’s about a 10 min walk to either from the apartment. ||Beers are around €3-4.5, same for a glass of house wine. After that, cocktails, spirits with mixers etc start around €7.5 upwards. Hence the G and T on the terrace! Gyros is around €4.5 and by far the cheapest lunch around. Salads start around €7. Bottles of coke in the shop are €1.1 if you are out it’s more €2.5. ||We found Lindos Supermarket to be our go to. Very friendly and plenty of choice. ||Had lovely meals at the Gatto Bianco and Symposio. At Symposio have the mixed platter to share. You won’t need a starter or a dessert! ||If you decide to walk up to the Acropolis, and do it’s beautiful ( if not for the architecture then at least go for the views) Go for about 8:30. Once the tours start it can get busy and it’s quite a narrow path up. You can of course use the donkeys if you wish. ||We recommend the studios and the resort to anyone. A lot of reviews on here have been rather harsh in my opinion and seem to omit that they have purchased great value accommodation in Lindos, which is a UNESCO protected site. It’s a 3*studio and I would say that’s about right to be honest. If you are expecting less basic then you will have to pay...

Stayed in these studios early May. We were surprised how big they were inside with the bed upstairs. There is a basic hob for cooking and a good size fridge. There is a wash room downstairs with toilet and a sink. The shower was really powerful and nice and warm. It is a wash room so dont worry about the floor getting wet as it soons drains away. The view is absolutly incredible with clear views of the acropolis. There are 6 studios that all have a table and 2 chairs to sit outside and a few sunbeds. The location is about 10 minutes from the centre and to be honest you need to be fairly fit and mobile as there are quite a few steps and uneven roads to walk on. As it was May the temperature was fine but could be an issue in the heat of July and August. We were put in touch with Arthur who runs Xenones if we had any issues. He was a really friendly and helpful guy and he let us put our luggage in his studios on the last day as we were not picked up till after 18.00.|As long as your fairly mobile and not looking for a hotel experience we would definately reccomend these studios and we would use again when we...

Excellent value for money.|Everything you need for a peaceful sleep after the experience of walking around Lindos, visiting either of the nearest beaches or the Acropolis. The room is very soundproof which is just as well as the cicadas are noisy day and night but you do get used to them. The bed was solid and the mattress hard but good for your back after all that walking. The shower/wet room was perfect and with A/C and Wi-Fi included what more could you want? The views of the Acropolis and sea were out of this world from this property, especially at dawn.|The bedding and towells were changed and room cleaned much more than I would have expected for this priced accomadation and help was readily available if needed.|We are both in our 60's and had to rest a few times when walking too far, but anyone that has been here before will know this...
