Hotel berhampiran The valley of the butterflies, Rhodes

We recently stayed at Electra Palace Rhodes, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The hotel is just a short 10-15 minute cab ride away, making for a smooth and quick arrival. Check-in was seamless, and we were soon off to our room, which was beautifully modern with light wood paneling that added a relaxed, upscale vibe. We also loved the Nuxe toiletries, a lovely touch of luxury! Our room overlooked the pool, and the view was just perfect. The food was outstanding, especially for an all-inclusive setup. The buffet impressed us with its variety and quality, and the Italian restaurant was a highlight—we enjoyed a delicious lunch there and returned one evening for dinner. The bar was a great spot to unwind, and we especially appreciated Daniel and Vasilis at the pool bar. They took the time to get to know us, and Daniel went above and beyond, crafting special drinks based on our preferences. It was these thoughtful touches that really made our stay memorable. The hotel’s beachfront location couldn’t be better, and the pool area was well-designed and modern. Our only small complaint was that the pool was freezing—definitely refreshing, but maybe a bit too much so! The evening entertainment was a delight as well, especially the street jazz night with dancers and a DJ spinning Afro house beats alongside live instruments. It was unique and lively—a perfect end to our days. Overall, this was a beautiful place to stay. I’d wake up each morning and feel grateful for the gorgeous environment. We’d absolutely come back in a heartbeat!

This hotel was certainly one of the best I've ever stayed in. Rooms were cleaned to a very high standard with fresh towels and bedding daily. The food was great (we were only bed & breakfast) but there was such a good choice and all the staff are so warm and friendly. Lefteri the waiter made us feel very welcome from the start and came and spoke to us every morning. He has worked at the hotel for 36 years which speaks volumes for me. During our stay it was my birthday. I opened my cards in the morning and put them on the dresser. When I returned to the room later that day there was a card and a bottle of wine left for me from the cleaners, Entelo & Bona which I thought was a lovely touch. Thank you ladies! The pool area was also immaculately clean and there was never a problem getting a sunbed. If you couldn't get one right next to the pool there were always plenty available on the grass. The sports facilities were fantastic too and kept my 13 year old son occupied. He would look forward to the water polo, darts and beach volleyball. I joined in with the aqua aerobics which was so much fun and even treated myself to a massage. Ben, head of entertainment took most of the activities and made my son's holiday. He's a great guy who absolutely loves his job and is a huge asset to the hotel. The majority of guests I would say were Dutch who were really lovely to us, spoke perfect English and would invite my son to play volley ball with them in the pool. There were also a few Germans who were fine but a bit more reserved and a few English who would always stop and chat. Not one person I spoke to had a complaint about the hotel or staff. The bar area gets quite busy at lunchtime but it didn't take long to be served and there were always tables available. The gyros was definitely a hit with my son and my husband and I had a salad every day for a healthy option. I tried every salad on the menu and they were all delicious. Andreas from the bar was so kind. A young uni student who wanted to improve his English. He served our food and always made a point of asking if we were having a nice holiday and made lovely polite conversation with us. The beach was very beautiful but a bit windy on occasions for me and the sea looked a bit rough. There were always people swimming and it was nice to watch the windsurfers. The sunbeds on the beach were 4 euros a day. You can also see Turkey from the beach which is apparently only 11 miles away. In the evenings we ate out and there are plenty of restaurants to choose from. We opted for Greek food most evenings which was amazing but noticed a few Italian restaurants and the occasional sports bar which served mainly fast food. All in all we never had a bad meal and the Greeks are so hospitable and kind and can't do enough for you. We didn't catch much of the evening entertainment apart from the Greek dancing where the guests participated. Had we known we would have returned earlier to join in. It looked like great fun. Th

This hotel is absolutely amazing...I really cannot say anything negative about it. From the staff to the facilities and the location, everything about this hotel is 5 star. Me and my partner went B and B as we like to get out and explore. The breakfast was delicious with so much choice . The staff are so accommodating and will do anything for you. We did eat once in the hotel at the Italian themed restaurant (can't remember the name) and the food was very good . Bit poncy but obviously prepared and served with class at the forefront. The room was spotless and so comfortable with an amazing view that I will always remember. The pool at night is a spectacular. Little lights that change colour and flicker all evening giving the ambience of the hotel such a classy and visually amazing touch . The beach directly opposite the hotel is rocky and pebbly but still very nice. I personally am a beach coniseur so always search for the best beaches. So I would highly recommend tskimba beach which is 10 minute bus ride away . Best beach I have been to ...golden soft sand , crystal clear water. Amazing little bar/restaurant playing chilled and relaxing music. Service to your sunbed if you want and only €20 for 2 sunbeds and a brolly. Outside of the hotel there is an abundance of little shops and restaurants with a variety of different foods . Altogether Rhodes was amazing. The Sentigo Royal Port and spa is absolutely amazing. I will definitely be returning to this place .

Cooks clubs kolymbia is a recently refurbished retreat, all rooms, public areas and pools are brand new and in perfect condition. The relaxed boho aesthetic passing through the hotel from one area to the other helps create an instant sense of calm and relaxation. Both pools are stunning featuring draw dropping views as the hotel is situated in between a rocky hill range (mountain goats included!) The Pool bar by the larger bar is flawless, a great asset to the hotel. Although we were not a fan of the Kolymbia beach resort itself due to it being very tourist heavy with large hotels and slightly tacky bars (sorry!), we found it was in the useful location of being directly in the middle of both Rhodes old town and Lindos Village, both a must visit with local buses going to both making exploring the island very easy! Tip: buses always run about 15 mins late. The staff themselves were fantastic and extremely helpful, small touches go a long way! Our overall stay was great, it’s definitely a good 4star hotel and I would definitely highly recommend. Improvements: Breakfast was slightly chaotic everyday. - Coffees taking over 20 mins to arrive daily. - Forgetting drinks orders, never bringing any milk with the breakfast tea even after requesting? - I did find it strange there was not an iron to quickly borrow from the front desk, the steaming service sounds great but not in a rush. Easy fix for breakfast is to have set staff for smaller areas of tables rather than all staff running around trying to collectively keep guests happy. To all staff at Cooks Club, Thank you for a great holiday! 8/10 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Wow wow wow! What a hotel! We visited October half term. First impressions were fantastic! The reception area is very inviting, as were the staff. So friendly and welcoming. We upgraded to a sea view room (room 419) and if you can, please do this. The views were fantastic as were the evening sunsets. The room was huge, clean and by the far the most comfiest bed and pillows we have ever had at an all inclusive. Maids cleaned everyday. Food was amazing. Plenty of choice and always somewhere to sit etc. Pools were lovely, especially the heated one. Was nice to not have the water taking your breath away. HUGE SHOUT OUT TO SAM AT THE POOL BAR! what a credit to the hotel. Fun and always smiling. We loved the rooftop bar, as the season was coming to an end, entertainment was on the quiet side but would love to come in season to see what it’s like. We did watch a male and female singer one night who were brilliant. Private beach stone throw away. My favourite thing about this hotel is that they have literally thought of everything. They have lovely little chill out pods scattered around the gardens and a lovely seating area with a fire pit which was beautiful. They have decorated it so lovely. Thanks for an amazing chill time. We will 100% be returning. Enjoy your break!
