Home description
A beautiful stone house full of Greek charm and character. Thick stone walls, high ceilings and slate floors keep the house cool, whilst tall windows allow golden sunlight to filter through soft curtains. The unique Greek features include a large archway dividing the main living area of the house, effectively creating a second space for sleeping on a traditional, raised platform. The houses beautifully mediterranean style courtyard offers plenty of seating for sunbathing, dining or socialising. A wooden pergola with vines and fragrant jasmine complete a perfect setting. Greatly suited to families or couples. Extra equipment for children can be provided on request. We would request that guests refrain from smoking inside the house, they are welcome to do so in the courtyard.

The Aegean Islands region
Rhodes has more days of sunshine than any other island in the Aegean. It is a cosmopolitan island where you will find every thing from amazing beaches to medievil castles, throbbing nightlife to deserted beaches and sleepy villages. You can enjoy horse riding, golf, scuba diving and of course relaxing!
Rhodes / Malona area
Malona is situated on the east coast of Rhodes where many beautiful sandy beaches can be found. The nearest is the glorious beach of Agathi, a sheltered beach with gently shelving water great for children, however the aqua blue waters won't disappoint anyone. Agathi is approx. 10 km from Malona, about 5 mins by car or moped. There is an 18 hole golf course at Afandou approximately 15 minute drive from Malona. There are eateries to be found in Malona and the neighbouring village of Masari. Close by is popular resort of Haraki with cafeterias, bars and tavernas. The village of Malona itself has several small minimarkets, a chemist and a butchers. The local post office runs from one of the cafes in the square and fresh fruit and fish are sold from vans visiting daily. Horse riding also available nearby. Visit the miniature horse sanctuary of Archangelos, a native breed to Rhodes. Visit the historic old town of Rhodes, picturesque Lindos, sample wines in Embona or take one of the many boats to neighbouring islands. Turkey is just a 1 hour boat ride away too!
Malona is an excellent choice for couples or families.

Climate and Weather The temperature soars in July and August and is often hovering around 40 degrees. April and May are months of few tourists and great for nature lovers as the island is a carpet of wild flowers. Winter rain fall produces an emerald isle of spring greenery and lush vegetation. June sees that island starting to get busy with visitors from every corner of Europe. Luckily mile upon mile of sandy beaches mean that even in August you will still find a spot on the beach to soak up some sun and sea. The winter climate is very clement which makes Rhodes an ideal spot for some winter sun. However be prepapred to the island as it is with no tourist trappings.
