Home description

This 1895 original old village stone house is set in a quiet, traditional corner of the village of Malona. Just 5 minutes drive from the beautiful golden beach of Agathi, and the pretty harbour of Haraki, the village of Malona has a lot to offer in both the summer and the winter. As an active traditional agricultural village, it is surrounded by orange, mandarin and olive groves which keep the villagers busy all year around. A 10 minute drive finds you in the beautiful village of Lindos or in the other direction in the heart of Rhodes 2nd town Archangelos.

Take time out in a real Greek village and live among the locals in a traditional village dwelling. The pace of life is on GMT (Greek Maybe Time) and the neighbours will welcome you like long lost relatives. The house is perfect for couples to use as a romantic retreat with a roaring fire for the evening’s n the low season or a private roof terrace to watch the velvet night sky.

The Aegean Islands region

Rhodes is the largest island in the group known as the Dodecanese. It is the 3rd largest island in Greece and is positioned south east of the mainland close to the coastline of Turkey. Its positioning makes it popular with sun worshipers as the island is said to enjoy more days of sunshine than any in the med. A testament to the sun god, Helios, who claimed the island for himself, Rhodes rose out of the sea more than 2000 years ago. With that life span you can only begin to imagine the history of this mountainous isle. One thing is for sure, if you love the sun and you love Greece, Rhodes will not disappoint.


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 butcher. 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!

The house is a 61 square meter semi detached house, consisting of one large traditional 'Camara' (Archway) room and a bathroom. A perfect retreat from the world, the house will offer all the elements of traditional Greek living, but with all modern requirements catered for.

There are sleeping facilities for up to 5 people within the one room, with 2 double beds set up on traditional 'Pangas', a bathroom below one and a large walk in wardrobe/storage area under the other. The fabulous fireplace in one corner of the house is really the heart of these old houses where the families sat down to relax on large floor cushions, enjoying the drama of the 'Camara' as their view. The house is half plastered and whitewashed, and half natural stone.

Further details outdoors:
Outside in traditional village style there are flowers pots to enjoy the company of the neighbours, with a BBQ area in the building at the front of the house. There is also an outside storage area.
