The Aegean Islands region

Rhodes (Rodos in Greek), lies between Crete and Turkey in the Aegean Sea, a branch of the Mediterranean Sea. Rhodes is the biggest of the Dodecanese islands. Named the sun island or island of light there are hardly any days when the sun doesn't shine. It is one of the most popular holiday islands in Greece - even Greeks themselves come to Rhodes for a holiday from the mainland.

There are many reasons why Rhodes is one of the most popular resorts in the Mediterranean: the natural surroundings, crystal clear seas, stunning beaches, many parks and recreational facilities, the bright sun and the warm hospitality of the islanders themselves. Rhodes also has an excellent tourist infrastructure and offers a wide variety of entertainment (night-life, sports, cultural events, and day boat trips to wonderful Lindos and the neighbouring islands like Kos, Symi (neo classical houses), Patmos, Karpathos, Kalymnos and Leros) but also mainland Turkey.

Rhodes / Kolymbia area

Rhodes offers the visitor a multitude of all year round leisure alternatives, covering all types of tourist activities. The natural beauty of the island, the monuments from her long and often turbulent history, a cosmopolitan character, as well as the warm hospitality generously offered by the people of Rhodes, and an excellent tourist infrastructure all captivate its visitors.

Rhodes is renowned for far more than its cloudless skies; clear blue seas, soft sand bays and olive/orange grove hillsides, excellent shopping, romantic temple ruins and a fabulous Medieval 14/15th Century Old Rhodes Town (world heritage site) – quaint, quirky and bursting with atmosphere. There's a feast of bars, restaurants and tavernas for everything from your favourite fast food to true Greek tradition, fish restaurants and fine specialty cuisines. And there are clubs, disco's and a luxurious casino for those who come alive at night, not to forget golf, walks and water sports for dawn to dusk activity.

The villa is a short journey from the airport to this Central Location, with a choice of beautiful Beaches (within 800m) Kolymbia/Afandou, a wide range of Shops, Restaurants and Bars in Kolymbia/Afandou, medieval Rhodes Old Town, an 18 hole (72 par, 6210 meter length) golf course very close by (2km/1.3 mile), picturesque Lindos Town, and much more. You will find Afandou Hills to be the perfect family or group holiday location!
