Rhodes Town

Wander around a honeycomb of cobbled streets hugged by a protective medieval wall in Rhodes Old Town. Journey through centuries of history as you take in its buildings, bastions and mosques. Visit the museum of the Old Town’s crowning glory – the Palace of the Grand Master. Then stop for meze at a traditional taverna. Admire the Venetian and Neo-Gothic architecture while strolling around the New Town, where shops and restaurants abound. A visit to historic Mandraki harbour is a must.

Kallithea

Soak up the laidback ambience of charming Kallithea. Unwind on the sands of a secluded bay, or go snorkelling in an underwater cave. In the evening, enjoy a quiet meal at a friendly local taverna. Not to be missed is a visit to the historical spring water spa, with its beautifully restored mosaics. See the brightly painted doors that adorn the white-washed houses of nearby Koskinou. Or immerse yourself in the bustle of vibrant Faliraki.

Faliraki

Faliraki is perfect for fun family days or lively nights out. Bask in the Mediterranean sun on miles of soft golden sands. Then cool off in crystal clear waters. If action is on your agenda, choose from a plentiful array of water sports. After building up an appetite for lunch, feast on meze at a beachside taverna. By night, order a fishbowl-sized cocktail at a buzzing bar or head to one of the throbbing clubs that line Faliraki’s famous strip.

Ixia

Easy-going but with a distinct pulse, Ixia is ideal for Rhodes family holidays. Wrapped around its long pebble beach are abundant hotels, shops and eateries. Cool off on scorching summer days with a dip in Ixia’s crystalline waters. Or take advantage of this area’s gusty climate and try wind or kite surfing.
