...on bare feet. A lot of people complain about the standard of accommodation in apartments on the island, but you don’t go to Lindos to sit in your room, and you get what you pay for – there are hotels if you want more. Most rooms aren’t air conditioned, but some have wonderful huge ceiling fans which inhibit the insects as well as cooling the air, and fans can be hired quite cheaply around the town. Every room we have stayed in in Rhodes has been kept spotlessly clean for us.
We spent our second week in Rhodes a few km north of Lindos in the quieter resort of Haraki. This used to be a fishing village, and is now the site of a clean, quiet pebble beach, some friendly bars and a couple of excellent tavernas.

Advantages: Excellent value at the price. Disadvantages: Few trimmings
...Never have I had such a miserable start to a holiday.

I had to join the Emerald at Palma, Majorca, and the journey was dreadful. The charter flight to Palma had been scheduled for mid-morning, giving me time to get to Gatwick from my home in Oxfordshire, but almost at the last minute it was changed to 05.45, and I felt I could not ask...

...I arrived with my girlfriend to Rhodes on september 2006, We stayed a the lito hotel on Ixia, in rhodes.
we booked our hotel and flights from israel in a deal.

shower - not enough hot water, we asked the reception, but there was no solution.
Air condition - costs 6 euro a day - very expensive for us, "luckily" for us, we got to rhodes on an autumn-rainy-days so it wasn't so hot. july-august are very different.
mini-fridge - small but free, great for keeping a sixth of water, or beers, or both.
every room has little porch, with view to the see.
great gardening.
tv - in every room, the channels doesn't work good - has cnn and bbc, and other european and greek...
