My partner and I are planning a trip to Rhodes, Greece, and I'm looking for some advice on the best romantic spots to visit. We want to make this trip extra special and memorable, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

To give you an idea, we're interested in places that offer stunning views, intimate dining experiences, and any hidden gems that locals or frequent visitors might know about. Whether it's a secluded beach, a charming restaurant, or a picturesque sunset spot, we'd love to hear all your recommendations.
 
Rhodes is a fantastic choice for a romantic getaway! For stunning views, visit the medieval Old Town and walk along the ancient city walls for breathtaking panoramas. Don’t miss the beautiful sunset at Monolithos Castle, where you can enjoy a quiet, romantic moment together.

For intimate dining, try Melenos Lindos, which offers a charming atmosphere and delicious cuisine with a view of the Acropolis of Lindos. Another great spot is Marco Polo Café in the Old Town, known for its cozy ambiance and delightful dishes.

For secluded beaches, head to Saint Paul's Bay in Lindos. It's a hidden gem with crystal-clear waters and a serene atmosphere. Lastly, explore the Valley of the Butterflies for a unique, tranquil experience.
 
Saint Paul 's Bay , a hidden gem .
No most certainly not .Its crowded with people on tightly packed sunbeds & tourists from the cruise ships go there .
Valley of the butterflies does not have butterflies , just rather dull tiger moths .It does have a lot of mosquitoes .
 

Hidden Gems in Lindos?

I’m planning a trip to Rhodes and will be spending a few days in Lindos. I’ve already got the main attractions on my list, like the Acropolis and the beautiful St. Paul’s Bay, but I’d love to discover some hidden gems that might not be on the typical tourist radar.

Are there any lesser-known spots or unique experiences in Lindos that you’d recommend? I’m particularly interested in charming local cafes, quiet beaches, secret viewpoints, or any special places where I can soak up the authentic atmosphere of the village. I’d also love tips on any hidden alleyways with beautiful architecture or local shops that sell unique souvenirs.

Additionally, if there are any specific local dishes or lesser-known tavernas that serve amazing food, I’m all ears! I’m excited to explore and appreciate any advice to make my Lindos visit extra special.

Advice for hiking in Rhodes

I'm planning a trip to Rhodes and am really excited about exploring the island on foot. I’m looking for advice on the best hiking trails.

Can anyone recommend must-see routes that showcase the island's natural beauty and historical sites? I'm particularly interested in trails with stunning views, as well as any that might lead to hidden gems or lesser-known spots. Also, are there any safety tips or specific gear I should bring along? Lastly, I'd love to hear about any guided hiking tours that are worth joining.

Any personal experiences or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

moving to rhodes & problems

I was asked today by a british couple about moving post brexit. It is extremely difficult.first you have the 90 day rule meaning you have to leave after 3 months.So In that time , you have to either find a landlord willing to give a contract or purchase a property.To do the latter you must employ a greek lawyer & a greek accountant.then you can apply for a biometric residents card ( mine took 2 months & many visits to the greek police.you need the card to apply for a greek driving licence. ( you cannot drive long term on a UK licence ) . Once yoy reach 76 you cannot rent a car . Also need the card to apply for IKA book.that entitles you to health care.proof of address is required to get a phone line & broadband.you also need a contract or property deeds to get water & electric supply.a landlord may already have those & you will get the bills from them .
I am so gratefull I moved before Brexit.
