just back from a one night stay .because its winter the bar and restaurants were closed.In the room no facilities to make tea or coffee.The bathroom had a spa bath that did not work . The bed had no electric blanket so it was cold .All and all not a good experience
 
I stayed there recently and it ticked a lot of boxes for an easy family trip. The location made it simple to nip between the beach and shops, and the kids burned tons of energy at the pool and sports court. If you're still weighing options, the surfers paradise accommodation I booked had roomy spaces and some handy meal deals that saved us a bit.
 
recently!!! the pool is closed & the beach would be cold & no sun loungers on the beach. no meals at the hotel at this time of year.even the coffee shop is closed
 
I had a relaxing stay at Tabacon in La Fortuna. Their warm river and spa facilities were fantastic for unwinding. Maybe consider it for your next trip if you're seeking a place with consistent amenities year-round.

Tips for Exploring the Ancient City of Kamiros

I might go to Rhodes and would really like to visit the Ancient City of Kamiros while I’m there. I love exploring archaeological sites, and from the photos and information I’ve seen, Kamiros looks fascinating. I’m especially interested in seeing the layout of the ancient city and learning more about what daily life would have been like there.

For those who have visited, do you have any tips for making the most of the experience? How much time would you recommend allowing to explore the site without feeling rushed? Is there enough information posted around the ruins, or would it be helpful to read about the history beforehand or bring a guidebook?

I’d also love to know about practical details, such as the best time of day to visit, how much walking is involved, and whether there are any other nearby places worth combining with Kamiros on the same day.

Is October a Good Time to Visit Rhodes?

I’m considering a trip to Rhodes this October because I found a really good deal on flights, and now I’m trying to decide if I should go for it!

I’ve been looking into the weather, but I’d love to hear from people who have actually visited Rhodes in October. Is it still warm enough to spend time at the beach and swim, or does the weather start becoming unpredictable by then? I don’t necessarily need extremely hot weather, but I would like some sunshine and nice days for exploring.

I’m also wondering what Rhodes is like that time of year in terms of restaurants, shops, attractions, and crowds. Are most things still open, especially in Rhodes Town and Lindos?

Would you recommend visiting Rhodes in October, or is it better to save the trip for earlier in the season?
