Kalavárda Vacations from $699

We wanted an all inclusive hotel for our holiday as we had younger children and wanted them to be able to try a variety of different foods. Staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The water park is small but doesn’t open until 10, so there’s no issue around sunbed hogging. The hotel has two pools. A large rectangular one at the front, with around ten beds, and another at the back with an island and snack bar. This one is where all the daytime entertainment is. Consequently, this area is loud and hectic throughout the day. So we spent our time between the water park and the quiet pool at the front. Much more peaceful, but no nearby access to snacks/drinks, so you do have to go back to the noisier pool for this. Food was good and varied each day, although it could be very busy at times. However, we had a wonderful time here. My only real criticism is the checking out procedure. You have to check out at 11 and at this point they cut off your wristbands and tell you that access to the all inclusive food/drink is off. I have not come across this before and feel it was very mean-spirited, given that nobody really gets a full 1st day anyway, and it would only be until we were collected to go to the airport, and that everyone there has paid a not-insignificant amount of money to be there in the first place. Other than that, it is a lovely little hotel in a lovely part of the world.

The hotel was great from start to finish, the staff are really friendly, especially the staff who manage the restaurant. They couldn’t do enough for us and were so excellent with our toddler. The rooms were lovely and clean, good air con and cleaned daily with new towels. There is also the option to rent pool towels for a cost of €10 pp which was very useful as meant we didn’t need to bring any from home. The food was excellent, so much choice and all of it was fresh & hot. The buffet changed every day and it was all delicious. So much choice & something for everyone. We were a party of 5 and all enjoyed every meal. The only thing we weren’t too keen on was the snack bar food around the pool but that didn’t matter as there was plenty of choice for breakfast, lunch & dinner. Very close to the town, many super markets and some gorgeous beaches 15 minute walk away. The hotel also booked us taxis which were very quick and reasonably priced for trips into Lindos and Lardos. Overall we had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend! Thank you White Olive

Loved it everything you need in one place two pools, restaurant's, beach and Sun. Shop on site and across the road. Very relaxing. Bus to Rhodes old town 30-60 depending on the time. Trips across the road to lindos and other places or hire a car. Lovely beach I've stayed locally 4 times. Family friendly. Lovely helpful staff. Good food and drinks something for everyone. Room and bathroom spacious. The hotel is catered for German speaking people although we didn't have any problems staff all speak English too. Nice little park for small children. Right on the beach so can go to and from there and they pool. Wish I had stayed more than a week.

WoW simply WoW! We have just returned home from staying at the Kresten Royal Euphoria Resort. We’ve had an absolutely wonderful time. The whole experience of staying here at Kresten Royal in Rhodes was just so perfect. From start to finish the staff couldn’t do more for us. The hotel was amazing, it has everything you could ever ask for. Beautiful spotlessly clean illuminated pools. Bars with a fantastic drinks selection, restaurants serving outstanding delicious food. The breakfast is absolutely outstanding for service and selection of food, from fresh fruit, eggs however you like them, meats, salmon, fresh pastries and bread, fresh pancakes cooked right before you eyes, cheeses galore etc etc. An amazing amphitheatre for entertainment virtually every night. A private beach with sun loungers to access a small enclosed cove to swim and snorkel and venture out into the crystal clear sea, or to just dip your feet into to cool down. We were lucky enough to book a Junior Suit with our very own private Pool that was out of this world to jump into whenever we fancied cooling off, great for a midnight dip after visiting the Beautiful Old Town of Rhodes which is only a 10 minute taxi ride to some delicious restaurants. I’d highly recommend Romeo’s for a complete Greek atmosphere including smashing your very own plates Greek style. Or if you fancy a fine dinning experience I’d highly recommend Marco Polos Mansion, a simply delicious experience. I’ll be back soon. Johnny

We have just returned home after spending 10 wonderful days at the Melenos Art Boutique hotel. Firstly, the location. This was our second stay in Lindos and after our first visit, we wanted to be only a short walk from the beach and the village - the location was absolutely perfect. It was in a peaceful area with everything we wanted was only a short walk away - perfect for the beach, village, local restaurants and acropolis. The hotel is beautiful, our room was wonderfully situated with its own patio overlooking the bay and had an individual authentic feel. We have never before enjoyed breakfast in such a beautiful setting with views of the sea and acropolis from the courtyard - breathtaking. Breakfast was incredible and always cooked and presented with such care. Finally but by no means least - the staff, all of whom made us feel warmly welcomed during our stay. Everyone was wonderful but we have to say a special “thank you” to Christina and we hope to see her, Georgia, Mary and the rest of the team again when we return. Everything was absolutely perfect - thank you for making our holiday so special x
