Best Luxury Hotels in Rhodes
Located near the Turkish coast, the remote island of Rhodes is much quieter than many of the other Greek Islands. Not only does the island feature picturesque coastal villages, resorts and golden beaches, but it also features a rich history which is worth spending some of your holiday time delving into. Despite the island’s rich historical offerings, most visitors come here for the beaches and visitors to Rhodes will not be disappointed with the beautiful coastline on offer here. The busiest resort is Faliraki Beach, while those who are after a more relaxed break will find the east side of the island more suitable, with some idyllic spots to be found between Gennadi and Plimmyri. The island’s leading hotels provide guests with plenty of luxury while they soak up the sun.
