Villa Gr5084

Surrounded by lovely gardens, and next to the golf course in Afandou. It is strategically located for excursions to explore the best parts of the island of Rhodes because it is equidistant from the mediaeval old town of Rhodes and the cobblestone streets of Lindos.

The ideal entrance to the outdoor lifestyle is provided by a terrace with an eating area, a pavilion with a BBQ, and lots of sun loungers and umbrellas. Along the shore, there are several beautiful beaches with clear waters and isolated locations ideal for sunbathing. Tsampika, which is close by and has soft, golden sands, is regarded as one of the nicest beaches on the island. Afandou's own beach has cafés and restaurants where you can relax with a cold drink in the sun or savour some delectable Rhodian seafood.

The residence itself has a fitness centre with a sauna and a hot tub, and the roomy private pool is perfect for a morning swim. It's nearly impossible not to feel comfortable in this bathroom because it has a bath with hydro-massage capabilities. Four spacious bedrooms with balconies and two stories of the property offer magnificent views. There are two more shower rooms with lavish walk-in showers in addition to the main bathroom. With a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a dining area inside, and a kitchen with an oven, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, and other amenities, the living quarters are spacious and well-appointed.

From the natural splendour of the Epta Piges to the nightlife of Faliraki, there is much within a short drive to suit all tastes. The former is definitely worth visiting; it's a nature reserve with a lot of lush, forested regions and seven springs that created a beautiful lake with the island's sole freshwater swimming area. With its enormous slides and waves, the thrilling water park at Faliraki will be a hit with kids, and Rhodes' historic monuments are close by as well. Don't miss a trip to Rhodes' historic Old Town or even just its own sandy beach while staying at the property, which is only 25 minutes' drive from the island's capital.

The pebbled beach of Afandou beach has crystal blue waters and just a shack or two selling drinks and snacks.
It's a short drive to the town of Rhodes which is as good a place to visit and lies on the northern tip of the island. A walk along the medieval walls of the Old Town & castle will offer you some beautiful views. Part of a World Heritage Site, this is also the location of a fine museum which offers the chance to familiarise yourself with Rhodian history, extending as far back as the 3rd century BC.

Another museum worth checking out is the Museum of Modern Greek Art, with an eclectic collection only rivalled by Athens. The New Town area is visually appealing itself, with an Art Deco influence present in much of its architecture. Mandráki harbour is the home of Evangelismós Cathedral, where you can find some impressive frescoes.

Along the coast, you also have resorts such as Ammoudes, Kolympia and, perhaps best-known, Faliraki. While its reputation may precede it, this is not the hedonism capital it once was. A children’s water-park and the beautiful Anthony Quinn Bay may tempt you there during the day, and an aquarium and scuba-diving school also embrace the aquatic theme.

Rhodes is an island with more than its fair share of natural beauty and landmark sights. To the south Lindos is a UNESCO site, with donkeys for transport and and cobble streets below the ancient acropolis.

At the very southern tip of the island, Prasonisi’s location – dividing the Aegean and the Mediterranean – is considered prime wind-surfing territory. But if that sounds a little too exhilarating, Rhodes’ more sedate attractions like the Valley of the Butterflies, numerous wineries and the seven springs of the wonderfully scenic Epta Piges nature reserve, will provide just as pleasant a day out.
