Sun & Sea Apartments

The hotel had no wifi, and using the air conditioner cost an extra 9€ per day. That felt like a trap, since the balcony door had no swatter, leaving us to choose between the heat or flies and mosquitoes if we didn’t pay. The manager or owner was mostly sulky and gave us very little information. He didn’t even say hi or good morning when he saw us :D On our first day the toilet was a bit dirty, and he yelled at the employee to clean it. You’ll need a rental car if you want to explore other parts of this huge island.

A good, inexpensive place to stay, with friendly owners and beds that were okay. The pool stays uncrowded, and the bar right beside it serves à la carte food as well as continental breakfast. Airco costs €6 a day, and using the safe is €10. The kitchen has an electric one-pitter and a water cooker. They collect the garbage from the room daily, though the cups, plates and pans could have been washed better.

There’s a nudist beach near the hotel, which is in Faliraki. Rhodes center is a long way off, so you’ll need a rental car or the bus, and the buses are often not on time. There was no wifi or air conditioner included. The owner asked us for 9euros per night for the air conditioner, which is crazy.

It’s cheap and simple, and the beds are good. The airco was clean too. The beach is a 7 min. walk, supermarkets take 5 minutes to reach, and the center is about a 15 min walk. Breakfast and diner were poor, but lunch was oke. Staff were friendly from time to time. If you’re on a budget and don’t expect too much from a hotel, it’s a decent place near the beaches.
