Mythica Tower Mill - Windmill Beach House

Anna gave us a warm Greek welcome, greeted us with gifts and was charming and extremely helpful throughout. She lives on the property. I highly recommend this rental to anyone after a memorable, authentic Greek experience. This is a 300-year-old classic Greek windmill right on the water, with its own beach. It’s an unusual place to stay and very much an experience in itself. The layout is quirky, as you’d expect from a structure like this, but it has all the essentials. There are 3-4 bedrooms in the main building and another one-bedroom suite with a separate entrance in the basement. The top-floor bedroom is lovely, though getting up the stairs is challenging. This isn’t a house for people with mobility limitations. It’s about a 15-minute taxi ride from Rhodes Old Town.

A cozy, beautiful windmill with lots of character, from the stone walls to the wooden details. The sea is just steps away, and you can hear the waves in the background. It has a peaceful, timeless feel, a lovely place to relax and feel far away from everything.

The owners were wonderfully hospitable, and it was clear how well this amazing property is maintained. As a professional in the same industry, I can only say bravo, and thank you for giving us such an unforgettable experience. A few friends from abroad and I spent seven days in Rhodes. The property is a real windmill built “on the sand,” turned into a fantastic villa with an artistic feel. It was very comfortable and right on the beach, with private sunbeds. Our friends summed it up simply: “Mythical!”

Anna has such a helpful heart. She was always there, sorting out anything we needed, from booking taxis and recommending beaches to sharing some salt. I’d come back any time for a few days to recharge. We stayed for two weeks in August '21. If you’re after five-star all-inclusive luxury, keep looking. This place is for an experience, not just a bed for the night. The 500-year-old mill still has its old charm, alongside modern facilities. The village is far enough from the busy town to be peaceful, but close enough for an evening taxi ride. There are also plenty of tavernas and shops nearby. The mill is literally on a stony beach, and it’s not very windy. Everything is around it: a good restaurant to the left, a great bar to the right, supermarkets behind, and plenty of parking. Sunbeds and umbrellas are reserved, there are two terraces to relax on, and there’s lots of room inside. The round living area has spectacular views, though it gets really warm during the day because the air conditioners barely bring in cool air. The kitchen has everything you need. The upstairs bathroom is unusual, with large windows covered fully in greenery, though some cats might sneak in and watch you. The guest room is cool but doesn’t get much daylight, and it’s really just for sleeping. I was concerned about noise from the planes landing, which you can see and hear, but it wasn’t disturbing.
