Picolo recommends · Hotel in Kallithea, Rhodes, Greece
Elysium Resort & Spa
Terraced rooms stepping down to a private beach on the calm east coast of Rhodes, with Kallithea Springs just along the shore.
From the terraces, the rooms look straight out over the Aegean, and below them the hotel runs down to its own stretch of beach. The east coast is the sheltered side of Rhodes, so the water is usually calm enough for small swimmers.
Kallithea Springs, an old spa complex with a rocky swimming cove, is close by, and Rhodes Town is a short ride away. Several pools and a spa mean you rarely need to leave if you do not want to.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Elysium Resort & Spa
We picked it for travellers who want everything in one place: beach, pools, spa and decent standards, without being far from the town. It works for both couples and families.
It is a big resort, and the buildings show it. The gardens soften the scale, but if you want a small hotel with character, look at the Old Town or Lindos instead.
