Avra Beach

What a fantastic stay at this fabulous resort. We cannot fault this place. The food in the Greek restaurant is so good. Staff are all amazing. Highly recommend

My husband and I had such a good holiday , it was the last week of the hotel being open and it was lovely and quiet Our room had the pool view and side sea view with terrace , it was an upgrade family room , a lovely surprise organised by our travel advisor. The food was varied and fantastic array of salads and I’ve never eaten kiwi fruit like it. A special mention to Rena in the restaurant who was amazing , but all were so friendly and helpful and not intrusive , but cleared away so quickly. Beautiful poached eggs every day ! The family feel of the hotel is outstanding and our room and hotel was spotless , even the pool area We hired a car for three days , and travelled around the island , found some beautiful places and beaches We booked a trip to Lindos and Symi through the company in the hotel foyer , also used his bus to go into Rhodes old town during the day but drove in ourselves in the evening . Car hire was £110 euros for three non consecutive days , would have been less if consecutive but that didn’t fit with the limited days of trips we wanted to experience. We loved the hotel and it’s no frills approach , it just cares and feels like they have cultured a sense of belonging rather than just filling the hotel and grounds with “ stuff to entertain “ Our first trip to Rhodes / Greece and we loved it , we would recommend the hotel if you are looking for a hotel that is smaller and compact but friendly , we used the Greek/ Italian snack bar and the filled rolls at the snack bar. Kalithea beach resort for a few hours was worth 3 euros each and Anthony Quinn bay was stunning Only disappointment was the Jet 2 rep who just wasn’t interested as it was the last week of the season , but I don’t blame her she must have been exhausted and we had no trouble doing our own thing

We arrived very late and there is a small fridge in reception where you can get a cup of water and a sandwich or a piece of cake. They could do with bring labelled meat or veggie . We appreciated having something small as we had a long day. The location is very good , we used the local buses outside to go to Rhodes Town several times. We visited in 11th -18 th Oct. We stayed in the newer part of the hotel overlooking the pool, it had sea views. The room was one of the newer ones. The rooms are very compact. There wasn’t a lot of space between the fridge and the bed so opening the door was tight. The beds was 2 singles put together , we spoke to them then put a sheet over it, not a mattress which still meant there was a gap in the middle. Agree with all the other comments the rooms are ok but need more hanging space for clothes and hooks to hang things up in general. It was modern but wasn’t a fan of the frosted toilet door and the shower with door closed the floor always ended up wet. That said the cleaners came in every day and always were friendly and changed the towels and cleaned the rooms. They could do with leaving a bottle of water in the fridge which you could refill. The food was good, a lot of choice and my partner is veggie and he managed to get something to eat every mealtime. We liked other 2 day time food options of the Greek gyros and the pizzas were always fresh with lots of choice. We both found most of the drinks quite sweet and sugary but they had a large cocktail / mocktail menu. We would particularly like to mention Young George, Nikos, Anastasia , and the chap who made the fresh gyros. The reception staff were friendly. The animation team were good. A few of the acts for the evening were very good , a band one night and two ladies who sang and played electric violin was good. We didn’t get a Sun bed round room the pool for the whole week . We did get one on the beach ( they get taken very quickly) . The beach is has lots of stones so sea shoes are a must . We used the local buses outside and went to Rhodes Town and did a trip to Lindos and Turkey for the day. . The pool was freezing the sea was warmer.

Amazing hotel, friendly helpful staff, amazing food catering for all, gluten free, vegan and meat eaters, clean and brilliant entertainment would definitely go back

My husband and I spent 2 weeks at this hotel with our daughter/her husband/grandsons joining us midway through. Everyone enjoyed the food, drink, friendly staff etc. The pool was freezing cold though, the sea was much warmer. We booked a superior room with sea view and had a room overlooking the pool with a side sea view. When we arrived, very late after a flight delay of 2 and a half hours, we simply wanted to get straight to bed so didn't unpack until next morning. The room had a modern feel with a small hanging rail and 2 large drawers underneath and a bedside unit with two drawers. There was a toilet, shower cubicle washbasin with a mirror above. But there was absolutely nowhere to hang wet towels, no full length mirror , though there was plenty of empty wall space available, and not even a balcony rail to hang washing. I don't think the designers thought it through properly. I have never stayed in a holiday hotel abroad that didn't have outside hanging rails. My daughter found it very difficult, with 2 young children finding space for wet clothing. The only mirror was the one above the washbasin, which caused some problems if I wanted to dry my hair at the same time my husband was wanting to have a shave or one of us needed to look in a mirror. These "minor" issues made it very awkward and, to be honest, made me not to want to book this hotel again. The people who designed these rooms have not thought about the people who are going to stay in them. It's not rocket science!!
