Rhodes is the largest of the Greek Dodecanese Islands, and lies between the Greek island of Crete and Turkey in the Aegean Sea. Named the Island of Light as there are hardly any days when the sun doesn't shine. Rhodes is one of the most popular islands in Greece - even Greeks themselves come to Rhodes for a holiday.

Villa Petalutha is situated on an east coast hilltop, enjoying panoramic views of the Sea and Countryside. Located between the popular beach resort of Kolymbia, and Afandou a traditional and warm Greek town.

If you only stray from your sun worshiping twice, we highly recommend visiting Rhodes Old Town and Lindos, of which the Villa is located midway between. Rhodes Old Town is a 14th Century Medieval Town and is proud to be a recognised World Heritage Site. Lindos is one of the most popular destinations for visitors with its charming white washed townlet under the steep cliff of the ancient acropolis.

Absolute relaxation, stunning villa, great views!

Review Submitted: November 1, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
My partner and I stayed here from 14th October for a week and absolutely loved it. The villa, as previous guests have commented, is stunning. There are 3 lovely bedrooms each with their own balcony and are all decorated in a beautiful modern contemporary style. In fact this is true of the villa throughout. The lounge area has all the mod cons (ipod dock, DVD, Flat screen TV, even a Playstation 2 for the kids) and a kitchen that we'd want to have ourselves at home! There are 3 bathrooms all with very good showers etc unlike some places when you go abroad. Credit to the owners here as a lot of thought has clearly gone into providing visitors with everything they might need for an enjoyable and hassle free stay, including a good dvd collection, books, even a pre-pay mobile phone should you need it. They've even included some local take away menus etc should you wish to fully relax and not leave the villa all day, which we gratefully took advantage of on particularly lazy days!

Outside the villa is a lovely pool and beautiful seating area, nicely shaded from the hot Greek sun. We felt the thought that has clearly been put into this property inside continues outside as well with a lovely circular lawn surrounded by a beautiful array of plants and shrubs. The views from the garden are fantastic and we loved the feeling of being up on the hilltop with our own privacy and the peace and quiet but still only a short distance from the local towns with their many bars and restaurants.

We would absolutely recommend this villa and Rhodes itself. The villa is very well positioned so you're only a short drive to Rhodes Town, Lindos and the airport and there are a couple of lovely towns very nearby too serving great cuisine. The owners were very friendly to deal with and we can't wait to go back next year!

A truly memorable holiday

Review Submitted: January 14, 2012 Date of Stay: July 2011
This was our first time self catering and we had a truly fantastic experience! The photos of the villa perfectly reflect each room and the outside areas including the pool but there was still a WOW factor upon arrival! The villa was very light and airy and the welcome pack was perfect as we did end up arriving after midnight. There was ample room for all of us (family of 5) and the kids loved the pool including the inflatables which were thoughtfully provided. We ate lunch and dinner outside every night under the pergola and enjoyed being able to use the BBQ.

In reference to a couple of previous comments, there are lots of beautiful flowers softening the garden although you need shoes on the grass as it is quite sharp but beautifully green! The dog next door is still there but he does not bark very much at all and the owners were lovely. They waved to us each day and provided us with wonderful vegetables from their garden and even cooked an authentic Greek pie on day!

The villa is excellently maintained and the efficient communications from M&K made it very easy to book and answer any questions. There is also lots of information in folders to read should you need restaurant recommendations, etc.

The villa is well positioned to explore the island but you must get a car to get around for shopping (note most of the large supermarkets on the main road close on a Sunday!)

The only thing we would say to improve the villa from 5* to 5*+ would be to improve
the basic shower in the master bathroom and replace the mattress as it was incredibly hard. I know everyone is different but it was difficult to sleep on!

Thank you for a lovely holiday, one we will never forget!

From The Robinson family
Owner's Response: Thank you very much for your lovely words. It's always good to recieve reviews and feedback to confirm what we are doing right and more importantly what we can do to improve.
We are delighted that you had a wonderful time and hope we get the opportunity to welcoming you back again in the future.

"We recommend this Villa to everyone"

Review Submitted: August 10, 2011 Date of Stay: April 2011
We stayed one week in Villa Petalutha in April this year to enjoy our holiday. The first time in Greece and we had a lovely time! The house was comfortable, the swimming pool is pleasant and the neighborhood felt friendly and not touristic. Sitting at the terrace is having a wide view over the sea. We stayed with children and the house was perfect for them to play outside and chill inside. The information getting by mail before we arrived and in the house is complete and helpful. We recommend this Villa to everyone who will have a nice place to stay in Rhodos!

Thank you

Review Submitted: January 6, 2011 Date of Stay: April 2010
We’ve just got back a few hours ago (last night) & I wanted to take the chance to thank you for the wonderful time we had.

Your Villa is truly lovely, comfortable, well located and well equipped. The view is simply breath-taking. We really enjoyed our stay.

I’m glad we had the opportunity to talk – as all your recommendations were valuable: we ate good, rested well, enjoyed the wonderful sandy beaches – couldn’t ask for more.

Our second visit

Review Submitted: November 1, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We were a party of 6 and stayed 26/9 - 14/10.This was our second visit to Villa Petalutha and again we enjoyed a wonderful holiday in Rhodes. We were up early each day to watch the sunrise and ended each evening with a wonderful dinner on the terrace. The villa is superbly equipped for cooking and entertaining. We enjoyed listening to music and catching up on old films. There is a good selection of books, films and music already there but each of us brought our own favourites to share. Whilst the nearest beach / town of Kolympia is disappointing it is more than made up for by the nearby beautiful beaches of Tsampika and Vliha (excellent taverna). You do need a car and it is well worth exploring the rest of the coast and the interior. We certainly appreciated the welcome pack and,on our second arrival, were thrilled to see how the planting had matured and that there was attractive and effective sun cover on the terrace. The pool is a joy! We are hoping to arrange a similiar holiday with our friends in 2010.

Owner's Response: It was a great pleasure to welcome you back to Villa Petalutha a second time, and that you enjoyed your stay even more. We are delighted to hear that you are considering returning one again.
