Stayed
at Castle Apartments
Very Clean, complete with shower curtain which I'm told is a luxury in
Greece! Sheets were changed twice a week when cleaned.
Travelogue
Rhodes is a great place with great
people. The weather was good and nothing was to much trouble when it came
to service. It didn't take us long to get into the Greek pace of life.
Must
See Attractions 1) Old Rhodes
Town. Take a walk around the moat and walls. Inside the walls you'll find
narrow interesting alleys with shops, cafes and bars. We found a few places
where we could enjoy a reasonably priced drink together. The history of
Rhodes town is well documented in the guide books and you can enjoy guided
walks starting at the courtyard of the Palace of the grand Masters. Within
the 15th century knight's hospital is the archaelogocal museum and farther
north is the Museum of the Decorative Arts. 2) Cape Prasonisi is the place
where the two oceans meet at the southern tip of Rhodes. It was once joined
to Rhodes and is a popular spot for windsurfing. 3) Petaloudes or The
Valley of the Butterflies. The so called butterflies are actually strikingly
coloured moths lured to this gorge of footbriges, pools and streams by
the scent of the resin from the styrax trees.Eating
Out
1) Manilos and Dinas on the road that is in and out of Haraki.
2)
Zarcaoffs just a couple of doors away.
Fab
Tips 1)Change your money over
there, you get a better rate. Aristos has an office in the village and
charges a 2% commision. 2) Local car hire is better and cheaper than prebooking
in England.
