Overview
Offering a stunning sea view and less than 3km from the popular Tsambika Beach, Villa Mikis enjoys an enviable location on Rhodes’ eastern coast. With an eye-catching pool and terrace right outside the door, up to thirteen guests can make the most of the sun at this exquisite island holiday home.
In addition to the large, private pool, measuring 90 sq m, the villa also features a wellness area with a hot tub and sauna, plus numerous sun loungers and seating areas on the terrace. A spacious covered area has a dining table and chairs, just a few steps away from a grand barbecue, perfect for entertaining any visitors. The views out to the ocean and surrounding hills are sure to add to the occasion. There is a small chapel in the grounds, which gives the property a true Greek feel.
Villa Mikis has a large living area inside with a tiled floor, fireplace, flatscreen TV and lots of seating. This area flows through to the kitchen where attractive wooden units, a large fridge freezer, oven and dishwasher can be found. There is also an informal dining area here, ideal for a quick coffee or breakfast, and another more formal one, seating six guests, in the adjacent space. In the main villa are the first two bedrooms, a double with en-suite shower room and a twin. The remaining four bedrooms are split between two guest houses, two more doubles and two twins. There’s room for a thirteenth guest on the sofa-bed in the sitting area of the first annexe. The four bathrooms are all well-appointed, with large walk-in showers.
Kolympia enjoys one of the finest locations on the coast, not just for its beauty, but its proximity to many of the island’s highlights. Roughly halfway between Rhodes town and Lindos, famed for its magnificent Acropolis, it’s even closer to Afandou, where you will find a great golf course, and Faliraki’s stunning Anthony Quinn Bay.
Don’t miss venturing inland either – you don’t have to travel too far from the coast to encounter the natural wonders of Vouno Kalathos, and Epta Piges, or ‘Seven Springs’, while the Valley of the Butterflies is sure to delight visitors of all ages.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa MikisThe local beaches are Tsambika and Kolimpia. Local places to visit include the Tsambika Monestry, the Folklore Museum & Museum of Ceramic Art. Rhodes is an island with more than its fair share of natural beauty and landmark sights. With Rhodes Town only about 30 minutes’ drive from the Villa Mikis, it would be a shame to miss out on discovering its charms for yourself.
The town of Rhodes is as good a place to start as any, and lies on the northern tip of the island. A walk along the medieval walls of the Old Town will offer you some beautiful views, accessible from the must-see Palace of the Grand Masters. Part of a World Heritage Site, this is also the location of a fine museum which offers the chance to familiarise yourself with Rhodian history, extending as far back as the 3rd century BC.
Another museum worth checking out is the Museum of Modern Greek Art, with an eclectic collection only rivalled by Athens. The New Town area is visually appealing itself, with an Art Deco influence present in much of its architecture. Mandráki harbour is the home of Evangelismós Cathedral, where you can find some impressive frescoes.
Along the coast Lindos Acropolis is as spectacular as the coastal views it enjoys, and definitely worth seeing. Down the coast, you also have resorts such as Ammoudes, Kolympia and, perhaps best-known, Faliraki. While its reputation may precede it, this is not the hedonism capital it once was. A children’s water-park and the beautiful Anthony Quinn Bay may tempt you there during the day, and an aquarium and scuba-diving school also embrace the aquatic theme.
At the very southern tip of the island, Prasonisi’s location – dividing the Aegean and the Mediterranean – is considered prime wind-surfing territory. But if that sounds a little too exhilarating, Rhodes’ more sedate attractions like the Valley of the Butterflies, numerous wineries and the seven springs of the wonderfully scenic Epta Piges nature reserve, will provide just as pleasant a day out.

The Island/Getting There
Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese Islands of Greece. It’s got a lot of history as it’s been invaded a lot by the Persians, Carians, Ottomans, Italians, and Germans.
Average temperatures go from 20’c in April up to 30’c in July/ August and down to 20’c in November. With an average of 85 rainy days a year they get sunshine for around 280 days.
The island is 90km long with Rhodes town at the northern tip. The airport (Rhodes International Airport "Diagoras") is also in the North (15km from Rhodes Town). Charter flights and Easyjet operate direct from the UK all season and out of season (Nov-March) you’d need to fly via Athens.
The Acropolis – The Acropolis that sits high above the town of Lindos is absolutely amazing and is a must see if you’re looking for some of the best views in all of Rhodes. One thing I should mention is that the climb up to the acropolis requires you to be somewhat active and able to climb stairs, lots of them. The trail begins through town and slowly but surely starts to get steeper as you climb the hill towards the acropolis. Once there, you’re rewarded with historical buildings dating back to 300 BC. Our Villa Corteau sit just underneath the ruins.
Rhodes has over 40 beaches, here are a few:
- Anthony Quinn’s Bay – Anthony Quinn’s bay is one of the most beautiful bays. The bay is located 17km (10 mi) south of Old Town Rhodes and offers some incredible photo opportunities to say the least.
- The beach at Anthony Quinn’s bay is one of the best beaches in Rhodes. Get there early if you want to snag a sunbed and umbrella and enjoy wading around the bright blue and green water. Amazing!
- For the best views of Anthony Quinn’s Bay from above, head on up to the windy road that leads up the hill just north of the bay and you’ll find a spot where you can sit and enjoy the virtually 180 degree views of Rhodes and its coastline.
- Tsambika Beach (or Tsampika) – Tsampika beach is located 30km (18 mi) south of Old Town Rhodes and is a great place to spend the day in the sun. Note: Beware there is a small section where nudists congregate on Tsampika beach
- Lakido Beach – Just opposite Anthony Quinn’s Bay is Lakido beach. It’s literally 3 minutes walking distance from Anthony Quinn’s bay so visiting both beaches in a day is totally doable. As a matter of fact, I would highly recommend visiting both if you get the chance
- Faliraki Beach – One of the most popular tourist spots on the island of Rhodes. It was known for 18-30’s holiday in the 90-2000’s but I don’t think there is that market so much now. It is quite commercialised now there are water sports and a few diving schools.
How to reach Rhodes island
There are two ways to reach Rhodes Island: either by flight or by ferry.
By plane: If you don’t want to lose time you can fly to Rhodes (RHO) from Athens. The flight lasts 1 hour. Many direct flights also operate from many European countries, so it will not be difficult to arrive there.
By ferry: If you choose to travel from Piraeus to Rhodes with a ferry, it will surely take you much longer but travelling with a ferry in the summer nights can be pretty enticing! The port of Rhodes is located in the southern part of the island and offers bus services to the town centre. You can easily book your ferry tickets using the link below or the booking engine.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThis gorgeous villa is going to be a hit with all the family. After all, who could resist spending their days in that incredible pool, taking a nap in the sun on a parasol-covered lounger, or feasting on a plate of freshly barbecued goodness? There’s a large TV and free Wi-Fi too, and with some stunning beaches just a short drive away, even the most screen-hungry kids will rediscover a love of the great outdoors.

Excellent Place to stay
We made a last-minute reservation to this property and were apprehensive as we wanted a property on the beach. However, we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the Villa to find it a very charming and attractive property. It was very well located for the best beaches in Rhodes including Tampika beach and Anthony Quinn Bay. The place was modern, spacious and well looked after. The best part was that the owner/manager Mannus & his lovely wife were always extremely helpful and treated us like family. We were two families with five teenagers who enjoyed this accommodation throughly for a week. If we visit the island again I have no hesitation in renting this accommodation again.Points to note - You will require a car to adequately utilise this place. The main building has got two large bedrooms with ensuite. A third bedroom/maisonette with toilet is like an annexe adjacent to the main building and is ideal for a family with grown-up children. The outdoors are immaculately maintained by Mannus and the icing on the cake is the pool which comes with beautiful views of the mountains and the sea with outdoor facilities of shower, toilet and barbecue.

Fantastic
When we arrived at the villa it out did our expectations; the villa is spacious and so quiet with your own personal pool, bbq area and even a guest house. The owners were available for anything we needed, Manosh and his wife were more than helpful also Katarina was available for any queries we had and she did a fantastic job of keeping us informed about our holiday.
I would recommend this villa to any family that want to visit the island, fantastic experience. -
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!
This house has everything you want. Clean, comfortable, privacy, space, views, internet available in and around the house; you name it, it was there. Hosting and service were friendly and helpful. Distance to the airport, Rhodos city and Lindos about 20 min drive. Excellent restaurants in every location. We'd certainly come back.
