Adults-Only Hotels in Rhodes

Adults-only hotels in Rhodes: Island holidays between coast, culture and cuisine

Adults-only hotels in Rhodes combine relaxing days by the Mediterranean with varied excursions. The Greek island offers long coastlines, historic sites, small coves and landscapes that change noticeably from one region to the next. For a holiday as a couple, you can choose an adults-only hotel where a child-free atmosphere shapes the pace of the day, while exploring Rhodes by hire car, bus or organised excursions.

Rhodes lies in the south-eastern Aegean and belongs to the Dodecanese island group. Popular seaside resorts, sheltered coves and beaches line the east coast. The west coast is windier and more unspoilt in many places, while the island’s interior is characterised by hills, olive groves, vineyards and rural villages. In the south, quiet stretches of coastline alternate with wide-open landscapes. This means that around your adults-only hotel, you will find both lively holiday resorts and areas suited to long walks and leisurely exploration.

Rhodes Town, Lindos and the east-coast resorts

Rhodes Town combines a harbour, a modern seafront promenade and a historic old town. Paths through the medieval streets lead to the Street of the Knights and the Palace of the Grand Master. Around the old town, you will find cafés, tavernas and shops, while the coast offers space for a stroll beside the water. If you would like to combine sightseeing with a stay by the sea, Rhodes Town offers a well-balanced mix.

Lindos lies on the east coast and is known for its white houses, the Acropolis and the bays below the hill. The town is easy to explore on foot and is ideal for a day trip with photo stops, a restaurant visit and views across the sea. Faliraki is more focused on the beach, watersports and the wide range of facilities offered by an established holiday resort. Kolymbia is also on the east coast and provides a good base for excursions to different parts of the island.

When to travel, getting there and activities

Rhodes is particularly well suited to travel in late spring, summer and early autumn. In spring, the island is green and in bloom in many places, summer brings dry, sunny days, and in autumn the sea often remains pleasantly warm for a long time. The shoulder months are generally more comfortable for hiking and sightseeing than the hottest time of year. Depending on your departure point, you can travel by plane or ferry; specific connections depend on the season and starting point.

• Beach days: You will find plenty of bays and seaside resorts along the east coast. For peaceful hours, it is worth setting off early, especially in popular coastal resorts.
• Nature: In the island’s interior, paths lead through hilly landscapes, olive groves and villages. The Valley of the Butterflies and the area around Profitis Ilias are among the best-known excursion destinations.
• History: As well as Rhodes Town, Lindos, Kamiros and smaller villages with traditional houses and tavernas are well worth visiting.
• Wellness: If you would like to take things more slowly during your holiday, you will find suitable adults-only options in the wellness and spa hotels category.

Discovering Rhodes through its cuisine

The island’s cuisine uses olive oil, vegetables, herbs, cheese, fish and meat. In tavernas, meze, grilled fish, stuffed vegetables and moussaka are among the familiar dishes of Greek cuisine. A regional speciality is pitaroudia, savoury chickpea fritters. Local honey, fresh bread and a glass of wine from the island region make a good accompaniment. Souma, a traditional spirit, is often offered as a regional digestif. If you enjoy trying local food, do not limit yourself to restaurants in the holiday resorts; also include village tavernas and markets in your plans.

Comparing Rhodes with other island regions

If you would like to consider other Greek island destinations before booking, you can compare Rhodes with the adults-only hotels in Kos or the adults-only hotels in Crete. Kos is suited to a more compact island holiday with beaches and historical traces, while Crete offers greater geographical and cultural variety within a single island. Rhodes remains a versatile choice for adults who want to combine a beach holiday, old town, cuisine and excursions in one trip.
