Ellia Hotel

We stayed for 11 nights in mid June. The hotel is excellent, well maintained and very close to shops, and restaurants. There is a bus stop right outside of the entrance which we used to go to Lindos and Pefkos, both trips were 2 euros each, each way. The is a bus timetable at reception. Meals were really good, with a good variety each day. We're not fussy eaters so had nothing at all to whinge about. 10 min walk to the pebble beach.

All the staff were fantastic, very helpful and always had a smile. Special mention to Urim and Olsi who were the dream team for the bar service. Also the lady greeting us at mealtimes, sorry we didn't get her name but she's a credit to the hotel with a fantastic memory for room numbers!

We had room 211 which is a swim up room. Made the world of difference having your own pool right outside on the terrace with a big comfy double lounger. Room was cleaned daily to a good standard.

Evening entertainment was mostly good and plenty of variety. Not something we usually go for but what we did watch was very good.

We would definitely return, as this was one of the most relaxing holidays we've had.

We had such a lovely stay at Aiora Aqua Resort and would happily come back if we visit Rhodes again!

We travelled with our one-year-old son, and one of the biggest highlights of our holiday was how incredibly kind everyone was to him. This is a truly child-friendly hotel, and every member of staff made us feel welcome.

A very special thank you to Athina, who is an amazing animator. She has such a warm personality and is fantastic with children. Our son absolutely loved her! The other girls from the animation team were also wonderful and always made us smile.

We would also like to thank the lovely receptionist with the beautiful curly hair, who always took the time to play with our son Teo and made him laugh whenever we passed by. Those little moments meant a lot to us.

The pool bar ladies, the lifeguard, the restaurant team, the evening bar staff and all the waiters were simply amazing. They all work incredibly hard, yet they are always smiling, friendly and helpful. You can really feel that the staff care about the guests.

A huge thank you to the chefs as well. The food was delicious every day, with plenty of choice and excellent quality. And the pizza deserves a special mention—the pizza chef is outstanding! It honestly tasted like pizza from a really good Italian restaurant.

We especially enjoyed the gin & tonic, that was always a great choice.

The hotel is clean, well maintained and has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The location is very convenient, with a bus stop nearby, Lindos just a short drive away and shops within walking distance. The rooms are comfortable for the family, baby crib and baby chairs available :)

A small tip for future guests: bring some mosquito repellent! The mosquitoes on Rhodes can be quite active, but that’s definitely not the hotel’s fault.

Thank you to the entire Aiora Aqua Resort team for making our family holiday so special. We created wonderful memories here, and if we return to Rhodes one day, this hotel will definitely be our first choice. Highly recommended!
