Detached Mountainside Villa with Panoramic Sea Views in Beautiful Vlicha Bay

Villa Hemera is nestled into the hillside of the peaceful, beautiful and prestigious Vlicha bay, just minutes from the historical town of Lindos. The villa has breathtaking panoramic views of the crystal blue waters of the Aegean sea (the best in the bay due to the villa location). Take a two minute stroll down to the beach where you will find tavernas (who will serve you drinks on the beach) and a mini-market for all your necessities (a supermarket is also available at the entrance to the bay for 'the big shop' if needed)

Vlycha Vacation

We loved the villa! It was clean, spacious, and well equipped. The outdoor area was outstanding. The pool was very clean. The bed was comfortable. We loved the beach. We were there in June and it was not crowded at all.

Amazing stay in Vlicha Bay

Our second visit to this lovely villa, it felt like coming home! Everything we needed, with two 79 year olds we definitely need a car. Supermarket just over a mile away, pool area beautiful, lovely beach down the hill and fantastic views. Teri is very helpful and just a call away if you need anything. We have already booked for our third visit, 3 weeks next year!

Fantastic place

Had an amazing time at this villa, a little out of the way but worth it, you do need a car to get about. We had 2 weeks here and will definitely be booking again. The villa has everything you need and the welcome pack is great when you arrive, nice touch. The view is amazing, we had lots of fun in the pool, it was so hot most nights so we would be in the pool at 11.30pm, just chilling out. Over all this has to be one if the nicest Villas I have ever stayed at.

Beautiful views of Vlicha Bay

Really great villa with fantastic views across the bay. The Villa was clean and spacious with excellent outside space for eating and relaxing outside and a beautiful pool area with a bbq. We hired a car which was really useful for going to other beaches, restaurants and the supermarket. It is possible to walk into Lindos but not a night as the road has no pavements, in August it is also extremely hot, even at night. The villa had good air conditioning which certainly needed and the bathrooms and kitchen are basic but clean and functional. The beach in Vlicha Bay is stoney but is well served by Lindian Jewel for drinks and food. Lindian Jewel is good for evening drinks and food but travelling into Lindos and Lardos to eat gives much more choice. St Paul’s Bay is a lovely cove the far side of Lindos which has gorgeous sea and beachside restaurants and the town of Lindos is very beautiful. An excellent villa, a way away from Lindos and up a very steep hill but we would certainly return to this villa.

Wir (2 Erwachsene und 3 Kinder 13, 7 u.6J.) genossen einen traumhaften Aufenthalt in einer nicht mehr ganz "brandneuen 5* Villa". Die Villa ist schön und gross, die Einrichtung ist jedoch in die Jahre gekommen. Was etwas nervig war, die Fensterläden in den oberen Schlafzimmern waren kaputt und liessen sich nur mit einem "Draht" schliessen. War etwas gefährlich wenn die Kinder daran hantierten. Wir mussten am zweiten Tag den Hauswart kommen lassen, da einiges zu machen war: Klimaanlage im Wohnzimmer funktionierte nicht, Klobrille war gebrochen und musste ausgewechselt werden und die Ablagefläche im unteren Bad war ebenfalls defekt. Ausserdem mussten einige leere Flaschen vom Vorgänger entsorgt werden. Es sind Kleinigkeiten und doch machen genau diese Kleinigkeiten aus, ob es sich um ein 5* Haus handelt oder eben nicht. Was uns ebenfalls etwas enttäuscht hatte war, dass es gar nichts an Pflegeprodukten wie Shampoo oder Duschgel hatte, bis jetzt hatten wir das in jedem 5* Haus! Die Betten waren sehr bequem und gross genug. Der Aussenbereich mit Pool und Lounge war grandios und die Aussicht schlicht überwältigend. Hervorheben möchte ich die Kommunikation mit dem Housekeeping, es war perfekt, sie waren sehr hilfsbereit und sofort zur Stelle wenn man sie brauchte, DANKE!Wie gesagt, der Aufenthalt war sehr schön und wir freuen uns schon auf den nächsten Griechenlandurlaub!

Excellent villa, lovely pool and close to bars

The villa was as described and worked perfectly for our family of 5, plenty of room and everything we needed.It was a really nice touch when we turned up, the fridge had been stocked with some basics like milk, butter, bread, fruit and a few beers, plus a nice bottle of red on the table, great way to start the holiday.The pool and putside area were excellent too.The villa is up a steep hill but its not too bad for a few minutes. There are a few bars and restaurants within walking distance and then Lindos is about 10 mins in a car. We were able to get taxis from Lindian Jewel hotel at the bottom of the hill.Communication with Shane was easy and always responded quickly to any questions.Overall, highly recommended

Stunning. We actually changed our plans from a Rhodes visit of touring the island to one of relaxing at the villa based on the astounding beauty and comfort of this place. Shane was fantastic to work with, was a clear communicator, and his hospitality was over the top. I'd highly recommend this villa to anyone and my family hopes to use it again for a futrue visit to Rhodes!

A Perfect Family Getaway with Stunning Views

We’ve stayed in several holiday homes before, but this one is truly exceptional. It offers all the comforts of home. The rooms are spacious, and there’s plenty of storage space, a washing machine, dishwasher, coffee machine, TV with DVD player, air conditioning, and more. There are enough plates, glasses, cutlery, pots, and pans for a whole family.The outdoor area is fantastic. There’s a comfortable lounge area and a large dining space under a covered patio, as well as a BBQ. The pool, although not heated, is clean and big enough to enjoy. The new, stylish wooden sun loungers are very comfortable and give you a real luxury hotel feeling.The house has a stunning view over the bay. We loved enjoying breakfast, a cup of coffee, or an aperitif while taking in that beautiful scenery.It’s located in a very peaceful area, yet not isolated. You can walk to the beach, and there’s a supermarket just 1 km away and a great bakery 1.5 km from the house.Within a 10-minute drive, you’ll find the lively villages of Pefkos and Lardos, and the beautiful town of Lindos is even closer.Whenever we had a question, we could always count on Terry, the local property manager. He was very helpful and friendly.We had an absolutely wonderful family holiday in this home on Rhodes.

Lovely Property / Beautiful Location

Lovely villa in a lovely location. The villa was exactly as advertised, and even came with a well stocked fringe (wine, cheese, ham, juice, fruit, water etc). Host (Shane) always responded quickly to any questions. Terry the maintenance guy was awesome. We called him out once as we had a question, and he was here super quickly (awesome service). We went out to Lindian Jewell a couple of times (2 minute walk down a steep hill), and it was lovely. We also had food and drink at The Banana Bar on the beach which was lovely and fully shaded). The Ktima restaurant is lovely but overpriced (had better meals at the Lindian Jewell and in Lindos. The Dionysos Resturant was recommended by Shane. This was also a lovely restaurant with a lovely rooftop view. Definitely recommend this villa for anyone looking for a villa in Rhodes. Only thing to be mindful of is the extremely steep ‘road / path’ leading to the villa. But don’t let this put you off. You get used to driving up it, and it’s only about 100metres. Thankyou Shane and Terry!!!! Awesome Hosts!!!

Once in a lifetime vacation

Our stay at Shane's villa was amazing. We brought our family of 6 from the USA to stay here and had an amazing time. This villa was spacious inside and out. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook in , including a BBQ grill outside. The pool and patio space had incredible views that we soaked in morning and night. We made sure to get good use out of the pool daily, whether it be morning before our beach trips or afternoon before cocktails! Everything was well maintained and updated. Family movie nights were a plus with the extensive selection they had. The villa is located minutes (walking) to a beautiful beach and great restaurants. We used the mini market several times for basic things but did big food shopping at the local supermarket five minutes with a car. We did rent a car for the week which gave us great options for dining, beaches and ability to take a day trip to another island from a boat in Rhodes .The parking space by the villa was great since the house is located on a very steep incline. Terry the house manager/pool maintenance man was fantastic and quick to respond with any questions we had. He loves his job and it shows . He went out of his way to find us some charcoal that we could not to make our family dinner a success!! I would definitely stay here again if we ever make it back to Rhodes! Thank you Shane for making our family vacation one to remember.

October break

We had a fantastic holiday at the Villa Herrera. There were 6 adults and we had plenty of room, thanks to the great weather & outside area. The 3 bedrooms were a good size & with 2 bathrooms, we had no space issues. The kitchen area was well equipped & the host, Shane was extremely generous with a very well stocked fridge on arrival. The pool and outside area were just lovely! Sunbeds for 6, a cozy sofa area & stunning views across the bay. We spent most of our time here. Terry the pool & general maintenance man was really friendly & helpful but managed to not be intrusive either. Whenever we needed any help, he was there in a very short time & sorted any minor issues straight away. Shane, the host, was great. He was always quick to respond to our messages, generous with equipment & food - he thoroughly deserves his premier host status. We felt Shane & Terry were a good team & felt in very safe hands. We would come back without hesitation.

Greek villa with stunning views

This villa was perfect for our stay, spotlessly clean and spacious with large outside area which had two seating areas both in the shade, as well as plenty of sunbeds round the pool. The views both from the pool area and both balconies are stunning. The kitchen has everything you need, we barbecued a few times. Shane was a fabulous host, answering any queries very quickly during the booking process, and Tery, the local pool cleaner and maintenance man was brilliant, giving us his number and answering straightaway when we had a problem (goats pulled the bougainvillea off the wall and blocked the road - Tery came right away to clear it), and let us know he was available 24/7. It was also the first villa we have ever had which has had a towel and bedding change halfway through our stay, and the best welcome package ever, with a fridge stocked with fruit, wine, juice, milk, cheese, ham and bread. The road up to the villa is steep, but manageable for most people - maybe the elderly would struggle. I would recommend a car - there is a supermarket less than 5 minutes drive away. All in all, a fabulous holiday and we look forward to coming back!

Fabulous Villa in an amazing location

Fabulous Villa, with a wonderful location. Everything about this place is fantastic from the view from the villa, balconies and terrace, to the outside space with outstanding areas to relax, plenty of shade for those who like to get out of the sun but yet stay close to others and the interior is just as stunning, with some of the comfiest beds we've had abroad. This place is a jewel in the Aegean, so relaxing and comes with a resident wildlife show of birds in the afternoon, and the local goats climbing the hillside behind, close enough to Lindos town with it's wonderful meandering little streets, great restaurants and wonderful bays and to quieter Lardos. The decking mentioned in previous reviews looks brand new and appears to have been replaced, the welcome pack provided included much appreciated drinks, fruit, and essentials and a surprise bottle of vino too. Thank you Shane for sharing your home, this villa is just fabulous and we hope to return in the future.

Great location and views

This was our second stay at this property which in our opinion is in the best location in Vlicha Bay being in a quiet location with fantastic views across the bay. There is a very short walk downhill to the beach, small supermarket and small selection of tavernas. The pool and terrace area has a variety of plants that set this relaxing area off, I have to agree with the previous review that the decking is a bit tired but not an major issue and I am sure this will be addressed by the owner. The villa has everything you need and a good welcome pack with your basics on arrival. I am sure we will return again soon.
