Sunshine in Rhodes
Beautifully spacious room right near the pool we couldn’t have wish for more. Very clean with extras provided although were not needed ie extra blankets, pillows. All the staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble.

Excellent resort
Beautiful set up with the other 2 hotels in the same group nearby. Loads of pools and bars within resort and 5 mins walk to Pefkos main strip with loads of bars and restaurants. Gardens really well maintained. Plenty of sunbeds.

This was a great hotel! The staff are very polite and helpful. The resort is so incredibly clean and well maintained. It’s part of three hotels to make a resort which means you have access to four pools and an on-site shop. The main town strip is a short walk away where you can also get transport to other parts of the island.
The room itself was massive, aircon included, large balcony, fridge with water, small kitchen and extra blankets and pillows. Slept incredibly well with how quiet it was.
The safe in our room wasn’t working but we didn’t need it as we spent most of the time on the resort. Breakfast was included and had a diverse range of food to choose from. And each pool has a bar with kitchen if you need anything else during the day.
Overall, an incredibly good place to stay. Can’t recommend enough!

This was our 3rd visit to the Hotel Island Blue, the last visit being June 2018, so we were really excited to return, and hoping not much had changed.
As previously, the accommodation was fantastic and we were not disappointed.
The cleaners do a brilliant job every day in the rooms and around the property, working really hard in the heat.
Some sunbeds were being reserved before 8am. Not necessary when we went, and we were always able to get 2 together at any time of the day, and did mean that the cleaners, who hose the sunbeds down, were unable to clean those sunbeds in the morning.
Food at the pool bar was excellent. We often ate there during the day and had a couple of takeaways to eat in our room. Prices are comparable to everywhere in Pefkos.
Really pleased to say that this hotel continues to be a little gem. We will return.
Rooms were of high quality, beds fairly comfortable.
AC could have worked better, but did the trick.
Great shower pressure. Only a shampoo/body wash combined mix so make sure to bring any lotion, conditioner, etc.
Staff were friendly and always said hi. Particularly Nicky at the check in desk :)
Easy to walk to other shops and restaurants (10 min max). Felt safe walking around alone at night.
No beach towels provided, or even a collateral system in place. So if you only have carry on luggage, saving room for a towel is just not worth it.
Breakfast was fine, catered very much to the English palate. Wish there was more authentic Greek food and even some nice coffee would be welcomed.
A bus every hour or so to Lindos so easy to get there for the day or an evening meal. Bus is 1.80€ each way.
Can also take the bus to Rhodes Town, as I did, and then onto the airport. Takes a while but a nice coach (often 15 min late). In total it was just over an hour and a half to Rhodes Town and another 30-40 to the airport. There is no direct bus to the airport from Pefkos so you have to change at the central bus station in Rhodes town.
Nice to have access to 4 separate pools and a fitness centre (although Expedia does not state there is a gym on site). Gym is nice. Will include photos. New equipment and decent selection for such a small room.
There is direct access to a Sandy beach. The water is stunning. There is some room to put a towel down or 15€ for chair.
Ideal family apartments with separate bedroom and separate bathroom gives much needed space and privacy.
Lovely big comfortable queen size bed in the main room.
Air con was very efficient also.
My only negative comment would be the main bathroom was beginning to look and feel a bit tired.
Overall another lovely stay beautiful hotel very clean disappointed that you can’t stay on in your room anymore and have to book a slot for the shower room which is organised chaos!! Rude reception staff ! I was 3 minutes early for my slot so she was rude to me!!
Absolutely amazing place!
Positives: All the staff were so friendly, from reception to cleaners. Rooms were very clean and beds were comfortable. The view from the room was overlooking the pool and gorgeous. Greek night and Abba tribute night was fantastic.
Negative: sunbeds are rubbish and need replacing.
Water shortage, not the hotel's fault as it effected the whole of Pefkos. The hotel supplied water in bottles.
I would definitely recommend and want to return.

Super Frühstück, Triple Room angenehm groß, tägliche Zimmerreinigung, Freundlichkeit, Publikum. Zu 90% von Briten besucht, sehr kinderfreundlich. Look, Service und Feel eher 4 Sterne durch Zusammenschluss mit Pefki Island Resort und Lindia Thalassa. Ideal, um Mitte und Süden von Rhodos mit dem Mietwagen zu erkunden.
Bra hotell med flera pooler. Hotellområdet, som delas med ett par andra hotell, går ända fram till trappan ner mot stranden. Det var en fin, men smal sandstrand. Vi hade en fin utsikt över en pool, havet och en liten kyrka från vår balkong på våning 3. Bra frukost med mycket att välja på. En kort promenad på 5-10 minuter från hotellet låg flera bra restauranger, barer och affärer.
Schöne, recht große Hotelanlage mit kleineren Mängeln, der Parkplatz ist eine Zumutung. Sehr freundliches Personal, das auch am Ende der Saison noch auf Zack ist. Große Zimmer mit guten, aber sehr harten Betten. Die Duschen sind sehr gut, auch wenn das Wasser nicht vernünftig abläuft, hat halt ein wenig Schwimmbad-Charakter. Das Frühstück war gut, aber nicht so überragend, wie ich es vorher gelesen hatte. Der nahegelegene Strand war klein, daher auch sehr gemütlich. Liegen und Schirme für 3 Personen lagen bei 21 Euro am Tag. Das geht in Ordnung...
Locatie en faciliteiten zijn uitmuntend, de staf zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk. Het buffet is echter matig van kwaliteit, het eten naar Nederlandse begrippen erg zout en voornamelijk gericht op Britse gasten.
Tolle Hotelanlage mit herausragenden Mitarbeitern.
Mein Mann und ich haben eine Woche im Island Blue Hotel verbracht. Wir hatten Übernachtung mit Frühstück gebucht. Nach Belieben kann man tageweise Halbpension hinzubuchen. Das war aber nicht nötig, weil rings um das Hotel in 5-10 min Laufnähe sehr gute Restaurants zu finden sind. Besonders die Taverna Nikolas und das Restaurant Dapapa waren sensationell. Die Zimmer im Hotel sind groß und geräumig. Die Poolanlage ist schön angelegt. Hier standen auch immer genügend freie Liegen zur Auswahl. Die Barkeeper dort sind spitze, mixen gute Cocktails und sind wirklich auf Zack. Das Frühstück ist reichhaltig und wechselt von Tag zu Tag leicht. Der kleine Sandstrand ist ebenfalls sehr schön. Leider muss man hier für die Liegen extra zahlen.
Wir hatten einen sehr günstigen Mietwagen, mit dem wir den Süden der Insel, Lindos (10 min) sowie Rhodos Stadt (60 min) erkundet haben. Somit kann man sich den teuren Transfer zum Hotel auch sparen.
