Four x 2 Bedroom Villas

|
Halfway between the old village of Lindos with its narrow streets and ancient acropolis, and the newer resort of Pefkos, with it’s long sandy beach, these 4 villas have one of the best locations on the island. This coast offers many lovely sandy beaches, the nearest one down in the bay, less than 10 minutes walk away. St Paul's Bay, just along the coast, is a popular venue for weddings, and The Beachcombers offer ideal accommodation for Honeymooners and Guests. They offer traditional country style with tiled roofs and pine ceilings, combined with luxury furnishings and well equipped kitchens. The view is something extra special, with the dramatic cliffs to the right, and the sea spread like turquoise satin in front. If you adore the scent and colour of a well kept garden...if you like cooking with fresh herbs...if you can see yourself relaxing in the jacuzzi as the sun climbs across a clear blue sky...this is for you.

Changeover day
We try to be flexible about changeover day. We ask departing guests to vacate by 12 noon. Arriving guests will be able to move in after 3 pm. Please let us know if your flight times are unusually early/late, and we will do our best to accommodate you.
Notes on accommodation
Each villa is equipped with remote controlled air conditioning, plus an energy saving solar panel which will provide up to 200 litres of hot water per hour. The Lindos area is normally one of the hottest on the island in summer, with temperatures often in the high 30s. The air conditioning units also have a heating function, should you require it. Guests will always be comfortable indoors, whatever the weather outside.
Accessibility
We regret that the villas are not suitable for wheelchair users. There are a few steps inside the properties, and several steps down to the pools and gardens. Those with limited mobility should be able to move around indoors comfortably, providing they can manage a couple of steps.
Outside
The villas stand on a generous private plot, fenced and accessed via an electric remote controlled gate for vehicles and a lockable pedestrian gate, offering an extra degree of security. There is hard standing inside the gate for 4 vehicles, and a paved driveway behind each house providing ample parking space. Each villa has a large garden which provides plenty of grassed space for children to play. The extra large grounds of Sandpiper are particulary spacious. The pools are 1.40 metres deep at their deepest point. They are in a figure 8 shape, 10 metres long, 6 metres wide (not including spa). The Spas are big enough for 6 to sit comfortably. There is an outdoor shower close to each pool. All pools benefit from modern filtration/chlorination sytems to ensure high standards of hygiene. The gardens, pools and spas are illuminated to make an enchanting picture after dark. Besides exotic palms and flowers, chefs and cooks will find edible herbs to give their food authentic Greek flavour.
Coast/Beach
The nearest beach is down in Navarone Bay, less than 10 minutes walk. It is a very pretty sandy beach, not overcrowded. Lindos, about 2 minutes away by car, has 3 sandy beaches, including the very beautiful St Paul's Bay. Pefkos, 2 minutes drive to the south, has several small beaches and one very long one. It is a very popular family resort. Watersports are available at Pefkos and Lindos. There are many lovely beaches to be found along this coast - we hope you will enjoy discovering them!

There are plenty of taxis at the airport, in Lindos and in Rhodes town. The nearest local bus stop is 5 minutes walk from the properties.

There is a large Water Park near Faliraki, also a small fairground for children. Pefkos has Mini Golf and Go-Karting. Those who enjoy walking will find delightful walks in the mountains, and some stunning views. Those interested in history will find a wealth of ancient architectural sites around the island.

It has a specially romantic atmosphere after dark, when you can sit in lovely courtyard restaurants and enjoy local dishes. The area where The Beachcombers are located was itself designated an area of outstanding natural beauty by UNESCO in the 1990s. The villas are owned by a local man from an old Lindian family, and his English wife.
