Hillside Studios and Apartments, Faliraki Rhodes
★ ★
No weather data found for [, ”Rhodes”, ”Rhodes”, horizontal]
In an isolated position and a fair hike to the resort, especially coming back from Faliraki as much of the journey is uphill, hence the name of the property! However, taxis are readily available at a reasonable cost.
Despite its peaceful location, this property is almost exclusively geared to the young and lively market. A family owned property, the friendly couple that run the accommodation and live on site love this age group, who all call her Mama, she welcomes the party atmosphere by encouraging singsongs along with the resident dog Pepis!
The size of the pool area is disappointing especially as the beach is so far away, therefore many guests will choose to stay at the property to sunbathe in what could become congested surroundings.
Exterior
3 basic concrete accommodation blocks painted in yellow and blue, 3-storeys high. All apartments and studios have compact balconies with white plastic garden furniture. Reception, the main bar and small mini market is located in a separate block in the car park.
Property type: Apartments
Balcony/Terrace: All
Storeys: 3
Exterior: Blocks
Interior
The main bar, which is normally open from 6pm until 6am, is located in a separate building in the car park along with the reception. Although modern it is compact in size for the amount of guests the property holds, it hosts a pool table and air hockey table and is decorated with photographs of previous guests in party mode – most of whom probably don’t remember the occasion !
Rooms: 85
Grounds
Grounds appear deceptively spacious due to the property’s rural location but on closer inspection, much of the area is restricted due to metal fencing. There are some flowerbeds, mature trees, and a small lawn surrounding the pool.
The pool area is inadequate for the number of apartments with little space for sun-loungers due to 2 of the sides being occupied by the pool and snack bar with an open kitchen.
Location
Area Type: In a very rural location, the resort centre with all its amenities is 2.5km away – approximately 30-minutes walk along roads many of which do not have any pavements. There are pleasant views of Faliraki in the distance due to its elevated position and the property is surrounded by agricultural and uncultivated land.
Nearest beach: 3 km (Faliraki Beach)
Public Transport:
1.2 km to Bus
