Hotel Description

You know what’s funny about finding great places in Greece? Sometimes the best spots are tucked away in villages you’d never think to Google. Kostas Village House is one of those gems – it’s in Psinthos, which honestly, most people drive right through on their way to somewhere else on Rhodes. But that’s exactly what makes this place special.

I mean, when you first pull up, it doesn’t scream “hotel” at all. It actually looks like someone’s incredibly well-kept family compound, which – knowing Greek hospitality – it probably started as. The whole setup feels authentic in a way that’s getting harder to find. You’re about a 20-minute drive from Rhodes town, but far enough inland that you escape all that coastal tourist chaos. The village itself is real working Greece – there’s a little kafeneio where the older guys play backgammon, and you’ll hear roosters in the morning (fair warning if you’re a light sleeper, though honestly, it becomes charming after the first day).

What really gets me about Kostas Village House is how they’ve managed to nail that sweet spot between comfort and character. The rooms feel like staying at your Greek aunt’s house, if your aunt happened to have impeccable taste and really good WiFi. Everything’s clean and thoughtfully done – proper hot water pressure, air conditioning that actually works, those little details that matter when you’re trying to rinse off Rhodes’ summer heat. The traditional architecture isn’t just for show either; those thick stone walls keep things naturally cool during the day. And the courtyard areas? Perfect for evening wine with the kind of quiet you forget exists until you’re sitting in it.

The family running the place (and yes, it’s definitely family-run) has this knack for being helpful without hovering. They’ll point you toward the hiking trails in the hills behind the village, or tell you which taverna in nearby Soroni actually makes their own wine. Speaking of getting around – you’ll want a car here, but parking’s never an issue, and honestly, having wheels gives you access to some incredible spots that tour buses can’t reach. The drive to Kameiros ruins takes maybe fifteen minutes, and you can hit some spectacular beaches on the west coast without fighting crowds.

I’ll be straight with you – this isn’t party central, and if you need to be walking distance from nightlife, look elsewhere. But if you want to experience Rhodes beyond the resort strips, if you appreciate places where the 9.5 rating comes from genuine care rather than flashy amenities, then Kostas Village House delivers something increasingly rare. It’s the kind of place where you actually slow down, where you might find yourself chatting with neighbors over the garden wall, where you remember why you wanted to travel in the first place. Plus, at four stars, it punches well above its weight in terms of value and authentic experience.

  • Erika from Austria – 26 July 2023 (10/10)

    We came to Kostas cottage after we were evacuated from the hotel due to a fire. We found this accommodation ourselves. We couldn't even find a better one. The accommodation was very cozy and clean. It is a few steps from the center of this small village, where you can find taverns. The owner Kostas is a wonderful young man. Together with his family, were very helpful to us. If you want to experience something completely different, choose this accommodation. It is in the mountains, you can feel the atmosphere of Greece. For a few euros, you can rent a car and visit all the nice places in Rhodes.

    Kostas, many thanks again. I believe that we will come back to you again. Greetings!

    Casa singola bellissima, pulita, accogliente, con tutto il necessario per cucinare, in più dotata di lavastoviglie, lavatrice, forno, macchina caffè, caminetto. Arredata con gusto. Al centro del paese, comoda ai ristoranti. In posizione strategica per visitare tutta l'isola. Padroni di casa gentilissimi; ci hanno accompagnato, ci hanno fatto trovare frutta fresca, bibite, vino, capsule caffè, acqua minerale, perfino il panettone! E si sono resi disponibili per qualsiasi evenienza.
    Posto consigliatissimo.

  • Anastasia from Greece – 15 October 2024 (10/10)

    Τέλειο!!!
    Υπέροχη διαμονή, ευγενικότατοι οικοδεσπότες μας πρόσφεραν σχεδόν τα πάντα. Το σπίτι είναι πλήρως εξοπλισμένο, όμορφο και πολύ καθαρό! Το πρωί και το απόγευμα απολαμβάναμε τον καφέ μας στην βεράντα. Στην πλατεία του χωριού υπάρχουν υπέροχες ταβέρνες και καφέ. Θα ξανάρθουμε οπωσδήποτε!!!

  • Filip from Czech Republic – 1 October 2024 (9/10)

    Klidné místo

    What could be improved: Nemám co vytknout, snad jen, podle fotografií nebylo poznat, že na terasu nikdy nejde slunce.
    V horkém počasí určitě výhodné, jinak tam bývá chladněji. Ale není to výtka, jen postřeh.

  • Nicoletta from Italy – 12 August 2024 (9/10)

    Casa molto confortevole con tutto quello che necessita
    La posizione è ottima per visitare l’isola, il paesino tranquillo, con supermarket, farmacia, caffè e varie taverne dove poter mangiare.

  • Stamoulias from Greece – 29 July 2024 (10/10)

    Οι οικοδεσπότες ήταν φιλικοί και ευχάριστοι. Μας περίμεναν κατά την άφιξή μας στο σπίτι με χαμόγελο, πρόθυμοι να μας εξυπηρετήσουν και να μας λύσουν κάθε απορία. Επιπλέον, είχαν φροντίσει να υπάρχουν στο ψυγείο αναψυκτικά και νερό που πρόσφεραν στα παιδιά μας, καθώς επίσης και φρούτα.
    Το σπίτι του Κώστα είναι πεντακάθαρο, άνετο και πλήρες εξοπλισμένο, με ανέσεις που δύσκολα συναντά κανείς σε ενοικιαζόμενο κατάλυμα.
    Η τοποθεσία του σπιτιού είναι αρκετά καλή, πολύ κοντά στην πλατεία του χωριού, όπου μπορεί κανείς να βρει περιμετρικά φαρμακείο, σούπερ μαρκετ, φούρνο και ωραίες ταβέρνες. Το χωριό της Ψίνθου στο οποίο βρίσκεται είναι αρκετά ήσυχο και ο χρόνος για την μετάβαση σε διάφορα αξιοθέατα της Ρόδου είναι σύντομος. Για παράδειγμα, απέχει 35 λεπτά από την πόλη της Ρόδου, 15 λεπτά από την κοιλάδα με τις πεταλούδες, 15 λεπτά από την παραλία Αφάντου, 20 λεπτά από την Ιερά μονή Παναγίας Τσαμπίκας, 35 λεπτά από το Μοναστήρι Φιλέρημος, 45 λεπτά από την Λίνδο.

    What could be improved: Δεν υπάρχει κάτι που να μην μας άρεσε.

  • Mariusz from Poland – 21 July 2023 (10/10)

    Apartament posiadał wszystkie udogodnienia do miłego odpoczynku. Bardzo spokojna lokalizacja przy samym centrum miasteczka, gdzie w pobliżu znajdowały się sklepy oraz restauracje.

  • Jean from France – 9 November 2023 (6/10)

    La cuisine et le séjour sont fonctionnelles

    What could be improved: La chambre, pas d'appliques murales, donc descendre l'escalier pour éteindre la lumière d'en bas, et la chambre est toute petite, pas de table de nuit, donc rien pour poser ses affaires, et on ne peux pas faire le tour du lit, car c'est juste un matelas, et pas d'autre place. De plus l'escalier pour y accéder est assez raide.

  • Anonymous from Greece – 20 August 2023 (10/10)

    Άνετο διαμέρισμα, πεντακάθαρο και πλήρως εξοπλισμένο με τα πάντα! Οι ευγενέστατοι ιδιοκτήτες έχουν προβλέψει κάθε ανάγκη των επισκεπτών τους! Τα παιδιά μας χάρηκαν πολύ με τα μπαλόνια που βρήκαμε μέσα στο διαμέρισμα! ❤️
    Ιδανικό κατάλυμα για διακοπές και όχι μόνο!
    Το συστήνω ανεπιφύλακτα!

    What could be improved: Όλα ήταν τέλεια, δεν έχω να σημειώσω κάτι αρνητικό.
