OSSIANO POOL VILLAS, Heating Pool, 2 min drive to Haraki Beach & 10 to Lindos

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about Ossiano Pool Villas? The name actually makes sense – these aren’t just generic vacation rentals with a fancy title slapped on. The heated pools are genuinely impressive, and honestly, after spending a few days here, I can’t imagine staying anywhere without one. There’s something almost magical about slipping into warm water while looking out toward the Aegean, especially in the evenings when most other pools would be too cold.

The location on Beach Road Massari is pretty much perfect if you’re trying to balance that “authentic Greek island” vibe with actual convenience. Haraki itself is still refreshingly low-key – you won’t find cruise ship crowds here, just locals going about their business and a handful of travelers who’ve figured out this little secret. The two-minute drive to Haraki Beach isn’t marketing speak either; I timed it. And the beach? Well, it’s one of those pebbly Rhodes gems that’s somehow more charming than the sandy tourist magnets. The water’s incredibly clear, and there’s this little taverna right on the shore where the owner, Yannis, makes probably the best grilled octopus I’ve had in Greece (and I’ve had a lot).

What really sold me on this place was how thoughtfully everything’s set up. The villas feel genuinely private – you’re not hearing your neighbors’ conversations or dealing with shared pool drama. I mean, the heating system alone shows they’ve thought about actual comfort rather than just Instagram appeal. During my stay in late April, when the weather was still a bit unpredictable, that heated pool was absolutely clutch. The drive to Lindos takes closer to fifteen minutes if you’re being realistic about Greek driving speeds, but honestly, that’s ideal. You can do the whole Lindos thing – climb up to the acropolis, wander through those gorgeous white-washed streets, grab dinner at one of the rooftop places – then escape back to your own slice of quiet.

The check-in was refreshingly straightforward too. No hovering staff or complicated key card systems, just clear directions and everything you need to settle in. Parking’s easy (which, if you’ve driven around Rhodes, you know is worth mentioning), and the whole setup feels more like borrowing a friend’s really nice place than staying at a hotel. I’d definitely come back, probably in late spring again when the island’s green and wild but the summer crowds haven’t arrived yet.

  Рекомендую на все 100%. Комфортное жилье и заботливые владельцы, которые помогали в каждом вопросе! Близко к пляжу Агати для нас было находкой в конце октября, так как там было очень тепло! Дом новый и очень чистый, хорошо оборудован. Мы остались очень довольны нашим пребыванием и большое спасибо за заботу владельцам!
