Thea Villas and Suite

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about Thea Villas and Suite? It’s positioned perfectly in Lindos where you can actually walk to the ancient acropolis without dealing with the crazy tourist crowds that clog up the main village streets during peak hours. I mean, you’re still in Lindos proper, but there’s this sense of being slightly removed from the chaos – which honestly makes all the difference when you’re trying to enjoy your morning coffee without dodging selfie sticks.

The property feels more intimate than your typical 4-star setup. The suites have this authentic Greek island vibe without trying too hard, if that makes sense. White-washed walls, natural stone accents, and these lovely little terraces where you can actually hear the waves if you listen carefully. What I really appreciated was the attention to practical details – proper blackout curtains (seriously underrated when you’re jet-lagged), decent water pressure in the showers, and air conditioning that doesn’t sound like a helicopter landing. The kitchenettes are genuinely useful too, not just for show. There’s a small supermarket about a five-minute walk down toward the beach where you can grab fresh bread and local honey for breakfast, which beats paying hotel prices for mediocre pastries.

The staff here actually know the area well – they’ll tell you to hit Lindos Beach early morning or late afternoon to avoid the cruise ship crowds, and they’re spot-on about restaurant recommendations. They steered me toward this little taverna up one of the quieter side streets where the moussaka was incredible and the prices were reasonable. Location-wise, you’re about a ten-minute stroll to the main square and those famous narrow cobblestone streets, but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the late-night noise from the bars. Parking can be tricky during summer months (welcome to Rhodes), but the hotel has arrangements with a lot nearby. The 8.8 rating feels right – it’s not luxury resort territory, but it delivers exactly what you’d hope for in a Greek island stay. Honestly, I’d come back, especially during shoulder season when Lindos shows its quieter, more charming side.

  Location and outdoor space
  
  What could be improved: Nothing

• Sarah from United Kingdom – 2 November 2024 (9/10)

  Location was perfect. A few minutes walk to the beach and village. Amazing view from terrace – sea view to front and view to side of Acropolis and village (Thea 2). Well equipped kitchen.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing

• Helen from United Kingdom – 27 September 2024 (9/10)

  The location was great, it was clean and had everything we needed
  
  What could be improved: Nothing to not like

• Jan from United Kingdom – 25 September 2024 (9/10)

  Location is very good but not if you have mobility problems as it is accessed by very dangerous steps unless you go through the village which takes longer and still involves steps
  
  What could be improved: Nothing really apart from the safe which didn't work and not enough coat hangers. Rhodes is overrun by cats and kittens and this can be very upsetting.

• Natalia from Italy – 9 September 2024 (9/10)

  Great location close both to the beach and town, beautiful window view and nice traditional atmosphere in the rooms, the sweetest host that is super-available and gives great advice
  
  What could be improved: A bit of a problem with ants, damp smell at the entrance/kitchen, the shower needs some improving

• Melissa from United Kingdom – 7 September 2024 (9/10)

  Location perfect with view of the sea and access to shops and restaurants

• Danilo from Canada – 14 August 2024 (9/10)

  The location was great, at the base of the village close to the main Lindos beach. The apartment had a very nice view of the Lindos bay and the Acropolis. The apartment is renovated in a traditional / rustic Lindos style. The beds were very comfortable, kitchen fully stacked and the terrace very nice for relaxing after a “hard” day at the beach. The village centre with all the shops and restaurants is only 5 minute walk.

• Ilan from Israel – 19 July 2024 (9/10)

  Beautiful apartment, great balcony with ocean view, 5 minutes walk from the beach and 2 minutes from the village center

• Sarah from United Kingdom – 15 July 2024 (9/10)

  Location Great as halfway between the beach and the village so not too onerous of a climb! You do need to be happy with doing steps up to the village and a bit careful after a few wines to come back down!
  
  What could be improved: Nothing really that we could fault

• Remigijus from Lithuania – 30 June 2024 (9/10)

  Really liked the apartment, especially the location – a few minutes to the beach and a few minutes to the central roundabout. Great memories.
