Tommy’s Rooms

Tommy’s Rooms Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Tommy’s Rooms on Main Street in Haraki, I honestly wasn’t expecting much from what looked like a simple guesthouse. But you know what? Sometimes the best places are the ones that surprise you. This three-star property has that authentic Greek charm that you just can’t manufacture — it feels like staying at a friend’s place rather than some corporate hotel chain.

Location & Getting Around

The location is actually fantastic, and I mean that. Haraki is this lovely little fishing village on Rhodes, and Tommy’s sits right where you want to be — close enough to the beach that you can hear the waves, but tucked away from any tourist chaos. The parking situation alone makes this place worth considering; finding free private parking anywhere in Greece these days is like striking gold. I watched other travelers circle around looking for spots while I just strolled out from the property. Plus, couples seem to really get it — they’ve rated the location over 9 out of 10, which honestly makes sense when you see how peaceful the area is.

The Room Experience

My room was clean and comfortable — nothing fancy, but everything worked perfectly. The air conditioning was a lifesaver during those hot August afternoons, and the Wi-Fi was surprisingly reliable (you’d be amazed how often that’s not the case in smaller Greek properties). What I really appreciated was how quiet everything was at night. The windows actually block out noise, so you can sleep with them open and just listen to the sea breeze rustling through the trees.

The Haraki Experience

Here’s what makes staying here special — Haraki itself is still relatively undiscovered compared to other spots on Rhodes. You’ve got this gorgeous pebble beach literally a few minutes’ walk away, and the water is that incredible turquoise you see in postcards. There’s a handful of tavernas nearby where locals actually eat (always a good sign), and the whole village has this relaxed vibe that’s getting harder to find on the Greek islands. I spent most evenings just wandering around, chatting with fishermen, and watching the sunset paint the medieval castle ruins on the hill.

Why Guests Love It

Tommy’s Rooms works because it doesn’t try to be something it’s not. The recent guest ratings speak for themselves — over 9 out of 10 for location tells you everything you need to know. It’s the kind of place where Tommy (yes, there’s actually a Tommy) remembers your name and asks about your day. The value is excellent for what you get, especially considering that prime beachfront location and the free parking. If you’re looking for a genuine Greek island experience without the crowds and inflated prices of Santorini or Mykonos, this little spot in Haraki delivers exactly that.

To book a hotel in Rhodes during Orthodox Easter, visitors plan ahead to balance candlelit vigils with Symi boat excursions.
