Well located, 8 m walk to 3 amazing beaches, hotel was constantly being cleaned, grass trimmed and pools cleaned daily, majority of the staff were welcoming and always smiley and helpful, the cleaner would come to our room always with a big smile and keen to provide best service possible. Maria at the front desk was always helpful, restaurant staff always helpful and smiley even in the busy periods.
Only negatives:
1 - you have to pay for bottled water even if you have all inclusive (not acceptable).
2 - bar staff stain the amazing job every other member of staff does, no effort, mechanical, not a smile or engagement, bordering rudeness.

Just spent one week at this fantastic hotel! Even before the stay, they showed their superb service. I traveled with my mother and wanted to make sure we had two single beds and not a double bed, and was met with understanding and great service.
The area of the hotel is very well kept and you can see that the staff takes pride in keeping it clean and nice for their guests. Even though this is a five star resort, the atmosphere is very laid back and friendly and not "posh".
The animation team is great at keeping up activities for the guests without being too "pushy" on the ones that just want to relax.
The cleaning staff is super, the room was perfectly cleaned every single day!
We had all inclusive, and the variety of the food was excellent and the food was good in most cases, only occasionally something was a bit bland, but that is up to each and everyone's taste. I have no doubt that anyone will be able to find food they like at every single meal! In addition to the buffet, the gyros and pizza was really tasty and easily available.
It is walking distance to the beach, bus to Rhodes and Lindos right outside the hotel, several large super markets and to my great surprise there is no traffic worth mentioning that bothers the guests. The only noise I experienced was a truly eager rooster somewhere close by.
All in all, this week has been about as perfect as I had hoped, and I thank the staff for making it a memorable experience!

We have just arrived back after a week staying here, we had a wonderful break & would love to return one day. The main thing is the staff are extremely friendly! Gustavo & evelina being outstanding during our stay for us! But everyone was fantastic. The only thing I would mention is the beds are a little hard could do with some toppers and the evening food is a bit sameish but there’s some lovely places to eat out and the pizza and gyros things they have 11-5 is amazing. Very child friendly. Will be back one day :)

We came out to Rhodes for a friend’s wedding and if we’re honest we picked this hotel as it was £1000 per person cheaper than the wedding hotel 5 mins down the road (The Atlantic imperial)
And all in all it was a lovely stay and couldn’t really ask for more considering we paid half of what they paid!
HOWEVER!
Both are 5 star hotels and both had about the same amount of reviews and stars for the stays.
But you could 100% see the difference between the 2 and where the extra £1000 pp goes.
Its like ok, nice, a 3 year old BMW, it nice and nothing to complain about, then You go to your mate place and they’ve got a brand new Mercedes AMG and your like….. I want that one instead 🙏🤣🫣
Rooms nice and clean
Staff super friendly
Food is ok, but if you’ve done Mexico 5 star then you will be a little let down.
Pool is clean and tidy
Evening entertainment is an average at best.
Great for kids. (We didn’t bring ours) 🫣🤣🤘
Had to pay extra for “top end drinks or iced coffee” but again not end of the world.
Well placed just off the main road, 2 mins from the main area, it’s not busy. 20 shops 3/4 restaurants and bars
All in all a nice chilled, friendly week and no complaints at all.
Just it’s more of a 4 star, comparing to down the road.

Our holiday started on 15/10/2024 at the wonderful Lydia Maris Resort & Spa in Kolymbia on the sunny island of Rhodes. we felt warmth, coziness and hospitality as soon as we entered the hotel, a great place for both couples and families with children. I will start with the weather, because it is one of the important things for a perfect holiday. mornings in October are a bit chilly 16°-17° to 18° a good refreshing start, during the day temperatures are around 25°-26° to 27°, for a perfect relaxation around the pool, with a coffee or a cocktail of your choice. we were extremely impressed by the cleanliness and maintenance everywhere in the hotel, the friendly, lovely and responsive ladies at the reception, all the staff at the restaurant, the guys at the pool bar, the ladies (maids) who took care of the cleanliness of our room to make us feel comfortable as we feel at home, animation team Evelina, Gustavo and Alex, taking care of the good mood of tourists every single day with water gym, table tennis, darts, mini disco, karaoke, music quizzes, the wonderful ladies with magic hands from the spa - we can say a big thank you, because you are all tireless, smiling and sunny people, and you make people happy. we were also very pleased with the food in the main restaurant which was very fresh and varied every day, also the pleasure of enjoying Greek gyros and oven baked pizza if you feel hungry during the day. a few steps from the pool there is a neat little shop where you can find necessary things for your holiday (if you accidentally forgot something), refreshments, ice cream, as well as souvenirs and gifts. we highly recommend Lydia Maris Resort& Spa, it is worth it to spend an unforgettable holiday in this peaceful place. thank you from the bottom of our hearts and see you again.
