This hotel has a beautiful location and the service from staff is impeccable. They try their best to cater for allergies as well. The evening entertainment is great live music and the grounds are lovely. The rooms are tired and in need of a bit of TLC. It is a taxi drive into lindos town and there can be a bit of a wait for the taxi but you can wait in reception. We enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it but would not agree with the 5* rating for the rooms. The staff are what make the holiday, from the reception staff to the pool bar and the bar staff everyone was lovely! The spa was also very nice and a lovely treatment.

I spent my 30th birthday at Lindos Villge Spa and Resort on my own as a little retreat. I was nervous about my first ever holiday being alone and how I was going to be treated. But I can categorically say, I was treated like a princess from the second I arrived up until I was collected to go home.
The food was incredible and fresh and beautiful, everything was sparkling clean and crisp like a palace.
Even though the family hotel is next door there was absolutely no noise pollution at all. It sits perfectly on a hill and has the most incredible view of the sea. There is a million steps to go to the pool but I honestly did not care, because the views from everywhere you stood were serene and perfect. And there are slopes alongside to accommodate those who can’t do stairs.
The spa treatment was incredible too I felt like a new woman. At no point did I ever feel unsafe as a solo female traveller, everyone was professional and helpful.
Hand on heart, the best holiday I’ve ever had and I will be booking for my birthday again next year too. Cannot wait to come back and see more of Lindos.
Thank you so much!

Wouldn’t give this hotel 5 stars at all! Terrible experience. The hotel is dirty, broken and stinks. The room was really basics and had things again broken and dirty. The food was basic, the pool was small and basic. Meant to be adults only but there is a kids pools with slides the other side of the wall. Rubble and digger outside the hotel entrance which isn’t appealing. The hotel does not reflect a 5 star. The only thing good about this hotel is the receptionist Maria who was very helpful and the lemonade given to us on arrival was lovely. This hotel needs a massive clean and upgrade and lowered star rating.

A Relaxing Stay with Gorgeous Views – but Not Quite 5-Star
We recently stayed here and overall had a lovely holiday, but there are a few things worth mentioning if you’re considering it.
The pool area is beautiful with a great view, and the service – especially from the pool boys – was excellent. The gyros at the pool bar were delicious, though the tzatziki was a bit disappointing. Breakfast offered plenty of variety (I loved my daily omelette!), but the orange juice was far too watered down.
The beach is a pebble beach, so definitely bring water shoes, but once you’re in, the sea is calm and lovely. The Banana Beach Bar was a highlight – such a cute little oasis with great food and chilled vibes – and we loved the golf cart service to and from the beach. However, for a supposed 5-star resort, the sunbeds could really be better – they’d benefit from proper cushioned mattresses like you’d expect at this level.
On the downside, the hotel doesn’t quite live up to its 5-star promise. From the outside it looks luxurious, but the rooms, while comfortable, are a bit shabby around the edges and could use a refurb. There’s also a barren patch of grass near the bottom of the property that would benefit from some greenery.
A couple of practical notes: there are a lot of steps (it’s on a hillside), so bear that in mind if you have mobility issues. The on-site supermarket is handy, but waiting for taxis to town can be frustrating – sometimes up to 45 minutes, and people jumping the queue doesn’t help!
Some odd touches: the cleaners sometimes leave used cutlery or glasses outside the rooms, which isn’t very 5-star either. Also, there’s no ice cream freezer by the pool, which felt like a missed opportunity.
All that said, we really did enjoy our stay – the weather was perfect, the pool and sea were gorgeous, and despite a few quirks, it was a relaxing break. With a bit of updating and attention to detail, this place could easily live up to its 5-star potential.

This hotel was quite disappointing and not at all what the photos looked like. It is much closer to a 3 star hotel, think Travelodge, Greece edition. We booked the double deluxe panoramic sea view and I would not consider it ‘panoramic” unless you went to the furthest corner of the deck and hung yourself half over the edge.
There was a handful of things that contributed to my low review:
- If you’re a larger person, good luck going to the washroom. The toilet is almost under the sink, your legs sit under it while you use it.
- The shower doesn’t drain so you’re standing in water all the time and it overflows onto the bathroom floor.
- The soap bottles in the shower are worn off, so you don’t know what they are.
- The bathroom REEKS of urine. Not sure why, and not sure I want to know why. Seems like it backs up through the toilet or something each time you flush. Smells like a truck stop outhouse.
- There is not a single hook to hang your wet towel in the bathroom or the room.
- If you’re over 5’7” good luck showering because the shower head is freakishly short.
- There is no where to put the toilet paper so it sits on the counter that barley has enough room in itself so it gets wet every time you wash your hands.
- You get 2 caffeinated coffee pods and if you want more for the rest of your stay you have to pay 2 € per pod.
- Rooms are just outdated in general and could really benefit from a renovation.
- They need to re-silicone the shower because it’s dirty and old.
- They have music every single night until quite late (10:30-11) and you hear everything despite the door being closed so if you are hoping to catch some sleep, don’t count on it until late.
The pros:
- the breakfast buffet is quite good, big selection and generally tasty.
- The staff are lovely and very friendly.
