KNOW BEFORE YOU GO

Discover the unspoilt side of Rhodes on the quiet southern coast. This beachfront base blends dunes, nature, turquoise water, and space to breathe. Water sports, sunset views, and chill-out zones come standard. With easy access to Prasonisi and Lindos, you're perfectly placed to explore. Or stay put and soak it in.

Plimmiri sits on the southeast coast of Rhodes, where the Aegean meets a sandy-pebble beach. A stone pier marks the beach's start, stretching into crystal-clear waters. The hotel's water sports station offers catamarans, canoes, windsurfing, and more. Nearby villages range from quiet to buzzing, with surf spots, tavernas, and small shops. The hotel blends into tall trees, rolling dunes, and a peaceful natural bay. Prasonisi Beach, where two seas collide, lies just 18km south. Head 35km north to reach UNESCO-listed Lindos, its majestic Acropolis, and scenic St. Paul's Bay.

Rhodes

The reasons to fall for Rhodes stretch as wide as its sun-kissed coastline. In the once-favoured stronghold of the Knights, history lingers in the stones and streets. That same depth shows up on every plate, from gourmet gems to time-honoured tavernas. Wander the UNESCO-listed Old Town and the iconic Street of the Knights. Dive into Faliraki's buzzing nightlife or discover villages like Archangelos, where music and ceramics still matter. In Afandou, looms still hum with tradition. The Colossus, one of antiquity's Seven Wonders, may be gone, but the wonders keep appearing.

Beaches

Rhodes' southern coast is full of contrasts and raw beauty. Plimmiri brings coarse sand, pebbles, and turquoise waters, perfect for swims, dives, or lazy shade. Prasonisi stretches 3km where two seas collide, with a lighthouse-topped islet and winds that thrill surfers. Even from the hill, the view stuns. Mavros Kavos stands out with its untamed vibe and quiet charm. Votsalo and Mojito Beach keep things calm, with clear water and fewer crowds. Each beach along this southern strip brings something different, wild, remote, or quietly relaxing. No filters needed. Just sea, sky, and the kind of stillness you can feel.

SIGHTSEEING

Starting from Atlantica Plimmiri, a world of discoveries sits within easy reach. Nearby towns shift from quiet villages to beach spots with tavernas, surf shops, and markets. Just 35km away, Lindos glows with whitewashed houses and a UNESCO-listed hilltop Acropolis. Westward, Monolithos impresses with a seaside castle made for sunset views. Travel north to Rhodes' Old Town, another UNESCO site, wrapped in centuries-old stone walls. Walk cobbled streets, pass Hippocrates Square, and reach the Street of the Knights. Nearby, the Gothic Palace of the Grand Master stands with timeless grandeur. Stop at Seven Springs for shaded paths and freshwater dips. Visit the Valley of the Butterflies, a reserve alive with colourful moths. Anthony Quinn Bay shines with marine life and crystal water. Every direction holds something new and beautifully unexpected.
