Paradise In The Trees

Surrounded by towering trees and out in the quiet hills beyond Rhodes Town, this villa is a shining example of relaxation and calm. The medieval streets and sights of Rhodes Town is 7km away, and a day at the beach awaits just 3km away at Ialisos.

Though we wouldn’t blame you if you spent all your time at the villa itself. An azure swimming pool sits in the manicured lawn, lined with sun loungers. At night, the trees surrounding the pool are uplit, turning this into a magical space after sunset. A huge selection of kids’ pool and lawn toys lets you know this place is family-friendly, and long lazy lunches can be enjoyed on the balustraded terrace above the pool, shaded from the sun. The chef of the group will love the summer kitchen with its built-in grill. Follow the meandering pathways past flowering bushes and greenery to find the secret hot tub beneath a twisting gazebo. This place is full of surprises.

Inside, a sense of seaside-chic and grandeur combine. The dark-wood dining table lined with velvet chairs is a nod to 19th-century splendour, alongside a marble fireplace, candelabra and hand-carved dresser in the lounge. Bedrooms open up to private balconies and terraces, and the master ensuite comes with a glorious corner Jacuzzi tub.
