Rhodes Town

Holidays in Rhodes Town offer a fusion of Old Town charm, beautiful beaches, excellent shopping, and dazzling nightlife. Rhodes Town is the largest resort on the island, and is also the capital. The modern town is packed with shops, chic boutiques, bars and restaurants, while the picturesque Old Town is positively bursting with historical treasures, pretty squares and narrow streets.

Rhodes Old Town has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is comprised of a maze of narrow streets, breathtaking 16th-century architecture, and archaeological riches. Holidays in Rhodes Town are not complete without a visit to the Old Town's Turkish baths, the Streets of the Knights of St John, the Mosque of Suleiman, and the 14th-century Palace of the Grand Masters.

The long sand and shingle Psaropoula Beach is perfect for sunbathing, swimming and water sports. Those seeking a break from the beach can browse the boutiques and shops for souvenirs, local handicrafts, jewellery and clothes. Evenings are spent moseying round Madriki harbour, with its wealth of luxury yachts, dining on locally caught seafood in the Old Town, or enjoying international dishes in the modern resort. Bar Street offers a dizzying selection of bars, discos and nightclubs.
