Villa Georgiou Greece
Holiday Home Rental Description
Villa Georgiou is the kind of property where you can turn up, park your car, walk through the front door and immediately relax. Every care and worry are taken care of, with the toughest decisions to make during your stay being which beach to visit each day!
Located on a hill, overlooking the beautiful, crystal clear waters of Afandou beach, the views are unobstructed, perfect for enjoying evening sunsets, with a glass of wine on your private terrace. Anthony Quinn Bay, Afandou Beach and the well-known Tsampika Beach are all within a ten-minute drive of the villa, giving you plenty of choice!
From the moment you arrive, the contemporary style is evident through the minimalistic, sleek architecture and luxury, modern furnishings. Mixing white with splashes of blue and turquoise, the colour palette emphasises the effect of the sparkling ocean in the distance. Villa Giorgou boasts four luxury, en-suite bedrooms, two with double beds and two offering twins. The bedrooms give the chance to enjoy private moments alone or as a couple, whilst the sociable open-plan living area downstairs, encourages all the guests to come together in one space, enjoying quality time as a group.
From the main living area, doors gracefully open to the terrace, expanding the living space outdoors, joining the interior and exterior together. With the most amazing sea views and a large private swimming pool that can be heated in the cooler months, there is nothing left to be desired! Guests love cooking and dining outdoors, making good use of the barbecue to grill fresh fish and vegetables bought in the local area! With plenty of seating both in the sun and shade, everyone can spend time outdoors, enjoying the relaxing atmosphere and every changing landscape as the sea moves on the horizon.
Just a short drive from Rhodes town, Villa Georgiou is perfect for exploring the island, an ideal holiday retreat! Hugely popular as a tourist destination, Rhodes is an island with more than its fair share of natural beauty and landmark sights. Easy to reach, with an international airport, Diagoras, about 20 minutes’ drive from the capital, it would be a shame to miss out on discovering its charms for yourself.
The town of Rhodes is as good a place to start as any and lies on the northern tip of the island. A walk along the medieval walls of the Old Town will offer you some beautiful views, accessible from the must-see Palace of the Grand Masters. Part of a World Heritage Site, this is also the location of a fine museum which offers the chance to familiarise yourself with Rhodian history, extending as far back as the 3rd century BC.
Another museum worth checking out is the Museum of Modern Greek Art, with an eclectic collection only rivalled by Athens. The New Town area is visually appealing itself, with an Art Deco influence present in much of its architecture. Mandráki harbour is the home of Evangelismós Cathedral, where you can find some impressive frescoes.
Along the coast Lindos Acropolis is as spectacular as the coastal views it enjoys, and definitely worth seeing. Down the coast, you also have resorts such as Ammoudes, Kolympia and, perhaps best-known, Faliraki. While its reputation may precede it, this is not the hedonism capital it once was. A children’s water-park and the beautiful Anthony Quinn Bay may tempt you there during the day, and an aquarium and scuba-diving school also embrace the aquatic theme.
At the very southern tip of the island, Prasonisi’s location – dividing the Aegean and the Mediterranean – is considered prime wind-surfing territory. But if that sounds a little too exhilarating, Rhodes’ more sedate attractions like the Valley of the Butterflies, numerous wineries and the seven springs of the wonderfully scenic Epta Piges nature reserve, will provide just as pleasant a day out.
