Villa Horatio Greece
Holiday Home Rental Description
Sleek and modern with some of the most enchanting views on the island, Villa Horatio is a Grecian escape like no other. Set on the hill of Kokkinagremos, just 4km from Faliraki on the island of Rhodes, the villa has access to picturesque beaches, bustling eateries, bars and cafes, whilst also enjoying its own secluded setting.
Newly built, every inch of this property both inside and out is stylish and contemporary, with modern furnishings, as well as all the new fittings and fixtures you need for a comfortable stay.

All of the bedrooms have brand new beds, with uber-comfortable mattresses, fresh linens, air-conditioning, heating and access to the villas unlimited WiFi.
Whilst the bedrooms offer space for private moments as individuals and couples, the main living areas are sociable and open-plan, perfect for entertaining the whole group. The living room is stylishly decorated, with a large flat-screen television, there is a laid-back atmosphere to this space, so kids can curl up and watch TV, whilst adults cook in the open kitchen and others splash in the pool outside. Sliding glass doors open out from the bright living room onto the terrace, extending the living room outdoors and allowing sunlight to flood into the living spaces. There is also a dining table in the living area, perfect for relaxed breakfasts or indoor meals.
Outside, the breath-taking views are the star of the show, with the ocean on the horizon making it impossible not to relax! Two kilometres away from the famous beach of Antony Quinn, guests can enjoy days on the coast, before returning to the villas gorgeous terrace for a dip in the private infinity pool, followed by an evening aperitif! The sun deck, barbecue and outdoor living and dining areas are beautifully elegant, perfect for unforgettable evenings as a group, making the most of the warm Grecian climate. Situated between Lindos and Rhodes town and just a 5 minute drive from the blue flag awarded beach of Afantou. The Anthony Quinn bay is just 2 miles away. Hugely popular as a tourist destination, Rhodes is an island with more than its fair share of natural beauty and landmark sights.
The town of Rhodes, a 10 mile drive, 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.
The Lindos Acropolis is as spectacular as the coastal views it enjoys, and 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 windsurfing 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.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
