The 407-room Mitsis Rhodos Village Beach Hotel is a budget-friendly mountainside resort with five stylish pools, a private shingle beach, and tennis courts. The hillside location can be difficult for guests with limited mobility -- the property contains many stairs. Rooms are spacious with scenic balconies, but decor is dated with patterned bedspreads and old tube TVs. There is a variety of dining and drinking options, plus entertainment for the kids and nightly shows in a hillside amphitheater. For a hotel closer to sea level, check out the Horizon Line Villas.

Scene
Mountaintop family resort
The Mitsis Rhodos Village Beach Hotel is located on a beautiful hillside that overlooks the blue waters of Kiotari beach. The hill landscape is designed into the hotel with eye-catching, exposed rock walls near the glass elevators. The outdoor common areas are filled with flowers and greenery, arched doorways, and sloped hills and steps that lead to stunning views of the sea. From the glass elevators you can see the indoor pool with a charming rock wall waterfall, atrium ceiling, and cushioned lounge chairs. The lobby is bright and spacious with an arched wooden doorway that frames the picturesque sea in the background. A luxurious marble staircase with intricate metal handrails leads to the lobby's second level, where there's a comfortable seating area with black couches.
Location
On a hill overlooking Kiotari beach
From the hotel a day trip to the town of Lindos, a more touristy area with shopping and dining, takes 24 minutes by car. The Kiotari beach is a five-minute walk from the hotel and offers surfboard and kayak rentals -- plus other water sports. The hotel's private shingle beach features wooden bathrooms, changing rooms, showers, and free blue umbrellas and lounge chairs for guests. A beach volleyball court, petanque court, and archery lanes are also available. The airport will take about an hour and fifteen minutes by car. A trip to the ancient town of Rhodes is an hour car trip.
Rooms
Large rooms with picturesque views and old tube TVs
