Kresten Palace ★★★★
Idylliic four-star hilltop escape in beautiful Rhodes.
By Amy Sibley-Allen, VeryChic correspondent
The beautiful Greek Island of Rhodes conjures images of crusading knights and Greek gods, long stretches of beach and dazzling crystalline Aegean waters. The largest of Greece's Dodecanese islands, it's a popular holiday escape, and for good reason. Perched on the hilltop near the colourful village of Koskinou and set amongst 6 hectares of palm-sprinkled gardens, the four-star Kresten Palace is ideally situated to explore the island, just a 15-minute drive from Rhodes Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and a 10-minute walk from its private beach.
From its hilltop vantage point, offering glorious panoramic views, the four-star Kresten Palace is more like a resort than a hotel, with fantastic facilities and an array of activities. With its elegant and modern design and décor, it's the ideal place to base yourself for a trip to this beautiful island. Located in the north and close to the historic Old Town of Rhodes, it couldn't be in a better spot for exploring ancient remnants of historic times.
Closer to the hotel, you'll find the quaint village of Koskinou, with its colourful houses painted in vivid hues of green, blue, and red. Wander its leafy alleys and admire pretty mosaic courtyards and intricate doors made of wood or iron before visiting one of the lively tavernas. Just a short walk from the hotel, you'll also find yourself at the nearby Kavourakia Beach, with a lovely private cove area for guests.
You don't need to venture from the hotel if you don't want to - why not laze around the vast lagoon-like pool with its footbridges and towering palm trees at the centre of the lush grounds? Grab a drink from the poolside bar before returning to your sunbed under the shade of a parasol. There is even a children's pool, a "splash zone", plus a playground in the gardens, so everyone is catered for. Maybe have a game of mini golf, tennis, beach volleyball or play ping pong in the games room.
If that wasn't enough, there's also the enchanting Evridiki Spa by Apivita, where you can enjoy treatments based on ancient oriental and ancient Greek traditions. Afterwards, dine at the buffet restaurant or à la carte on a selection of Mediterranean and International cuisine and then retire to the chic lounge bar, which regularly hosts live entertainment.
