Description Breaststroke Bliss: Rhodes

Settle into this traditional villa sunken into the beautiful natural landscape and peaceful environment of rural Rhodes. Located in Ladiko near the breathtaking Anthony Quinn bay, you're a five-minute drive to sandy beaches, while a short taxi into town will have you surrounded by authentic tavernas and lively cafe-bars.

Days begin outside with a fresh Greek coffee in hand under the shaded pergola, listening to the gentle sounds of the rustling cypress trees and green foliage all around. Swim a few leisurely up and downs in the private pool, before picking out a lounger to laze the hours away in the hot Mediterranean sun. When lunchtime beckons, there's a modern chef's kitchen that will make preparing meals a breeze, or, better still, grill local produce on the brick barbecue outside and feast together on the terrace – pre-dinner drinks go down a treat here.
