Lindian Village All-Inclusive Resort, Rhodes hotel review

Simon Calder’s Travel

Tucked away on the wilder, southern side of Rhodes, Lindian Village All-Inclusive Resort is a sprawling, family-friendly oasis that offers a relaxing break for all ages

Location

Lindian Village All-Inclusive Resort is on the east coast of Rhodes, some 13km from the town of Lindos, famed for its Acropolis and picturesque sandy beach. It is about an hour from the Rhodes airport (60km) and the famous Unesco World Heritage Rhodes old town. The hotel is in a rural setting, with a handful of tavernas and shops dotted around, but not much else. If you are in the mood for a resort holiday where you mainly enjoy the facilities at the hotel, this is your place.

Rustic, minimal and chic – the resort is low key and casual. A babbling stream with waterfalls runs through the centre of the resort, which is, as the name suggests, a village of rooms, restaurants, bars and shops. The swimming area is large, with three pools of varying depths surrounded by a wealth of sun loungers. Beyond that is the private beach, which is pebbly and, in all honesty, could do with a bit of care.

Part of the Hilton Curio Collection, the hotel was opened in the nineties but has been extended over the years. For 2025, Lindian Village has gone all-inclusive for the first time.

My daughter requested fish fingers for lunch and dinner every day for a week – and her (off menu!) demands were always met with warmth and grace. Elpida at guest relations was a total superstar, with no request too small.

Bed and bath

There are 188 rooms and suites across four categories. At the top is Ottoman, then River Passage, Bohemian and finally Mediterraneo or Standard. There is an impressive variety of room options, especially for families. Many offer the ability to section-off bedrooms or sleeping areas. All of the Standard rooms are large enough to comfortably fit a cot and the Standard family rooms also have a pull-out bed.

Every room features outdoor space, be it an expansive patio with hot tub or a simple sea-view balcony. Inside, you’ll find…
