Zuid-Rhodos: Luxe vakanties

There’s a lot to like about the Aulus Lindos, but after a week we left slightly disappointed. The biggest issue is the gap between the luxury ultra all inclusive 5 star image in the marketing and the reality. No single problem was major, but together they created an experience that never matched expectations. The standout positive was the staff, who were friendly, hardworking and genuinely helpful throughout. The Italian restaurant manager and sole server deserves particular praise, as does the evening cocktail barman, both of whom somehow kept everything running smoothly despite clearly being overstretched. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained, with lush greenery and an attractive stream running through the resort. The rooms appear recently refurbished, but the finish felt rushed. Our bathroom still looked dated, with a leaking tap, poorly fitted shower screen and stained bath, while the balcony felt neglected with marked loungers and a dirty hot tub. Food was decent but not what you’d expect from a luxury resort. Buffets were acceptable, though details like tinned fruit at breakfast felt disappointing. The Italian restaurant was enjoyable but stingy with ingredients, while the Yellow Sea restaurant was poor, especially the duck bao buns. The biggest mismatch with the marketing was the Surfer snack bar, which mostly offered pre made sandwiches and salads that felt closer to motorway service station food than a 5 star resort. The spa treatments were excellent, b

Een geweldig kleinschalig hotel met goede persoonlijke service. Hier kun je optimaal relaxen. Internet en privacy buiten op het terras bij het prove zwembad viel tegen. Echt een aanrader !!!!!

Grote locatie, maar wel keurig geregeld allemaal en alles leek goed onderhouden

Het is in werkelijlheid nog mooier en beter dan in de foto's!
