Overview
Sitting pretty on the sun-kissed shores of Kiotari, Al Mare Villas is an intimate Greek hideaway that feels more like a private home than a hotel. With just 17 studios, apartments and stone-built villas – many with their own pools – this is where you come for slow mornings, sea views and sunset swims overlooking the Aegean. Every unit has a kitchenette, so you can flip between taverna suppers and easy nights in on your own terrace.

Map & location
Kiotari, Rhodes, Greece
Al Mare Villas enjoys a peaceful seafront setting in Kiotari on Rhodes’ south-east coast. This stretch of shoreline is known for its long, Blue Flag–awarded beach and relaxed vibe, far from the busier resorts in the north.
You’re close enough to walk or drive into Kiotari for tavernas and low-key bars, yet tucked away enough to feel secluded. Rhodes’ headline historic sight, the hilltop Acropolis at Lindos, is an easy 20‑minute drive – perfect for an early-morning wander before the crowds, or a romantic evening visit.
Inland, the island’s pine-cloaked hills and medieval ruins are ripe for exploring by car, while day trips to the Valley of the Butterflies or Rhodes Town can round out a longer stay.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
This is very much a villa-style stay rather than a big resort, so the focus is on your own outdoor space and the shoreline beyond.
• Many villas and some units come with a private swimming pool and sunbeds – perfect for lazy days in total privacy.
• Non-pool units still benefit from sun terraces or balconies, many with open sea views.
• The property has a seafront location, placing you close to the water’s edge for a quick dip or coastal stroll.
• Kiotari’s long Blue Flag beach, around 1.3km away, offers pedalos, parasailing and plenty of room to stretch out with a book.
Pool towel availability can vary – check with reception on arrival if these are provided or need to be brought from home.
Spa, sports & wellness
Al Mare Villas is intentionally simple on facilities – the emphasis is on space, scenery and independent living rather than a packed activity schedule.
On-site you’ll find:
• Reception – open around 12 hours per day, seven days a week
• Free Wi‑Fi throughout
• Occasional support with taxi bookings, car hire and local recommendations
There is no on-site spa or gym, but nearby Kiotari and Lindos offer beach activities, boat trips, and a choice of wellness and sports options if you’d like to be more active during your stay.
Activities
Al Mare Villas itself is designed as a tranquil base, so organised activities are intentionally minimal. Instead, think:
• Relaxing by your private pool or terrace
• Coastal walks along the Kiotari seafront
• Dips at the nearby Blue Flag beach
• Evenings spent stargazing from your villa deck
Beyond the property, Kiotari offers watersports such as pedalos and parasailing, while Lindos and Rhodes Town provide boat trips, historic sightseeing, boutique browsing and rooftop bars – easy to combine into a flexible, tailor-made itinerary with Travelisto.
Guest services
• Reception open ~12 hours per day, 7 days a week
• Friendly local team for restaurant tips and excursion ideas
• Free Wi‑Fi throughout the property
• Daily housekeeping and towel change
• Assistance with taxis and local transport (on request)
There’s no 24-hour front desk or large-resort infrastructure here – and that’s part of the charm. Stays feel personal, independent and unhurried.
Food & drink
Start your day with breakfast by the sea, and keep lunches and sundowners casual at the on-site venue. Menus blend Greek comfort dishes with international staples, ideal if you’re staying for a week or more.
On-site dining
• Galouni Bay – Buffet and à la carte options serving a range of international and Greek cuisine for breakfast and daytime snacks. Highchairs and a microwave are available for families with younger guests. Typically open 27 Apr–31 Oct, depending on occupancy.
A smart-casual dress code may apply for dinner. Reservations may be required for à la carte service, and any supplements can depend on the board basis you’ve booked. Opening times and inclusions may change seasonally, so confirm locally on arrival.
