Overview

 
Perched above shimmering Navarone Bay, Lindos Sun feels like a secret hillside hideaway. Whitewashed buildings, stone details and bougainvillea-draped terraces give this 4-star retreat a classic Greek-island feel, while the atmosphere is blissfully unhurried. With just 75 rooms, an inviting freshwater pool and a trio of restaurants, it’s a tranquil base for exploring postcard-pretty Lindos – or simply lingering over long, lazy days in the sun.

An elevated setting with sweeping views of Navarone Bay sets the tone at Lindos Sun. Think white-and-stone architecture, terracotta roofs and a serene pool terrace framed by low hills and big blue skies. By day it’s all about relaxing with a book and a cool drink; by night the mood shifts to candlelit dinners, cocktails on the terrace and stargazing above the bay. For couples seeking Greece’s sun-baked charm without the crowds, Lindos Sun delivers a wonderfully laid-back escape. It’s around 1 hour 50 minutes from Rhodes Airport, with the nearest sandy beach 800m away and Lindos’ whitewashed village just 1km down the road. See more Greece holidays.

Map & location


Lindos, Rhodes, Greece

Lindos Sun occupies a peaceful hillside position just outside Lindos, one of Rhodes’ prettiest villages. Whitewashed houses, car-free lanes and a dramatic Acropolis perched on a rocky headland give the area a traditional Greek-island feel, yet you’re still close to tavernas, bars and small shops.

The nearest sandy beach is around 800m away, with warm, sheltered waters ideal for a swim before breakfast or a late-afternoon dip. Lindos resort centre is about 1km, where you can wander the cobbled alleys, dine on rooftop terraces and boat-hop between coves. This isn’t a hardcore party spot – nightlife is more about atmospheric bars, live music and the occasional late-night club, with noise kept in check after 11pm.

  • Approx. transfer time from airport 1 hour 50 minutes

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


The focal point of Lindos Sun is its attractive outdoor freshwater pool, framed by low-rise buildings and sunbathing terraces. Sunbeds and parasols are dotted around the deck, and there’s a calm, grown-up vibe most of the day.

Pool towels are available with a refundable deposit, so you can travel lighter and still settle into your favourite lounger or terrace spot.

If you prefer to be by the sea, the nearest sandy beach is around 800m away. The water here is invitingly warm in summer, with shingle and sand underfoot and loungers and parasols available. Around Lindos you’ll also find mellow coves, snorkel-friendly rocks and St Paul’s Bay – a natural seawater “pool” almost completely enclosed by cliffs.

Spa, sports & wellness


Lindos Sun keeps things simple and peaceful, focusing on relaxation rather than full-scale resort entertainment. Facilities include:

• Small library corner in the reception area – ideal for swapping holiday reads
• Free Wi‑Fi throughout the hotel
• Concierge-style reception happy to help with restaurant reservations and local tips
• Currency exchange (local charges may apply)
• Luggage storage for late departures

Equipment such as a kettle, bottle warmer and wheelchair can be provided on request (subject to availability; local charges may apply). There is no organised day or evening entertainment programme, which helps maintain the tranquil, couples-friendly feel.

Activities


At Lindos Sun, the focus is on slow travel and simple pleasures rather than big organised activities. Typical ways to spend your days include:

• Relaxing by the freshwater pool with a book from the small library
• Strolling down to the nearby sandy beach for swimming and snorkelling
• Exploring Lindos’ whitewashed lanes and historic Acropolis
• Joining boat trips to St Paul’s Bay or along the coastline (from Lindos harbour)

Activity offerings and excursions can be arranged locally; ask reception for up-to-date options and timings.

Food & drink

For a hotel of this size, Lindos Sun punches well above its weight when it comes to dining, with three characterful venues plus a stylish cocktail bar.

Mesogeios – Buffet Restaurant
Start the day with a generous buffet spread at Mesogeios, offering international, Greek and local favourites for breakfast alongside show-cooking stations. Expect fresh fruit, pastries, eggs your way and regional touches like Greek yoghurt and local honey. Highchairs are available.

Elia – Poolside À La Carte
Elia serves à la carte lunches, snacks and light bites by the pool, with a menu spanning international classics, British comfort dishes and Greek specialities. Show cooking and an open, airy setting make it a relaxed spot for long lunches or late-afternoon sharing plates.

Dinner Restaurant – Rooftop À La Carte
Come evening, the rooftop dinner restaurant brings a more romantic tone. With elevated views and a creative menu that reworks international and Greek flavours, it’s ideal for a special night in rather than heading into town.

Thalassa Cocktail Bar
On the terrace you’ll find Thalassa, an adults-only cocktail bar (from 18:00–02:00) serving local, international and premium drinks. It’s the place for pre-dinner aperitifs or nightcaps under the stars.

A smart dress code may apply for dinner and restaurant opening times, reservation requirements and any supplements can vary by season and board basis; always check the latest details in resort.
