Afandou Blu

Imazing small family hotel, where we have already stayed before. Away from the noise town(s), really a quiet place for relax. The staff incl. the owner are very freindley, helpful, Eva speaks very well english, no problem to ask & talk to her. The rooms are OK size, no problem with water, also the aircondition is available in each of the rooms (independent settings) - perfect during hot days :-) Swimming pool cleaned every day - always clean, no problem to get the sunbeds. The two barmans - perfect. By the bar there is a roof, good place for seatting, talking, drinking....... Food was delicious. Always fish (yami), always pasta, every meal something different then before, always some greek food. Hotel is small, that is why not so many guests are there, the various of food is not so many kind, however always there were 5 - 6 meals, salad bar and friuts & cakes. It means nothing was missing. From the hotel is no so far to get to the beach. We always went by rent a car - 2-3 min away to the beach where was nobody, or to Tsambika (sand beach). Definitely we can recommend the hotel Afandou Blue.

I wanted to come hone after 4 days. We sat by the pool most days, as this place is very remote, unless you like jetting around in a taxi. There are toilets on site, but few and far between. The pool area has no toilets and we noticed the bar staff using the bushes behind the bar to relieve themselves. We had to keep going back to our room. FOOD......Don't even go there, unless you like spaghetti bolognese every night served cold.

We came to this hotel as the original hotel we were booked to stay at was not up to our expectations or standards and we couldn't stay there more than one night, so we found this one just by driving around the area and they very kindly were able to accommodate us at very short notice. What can I say about this hotel? Clean, comfortable, large rooms. Pool area kept very clean at all times. Staff so helpful and friendly. Food was tasty and varied. The location was so peaceful and the beach at the end of the drive was so clean with lovely clear water. We had a lovely time here and would definitely recommend this to others looking for somewhere relaxed and friendly.

A BIG THANK YOU to the family owner and staff of this hotel who welcomed us as best they could. We did not test the rooms, the hotel was full, but having had to leave the area of Lindos because of the gigantic fire, we were greeted in the middle of the night in this hotel with great benevolence while we are not their guests. A great generosity that we wanted to thank. From what we saw, the hotel is nice with a very nice pool, 2 minutes from the beach.

Price: fair for what you are getting Rooms: clean, spacious. We had a few problems with batteries for AC and the shower could only go etiher super hot or super cold but overall quite good Pool: very nicely kept , but there were a lot of wasps around it Food: one of the not so great things, in some days it was quite good and there is a variety of things that you can eat however the food was reused a lot and for multiple days, there was no seasoning, we got staled potatoes one day. Desserts were good and it was nice that you always had watermellon and other fruits to take Bar & drinks: acceptable however most of the dispensers were very old and you could taste that in the not so requested drinks, the wine was very bad (probably made out of powder). Water, beer and coffee was okay though It’s not a hotel for young people though, mostly for families. Not a lot to do during the night and the location of it it’s far away from other places. However they have a good deal with a car renting service which I would 100% recommend. (No need to give a guarantee)

Booked this for a short trip with my friend for a few days and it was a lovely hotel. Only downside is the walk to bus stop is about 25 mins (but the bus has AC and the walk is atleast a bit scenic). Great food, plenty of choice, really amazing staff very helpful and welcoming. Only a few minutes walk to the beach which is ideal. Couldn’t fault the stay. Will definitely look at coming back next year!

Booked this place on a all inclusive for 2 nights, We booked a family room which was all that was available on *********** at the time the room exceeded our expectations we had 2 large bedrooms both with double / king size beds which where super comfortable. The rooms where nicely furnished, bathroom good, large balcony with nice table and chairs, I asked reception for a kettle so we could make a hot drink in our room they provided straight away. Very impressed with the food at meal times, there was a good selection and no shortage. The bar area is not very big so sometimes struggled for a table at night time. Hired moped directly at the hotel which was nice and easy. The beach is a few minutes walk from the hotel. All staff very helpful and friendly. there is a large seating area near reception where you sit and relax after your meal.

We just got home from our vacation and we loved it! Our room was pretty, cleaned every day. The only thing that might be done better is the shower but it didn't matter to us. The staff was good, so was the hotel and the pool area. Food and drinks were great. I only missed fruit, there was just orange and nothing else. The beach was about 3-5 minutes walk away. The hotel does not have its own deck chairs and parasols, therefore if you want them you have to pay 10 euros per day. The beach was calm a the sea was clean. There is not much to see in the area, so if you want to explore some other places on Rhodes you better borrow a car. We didn't have it and it was also ok If you are looking for a calm vacation, we can absolutely recommend it.

Non saprei da dove iniziare perche' d'impatto l'hotel non e' cosi' terribile, e' una piccola struttura apparentemente tenuta bene (dall'esterno) in mezzo al nulla e vicino al mare, zona piscina carina ma il bar un pochino triste. Allora partiamo dall'inizio, arrivati in albergo ci accoglie una ragazzina un pochino impacciata che viene subito affiancata dal titolare (suppongo) che ci chiede i documenti e ci liquida in tre secondi dicendo che poi ce li avrebbe restituiti in seguito, ci consegna le chiavi della stanza e via...fin qui bene perche' e' stato veloce e senza intoppi, arrivati alla porta della stanza ci aspetta una serratura un po' "usurata" (allego foto per farsi un idea) la stanza era abbastanza spaziosa e pulita, il bagno (tasto dolente) piccolino e moooolto usurato (vedi foto) rubinetto del lavabo che spruzzava acqua da tutti i lati, doccetta super incrostata e vecchia. La "pulizia" della camera avveniva tutti i giorni (diciamo che facevano solo il letto) ma il cambio asciugamani un giorno si e uno no, il bagno credo che neanche lo guardino. Passiamo al cibo, avevamo la formula all inclusive ma ne abbiamo usufruito poco, colazione diciamo che c'era poco e niente (di dolce intendo) ci siamo comprati un barattolo di marmellata perche' loro ti propongono solo una marmellata di arance amarissima, pranzo non lo abbiamo mai fatto quindi non possiamo dire nulla, cena invece siamo stati li per tre sere e la pancia ce la siamo riempita ma da buoni italiani secondo me siamo abituati bene e quindi non possiamo pretendere nulla, gli altri ospiti (prevalentemente tedeschi e inglesi) erano entusiasti dai piatti che vedevo quindi credo sia un problema nostro di adattamento. Peccato potrebbe avere buone potenzialità vista la zona super tranquilla. Pensateci bene prima di prenotare la nostra agenzia ha toppato alla grande!!
