Rhodes is no stranger to mass tourism. One of the first islands to open its doors to sun-seeking travellers in the 1970s, this idyllic island is flooded with visitors seeking sun, sea and sand throughout the year. Thankfully, there are hundreds of villa and house rentals to keep up with demand. From cheap and cheerful villas to sprawling oceanfront houses, there’s something for every taste and budget. We’ve rounded up three of the best places to find houses and villa rentals in Rhodes, Greece based on a range of properties, value for money, customer reviews, booking policies and ease of booking.
Plum Guide
Plum Guide is an excellent option for more discerning travellers since it only lists the best properties on the market on its website. Each home undergoes a multi-vetting process and regular reviews to keep its spot. The website currently offers more than 180 houses and villas homes sprinkled across the north and west of the island, many in some of Rhodes’ most sought-after locations. Properties range from teeny-tiny cottages to palatial villas. The website is easy to navigate, with handy filters for the number of guests, amenities, facilities and location. If you’re struggling to find the perfect pad, the concierge team will be happy to help with your search too.
Booking.com
Booking.com offers a wide range of excellent value houses and villa rentals across the island. If you have an existing account with Booking.com, you’ll be able to get the best rates and may even bag an extra discount with ‘Genius’ prices too. There are currently over 350 properties available across the island, though you’ll need to use the filter to whittle this down to villas and houses. You can also filter by budget, city, bed preference and amenities. Handily, you can sort by budget and rating too. Each property is reviewed out of ten by previous guests on criteria including staff, facilities, comfort, cleanliness, value for money and location for extra peace of mind.
Villa Plus
Founded in 1986, Villa Plus now has over 1,200 villas in 22 destinations across Europe, including Rhodes. There are currently 60 villas to choose from, each hand-picked by the team. Unlike most platforms, you can also find villas and houses outside of the holiday hotspots like Rhodes Town, Pefkos, and Lindos. You can filter villas by budget, bedrooms, location and features such as tennis courts and easy access to the beach. A bi-lingual villa co-ordinator is available seven days a week via phone, text, email or WhatsApp throughout your stay too. All holidays are protected by ABTA.
