You can’t help but get swept up in the magic of the Greek summertime on holidays to Lardos. With its unspoiled beach and family-friendly hotels, this small resort village is one of the most attractive on Rhodes’ southeastern coast.
Low-key Lardos seriously delivers on summer holiday vibes, backing a sandy, Blue-Flag beach with a traditional Greek village centre just inland. Most of the hotels and resorts are an approachable size – and only steps from the sea. There are watersports on offer for big kids and little kids alike, plus a handful of traditional tavernas. You can even reach many of Rhodes’ most interesting ancient sites within half an hour’s drive.
Hiking from Lardos
You can tackle several hiking routes straight from your hotel on Lardos holidays, and many more across the island. One of the most appealing is the easy 3km route to Lardos castle, the ruins of a 12th-century Byzantine fortress built by the Knights of the Order of St. John.
