BUY A FAN!! BUY A FAN!!
LINDOS IS VERY, VERY HOT!
I START WITH THIS BECAUSE IT IS THE BEST ADVICE I CAN GIVE U TO MAKE SURE YOUR HOLIDAY GOES WELL!
I WENT TO LINDOS LAST YEAR (FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVING READ MY OTHER STUFF...CAN U SEE A PATTERN FORMING HERE?! I LUV GREECE!) AND ON ARRIVAL AT MIDNIGHT IT WAS STILL 80 DEGREES!! (ITS ABOUT 45 MINUTES FROM RHODES AIRPORT BY THE WAY)
LINDOS IS A TINY PICTURESQUE TOWN AT THE FAR END OF RHODES AND ITS QUIRK IS THAT THE STREETS ARE SO NARROW THAT ALL CARS AND COACHES HAVE TO STOP AT THE TOP OF THE HILL AT THE ENTRANCE TO LINDOS AND THE ONLY VEHICLES ALLOWED IN ARE TINY MOTORCYCLES THAT ARE DRIVEN BY MAD GREEK MEN TAKING SUTICASES TO AND FROM APARTMENTS ETC!
MOST OF THE APARTMENTS ARE VERY BASIC (NORMAL IN GREECE) AND MINE WAS LIKE A MINI OVEN, IT WAS HOTTER INSIDE THAN OUT. (SEE WHY I MENTIONED THE FANS?!)BUT THE TOWN ITSELF MORE THAN MAKES UP FOR IT. THE STREETS ARE TINY AND MOST OF THE HOUSES ARE ORIGINAL GREEK PEOPLES HOMES WHO MOVE OUT FOR THE SUMMER WHEN US MAD BRITS APPEAR.
THERE ARE TWO BEACHES ONE SMALL AND ONE LARGER BOTH OF WHICH ARE GORGEOUS BUT U HAVE TO PAY FOR THE SUNLOUNGERS.
THERE ARE PLENTY OF SUPERMARKETS TO STOCK UP IN AND LOADS OF TOURISTY (BUT NOT TACKY) TYPE SHOPS HIDDEN AWAY.
BUT..........................
THE VERY BEST BIT IS THE RESTAURANTS! OH! THEY ARE FAB! NEARLY ALL OF THEM HAVE ROOFTOP GARDENS WHERE U CAN EAT AND OVERLOOK LINDOS'S WHITEWASHED HOUSES AND BEACHES. FOR THE ROMANTIC OF U OUT THERE.....THERE'S NOTHING LIKE IT!! MEN!.....EARN BROWNIE POINTS WITH YOUR WOMAN....TRUST ME...IT'LL WORK!!
THE FOOD ISN'T EXPENSIVE AND THE SERVICE USUALLY EXCELLENT.
ALL IN ALL LINDOS IS FAB, NOT A GREAT DEAL OF NITELIFE,MORE A COUPLSEY RESORT BUT THERE ARE SOME GOOD BARS AND BECUASE EVERYONE CRAMS IN THE ATMOSPHERE IS ACE!!
GO......YOU'LL LOVE IT!
