Reviews
The interiors of the rooms is a bit outdated and shows signs of wear. Still, rooms are very comfortable and very clean, so we enjoyed staying in ours.
Overall, highly recommend.
I didn’t love the area around as much but we did love the boat trips from the beach directly in front of the hotel.
We came to Rhodes for a vacation, and were welcomed with open arms. The staff answered all our questions and were kind and helpful.
After two days, the war between Israel and Iran broke out, and we were stuck with no way to return home. Apollo Beach were very understanding, tried to help us stay a few more days, and when there were no more available rooms, they offered us a small discount and arranged for us to move to Apollo Blue, the sister hotel across the street, which is considered a higher standard. There too, we were received with care and warmth, even though we didn’t know how long we’d be staying — we extended day by day.
So I just wanted to say a big thank you — these hotels are simply 10/10, both in the quality of the facilities and the kindness of the staff.
