Our time at Lindos Village Resort and Spa was overall a great experience. Upon arriving we were greeted with friendly staff and notified that we had been upgraded which was a wonderful start to the holiday. This gave us a room with a wonderful view which was great for early morning and late evening reading and relaxing. The breakfast selection was wonderful, a great mix of continental and cooked food, and they were even able to provide an early morning option to accommodate early morning excursions which is something we hadn’t come across before and was a welcome bonus. My partner is gluten free and the range of food gave him some good options to eat. They also provided a gluten free cake for him for his birthday which was a lovely touch. The staff are the star of the show at this hotel, they are always happy to help and invested in giving you the best experience. Maria from reception deserves a dedicated mention as she was personable, attentive and was able to answer any and all queries we had whilst helping book excursions for us. The hotel also uses a WhatsApp service for instant communication with the reception and this was a great feature with quick response times. The pool was great and the location perfect for a quiet and reserved holiday, away from the business of a city but near enough to a beach and Lindos by bus or taxi. There were a couple of drawbacks. The toilet in our room began to smell and it got worse throughout the holiday, but once reported it was remedied quickly. The finishing in the room were slightly messy, with sealants and paintwork lacking the polish expected from a five star hotel. The design could also use a bit of work, for example, there was a large mirror on the wall but it was blocked by a tv which made the room feel cramped and reduced the space in the room. The toilet has a peculiar design where the shower overflows on purpose as there is a main shower drain and a bathroom drain. When it overflows, the water essentially turns the whole bathroom into a wet room which becomes annoying when needing to use the toilet or brush teeth after a shower. The hotel is also undergoing some decorating and refurb which meant drilling, scraping and scouring noises were underway and loud by our room, this started around 7:30am for a few days which made lie ins difficult. However, the numerous positives far outweigh the negatives and we had a lovely stay and we would recommend this hotel.
