My partner and I had a lovely stay at Lindos Breeze Hotel. Firstly, the staff (10/10) were all very kind, attentive, and easy to find when needed, in particular, Aris, the Breeze manager, who made us feel welcome and valued.
Rooms (8/10)
The rooms are modern, kept clean and have AC. On a couple of evenings, the showers did not heat up beyond lukewarm, and the beds were just fine in terms of comfort, but nothing exceptional. Wine, fruit on arrival, and daily bottled water (free at reception) were nice touches.
Location & Getting Around (7/10)
Within the resort complex itself, the Breeze hotel is very well-located. Only a short walk to the main buffet and the beach. The pool at the Breeze also gets a good amount of sun throughout the day.
For the location of the hotel within Rhodes, I’ve given a 4 out of 5: expect at least a 25–30 minute bus journey into Lindos (€3 each way) and at least a 90-minute bus journey into Rhodes Town (€7.50 each way).
Within walking distance, there isn’t an easily accessible "strip" of bars, shops, or restaurants. We didn’t find this to be a problem given the hotel’s all-inclusive buffet and various à la carte options, but it’s something to consider if your goal is to explore Rhodes off-site rather than primarily relax.
Food & Drink (8 out of 10)
We enjoyed all the various bars across the resort, including the Breeze bar, which served good drinks. We were grateful to the lovely bartender at the Breeze bar, who kindly came around the pool often to take drink orders throughout the afternoon.
As for food, the main buffet restaurant offers a good variety of enjoyable options. I wouldn’t expect to be blown away by the quality, as with most all-inclusive hotels serving as many guests as the Imperial/Breeze do, but I couldn’t pick out any specific issues, and service was quick and friendly throughout.
Unfortunately, a disappointment of the holiday was our experience at the STK Steak à la carte restaurant. While the staff were friendly, the food was below average - it arrived cold, didn't quite match the menu descriptions - and fell short of expectations given other positive reviews.
However, the crepe/ice cream and gyros bars were highlights. The chicken and beach burger bars offered quick, decent snacks.
Amenities & Facilities (8/10)
Very few complaints regarding other amenities. The activity pool is good fun, with the food bar serving nice gyros, pizza, and pasta. The beach is easily accessible (sand-and-pebble) with a conveniently located water sports company offering fair prices on a range of activities. It was fairly busy when we stayed, but we never had an issue finding sunbeds around any of the pools or beach (though stayed in mid-to-late October).
The gym looks fairly basic and cannot be accessed by walk-ins. You have to book in advance, which is slightly more inconvenient for Breeze guests: Imperial guests can book via an app, whereas Breeze guests must book at reception at least a day in advance. It wasn't a dealbreaker, just enough of a hassle that we didn't bother using it. The sports courts looked to be in good condition; tennis was free (using a similar booking system), while paddle tennis incurs an extra fee.
Entertainment (9/10)
Lastly, there was a good range of entertainment available. The friendly animation team hosted sports and activities throughout the day around the activity pool and sports pitches, and there were great live musicians playing outside the main bar in the evenings.
Overall (8-9/10)
We were lucky with the weather and had a very enjoyable week. None of the minor weaknesses were related to the staff, who were all kind and helpful. A few small points, as mentioned, brought the score down slightly. Perhaps these are things I wouldn’t expect at a "five-star" property, but there was certainly nothing major enough to ruin the stay or warrant serious complaint. Recommended!
