Our holiday started on 15/10/2024 at the wonderful Lydia Maris Resort & Spa in Kolymbia on the sunny island of Rhodes. we felt warmth, coziness and hospitality as soon as we entered the hotel, a great place for both couples and families with children. I will start with the weather, because it is one of the important things for a perfect holiday. mornings in October are a bit chilly 16°-17° to 18° a good refreshing start, during the day temperatures are around 25°-26° to 27°, for a perfect relaxation around the pool, with a coffee or a cocktail of your choice. we were extremely impressed by the cleanliness and maintenance everywhere in the hotel, the friendly, lovely and responsive ladies at the reception, all the staff at the restaurant, the guys at the pool bar, the ladies (maids) who took care of the cleanliness of our room to make us feel comfortable as we feel at home, animation team Evelina, Gustavo and Alex, taking care of the good mood of tourists every single day with water gym, table tennis, darts, mini disco, karaoke, music quizzes, the wonderful ladies with magic hands from the spa - we can say a big thank you, because you are all tireless, smiling and sunny people, and you make people happy. we were also very pleased with the food in the main restaurant which was very fresh and varied every day, also the pleasure of enjoying Greek gyros and oven baked pizza if you feel hungry during the day. a few steps from the pool there is a neat little shop where you can find necessary things for your holiday (if you accidentally forgot something), refreshments, ice cream, as well as souvenirs and gifts. we highly recommend Lydia Maris Resort& Spa, it is worth it to spend an unforgettable holiday in this peaceful place. thank you from the bottom of our hearts and see you again.

The hotel was nice ,we all had a lovely holiday. The animation team were amazing. Alex, Gustavo and Evelina are so funny and really entertained us throughout the week. The evening entertainment they put on was brilliant and we all loved every minute. My daughter loved it that much she wants us to rebook.

Except for the very nice and helpful staff I cannot recommend staying in this hotel.
The rooms are very outdated, I wouldn't say dirty as the staff is shaping them up every day but it's definitely not modern neither comfy.
Yes, the pool is pretty but the public one can be so crowded that if you decide to stay here, definitely opt for the rooms with private access to the pools.
I am sorry, but the food is not good at all, a lot of variety but rarely there is something that is quite okay to eat. You can sense that all the meals are somewhat cooked and seasoned the same way, lot of processed and frozen food. The choice of veggies or fruit is super sad. Every day there were just watermelons and dry oranges, pineapples,.. we were missing any type of berries, even grapes would be great as they don't need much maintenance.
The activites? The lonely kid playground that was directly under the sun so the kids would probably burn their poor butts off. Very old. And next to it, some game machines that didn't even work, wondering for how long.
Enough sad, it definitely is not a 5* hotel. 3* at best - at least from what you expect. And I don't think we are being too hard to please.

What makes more special is staff who works there so friendly and helpful that you want to come back.

During my holiday last week at this hotel me and my family enjoyed it a lot, the staff are really respectful and the service is amazing as well as the food served is very good and well made. The activities are really fun to kids and adults both. They provide a pool gym, fun games and a show every night from 9-11 hosted by jack (Rahul) and his team which also hosts the activities. They are well mannered and made our holiday really fun. My daughter still misses the place and really wants to go back. If you would like to go to Rhodes the bus service is really good especially the fact how the bus stop is right opposite the hotel and drops you back at the same spot. Overall the hotel is a 5 star and we will for sure be back soon!
