Calypso Beach

Rating: 10/10 My wife and I embarked on our honeymoon journey to Calypso Beach Hotel in Rhodes from July 26th to August 5th, 2023, and what a journey it turned out to be! Initially seeking solace after an unexpected departure from another hotel, we stumbled upon this hidden gem that transformed our trip into an enchanting adventure. The Calypso Beach Hotel immediately stole our hearts with its picturesque coastal location. The azure waters and golden sands provided the perfect backdrop for a romantic getaway. However, it was the unparalleled warmth and dedication of the hotel staff that truly set our experience apart. The staff became more than just hosts; they became friends on our honeymoon journey. The bar team, including Artan, Antonis, Doria, Stefanos, and George, created cocktails that were both delightful to the palate and a testament to their craftsmanship. Their genuine interest in making our evenings special added an extra layer of charm to our stay. Elvira's presence at the Crepe Stand was a sweet delight. Her warm smile and delectable crepes were the perfect treat for our days by the beach. It's these personalized touches that make Calypso Beach Hotel stand out. Nikos and Tsampikos, members of the restaurant staff, took our dining experiences to new heights. Their attention to detail and dedication to making every meal memorable left us in awe. Our accommodations were nothing short of luxurious. The double room we stayed in was elegantly designed and offered breathtaking views of the coastline. The attention to cleanliness was impeccable, creating an environment that was both inviting and comforting. Speaking of amenities, Calypso Beach Hotel exceeded our expectations. The Crepe Stand, the restaurant, and the bar facilities were all top-notch, adding to the overall value of our stay. What truly wowed us was the genuine care and hospitality we received. The combination of these elements made our honeymoon unforgettable.

Overall, the experience was delightful—exactly what you'd expect from an all-inclusive hotel. It had everything you needed for a fantastic holiday. While the pool was too cold for swimming, the sea was perfect. The lovely sandy beach with beach chairs was a highlight. It's hard to list everything that was great because the hotel truly had it all. Its proximity to other villages and Rhodes itself was convenient. Lunch and dinner were outstanding, with a different menu every day. I especially enjoyed the fish options, and my kids loved the unlimited ice cream and excellent crepes. Good luck staying fit and leaving with the same weight you checked in with! The entertainment program was interesting, and I appreciated the presence of mostly German tourists.

We had nice and relaxing 8 nights holiday at Calypso Beach after staying four nights at Capypso Palace. We had a deluxe seaview room that are all fully renovated and get comfortable for two adults and two teenage young men. At least on third floor these rooms were located on the right side if you look at the hotel from the beach. Minibar was filled every day with water, sodas, juice, beer and wine. Lobby area was renovated recently, and had nice bar, car rental, minimarket hairdresser/barber shop and a la carte restaurant where we didn’t visit. From the pool area you can find lots of sun beds, bar, crepes kiosk, separate kids pool with couple of small slides and lunch restaurant from where you can get refreshments and snacks all the day. Meals at the buffe restaurant were good, especially breakfast, but lunch and dinner were a bit repetitive even though there was always something new and different. They had theme dinner 3-4 times a week. Dessert table was always really delicious. Animation team arrange different activities (beach volley, boccia, water aerobics, water polo, football etc.) around the day and I highly recommend taking part of these activities. Evening shows were also very popular. I’m feeling sorry for not singing karaoke. :) We prefered to stay at the beach which was really clean, shallow and had also lots of sunbeds. All the employees were very helpful and friendly. You can sometimes read they prefer serving germans over other nationalities but that’s not true! I believe we where the only Finns there and got always perfect service. Most of the customers were from Germany but I made new friends with many other nationalities all very nice and friendly.

We stayed just for three nights. The Service by the staff was exceptional. The rooms & the other hotel facilities were clean. The Beach & location was ideal for a family. There was light entertainment, every evening which was pleasant. The hotel was pretty full, but didn't feel crowded or noisy.

The food and choice of drinks were really great, branded spirits a bonus. Always a good choice for food. Loved the beach being close. The staff were mostly really friendly and helpful. The layout was good and the entertainment was good too.
