7 days · all ages · beach, resort, culture

Rhodes has the highest concentration of family all-inclusive hotels in Greece, on the sheltered east coast, and one of the best-preserved medieval walled cities in Europe twenty minutes up the road. That combination makes it the resort week that still has something to see, without needing a car.
Families who want to explore. Rhodes rewards a car if you intend to reach the southern beaches, and this route does not use one.
