Lindos Pines Resort Hotel

These comments are from our holiday at Lindon Pines in September 2000. Nothing seems to have changed much!
Well, Basil and Sybil are alive and well and running this hotel but in reserve order.
Basil is in the form of Barbara who hypes up Lindos Pines to be the best hotel in Pefkos and provides to best and cheapest food and drink in town. Don’t believe a word of it. Although the drinks may be the cheapest, this is the first place outside the UK I have seen spirits being measured before being poured into a glass; and they are by no means generous measures. When we ate there, which was not very often, the food was quite good but not well presented. The hotel itself has so much potential but has become somewhat rundown and if the right sort of money was spent in the right places, it would be an excellent place for a holiday. We had no complaints about our room. It was kept clean although the weather was constantly very hot and the fan we hired did not help a great deal. In this spot on Rhodes, the rooms really need air conditioning. The pool was not cleaned of debris often enough and the poolside was never cleaned at all. It was constantly dirty with dog ends and other litter left for days. The area around the outside restaurant is like a small village square and again has a lot of potential. However, this too was not kept as clean as it should have been and the owners' collie dog was often seen asleep on the floor of the kitchen area. All around the hotel is a lot of vegetation, but it is not maintained so has become in many places unsightly. It also attracts the usual insects particularly mosquitoes which my wife found out to her great cost. The reps will tell you to walk to the main part of Pefkos, you turn right out of the hotel, up the hill and turn left and walk five minutes along the road. - Don’t! - Turn left out of the hotel and the narrow road will take you to Pefkos with a less incline. This road will also take you past two other hotels where you can use the much cleaner pools and sample the excellent food. We would in the future, return to Pefkos However, it would not be to Lindos .
