We stayed at this hotel with an 8 year old child. The child is delighted!
We were in Greece for the first time.
Arrived in Rhodes late in the evening around 17-00. From the airport to Electra Palace it takes about 15 minutes. We were settled very quickly. Two Russian-speaking girls work at the reception, they are always ready to help you.
Planes land directly above the hotel. But since the windows in the rooms are soundproofed, nothing could be heard. Maybe it bothered someone, but it was even interesting for us to watch the planes while lying on the beach.
Electra Palace is located near the town of Rhodes, 7 km and 2 km from the town of Ialyssos. Not far from the hotel, a bus runs along the highway, by which you can get to Rhodes.

The area is small, but very well thought out and well maintained. The lobby bar has soft large sofas and tables, pleasant relaxing music from morning to evening. The view of the sea is stunning, very beautiful greenery on the territory and well-groomed bushes adorn the view! Weed is everywhere!
The Aegean Sea is breathtakingly beautiful! It was very pleasant to lie on the beach and admire its extraordinary turquoise. In addition, the rocky shores of Turkey were clearly visible opposite. The view is just amazing!!!
The beach is literally 2 steps away from the hotel, it is small but always clean.
There are always enough sun loungers and umbrellas. You can lie directly on the beach, or you can lie on the green lawns near the beach. The pool is similar.
There is a gym and an indoor heated pool and jacuzzi. The little one was delighted.
We lived on the 4th floor, right in the middle, with a beautiful view of the pool, the village of Ialyssos and the mountains.
The room is large, clean and cleaned regularly. Also in the room was an electric kettle with cups and a tray with tea bags, coffee and portioned cream. All this was replenished as it was spent. The minibar is filled once upon arrival. Safe in the room is free, with an electronic code.
In the bathroom, liquid soap in dispensers, shampoo, gel, body lotion (all French), hair dryer. We did not use air conditioning.
The food is wonderful! Everything is very tasty and satisfying. I really liked the atmosphere in the restaurant - the waiters immediately clean the vacant table, re-lay the tablecloth and serve. For breakfast, you can eat an omelette or pancakes (which the chef will fry in front of you), scrambled eggs, yogurt, cereal, potatoes, bacon, be sure to Feta and cottage cheese. There are always several types of juices for breakfast. For lunch - several meat and poultry dishes, vegetable stews, delicious rice and other side dishes, various salads and chopped vegetables, etc. etc.

For dinner, there are always meat and fish, kebabs and grilled meat. Often there were shrimp, mussels, octopus and other seafood. Soup is also served for dinner, but we did not try it. The hotel has a huge selection of delicious pastries, desserts, cakes. There were also fruits - apples, pears, oranges, grapefruits, plums and kiwis. For lunch and dinner, there are always 4 types of ice cream, you have to collect it yourself.
Tea and coffee in the main restaurant for breakfast only. A little unusual. But tea, coffee and juices are always available in bars at any time.
Because the hotel works only on an all-inclusive system, then white and red wine in unlimited quantities everywhere, both in bars and in a restaurant in barrels, similarly beer. You can pour yourself. Any drinks in any quantity at any time of the day are available in the bars.
There are 2 a la carte restaurants - Italian and Chinese. We visited both, liked the Chinese one better, both the atmosphere and the food.
Most vacationers are Germans, there were also quite a few Russians, there are also Italians, Belgians, British, etc. The crowd is decent.
The hotel has animation for both adults and children, but we did not participate in it.
In general, the holiday turned out great. The hotel is just wonderful!
