Rhodes - anyone been?

[SmellySkidMarks]

Looking for a cheap and cheerful holiday in the sun and found an all inclusive near a waterpark - sounds ideal.

Any insight?

I've been twice, loved it both times, although the 2nd time my family and I had to move (I was 10) as we had a lot of noise problems within the apartment block and went the first 2 days of 10 with very broken sleep.

Both times we stayed in Falariki (however you spell it) and then were moved to Pefos, I think.

Pefkos is fab for families, not too in your face, lovely beach, good cafes and restaurants. Quite a variety of accommodation from self-catering apts to hotels. Can get a taxi to Lindos cheaply.

We passed through Faliraki on the coach and it looked awful and it had a bad reputation with all the 18-30 holidaymakers, I hope it's improved. (Admittedly this was 2004 when we went.)

Pefkos is lovely we stayed there and Lindos is beautiful.

I would avoid Falaraki unless you want - as PP said 18-30 type holiday - when we drove through last year it looked awful!

rhodes is lovely, but agree avoid falaraki unless you are a drunken teenager. water park is there.

If you wanted, you could probably get on a daytrip to a water park while staying somewhere nice!
