Lindos Royal Resort

Good value for money

Pros: All inclusive food and drinks options were great and lots of different pool and activity options for a range of people. Close in a taxi to Lindos town (about 12-15 euro for a taxi). Helpful staff and clean.

Cons: The first ‘garden view’ room we were placed in was opposite a building and the children’s water slides, so not a garden view and the sunbeds were in the shade all day. However, staff rectified this as soon as they could and moved us to an actual garden view with sunbeds in the sun. Just note this when you book this room as you could be stuck in busy season. Also would agree with other reviews that it isn’t your traditional 5* (but I did enjoy my stay and would return!)

Pros: room overlooking the sea. the friendly staff. and the buffet food and drink was very good for an all inclusive.

Cons: Just a little frayed in some edges round the gardens etc. also no coffee/tea machine in the room

Relaxing trip with good beach access - would recommend a swim up room.

Pros: The location of the hotel is great - having such easy access to the beach is brilliant. The food was on the whole really good too. If you can have a room with the direct pool access/swim up, then we would highly recommend. You then always have a comfortable place to relax with quiet private pool access. I was 6 months pregnant for our trip and it was a great, comfortable and lots of lovely relaxing to be done!

Cons: The hotel itself is getting a little tired, but this doesn’t really matter when the weather is glorious and you’re outside all the time! The only other thing is the music - for periods of the day there is very loud music playing for things like aqua gym classes, and the playlist is the same every day which gets a bit irritating. In the evenings there is generally some entertainment which is great if you enjoy that, but if not it’s quite loud and would be hard to go to sleep before 11pm. Overall this didn’t bother us much and we still had an excellent holiday, but if travelling with kids you might want to request a room not facing the main area.

Worth what we paid and we did enjoy our week

Pros: Beautiful location. Lovely way to wake up with the sea outside We had a sea view family room and on the whole it was good.

Cons: Entertainment for kids could have been more. Some quick wins would help make it feel more luxury, such as more than 1 pillow and ice creams for the kids available all day at pool bar

Lovely stay and considering returning.

Pros: Absolutely amazing location, the bay is gorgeous with breath taking views. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Lots of sun beds never a problem sitting at any of the pools. Kids loved the slides. Food a good quality. Reception staff very friendly and super helpful.

Cons: Bar area near evening entertainment is rather smelly.

Overall we enjoyed our vacation very much

Pros: We had a sea view room on the 6000 part. The view was absolutely amazing. The staff was very friendly. Tommy rhe public relations manager was also very helpful and professional. The food was delicious and fresh.

Cons: There is an overall issue with the A/C, and you have to pay 25eur for the safe in the room, which is greedy.

Well equipped in a lovely location with lots of nice food. Polite staff clean rooms great music in the day and quick ser

Pros: Food selection was great every day breakfast lunch and dinner. Lots of different fresh salad and different meat including sword fish, mussels and steak. The premium restaurant wasn’t as good for food as the buffet and had to book and pay for drinks. Go once but only for the view to tick it off. Loads of sun beds and no panic. Also on the beach too for no extra cost. Comfy solid bed and pillows which I rarely praise. Great gym and also reasonably priced massage at the SPA. Quick bar service and good variety for an all inclusive. Staff all friendly and polite. Great boat trip around the caves and taxi to Lindos old town booked easily through reception are a must do. Taxi booked via booking.com was brilliant in both directions with WhatsApp updates and emails to reassure you.

Cons: Some days a bit more of a clean around the pool would have been nice, sticky floors. Some areas were modern and smart but lots of tatty areas needing a bit of investment. Seemed to be in progress on the higher value cliff front. Bit of drainage management on the poolside would help. Witnessed a few slips and stacks which could be avoided with some basic additions at no fault of the punished 🤣. Shows were nothing like the main website (two in a week) but the trio act with a lady and two chaps were amazing 70’s theme. The main stage up the hill is for Italians only.

A wonderful family holiday, in a nice hotel, beautiful setting but not 5*

Pros: We have just returned from a family holiday - 6 adults and 3 children. It was a beautiful location with stunning views. The resort wasn’t too crowded, easy to get sun loungers for us all. Food was good, drinks were good. The hotel staff were lovely and adored our children (my two daughters and my nephew, ages 3,5 and 6). It was fun and safe and we all had a great time! Entertainment in the evening was really fun - it’s a small location, there is amphitheater but nothing seems to go on there. We really did have such a fun filled week but the hotel needs work.

Cons: But! This is my no means a 5* hotel. If you are looking for luxury this is not the hotel. The reception area was grand, but our room was shabby, bits of paint chipping off, cracked tiles around, shower was ok at best. We paid a lot for a family room but no access to balcony without going through the children’s room so that didn’t work of an evening. The slides were fun for our kids but older kids might be disappointed at 3 were closed. The restaurant situation was also very poor. It advertises 3x themed restaurants but that’s not the case, it’s all in one area overlooking the sea (beautiful) but in a week stay they said there was no availability at all! The kids club area is the most tired of it all. The girls who ran it were amazing! Literally the kindness and sweetest girls who even came and played cards with us - but the facilities did not live up to the glossy website.

Nice but not 5 star hotel in a remote location

Pros: The staff is very helpful and kind, no doubt on that. The thematical restaurants are nice and serves decent food, but almost impossible to reserve for group above 6 - do it as soon as you arrive, on the spot at the check-in otherwise will not get in unless you are a couple. The pools are nice, but quite small, and it's good to have dedicated pool for adults only. The furnishment of the room is old fashion and lacks some basic stuff, like drying rack. They can come and clean on demand which is also convenient.

Cons: The location is remote, you cannot really go out at the evenings / without car or taxi. The gym is small and 2 out of the 6 machines were out of order during our stay. The food and drinks are average/below average, the breakfast is clearly repetitive and boring.

Really nice hotel, lovely setting

Pros: Lovely hotel, great pools and views from the hotel. Very well run and efficient, helpful staff especially Valeria on Reception who was amazing and always pleasant and patient. Other exceptional staff were the cleaners and the bar staff particularly in the dining room who were really friendly.

Cons: The rooms weren’t really 5 star but still big and ok. You had to get taxis to Lindos etc (despite the hotel name which indicated it would be closer) and the hotel added 4 euros to every booking.
