Unbelievable STAY Hotel Rhodes: Your Greek Island Paradise Awaits!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we are diving HEADFIRST into the… well… unbelievable (they used the word, not me, okay?) STAY Hotel Rhodes. And let me tell you, after sifting through ALL that info – and let’s be honest, some of it felt like wading through a particularly dense bowl of Greek alphabet soup – I'm ready to spill the beans. This isn't your sanitized, perfectly-filtered travel review. This is real talk. Prepare yourselves.
Accessibility - The First Hurdle (Can They Jump It?)
Alright, let's get the accessibility stuff out of the way. It’s kinda crucial, right? Unbelievable STAY says they have "facilities for disabled guests". Okay, good start. But… (and this is a BIG but) there isn't much specific detail. Wheelchair accessible? Not explicitly stated. So, if you need super specific info (like, ramp gradients, elevator dimensions, etc.), you're going to have to call and ask. Don't assume, people. Assume nothing. The lack of concrete info makes me a little nervous to recommend it blindly to those with mobility limitations. They do have an elevator, which is a HUGE plus, particularly in a multi-story building. So, on the surface, it looks promising, but do your research, people. Do your research.
Internet – Wi-Fi Warriors and LAN Losers
Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Woohoo! That's a win. And honestly, these days, it's almost a prerequisite. But, for the old-school techheads, they have Internet access – LAN. Remember hard-wiring? Anyone? Okay, I'm dating myself. But it's there. Wi-Fi is also available in the public areas, which is excellent.
Cleanliness and Safety – Is it Actually Safe?
Okay, in these times, this is the BIG ONE. They're going ham on the cleaning. Anti-viral cleaning products? Check. Daily disinfection in common areas? Check. Rooms sanitized between stays? Double check. Staff trained in safety protocol? Triple check. Hand sanitizer everywhere? Probably. They've got the hygiene certification, so they’re trying to do it right. All the boxes seem checked, and even offer an option to opt-out on sanitization! That’s nice, I like to see it when places are trying to be mindful.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking – Feed Me, Seymour!
This is where things get interesting. They've got a buffet, and a la carte restaurant. Asian breakfast AND Asian cuisine? Intriguing. I’m getting a little nostalgic about that Asian breakfast. They've also got a bar, a coffee shop, a snack bar, and… a poolside bar. Oh, the poolside bar. I mean, come on, what's a Greek island vacation without a poolside bar? You'd expect me to try all the drinks and report back, yeah? I'm on it. The pool should also provides a unique view to the location.
And the restaurants themselves? Supposedly, they're serving international cuisine, and have a vegetarian option. They even have an option for Breakfast In Room, and even a Breakfast Takeaway Service!
Services and Conveniences – The Perks and the Quirks
Okay, the "facilities for disabled guests" is listed here again, so it's like, they know it's important, but they're still not offering up a ton of detail. They've got a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage (essential!), and currency exchange (handy). They even have a concierge. A concierge! That's fancy. They have a gift shop, a terrace, and can offer food delivery. And oh, they have a shrine. I'm not sure what kind of shrine, or why, but hey, it’s a thing. And a convenience store. (Do they sell emergency swimsuits? Because, let’s be real, I always forget mine.) Also, there's daily housekeeping, so no pressure to make the bed.
They also offer a car park on-site, which is helpful.
For the Kids – Are the Little Ones Welcome?
Family/child friendly! Kids facilities! Babysitting service! Kids meal! Okay, Unbelievable STAY, I see you. They've got the kiddos covered. Good on ya.
Available in All Rooms – The Nitty-Gritty
Air conditioning (thank god), alarm clocks (for those early morning excursions), bathrobes (luxury!), and a coffee/tea maker. They have a desk (if you must work), and an ironing facility (for those creases you simply cannot abide). An umbrella (because, you know, Greek rain), and free Wi-Fi. They offer an extra long bed, and the possibility for an Interconnecting Room, so you can make sure to see your loved ones. You also have access to a window!
Things to Do, Ways to Relax – The Good Life
Fitness center? Check. Gym/fitness? Check. Swimming pool AND swimming pool [outdoor]? Double check and triple check! A "pool with a view?" Okay, now you're talking. Sauna, spa, steam room? YES, PLEASE. Massage? ABSOLUTELY. They also have a body scrub and body wrap. I'm picturing myself, lounging by the pool, cocktail in hand, feeling all sorts of relaxed.
Okay, so it's an Unbelievable STAY, and it boasts a Greek Island Paradise.
My Honest-To-Goodness Opinion
Alright, as far as my opinion? Look, it sounds great. It really does. The amenities are decent. The safety protocols are solid. The location is, well, Rhodes. Who doesn't want to go to Rhodes? But the devil's in the details, and I really need some more specifics on the accessibility front.
Here's my pitch, my offer, my spiel, my… whatever you want to call it:
Tired of the everyday grind? Yearning for sun-drenched beaches, crystal-clear waters, and the vibrant energy of Greece?
Then Unbelievable STAY Hotel Rhodes IS your ticket! (Okay, I need a better name).
Forget sterile, generic hotel experiences. Imagine this:
- Waking up to a breathtaking view, maybe the pool.
- After that breakfast in your room, or at the buffet, your choice!
- Soaking up the sun by the pool, cocktail in hand, feeling the stress melt away. Poolside bar… I need to test that.
- Indulging in a rejuvenating massage, or a trip to the sauna or steam room.
- Exploring the stunning island, getting lost in the charm of Rhodes. The island boasts interesting historical sites.
- In the evenings, try out the International Cuisine at the restaurant.
- Enjoying the freedom of a safe, clean, and convenient hotel.
I'm talking: Rhodes. Sun. Relaxation. And the chance to finally, truly unwind. Sound good?
Look, I can't guarantee perfection. Life isn't perfect. And that's okay. But I can tell you that Unbelievable STAY Hotel Rhodes sounds like it has the potential to be a truly memorable experience.
So, what are you waiting for?

Escape to Paradise: Lofthotel am Walensee Awaits
Alright, here we go. My attempt at a STAY Hotel Rhodes itinerary – get ready for a rollercoaster, because my travel style is less "perfectly planned" and more "winging it with a healthy dose of caffeine and questionable decision-making."
STAY Hotel Rhodes: A Rhodes Ramble (with a few questionable choices)
Day 1: Arrival, Anxiety, and the Aegean's Allure
- 08:00 - Athens Airport: The Pre-Trip Panic. Okay, first off, Athens airport? Stressful. Finding the right gate? Forget about it. I'm pretty sure I aged a decade in the security line. Found my flight. Whew. One hurdle down, a thousand to go.
- 09:00 - Flight to Rhodes: Window Seat Bliss (and Mid-Flight Snack Guilt). The view, though. The Aegean! Turquoise water, scattered islands… It was breathtaking. I spent a solid hour just glued to the window. Then, the snacks came. Bag of mini-pretzels. Another. I'm a terrible traveler…
- 10:00 - Rhodes Airport: Taxi Tango and a Search for the Right Words. Smooth landing! But navigating the taxi queue? Another challenge. It's a classic: figuring out the prices, communicating with the driver (my Greek is… nonexistent), and praying you don't get ripped off. Eventually, we arrive at STAY Hotel Rhodes. First impressions? Chic. Minimalist. Actually, maybe too minimalist. I'm not sure I understand the design choices, but whatever.
- 11:00 - Hotel Check-in & Room Reveal: The Verdict. The staff is lovely, though I'm already second-guessing the room size. It’s supposed to be cozy, but I think it's just… small. I also spent way longer than I should have figuring out how to work the (very sleek) light switches. I blame the jet lag.
- 12:00 - Lunch near Mandraki Harbour: Fish with a Side of "How Do I Eat This?" My stomach growled, loudly. Found a taverna near Mandraki Harbour. Ordered fresh fish. It looked amazing… until I realized I had no idea how to separate the bones (amateur move, I know). Ended up feeling like a total boob, picking at the fish with a fork. Sigh.
- 14:00 - Mandraki Harbour Exploration: The Colossus and the Tourist Tide. The harbor itself is charming, even with the swarm of tourists (including myself, obvs). The Colossus of Rhodes statue bases are impressive. Wish my camera was.
- 15:00 - Hotel Rest (Attempted): The Nap That Never Was. Exhausted from the travel, I tried for a nap. Failed. The noise from the street was too loud.
- 17:00 - Hotel Rooftop Drinks: Sunset (and Self-Doubt). The rooftop bar at STAY Hotel Rhodes? Stunning. Sunset views. Cool cocktails. But it was also a moment for some serious self-reflection. "Am I doing this travel thing right?" "Do I look ridiculous ordering a drink I can't pronounce?" "Did I forget to pack underwear?" (Thankfully, no.)
- 19:00 - Dinner in Rhodes Old Town: Lost and Loving It. Wandered into Rhodes Old Town. Got utterly, gloriously lost. Found a little taverna tucked away on a cobblestone street. Best food I’ve had all trip. The grilled octopus was… indescribable. Maybe I'm starting to figure out this travel thing after all.
Day 2: History, Hangovers, and a Holy Hike (or, How to Ruin a Good View)
- 09:00 - Breakfast at STAY Hotel Rhodes: The Croissant Crisis. Okay, the breakfast buffet? Pretty good except for the croissants. They are dry, so dry. I had to drench mine in marmalade.
- 10:00 - Rhodes Old Town Exploration (Round 2): A History Lesson (Maybe). Attempted a more structured visit to Rhodes Old Town. Tried to find the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes. I got a bit lost (again), but the cobbled streets, the shops, the sheer history… it's undeniably magical.
- 12:00 - Lunch Near the Beaches: A Salty Affair. Decided to go to a beach near the city. Found a gorgeous restaurant to eat by the sea. Very hot and hungry.
- 14:00 - Hike to Acropolis of Rhodes: Up, Up and… Regret? Okay, this was a mistake. A huge mistake. Thought a hike to the Acropolis would be a good idea. The view, they said, was spectacular. But the sun was beating down, I was already slightly hungover from last night's revelry, and my legs were screaming. By the top, I was a sweaty, red-faced mess, questioning all my life choices. The view was… yeah, it was okay.
- 16:00 - Recovery Nap: Necessary. Slept.
- 18:00 - Dinner and Drinks (The "Oops, I Did it Again" Edition): Found a local bar near the hotel. I feel I will be paying the price.
Day 3: Beach Day Bliss (Mostly), and the Greek Gods' Gift of Gyro Perfection
- 09:00 - Breakfast (and a Bit of Self-Loathing): Back to those questionable croissants…
- 10:00 - Elli Beach: Beach Bliss (or, the Art of Doing Nothing). Okay, this is what I came to Rhodes for. Elli Beach. Crystal-clear water, sun, sand… pure bliss. Spent the morning swimming, reading (tried), and just existing. I even managed to forget I was a sweaty mess the day before.
- 13:00 - Lunch: The Gyro Revelation. Found the perfect gyro from a little street vendor. The meat? Seasoned to perfection. The pita? Fluffy and warm. The tzatziki? Heaven on earth. I swear, I almost cried. This is the kind of travel experience that justifies all the awkward moments and questionable decisions.
- 15:00 - Free Time: A Stroll Through the City. Went to the city again to get some gifts and stuff.
- 18:00 - Dinner by the beach. Went out to a beach restaurant. The restaurant was amazing. Loved the food.
Day 4: Departure and Reflections (and a Vow to Learn Some Greek)
- 09:00 - Breakfast: The Last Stand. Final breakfast. Said goodbye to those darn croissants.
- 10:00 - Check-out: Goodbye, STAY Hotel Rhodes. Checked out and then had a good time.
- 11:00 - Souvenir Shopping Panic (or, "Did I Buy Enough?" A mad dash for souvenirs. I always do this; rushing to the shops at the last minute.
- 12:00 - Taxi to Rhodes Airport: The Goodbye Wave. Farewell, Rhodes!
- 13:00 - Flight from Rhodes to Athens.
- 14:00 - Flight from Athens: To home.
Reflections:
Rhodes? Amazing. STAY Hotel Rhodes? Stylish, if perhaps a tad cold. The food? Incredible. I ate some bad, but I loved the gyro. The people? Kind and welcoming. My travel planning? Flawed, messy, and occasionally brilliant. Did I see all the sights? Nope. Did I make a fool of myself at least a few times? Absolutely. Would I go back? In a heartbeat. And next time, I'm bringing a phrasebook. And maybe a better sense of direction. And definitely more sunscreen.
This is the truth. Hopefully it's what you are expecting.
