I got married earlier this year -which is something I don’t think i’ve actually mentioned here!?- and for our honeymoon, we went to the Greek island of Rhodes for some long overdue rest, relaxation, and of course sun.
Most of the days on the island were spent at the hotel resort sipping cocktails, swimming in the sea, and sunlounging entire afternoons at a time, and while initially this all felt a little jarring, it was a lifestyle I fell into a little too easily as the days passed. Certainly, I hadn’t realised how much I needed a holiday until I was away and completely unplugged from everything.
We stayed at the excellent Atrium Prestige- a remote complex carved into the coast on the south of the island, a base the kind James Bond villains could only dream of. We were fortunate to squeeze in a few excursions too, one, to Rhodes town itself for a walking tour of the medieval architecture and night markets, and two, to the town of Lindos for rooftop cafes and a climb to the Akropolis.
Both were great and definite must-dos on the island…though sadly didn’t have any pools or loungers.
