Absolutely terrible hotel experience. I would not stay here again and definitely would not recommend it to anyone. The cleanliness standards are shocking. There was mould on the curtains in our room, the floors were never properly cleaned, and housekeeping basically just came in to make the bed and leave. Room towels are only changed every three days, which is honestly disgusting for a hotel, and beach towels every two days — something I’ve never experienced anywhere else. The entire hotel is extremely outdated. The furniture, decor, doors, and overall condition of the rooms feel old and poorly maintained. Some of the doors barely work, and they also feel very insecure and easy to unlock, which made us uncomfortable during our stay. The only positive thing I can say is that most of the staff were friendly and polite. Unfortunately, the reception staff were the complete opposite — rude, dismissive, and very unhelpful whenever we needed assistance. Overall, this hotel was a huge disappointment and nowhere near the standard it advertises.

Avoid This Hotel – Dirty Rooms, Terrible Food and Nothing Like the Photos Absolutely not a 4-star experience and honestly one of the most disappointing hotels we’ve stayed in. The rooms were dirty from the moment we arrived, with a horrible mould smell that never went away during the stay. The furniture is extremely old, worn out and badly needs replacing. The whole hotel feels tired and poorly maintained. The food was another huge disappointment — repetitive every single day, low quality and often tasteless. After a couple of days it felt impossible to eat there anymore because it was basically the same food over and over again. Definitely not what you expect from an all-inclusive holiday. Drinks were equally poor. Tiny plastic cups for everything, weak cocktails and cheap-tasting alcohol. You spend more time going back for refills than actually enjoying your drink. The WiFi was terrible throughout the hotel and barely worked in the rooms. For a hotel charging these prices in 2026, this is simply unacceptable. The photos online are very misleading compared to the reality. This hotel seriously needs renovation and much better management. I genuinely do not understand how this place has the rating it does. Would never return and would absolutely not recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in Rhodes.

We spent 7 nights at the Sunshine Hotel in Rhodes in May 2026. It has been a lovely holiday, with the temperature around 25 degrees all week. We took a taxi from the airport, which is about 12km away. It cost us €28 for 3 adults with 2 large suitcases. The pools are amazing, kept very clean and are sparkling clear. In fact, the whole site is kept immaculate with grounds staff working throughout the day. It's an all inclusive resort and there are meals at breakfast, lunch and dinner with soft drinks, water, beer, wine and a limited amount of spirits available all day for free. The cleaning staff in the restaurant are excellent and there was always clean tables to be found to sit at. The daily entertainment is brilliant and includes aqua aerobics, dart games, volleyball, water polo, a big chess set and crazy mini golf amongst other things. The beach is literally the other side of the pool area and is solely for the use of guests at the hotel. The local area seems a little run down, but there are shops and restaurants within a few hundred yards of the hotel which are well worth the visit, especially The Royal for a lunch and The Garden Restaurant for dinner. Both are fairly reasonable in price and you must try the local Milokleftis Apple Cider as it is very easy to drink on a hot sunny day. The only real downsides to the holiday have been the beds and the onsite Mamma Mia Al A Carte Restaurant. The beds are very hard and it can take a few days getting used to. Some mornings I woke up feeling more stiff and sore than when I went to bed. As for the Mamma Mia restaurant, you get 1 visit for free and any subsequent visits you pay for. However, the food wasn't cooked fresh, it was already prepared, and it was really unappetising. So much so that we left the main course unfinished and headed off to a local restaurant (Joni's Place - literally 50 yards from the hotel entrance). I would not recommend the Mamma Mia restaurant, but the main buffet restaurant is very good. All in all, it has been an excellent holiday and I would recommend the Sunshine Hotel. Just an additional bit of info, we were here for 7 nights and the tourist tax is €10 per night per room, which meant ours was €70. We paid this to the hotel on arrival.

Got a deal with on the beach holidays and sunshine hotels grounds are so beautiful and on the beach ⛱️ The staff and additional staff here are so kind and work so hard . Tommy who can speak many languages helped us get an exclusive boat trip outside of the hotel . Nothing is no trouble for any of the staff. Food isnt personally 4 star for me, But I can get by.. The buildings , rooms , plumbing systems isnt the best so we to deal with leak in bathroom most nights. Overall a lovely week away with a friend.

Great hotels along the sea front with its own part of the beach and large pool area. The rooms are large and include big bathroom, two large double beds and sofa. However cleaning staff aren't great and you dont always get enough towels and on one occasion didn't even get toilet roll! The bar staff are always friendly however the drinks are incredibly poor and the food is very hit and miss. The best part is the location as you are literally close to some of the best areas and shops which include the amazing sports bar Alkionis and bike and car rentals galore. We will be coming back next year but only because the rooms are perfect and the location.
