Swap Welsh drizzle for Greek sizzle this summer… and in the school holidays too, with a free child place from Cardiff!✈️😀
Extra £50 per person off

Sat 18 July 2026 | 7 nights | Eden Roc Resort Hotel, Kalithea, Rhodes
All Inclusive | Executive Suite with Sea View
1 x free child place from Cardiff
From £5,366, including £357 total discount
child ages 6 and 10
( can go from 2-16 price may vary but still free child place available )

Kalithea sits on the north‑east coast of Rhodes and is home to the famous Kalithea Springs: a gorgeous 1920s spa complex with domes, arches and serious “wow” factor. The whole area has a relaxed, laid‑back feel: think easy beach days, sunset strolls and taverna evenings, perfectly placed between cultured Rhodes Town and livelier Faliraki if you fancy a change of pace.

At the Eden Roc Resort Hotel you’ll find:
• 8 restaurants, so there is always something new to try (and no one arguing over the menu)
• 6 bars, including a Champagne lobby bar and a pool bar overlooking the Olympic‑sized pool
• 2 main pools plus 1 kids’ pool for all the splashing, jumping and “Mum, watch this!” moments
• Daily and evening entertainment, with live shows, a weekly folklore night and a mini‑disco
• Kids’ club and a fully supervised babies’ club (seasonal), so grown‑ups can grab a quiet drink or two

Items marked with * incur extra charges, payable locally.

Getting there and getting around:
• Around 35 minutes from Rhodes Airport by coach
• Right next to the beach, between Kalithea and Rhodes Town
• About 1 km to a supermarket and 1.5 km to shops and restaurants
• Roughly 15 minutes’ drive to Rhodes Town
• Bus stop right outside the hotel (limited service), with the main bus stop around 700 m away

Please note: there is a Greek tourist tax of €15 per room per night for 4‑star accommodation, payable locally on arrival. This is not included in the holiday price.

Sun, sea, slides, cocktails and no dinner to cook: if that sounds like your kind of school holiday, this Rhodes escape could be the one.
