Hi we are staying in ixia rhodes for the first time can anyone tell me about the cost of wine per glass in the local bars and the price of international lagers like corona or similar,thanks really looking forward to it.
Billiwizz
we sell wine but it's extremely rare for anyone to ask for it so we only tend to have a common or garden greek white in the fridge and maybe one other like pino or something but as i say,very rarely do i get asked for it.
spirits vary,ask for a vodka and coke and you get cheap vodka but 2-4-1 for 4 euros,with triple measures in both,never order a double in greece,we dont use optics or anything like that so you'll just get charged double for the exact same drink. if you specify smirnoff,branded whisky/brandy etc you'll pay 5-7e but again it'll be at least a double. cocktails are generally 5 euros,2-4-1.
prices in ixia are probably the same but i never go there so cant say
for sure but the prices are pretty much the same all over greece,orfinidou street in rhodes town is a much better night out and colorado club is a very good venue for a couples night out,if you decide instead to visit the old town at night be prepared to pay high prices for drinks,imported beers can vary from 6-10 euros a bottle but it's worth it as it's an amazing place.
Thanks for the advice,but am really worried now as i only drink wine and hate retsina
greek wine is nice,worry not,rhodes makes some of the best wine in the country,retsina is a different type of wine altogether and i cant stand it either,but some of the wine on the island is lush.
Retsina is normally available to order Billiwizz but if you ask for white wine that's what you'll get. Even if you ask for house/barrel wine they'll often sell Emery which is produced on the island and decent stuff. Worry not as Samba says, i'm sure you'll be able to enjoy a glass or two, or...
Thanks guys really looking forward to the holiday now,any tips about the area ixia.
go up to the top of monte smith and see the rodos acropolis and then up to ancient ialysos and the cross at filerimos....go into rhodes for a night out on orfinidou street,end up in colorado....go to mandraki harbour and get a boat trip to lindos...the choices are endless,will you have a hire car?
No my partner craig will not drive abroad so we will be gettiing on public transport or taxi

theyre based in faliraki but pick you up from your hotel in the morning and deliver you again later on,and provide a snack stop etc,seriously the best day out on the island bar none in my opinion
