Hi, I wondered if anyone who had been married in Rhodes could tell me what shoes they wore. I've heard that heels are impossible! Im getting married at St Pauls Bay. Thanks

not impossible.. depends what you are used to.. the way down is paved properly but steep

I only had to go down hill, afterwards we were picked up by a boat.

Hi Katz100
I took a pair of flats with me, white fip flops, there is no way i could have walked down the hill in the heels i was wearing, but i am one of them clumsy people that can fall over nothing :lol: I know i would have taken a tumble i had i tried it in my heels lol. Once at the bottom i left the flip flops there and slipped my shoes back on.

Hi Marcuschap,

Hope you don't mind me asking for more information but do you recommend booking a couple of nights away from Lindos?. I was thinking of booking a night in Rhodes Town and a night in Falaraki or will there be enough to do and see in Lindos for 14 days?.

Any help greatly appreciated

No problem!

Well Lindos is a very chilled out resort and once you've seen the Acropolis, checked out the church, the bays and the shops there's not really alot else to see. Plenty of restaurants and bars to keep the 2 weeks occupied if your holidays are like mine and in the main consist of sunbathing, eating and drinking.

I'd say hiring a car for maybe 3 days is the best way to go. There's alot to see on the island and a car is the easiest way to check out what you want to at your own pace. If you fancy a night in Rhodes Town you could book a hotel for the night, i've done that before rather than get a taxi. Alexia Hotel is fairly cheap but clean, friendly and in a great location (v close to the beach and nightlife).

I wouldn't book a night in Faliraki as you're then stuck there for the evening and May can be very quiet. If i go i normally get the last bus from Lindos (around 6pm), go for dinner, out for drinks and then get a taxi back when i'm ready.

Does anyone know of any companies offering good but reasonable wedding insurance and or holiday insurance. I've always gone with the post office before but I'm thinking I should be shopping around a bit this time :?

Hi Marcuschap,

Many thanks for the advice!!. I couldn't book the hotel that you mentioned but managed to get another (Hotel International) for Rhodes Town. I may just book a night in Faliraki as there is a studio going for £16 for the two of us at Strevos Apartments so for that price even if we don't end up staying then it's cheap enough!!.

Many thanks for the information, greatly appreciated

Hi everyone

Not much been happening here recently has there!!! Whos getting married in May then - are you all sorted out or just a bag of nerves :? Its 19 weeks to my big day I'm pretty much sorted really or at least I think I am :) Has anyone walked from Lindos Memories Hotel to Lindos reception??? how long does it take. I know its easier to get a taxi but I have to walk of my gyros and alchohol intake at some point :D

Hi Helen

The restaurant has an extensive menu ranging from pasta dishes, fish dishes (the salmon is fab), steaks, chicken dishes, traditional greek dishes, and simple dishes like "fish and chips" . The desserts are homemade ( the banoffi pie is to die for ! ) Overall there is plenty to choose from to suit most tastes. Have eaten there many times and have always really enjoyed it.

Hope this helps.
