Question

Going to Greece for the first time and spending a week in rhodes.. A few questions:

1) Best to hire a car/motor bike/quad bike? How much will it cost for 5 days?

2) Blue Horizon Hotel, Ialysus Hotel - anyone knows what it's like?

3) What kind of food can we expect (greek salad, moussaka??) or some other stuff as well?

4) Are there any shops/ restaurants to visit in Ialyssos? Suggestions..

5) Is it worth taking a ferry to a nearby island. If so, which one?

Really appreciate answers to any of the questions.

We're going for a relaxing, chilled break.. eating, swimming,bumming on the beach..

Thanks

The answers depend on what you enjoy doing but

1) It is best not to hire bike/quad bikes unless qualified and insured, a car is much better and will cost in the region of £80

2) check the hotel out at - holidays uncovered.com

3) expect very good international and local Greek food

4) Not been to lalyssos but in general all resorts have shops, Rhodes town has plenty to see and do, as does Lindos

5) A day trip to Turkey is worth while (if only to experience being harassed outside every shop)

If you hire a car i would suggest visiting more of the Island, Lindos, Pefkos resort and village, Rhode's at night, wine tasting etc. You will have a great time whatever you do, great place to relax and enjoy good food.
good luck
