Casa Cook Rhodes
Rhodes, Greece
Kolymbia
Vibe
Sunbeds and hammocks cluster around the central pool, where resident DJs soundtrack slow afternoons beneath the limestone ridge of Tsambika Mountain.
“Bohemian poolside roost”
Low-rise white cubes, raw concrete floors, rattan furnishings, and shaded verandas stepping directly into shared swim-up pools.
Adult-focused grounds centered around a massive lagoon pool, private sun decks, and daily open-air terrace activities.
The Kitchen Club pairs poolside daybeds and craft cocktails with nightly resident DJ sets under starlit pergolas.
In Kolymbia beneath Tsambika Mountain, a short stroll from the Aegean coast.
“White geometric blocks sit against rugged limestone hills, while suites open onto terraces with direct access to shared pools, or private ones for extra seclusion.”
Rooms
Low-slung beds, raw concrete, and woven textiles open to private wooden decks stepping straight into shared swim-up pools.
“Set against a stretch of muscular rocky hills, the vibe is resolutely mid-century California louche with accents of exposed stone walls, timber decks and pergolas.”
Wellness
Open-air yoga unfolds on shaded timber terraces, while the spa delivers botanical bodywork and massages alongside a fully equipped gym.
Backstory
The retreat opened in 2016 as the debut property of Casa Cook, built to bring bohemian boutique aesthetics to the island.
Eat & drink
The Kitchen Club serves fresh Mediterranean plates beneath a jungle mural, while Olive Restaurant offers poolside Greek meze and cocktails.
The neighborhood
Set in quiet Kolymbia, the grounds sit moments from the coast, thirty minutes by car from both Lindos and Rhodes Old Town.
The app
This is one hotel. The app has every one we rate, in your pocket, for the whole trip.
Our shorthand
What makes a hotel special, how well they pull it off, and what it feels like outside the door.
How well they pull it off
Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
They did this well. You’ll notice.
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Architecture and interiors lead. There’s a creative vision at work.
The guest is conspicuously well cared for. Requests met before they’re made.
Rooted in place. Local character runs through the whole stay.
Energy and scene. Where the city goes out, whether or not it’s sleeping here.
A building with history. The story of the place is part of the stay.
Built around feeling better. Rest, sweat, soak, spa.
A hotel the city grew up with. Same rituals, same regulars.
A world of its own. No reason to leave the property.
Scene — what’s outside the door
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A place apart: the property is the destination.
