This villa is such an idyllic, beautiful setting with an incredible view across the bay. The property is well cared for and maintained and has been upgraded considerably from the photos on Vrbo, including new outdoor furniture and comfortable wooden sunloungers, an outdoor shower and a huge smart tv in the lounge area. The pergola has been replaced by a tiled roof so you can sit outside on the corner sofa or gorgeous marble table area whatever the weather. There is a dishwasher, washing machine, outdoor grill, microwave and all amenities you could need and lots of nice little touches to make your stay extra special. There is even a room filled with dvds, books and jigsaws you are welcome to borrow. We stayed for a week at the end of October and had a relaxing time in gorgeous sunshine. It is a real slice of paradise set in the hill above Vlycha Bay. The generous welcome food pack on arrival was very much appreciated as we arrived late on Saturday and the big supermarkets don’t open on Sundays. Communication with the owner Shane was excellent. He couldn’t do enough for us and Terri who maintains the property and pool was really helpful and both made sure we had a wonderful week at the villa. We hope to return again soon and would recommend this property to anyone wanting a peaceful stay in a pretty, well maintained property.

This was our third stay at the villa. The pool area is lovely & the view of the bay is stunning. The kitchen is well equipped & the lounge area has a huge TV with a huge choice of DVD's if you enjoy a movie night. The bedrooms are a good size & the upstairs bedrooms have balconys & again beautiful views of the bay. Shane is a brilliant host, always replies quickly & answers questions & sorts out anything that may crop up.Terry, the pool man is lovely & checks the pool every other day & changes the bedding with the help of his family.I would say you need a car as the supermarket is a 5 minute drive away & there are lots of lovely places to see on the island.

The villa is absolutely gorgeous. Super clean and has everything you need! The pool was large and spotlessly clean and the view out across the pool and across to the bay below was breathtaking! We all agreed that it was the best villa we had ever stayed at! The host was so kind.. we arrived to a fridge containing essentials such as milk and cheese,fruit and ham and wine and beer! A very welcome site after a long day of travelling. Communications with Shane was quick and easy and the midweek change of sheets and towels was appreciated. Beds were very comfortable.5 minute walk down hill to the beach which was sandy and not at all crowded. The Lindian Jewel hotel is on your route to the beach and was our daily stop for beer or cocktails a snack or evening meals. Excellent food reasonably priced and fabulous friendly staff. All in all a wonderful stay at a beautiful villa and like many of the other previous guests we hope to return.

Excellent villa, lovely pool and close to bars

The villa was as described and worked perfectly for our family of 5, plenty of room and everything we needed.It was a really nice touch when we turned up, the fridge had been stocked with some basics like milk, butter, bread, fruit and a few beers, plus a nice bottle of red on the table, great way to start the holiday.The pool and putside area were excellent too.The villa is up a steep hill but its not too bad for a few minutes. There are a few bars and restaurants within walking distance and then Lindos is about 10 mins in a car. We were able to get taxis from Lindian Jewel hotel at the bottom of the hill.Communication with Shane was easy and always responded quickly to any questions.Overall, highly recommended

Stunning. We actually changed our plans from a Rhodes visit of touring the island to one of relaxing at the villa based on the astounding beauty and comfort of this place. Shane was fantastic to work with, was a clear communicator, and his hospitality was over the top. I'd highly recommend this villa to anyone and my family hopes to use it again for a futrue visit to Rhodes!

Our second visit to this lovely villa, it felt like coming home! Everything we needed, with two 79 year olds we definitely need a car. Supermarket just over a mile away, pool area beautiful, lovely beach down the hill and fantastic views. Teri is very helpful and just a call away if you need anything.

Lovely Property / Beautiful Location

Lovely villa in a lovely location. The villa was exactly as advertised, and even came with a well stocked fringe (wine, cheese, ham, juice, fruit, water etc). Host (Shane) always responded quickly to any questions. Terry the maintenance guy was awesome. We called him out once as we had a question, and he was here super quickly (awesome service). We went out to Lindian Jewell a couple of times (2 minute walk down a steep hill), and it was lovely. We also had food and drink at The Banana Bar on the beach which was lovely and fully shaded). The Ktima restaurant is lovely but overpriced (had better meals at the Lindian Jewell and in Lindos. The Dionysos Resturant was recommended by Shane. This was also a lovely restaurant with a lovely rooftop view. Definitely recommend this villa for anyone looking for a villa in Rhodes. Only thing to be mindful of is the extremely steep ‘road / path’ leading to the villa. But don’t let this put you off. You get used to driving up it, and it’s only about 100metres. Thankyou Shane and Terry!!!! Awesome Hosts!!!

Once in a lifetime vacation

Our stay at Shane's villa was amazing. We brought our family of 6 from the USA to stay here and had an amazing time. This villa was spacious inside and out. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook in , including a BBQ grill outside. The pool and patio space had incredible views that we soaked in morning and night. We made sure to get good use out of the pool daily, whether it be morning before our beach trips or afternoon before cocktails! Everything was well maintained and updated. Family movie nights were a plus with the extensive selection they had. The villa is located minutes (walking) to a beautiful beach and great restaurants. We used the mini market several times for basic things but did big food shopping at the local supermarket five minutes with a car. We did rent a car for the week which gave us great options for dining, beaches and ability to take a day trip to another island from a boat in Rhodes .The parking space by the villa was great since the house is located on a very steep incline. Terry the house manager/pool maintenance man was fantastic and quick to respond with any questions we had. He loves his job and it shows . He went out of his way to find us some charcoal that we could not to make our family dinner a success!! I would definitely stay here again if we ever make it back to Rhodes! Thank you Shane for making our family vacation one to remember.

October break

We had a fantastic holiday at the Villa Herrera. There were 6 adults and we had plenty of room, thanks to the great weather & outside area. The 3 bedrooms were a good size & with 2 bathrooms, we had no space issues. The kitchen area was well equipped & the host, Shane was extremely generous with a very well stocked fridge on arrival. The pool and outside area were just lovely! Sunbeds for 6, a cozy sofa area & stunning views across the bay. We spent most of our time here. Terry the pool & general maintenance man was really friendly & helpful but managed to not be intrusive either. Whenever we needed any help, he was there in a very short time & sorted any minor issues straight away. Shane, the host, was great. He was always quick to respond to our messages, generous with equipment & food - he thoroughly deserves his premier host status. We felt Shane & Terry were a good team & felt in very safe hands. We would come back without hesitation.

Greek villa with stunning views

This villa was perfect for our stay, spotlessly clean and spacious with large outside area which had two seating areas both in the shade, as well as plenty of sunbeds round the pool. The views both from the pool area and both balconies are stunning. The kitchen has everything you need, we barbecued a few times. Shane was a fabulous host, answering any queries very quickly during the booking process, and Tery, the local pool cleaner and maintenance man was brilliant, giving us his number and answering straightaway when we had a problem (goats pulled the bougainvillea off the wall and blocked the road - Tery came right away to clear it), and let us know he was available 24/7. It was also the first villa we have ever had which has had a towel and bedding change halfway through our stay, and the best welcome package ever, with a fridge stocked with fruit, wine, juice, milk, cheese, ham and bread. The road up to the villa is steep, but manageable for most people - maybe the elderly would struggle. I would recommend a car - there is a supermarket less than 5 minutes drive away. All in all, a fabulous holiday and we look forward to coming back!

Fabulous Villa in an amazing location

Fabulous Villa, with a wonderful location. Everything about this place is fantastic from the view from the villa, balconies and terrace, to the outside space with outstanding areas to relax, plenty of shade for those who like to get out of the sun but yet stay close to others and the interior is just as stunning, with some of the comfiest beds we've had abroad. This place is a jewel in the Aegean, so relaxing and comes with a resident wildlife show of birds in the afternoon, and the local goats climbing the hillside behind, close enough to Lindos town with it's wonderful meandering little streets, great restaurants and wonderful bays and to quieter Lardos. The decking mentioned in previous reviews looks brand new and appears to have been replaced, the welcome pack provided included much appreciated drinks, fruit, and essentials and a surprise bottle of vino too. Thank you Shane for sharing your home, this villa is just fabulous and we hope to return in the future.

Great location and views

This was our second stay at this property which in our opinion is in the best location in Vlicha Bay being in a quiet location with fantastic views across the bay. There is a very short walk downhill to the beach, small supermarket and small selection of tavernas. The pool and terrace area has a variety of plants that set this relaxing area off, I have to agree with the previous review that the decking is a bit tired but not an major issue and I am sure this will be addressed by the owner. The villa has everything you need and a good welcome pack with your basics on arrival. I am sure we will return again soon.
