The Melenos Art Boutique has captured our hearts and has proven to be a little piece of paradise and the hidden gem of Lindos! This hotel boasts the most stunning location with breathtaking views of the bay and beyond. We arrived late at night and found sandwiches, cake and wine waiting for us in our beautiful superior suite. A nice little touch as all the restaurants were closed. It was a sheer delight to spend 10 nights at the Melenos. The small team of staff make this hotel an unforgettable, perfect experience, and they all need full recognition for their contributions. The breakfasts are delicious and served in the most beautiful garden overlooking the bay on one side, and overlooked by the Acropolis on the other, what more could one ask for? Lindos itself is captivating with an abundance of restaurants and gift shops and the atmosphere is very low-key. There is no pressure from front-of-house staff at restaurants and we were able to view the menus without hassle. There is a list of restaurant recommendations in the suite and we found this very helpful. We found it best to book the day before as it does get very busy in Lindos with day tourists. It's been 16 years since my last visit and sadly the poor donkeys are still being used to transport lazy people up to the Acropolis. Having said that, they do look in better health and there is a weight limit, but it is still a tragic sight to see adults riding the poor worn-out animals. We hired a car for 5 days as there's not much to do once the Acropolis, 2 small beaches and St Paul's Bay, which is on the doorstep, have been explored. Many thanks to Georgia and all of the team, it was a beautiful, unforgettable experience. Enjoy your rest once the season comes to an end. Best wishes, J & A
