Halki
Lonely Planet review for Halki
The picturesque village of Halki lies at the heart of the Tragaea, a vast plain of olive groves and unspoilt villages, dotted with Byzantine churches. Halki is a must for its handsome villas, kitron (citron liqueur) distillery and enthralling ceramics gallery-shop, L'Olivier. Refuel in the shady town square and pop into Era for locally made sweets and jams.

Villa DolphinsHalki " We loved it and we will be back ! "

My wife and me spent several holidays in the Dodecanese Islands.
This year we went to Halki Island for a few days. Halki is a small traditional island just 2 hours from Rhodes Port via ferry. The town of Nimborio is very quiet, hardly any cars or motorbikes but nice cafés and restaurants along the waterfront. We liked swimming and skin-diving in the clear water at Pondamos beach which is situated only a few minutes walk from the town. I went for a walk in the mountains and I enjoyed the beautiful landscape.
In Halki we stayed in the "Villa Dolphins", a traditional Greek stone house right behind the lovely church. The apartment was well renovated with every modern comfort, air condition and communication system for Internet (Wifi) access and satellite TV / cinema programme. The house disposes of a veranda with a gorgeous view of the harbour and the town. It was very quiet and cozy. We really enjoyed our stay in Villa Dolphins, it was absolutely lovely.
