Simple, laid-back and effortlessly chic, Caesars Gardens Hotel & Spa is an oasis of strictly adults-only tranquillity where the impeccable service and stunning scenery guarantee an unforgettably relaxing stay. The hotel’s low-rise whitewashed buildings are surrounded by craggy hills, Mediterranean gardens and the electric-blue Aegean Sea. The rocky landscape encases the property, sheltering the soporific serenity within from the outside world. The interiors are unmistakably Aegean in aspect, with a warm and inviting mod-bohemian style where locally crafted furnishings adorn elegantly rustic rooms and suites. Similarly low-key is the vibe at The Magnolia Spa, an immaculate outdoor wellness centre where locally sourced ingredients and local wisdom come together to create life-enhancing treatments in the fragrant, peaceful gardens. Once fully pampered, toast to your holiday with a fine-dining experience and distinguished local wines in the Tárate Restaurant, where meals express a modern distinct Mediterranean flavour inspired by the surrounding terrain and the hotel's on-site farm.

Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
The hotel and grounds are very well maintained with a main pool near the bar and a lower level with a jacuzzi and grassy area. Both areas provide a good place to relax and sunbathe (adults only hotel so pool area is always quiet).
Rooms are spacious with bohemian styling. Bed is very comfortable and large. No bath just a shower. Ask for room 208 if you can as it is on the edge of the hotel and provides more privacy on the balcony.
We had a couples massage in the hotels “spa”, whilst the massage was great I would say it’s a stretch to call it a spa. The massage area is a wooden building near the jacuzzi. There are no steam/sauna rooms as you’d expect from a normal Spa.
The staff are what make the hotel truly stand out. They are so hard working all day long from the bar/restaurant staff to the cleaners and reception staff. They sorted any issues or questions we had as quickly as they could.
The main restaurant is not serving a normal dinner at the moment so there is a reduced menu if you do want to eat in the hotel in the evening. (Mostly Greek salad/breads/pinsa).
The hotels location is quite far from lindos centre so expect a 20 minute walk to and from if you do venture there. It is a very steep hill so if you have disabilities you will struggle however taxis are a set 5 eur from the hotel to the town. (Most of the taxis use a set pricing method).
Pricing for drinks and coffees is expensive throughout lindos 3-4 eur for a coffee and a large bottle of water is 4 euros in the hotel however there is a supermarket 3 minutes away so buy your water from there.
In summary, we would happily return to the hotel and recommend it to others.

When you walk the through the doors of the hotel it’s hard not to feel instantly relaxed. It’s so tastefully decorated in a really understated way and has a very calming feel.
We stayed in an acropolis view room, which was again decorated lovely and spacious. My only criticism of the room is the wardrobe was very small with no hanging space for long dresses so I found myself hanging my dresses on the mirror and in the bathroom as there was nowhere else, also a dressing table with mirror above in the bedroom would have been useful.
All the staff were very friendly, professional and attentive, a real credit to the hotel.
My husband and I had a massage each, both really enjoyed it, really relaxing and the little wooden garden room where the spa treatments take place is cute.
In truth we found the restaurant slightly disappointing, the breakfast was quite underwhelming and for a none fish eater like myself the dinner menu was very limited but having said that the restaurant has a lovely relaxing atmosphere and again the staff are great.
All in all this is a lovely boutique hotel that we’d happily stay in again and definitely recommend.

This Hotel is Exceptional! We have just returned from a 7 night stay at Ceasars Gardens and we were absolutely blown away by this hotel. We truly experienced 5* Greek service in this beautiful, boutique styled hotel which totally exceeded all of our expectations. The rooms were spotlessly clean with good air conditioning, cleans linens and towels whilst offering decent tea and coffee making facilities. The fridge was stacked full of additional cold beverages if required. We had a beautiful view over the Pool and the Acropolis and as the hotel is 'Adults Only' the vibe and atmosphere was always quiet and calm. As the hotel is so small and intimate, you really feel that personal touch and the staff are incredibly friendly, courteous and always go above and beyond in making you feel special and at home. The onsite bar and restaurant is wonderful. The Beers and Cocktails always served lovely along with complimentary crisps and lunch whilst the food served onsite is incredible. Be warned though - the portions are huge! Big shout put to Elham, Meda, Diana & Leontis who would always ensure that everything is perfect for their guests. The front of house team, Dajana and Savas were both professional, polite, helpful and always great fun. Nothing was too much for them and they would always take time out of their day to book you a taxi, make restaurant reservations for your evening meal or even recommend excursions or places of interest in Rhodes. We cannot wait to come back and see you all next summer!

Jul 2024 Amazing stay at a gorgeous hotel! So clean, with an amazing pool with comfortable sunbeds that were always available, although during the really high heat the pool was very warm. Lovely room which was spotlessly clean with a fridge (Altho the fridge was fairly full with the mini bar drinks that were fairly costly). Tv in the room with sky news, bbc news and CNN etc also coffee machine available. Hairdryer and cosmetics (shower gel, shampoo and conditioner etc) replenished as required. Cleaned daily and the cleaners popped back to check whether anything more was needed. The bed was so comfy and the air con was brilliant. Great idea to offer a hessian bag for the beach /towels and beach towels. The staff made the hotel they were so friendly and happy to help, nothing was an issue. The drinks were lovely round the pool. It is a little walk into Lindos (about 20mins) and we were aware of this, however during the day it's good to bear in mind the hard trek up the hill in the heat.
Supermarket less than 5 mins walk away. PLEASE if you pop to the supermarket get a couple of carrots or apples for the two donkeys in the field on the left towards the supermarket. They are so friendly and got to know us - must be so hard for them in this heat with limited shelter!
Couple of really small suggestions (only minor) we could have done with more storage space in the room, a set of drawers could easily fit in, and more hangers (saying that we could have asked for more and we didn't). Also we (along with everyone else) draped wet towels over the balcony which didn't look great a couple of wires on the balcony to hang wet items would have been useful.
The offer of a buggy or bus back up the hill /collection from the town would have been wonderful! Even if we paid for it! There was often queues for taxis and we were informed that the buggies were for disabled people/ pregnant woman.
Also the restaurant is so beautiful truly stunning, but on an evening was so quiet. Maybe having a cocktail of the day on offer to entice people to stay and have a drink, or once a week an acoustic guitarist or something? Such as shame it seemed to be so quiet on an evening as it really is stunning! It is quite expensive for food and drinks, although really tasty. The soft drinks came in a small glass, the cocktails were gorgeous but expensive - our bar bill was quite high from having beers, water and cocktails.
Please also feed the hotel cats or give them a bowl of water if you can they are gorgeous!

Room Tip:Avoid walking up the hill in the mid day heat during the summer months! It’s a hard slog!...

An absolute must visit boutique hotel. Beautiful, large rooms with a balcony and a charming pool. We always got a sun bed and the vibe was very relaxing. Only a short 10/15 mins walk to Lindos town (on a small hill but it is easy, we walked it every day / no need for taxis).
I saw negative reviews about the breakfast but I thought it was very good - fresh eggs or omelette, cheeses and meats, salads, fried mushrooms/potatoes and lots of varieties of croissants and breads. Very delicious!
We ate lunch at the hotel everyday, reasonable prices (€10/12) for very delicious food. If you are a vegetarian they have a separate brunch menu I only found out about on the third day. Also their cocktails are very good, I would recommend the frozen strawberry daiquiri!
We ate at the hotel for dinner one night, and whilst more expensive the quality was exceptional and what you would expect of a fine dining restaurant. We also ate at their sister bar/restaurant Cesars Meze bar, which had beautiful views on to Lindos. Again, amazing quality food and we would recommend.
Also HUGE shout out to Mario, always so friendly and impeccable service. Always put a smile on our faces both at the hotel and the Meze bar!
The only small improvement was that the driver who picked us up from the airport moaned at us for 10 minutes as to how we hadn’t provided the hotel with our flight number so he could track the flight, although we had provided it two months earlier when we booked the transfer. He said that was too long ago and as it was Greece we should have expected them to lose it and provided it again. When we told the receptionist he didn’t really seem to care/ understand our frustration. However, this was only minor and on the whole we were blown away by Caesars! Thank you!

My partner and I stayed here for 5 days in August and really enjoyed out stay! The hotel itself is gorgeous and quiet, has a great pool area with beds and spacious rooms. You can get breakfast, lunch and dinner here, or have some drinks at the bar or on your sunbed during the day, and I was a fan of all - especially the lunch. Above anything, the staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and organised. The hotel is a 10 minute walk downhill to the City Centre; to get back up, its a bit of effort in the heat, but a cab is 5 EUR and <5 minutes, and there are tons in the City Centre.
The only point I'd highlight is that the WiFi service is really weak, and there is otherwise no phone service; it is not unique to this hotel, it's more the area as it is up in the mountains (it's fine in the City Centre). Works if you're happy to be plugged off, but if you need the WiFI you will have an issue.
Highly recommend!

We have stayed at many 5 star hotels, and this is by far, one of the best hotels we've stayed in. My husband and I stayed here from the 22nd to the 29th September. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel is absolutely beautiful, very clean and precise, set in a beautiful setting with a lovely swimming pool and enough beds to relax around the pool. What made this stay special was the friendliness of the hotel. The staff were amazing, the service was first class. Breakfast was organised and with plenty of choice. We were always greeted every day by Mario; he always went above and beyond to provide you with an excellent service. He would offer us hot drinks and fresh orange juice on arrival and asked what we would like for breakfast, nothing was too much trouble. In addition to this, there was a buffet with a selection of hot food, toast, cakes, croissants, pies, fresh fruit which came from the hotel. Selection of jam, honey, butter and more...the food was excellent. All the staff were very friendly and helpful, above 5 star service. You could even order a drink from your sunbed by scanning a barcode on your parasol and drinks were bought to you within 5 minutes. At night we would relax at the bar with a few drinks and the bar staff were always friendly and chatty; always made us feel welcome. Especially Leon and unfortunately we can't remember the name of the other man who was always there to help too. The rooms are very spacious and beautifully decorated, very clean and fresh towels everyday. The bed was comfortable; however, the only negative, which is by far no fault of the hotel, is the loud cockerel from a nearby farm that woke us up a few times in the night, but after a few days we got use to the noise. The location is very good; just a short walk to the square where there are a couple of cafes and then another 10 minute walk to the Lindos town and the acropolis; which is definitely worth a visit. Unfortunately, we never had a meal in the hotel, which we regretted as we were rather disappointed by some of the restaurants in the main town: apart from Tambakio, which was set in St Pauls Bay, the food there was exceptional. Also, we walked 10 minutes down the road for lunch at La Casa del Aqua, highly recommend, run by a lovely family. To summarise, I would highly recommend this hotel.

I'll do this in bullet point to be easier to read and hope its helpful:
Good:
Rooms are big Bed is good The grounds are great location was perfect for us. Short walk to Lindos Quiet* Staff are friendly and friendly to a point...*
Point to be aware of:
Breakfast is very limited and dont bother if you have an allergy (Gluten free = rice cracker) leaving only eggs and yogurt - not what I expected for +350 per night).
Breakfast buffet was often empty and on a few days did serve any eggs. (leaving me rice crackers, fruit and yogurt. (again for +350 eur a night)
There is no pool service.
No onsite restaurant
Welcome drink is just water with some juice (no cocktail)
Cocktails / drinks are 3x more expensive then anywhere else and not great.
It's quite but not the good quite
The hotel is full with Dutch people
my review is placed with the view of 350per night if it was 120 I may have said it was a 4
Just dont bother I would not return that is for sure.

We absolutely loved our stay at Caesar Gardens! We went for the suite with private pool as a special treat to celebrate our honeymoon and are so glad we did! We arrived a little after 12am to a bottle of Prosecco chilled in our room which was such a nice surprise.
The private pool is beautiful, with lots of beautiful dragonflies enjoying the flowers & greenery surrounding the pool which were lovely to watch.
The breakfast is great with lots of options. The Caesar salad & club sandwich were the best we’ve ever had! We only sampled two small plates off the dinner menu due to power cuts with the fires but even those were lovely!
The staff were very attentive and friendly which made our stay even better! The attention to detail throughout was incredible, the place is absolutely stunning.
We unfortunately chose to cancel our massages we had planned due to not wanting to disturb the masseuse during the wildfire evacuation period, however, I’m sure the massages on offer are incredible !
Our stay was briefly impacted with the devastating wildfires in Rhodes, however the staff were extremely helpful and calm during the days we stayed which helped us stay calm & enjoy our time.
The hotel is around a 15/20 minute walk to the centre of Lindos town which for us is no problem but if you’re not comfortable with hills / walking in heat there are taxis available to make it easier to get around!
We noticed that some hotels had a small buggy system taking guests to and from town/beach which we felt would be an excellent addition to the services offered by the hotel, but not essential!
Also, the little cats that roam the hotel grounds are so sweet.

A wonderfully scenic boutique hotel set in a quiet area at the back of Lindos.
The pool, bar and restaurant area , grounds, and rooms are immaculate and very clean, and the staff are very welcoming and attentive.
There are two pools and plenty of places to sit and sunbath, and as the hotel only has about 25 rooms, sun beds are always available.
Location wise, it’s about a 15 minute walk down hill to the town of Lindos with a taxi back being 6 euros. The beach is a little further down the hill.
The breakfast was decent, quite a bit of choice and lots of freshly cooked choices with eggs. One thing that could be improved at breakfast is that a lot of the food was left with no covers on (the breads and pastries etc) and as the hotel’s breakfast area is outside, some of the food would go stale in the heat, and also meant that flies and bugs could land on it. I feel it needs to be covered. I did ask for new bread and the waiters were happy to bring new slices out when it was stale.
The food we did eat from the restaurant for lunch was of a very good standard albeit, slightly more expensive than what you would pay in Lindos town.
A few things that could be better is that the prices are quite expensive compared to other hotels, bars and restaurants.
It’s far cheaper to eat and drink at the restaurants in Lindos town than eat or drink in the onsite bar and restaurant.
Also, the mini bar prices are very expensive! This may be classed as a 5 star hotel, but they were charging 8 euros for a miniature pot of Pringles in the mini bar, when you could buy a full size pot for 2.80 in the supermarket 5 minutes away. M&Ms at 10 euros and gummy bears at 12 euros, again both under 3 euros in the local supermarket, and the drinks were no different. A fizzy soft drink was about 7 euros in the hotel, compared to 1.80 in the supermarket. So some of the prices really don’t stack up.
The choice of English tv channels in the room was extremely limited too. In my experience, 5 star hotels usually offer more than just BBC world news as the only English Channel. This wouldn’t have been so bad had the WiFi worked but the signal was pretty poor in the rooms! It was intermittent and kept disconnecting. After asking several times if there was a problem with it, the hotel did reset the router but it was still as bad. Unfortunately, due to the hotels location, the phone signal was equally as bad, and the 5G signal was just as poor.
If these small things could be improved, then this hotel would have been faultless.

The hotel is located at the back of Krana, which is the flat area above Lindos. Depending on how quickly you walk expect it to take about five minutes to walk from the hotel to the main road, then about ten minutes down the steep road to the main square, then depending on where you're heading in the village add a little longer. The return trip is all uphill so will take longer, but you can always get a taxi to and from the village if you think it's too far or too difficult.
There are more places to choose from in the Lindos area.
