We stayed here for a week late September and absolutely loved our time in Rhodes. The highlights of the hotel are easily the staff and the food. All the people were wonderful and friendly, we always felt welcomed and appreciated by the restaurant staff at every meal time and I couldn't fault their service. They always made an effort to greet us and made themselves available to help and chat with us if we needed anything. They were all lovely, special shoutout to the lovely ladies on breakfast who were always smiling and helped us learn some Greek to see us through our time on the island! :D We stayed half board and absolutely loved the food! There was plenty of variety and we got to try loads of beautiful Greek food. I'd say there was something for everyone - different Greek specialities on the evening buffets, plus your standard chips and more basic food if you're not into trying new and better things... We arrived late in teh evening and we were given a plate of food with things like meat slices, cheese, bread to see us through until the morning. If I had to be picky I'd say the room was a bit dated, but it definitely wasn't bad - we had a comfy bed and the room was clean on arrival. It has a small kitchen area which we didn't use at all for food prep, because we didn't need to. It had basic dishes, cutlery etc. It could all have done with a good clean, but we could have sorted that out if we needed to use any of it. We don't feel the need to have our room cleaned every day so only took the 'do not disturb' off the door a couple of times. Our bed was made lovely, clean towels, bathroom cleaned, but the floor wasn't swept which was a bit of a downside because my bonce sheds hair like it's going out of fashion. We prefer sea swimming and were too busy for sunbathing so didn't use the pool area at all really, but it all seemed nice and popular and it was always buzzing throughout the day. The pool bar was nice and we had a few drinks there and played pool. There was often entertainment at the pool bar in the evenings which also seemed popular, particularly the karaoke. We had a pool view room and probably would avoid this if we visited again, just because we're day birds and it could be a bit noisy in the nights as the pool bar was pretty much right below our balcony. The location was great, we loved Ixia! The beach is just a short walk away and there are plenty of shops and lovely restaurants on your doorstep. We walked the whole Ixia strip at least once a day and never got bored of it. It's close enough to Rhodes Town to get there quickly on a bus or in a taxi, and if you want to go further afield there are loads of places near the hotel to rent a car or book some excursions. The reception also had lots of info and were ready to help with any of this. On the whole we loved the hotel, it was perfect for us, and would definitely look to stay again if we go back to Rhodes. We were super grateful to all the staff we met, and were gutted to leave! There are loads of more extravagant hotels near by, but they also came with much more extravagant price points when I was booking. I feel like we had great value at the Poseidonia, and the food and service outweighed any nitpicky points I can make about the room etc. We loved it, and hopefully will visit again one day :) Ευχαριστώ!

Great family hotel. We chose all inclusive which is recommended. Good food for both breakfast, lunch and dinner with excellent variety. However, there are certain things that detract from giving full points 1. The hotel advertises that it has wifi, but the wifi coverage was poor and often nothing/zero 2. Very poor insulation from the front door. we often heard people walking past in the hallway, which was annoying at night 3. Most people have a smartphone or pad. The TV should have the option of reciving streamining from a smart device. In overall, great hotel with excellent staff and service.
