Παστίδα, Ρόδος

Pastida is a lovely village to stay in some good tavernas to either eat or watch the world go by. There is an amazing cocktail bar called Epavalis which also serves amazing food.

I went to Pastida for the first time last May, and stayed at the Garden Hotel. I loved it all, the village was lovely to walk around and has lots of lovely places to eat. I found it so peaceful, also caught the bus into Rhodes town a few time, the bus stops just outside the hotel. I am already booked to come back this year, and am counting down the days.

I have stayed in Pastida a few times over the past few years, having stayed 3 times at the Garden Hotel which is where I am planning to spend part of my Greece when I next visit.
Pastida is a very friendly village and as I was then travelling on my own I didn't feel nervous at all, I also visited Marieta's Hotel where I made friends and still keep in contact with them, I haven't stayed at Marieta's though.
The local bus stops in the village square. There were a few eateries/bars/shops in the village.
Looking to my next visit even though it will be shorter this time.
