Why Stay in Villas in Ixia Rhodes?

Ixia is a great choice if you want a villa holiday close to Rhodes Town without staying directly inside the busy city centre.

The area stretches along a long coastal road with beaches, hotels, and restaurants facing the sea. Because it’s so close to the capital, many travellers choose Ixia Rhodes villas as a base for exploring both the north and the west sides of the island.

Local Insight: The West Coast Has Wind and Sunset Views

One thing to know about Ixia is that the west coast of Rhodes is windier than the east coast due to seasonal winds across the Aegean.

For many travellers this is actually a positive because it keeps temperatures comfortable during the hottest summer months and creates excellent conditions for windsurfing and water sports.

It also means that villas here often enjoy cool evening breezes and beautiful sunset skies.

Local Tip from Looneytravels

If you're booking Ixia villa rentals, I usually recommend choosing properties slightly above the coastal road rather than directly on it.

The seafront road is one of the main routes between Rhodes Town and the airport, so villas on the hillsides or quieter residential streets tend to offer:

• more privacy

• better sea views

• less traffic noise

You’ll still be only 5–10 minutes from Rhodes Town.
