7.A total of 14,000 low-energy LED bulbs have been fitted around the resort.
8.In total, we’ve used 40,000m of energy-saving LED tape around the premises.
9.With reverse osmosis and nanofiltration technology, not only is the tap water in rooms and common areas drinkable, but you save 450g of CO2 emissions (equivalent to 6km of driving) by consuming your 3-litre daily water quota.
10.All rooms have been fitted with sophisticated energy management systems, so you don’t even have to worry about switching off the lights.

22.We’re proud to be flying the Blue Flag, awarded for the exceptional water quality and cleanliness of Kallithea beach. Rhodes has more coveted Blue Flagged beaches and marinas (55) than any other municipality in Greece
