A spa with
a distinctly European atmosphere, dating from
the inter-war period, lakes and waterfalls,
aqueducts concealed in the lush vegetation.
The Italians
made good use of the island’s rich
sources of water, and the impressive constructions
they left behind still evoke the style and
atmosphere of the period in which they were
built.
The centre is dominated by the Rotunda,
with its massive vaulted roof and fine decoration.
Here the waters of six healing springs issued
from six fountains. The spa was operational
until just a few years ago and its restoration
is being implemented. You may relax in clam
waters of the picturesque bay or explore
its fascinating underwater world by taking
scuba-diving lessons.
And if
the magnificent central entrance seems familiar,
it is not because it was part of any old
Italian film about the Roman emperors, but
part of the film Doloma, staring Greek Actress
Aliki Vougiouklakis, which was filmed here
– like many other Greek films.
To get to the spa, take the main road from
Rhodes town to Lindos and turn left when
you see the sign (11 kilometres from Rhodes
town).
