Driving along coastal roads in

Rhodes

Rhodes is where medieval charm meets beachside freedom, and having a rental car from Sync lets you experience the island at your own pace. Start your mornings driving through quiet pine-covered roads, reach Tsambika beach before the crowds, and easily park near the cobbled streets of Lindos for a sunset walk. The ability to explore without fixed timetables or taxi wait times turns a good trip into a great one, especially when the island has so much to offer beyond the obvious.

Choosing where to stay depends on your vacation style. If nightlife and restaurants are your focus, staying near Rhodes Town gives you easy access to everything on foot. For a more romantic or laid-back vibe, Lindos or Archangelos village offer peaceful charm and stunning views. With a Sync rental car, you’re not restricted by location—whether your hotel is on a quiet hill or a seaside village, your perfect base is always within reach.

A great tip for travelers is to get an early start. Popular beaches like Saint Paul’s Bay or the thermal springs of Kallithea get busy fast in the summer months. But with your own car, you can easily reach more remote gems like Agathi or Glyfada beach—ideal for those seeking calm waters and fewer tourists. Bring water, sunscreen, and your favorite playlist, and let your day unfold freely, guided only by your mood.

Don’t skip the mountain villages. Embonas and Apollona are famous for local wines and warm, home-style tavern food. With your Sync car, you can stop for wine tasting, buy handmade ceramics, or enjoy panoramic views on scenic inland routes. A road trip to Prasonisi in the south, where the Aegean and Mediterranean meet, is the kind of adventure you’ll never forget—made easy when your itinerary isn’t limited by public transport.
