The BLUE HORIZON RESORT HOTEL is located on the beach of Ialysos, on the northwest part of Rhodes, it is 8 km from the island capital, and 6.5 km from the airport. Ialysos, also known as Trianta , is the second largest city on the island, with a population of approximately 12,000, it also features one of the most beautiful and fully organized beaches, with fine sand, pebbles and crystal-clear waters. It is also known for attracting wind surfers, due to the favorable winds that blow in the area. Due to this, wind surfing races are held here every year, including European and even international events, as was the case with the 2007 races. Easy access both from the city of Rhodes and from the airport, coupled with the countless options available to visitors for sight-seeing, food, shopping, and entertainment, have elevated Ialysos to one of the most popular destinations on Rhodes.
Rhodes itself, the fourth largest island in Greece and the largest in the island complex called the Dodecanese, is today perhaps the most developed tourist destination in the country. It is located on the southeastern tip of the country, 260 nautical miles from the central port of Piraeus, from where ships depart daily for Rhodes. The island also enjoys daily airline connections to the two largest cities in Greece, Athens and Thessaloniki, and in the summer air routes extend to other islands, and charter flights connect it to cities throughout Europe. Sea routes from Rhodes include connections to other islands in the Dodecanese, the Cyclades, and Crete.
