User reviews
"Very nice. Lovely views over the beach. The menu is simple. We are here towards the end of the season so sadly this meant there were limited options but I have no reason not to believe other reviewers comments on the standard of the food and had we been there earlier I'm sure we would have enjoyed. It's cash only so don't be caught out. Overall I would say a nice place to go..."

"We visited Rhodes in October and visited The South Castle almost daily for lunch. The brother and sister that run it are fabulous hosts, the food is great (burgers made by their mother were the best) and it is so relaxing to sit and watch the lizards play on the walls or enjoy the endless sea views. We will definitely be back when we next visit Rhodes."
