Welcome to Eλin Journal
Your journey into Rhodes begins here.
Welcome to Eλin Haven Retreat — a seaside sanctuary just 200 meters from the crystal-clear waters of Kalathos beach. Here, in the peaceful embrace of Rhodes, elegance meets Greek tradition, and every detail is designed to offer you an authentic experience of relaxation and luxury. Between the golden glow of the sun and the whispered stories of the island’s charming streets, Eλin welcomes you as a private oasis — a place where tradition blends harmoniously with the present.
The name Eλin is part of our own story. Born from our family name, Ellinas, and the word “in”, it embodies the spirit of Greek identity, strength, and hospitality. Behind Eλin is Manolis Ellinas, visionary with a mission: to create not just accommodation, but an experience. A modern, welcoming “home” for those who want to feel Greece in an authentic and stylish way.
The villa’s interior was designed by GK Skiadopoulos, respecting local architecture while meeting contemporary comfort needs. Traditional materials and nods to island aesthetics meet modern furnishings, subtle lighting, and clean lines — creating a space where every moment is meaningful. The result is a place that embraces you — speaking the language of light, simplicity, and essence.
Eλin Journal is far more than a diary. It is a window into Rhodes. It’s our way of guiding you to the island’s best spots, offering curated suggestions and unique experiences we have loved and want to share with you. From hidden beaches and local tavernas to cultural events, nature excursions, and romantic sunset spots, here you will find a trusted travel companion. Whether you are preparing to visit us, already on the island, or simply dreaming of Rhodes from afar, the Journal is designed to inspire and guide you. We want our guests to feel the island as we do: real, warm, and full of authentic moments.
