Cario Car Rental at Atlantica Imperial Resort
Atlantica Imperial car rental with Cario Car Rental brings the car to the resort’s arched main entrance, so you can leave the sun lounger for a sunset drive whenever you like. Delivery and collection at the resort are included in your online quote, and the price you confirm already includes full insurance with zero excess.
Atlantica Imperial Resort is a five-star, adults-only resort on a sandy Blue Flag beach in Kolymbia, with around 350 rooms ranging from spacious doubles to swim-up suites and private pool villas, plus an award-winning spa. Lindos is about 28 km away and Rhodes Airport about 27 km, so a car opens up the whole island for two.
How delivery works at Atlantica Imperial
When you book, choose Delivery All Rhodes as the pick-up location and enter Atlantica Imperial Resort, Kolymbia as the delivery address, with the lead driver’s name and a mobile number that works in Greece. The Atlantica Imperial Residences and Atlantica Aegean Blue are close by, so we confirm the exact meeting point at the Imperial entrance and the time with your booking.
Landing late? Start the rental the next morning and let the transfer take you to the resort on arrival day. At handover, check the car with our representative and save the Cario assistance number. If the resort is also your return location, we collect the car there at the time agreed with you.
Why rent a car at Atlantica Imperial
- Resort days look after themselves; a car adds Lindos, hill villages and quiet coves on your own schedule.
- Tsambika Beach is about 12 minutes away, and the hilltop monastery above it is best climbed early in the morning.
- A second driver is included free, so you can share the longer drives.
- Lindos is around 40 minutes away and Rhodes Old Town under an hour – both easy evenings out with a car.

Day trips for couples by car
- Lindos by evening: drive down in the late afternoon, park above the village and wander the lanes as the heat fades – see where to park in Lindos.
- Tsambika Monastery: a small hilltop church with one of the widest views on the east coast. The last stretch is on foot, so go early and take water.
- Seven Springs: a shaded lunch stop by the streams and the small lake, about 12 minutes inland.
- Rhodes Old Town: just under an hour each way; park outside the medieval walls and stay for dinner – see where to park in Rhodes Town.
- Prasonisi at sunset: a full afternoon out to the southern tip of Rhodes, where the Aegean meets the Mediterranean, about 1 h 15 min each way.
Driving and parking at the resort
Parking is listed among the resort’s facilities – ask reception where guests should leave the car. The hotel roads in Kolymbia are narrow in places and shared with coaches, taxis and people walking to the beach, so take the last stretch to the entrance slowly.
For longer trips, join the main Rhodes–Lindos road (EO95) a few minutes inland. Return the car with the same fuel level as at collection, keep to paved roads and never drive onto sand or beaches.

Choosing a Car for Two
A compact car suits most couples: it is easy to park in Lindos, at Tsambika and in the villages, and it handles the narrow lanes well. If you plan several long drives, a slightly larger category adds comfort, and automatics should be reserved early for the summer months.
Many guests rent for the middle days of their stay rather than the whole holiday – one day for Lindos and the south, one for Rhodes Old Town and one for beaches and villages. Our guide to driving in Rhodes covers the local rules of the road.
