During our trip there in 2010, staying in Pefkos, we visited:

Seven Springs
Tsambika Beach
Kritinia Cstle
Kamiros (ruins)
Profitis Ilias
Asklipio
Prasonisi
Petaloudes (Valley of the Butterflies)
Ialyssos (ancient city)
Lindos (town & Acropolis)
Rhodes Town
Siana (church)
Monolithos (castle)
Glystra (beach)

If you Google that lot, you'll be able to see whether or not it's your kind of thing. If you want any further (and more specific) information, just ask.

And when we were there (mid-August) it was incredibly hot, and very humid too - even the waiters in the outdoor restaurants were struggling because it was still 28+ degrees in the late evening.

We got back from Rhodes a few weeks ago and did exactly the same stuff... I'd highly recommend Siana, which is a lovely little village to visit. Lots of locally-produced honey of all varieties, olive oil and Souma to buy there, too. Valley of the butterflies is also nice (but quite tiring on a hot day if you want to see it all).

Worth going to Lindos and especially Rhodes (old town). Rhodes old town is beautiful and I wish we'd spent more time there (we left that till the end of the holiday and only spent a day there).

Have fun.

Kalithea is great for snorkelling
