Mehr Griechenland geht nicht. Wer einmal traditionell, familiär, griechisch abseits der Bettenbunker Urlaub machen möchte, ist hier richtig. Man lebt in einem Museum und das war richtig toll. Auch die allseits beschriebenen Ruhestörungen durch Hochzeiten haben sich bis auf einen Tag in Grenzen gehalten. Das war zu verkraften. Man benötigt unbedingt einen Mietwagen, da es etwas abseits der Stadt in den Bergen liegt. Das Essen war auch traditionell griechisch. Für die Frauen sollte man aber etwas weniger Fleisch, dafür mehr Gemüse anbieten. Alle waren sehr freundlich. Es gibt wohl angeblich nur ca. 35 Zimmer, was die Atmosphäre familiär hält.

This is not like a regular hotel, but a unique place to stay. As the name goes, it resembles a picturesque Cretan village and it is a pleasure to stroll down the streets. Since it is located in the middle of nowhere, I would recommend the half board option that includes dinner. Food is delicious, mostly Cretan cuisine, and the waiter’s attention couldn’t be better, both warm and professional. The swimming pool is the perfect place to relax. The only drawback is that the rooms could do with some upgrading, since the replication of old village conditions needn’t be taken beyond the guests rooms doors. This said, the room had a small fridge and the air conditioning worked properly (a must since it can get quite hot in Crete). I would definitely come back to Arolithos.

Nice place in the mountains Great place in the mountains, basic room, comfortable bed, needs some brush up - feels a bit old - broken mountings in bathroom - overall good value for money, friendly staff, excellent food, quiet room. Would come back

An Authentic Greek experience! A truly unique experience, it felt like we were staying at a friend’s place rather than at a hotel. Very homey and our room had a beautiful view. The restaurant was charming, with delicious food and we even had a group of excellent musicians with authentic Greek dancers in costume. Anther bonus - it was a 15 minu LP te drive to the airport. A great stay!

Ok pour une nuit L endroit est typique, organisé comme un village ancien avec taverne et musee , les chambres sont rustiques et pourraient etre confortables malheureusement nous avons eu une sdb dans un etat sommaire, la douche etait cassée et nous avons dû nous doucher au tuyau, les toilettes fuyaient ce qui laissait une marre d eau. Le ptt dejeuner etait tres basique et industriel

Village hotel adorable Traditionnel et tupique ce village hotel cretois. Nous avons adoré les ruelles, la place du village et sa chapelle, c'est magnifique. Arrivée tardive, repas pret dans notre frigo de chambre, genial! Confort simple mais on ne manque de rien, clim frigo salle de bain privée avec douche. Petit dejeuner tres copieux à l ombre sous les arbres de la terrasse surplombant la piscine. Tres calme. Nous avons assisté a un mariage tipyque c etait incroyable avec musiciens.
