Built in the late 80's, it has been purposely designed to reproduce an authentic Cretan village and much care has been taken to recreate the atmosphere of times gone by. Dazzling white houses with pretty turquoise windows host several old-fashioned shops, including a blacksmith. In the bedrooms, modern amenities are cleverly blended with traditional . The local taverna organises Cretan nights with mouthwatering Greek food and folk dances. Water sports enthusiasts are spoiled for choice at Arolithos. They can try their hand at a wide range of activities, including jet skiing and para gliding.
