I absolutely love this place and I didn’t wanna leave. My room was spacious the meals were delicious the village and the pool are beautiful as well as the surrounding countryside. It really wasn’t that far to the city, and yet the area was rural and serene. I loved hearing the goats , sheep and peacocks.

Lovely alternative to staying in downtown Heraklion, especially if you have kids as Arolithos is a charming, self contained complex and is very safe with a decent pool. Terrific views down to bay and up to fabulous mountains. Nice outdoor restaurant terrace. Delicious wholesome Cretan food menu for both breakfast and dinner. Rooms are charming with balcony terraces and air conditioning. However, the only negative, the beds and mattresses feel like they have been unchanged for thirty years and are especially uncomfortable. Time for the management to reinvest as for me it was the only serious negative criticism.

Amazing stay, our favorite place while in Greece. Very whimsical and lovely hosts! Absolutely beautiful property! When checking in, our host saw that it was my birthday and gave us free chocolates. Cats were fun and the entire property was authentic and beautiful. Loved it and would come back.
