What can I do in Santa Cristina d'Aro and its holiday cottages?

Tranquil beaches, stunning scenic surroundings and historical heritage worth seeing. This is what awaits you if you spend a few days in Santa Cristina d'Aro, a municipality located at the southern end of the Empordà, next to Platja d'Aro and Sant Feliu de Guíxols.

The history of Santa Cristina d'Aro and its surroundings

Until the 19th century, Santa Cristina d'Aro was part of the core of Castell d'Aro. In 1808, however, it was segregated together with three parishes: Bell-lloc, Solius and Romanyà de la Selva. The good location of Santa Cristina, well connected with Girona or Sant Feliu de Guíxols, ended up causing it to become the capital of the municipality. The urban center grew around its church, from the 10th century.

What to do during your stay at a tourist accommodation in Santa Cristina d'Aro

Visit its historical heritage

Take a notebook, because Santa Cristina is full of essentials: At the entrance, the dolmen of the Dalma cave , the Neolithic menhir of Murtra or the Moros and Sa Tuna caves . It is also worth visiting the remains of Solius Castle , from the 15th century, the church of Santa Agnès which, although it has its origins in the 10th and 11th centuries, was demolished and rebuilt in the 18th century. Right next to it you will find the Cistercian monastery of Solius. Finally, do not hesitate to approach the church of Sant Martí de Romanyà .

Active tourism in Santa Cristina d'Aro

If you like cycling and hiking, you're in luck. In Santa Cristina d'Aro you will find a greenway, via del Carrilet , which occupies what used to be the railway line. There are also mind-blowing itineraries in terms of scenery, such as the route that connects Platja d'Aro and Romanyà de la Selva and passes through Santa Cristina or the one that goes to the Salenys gorges natural site. And, of course, if you want to enjoy the sea, you will find quiet and quite unspoilt coves such as Senyor Ramon or Vallpresona .

Spectacular experience in a rural house

We spent a 3-day weekend in this rural house with a group of friends and our respective families, and the experience couldn't have been better. The house is simply spectacular, even better than we expected. Everything was very well cared for and clean, and communication with the owners was excellent from the start: close, friendly treatment and always available for any questions. We thoroughly enjoyed the barbecue area and the terraces, perfect for sharing long meals and quiet after-dinners while the children played. Although we all live relatively close, the location took us by surprise in a very positive way: isolated enough to completely disconnect from noise and stress, but only 5-10 minutes from the nearest supermarket, which was very convenient. A big plus is that each room has its own bathroom; when you travel in a group, this makes a big difference in comfort and privacy. Plus, being able to leave the house at 5:00 PM on Sunday was a real luxury that allowed us to take advantage of the last day without rushing. As the only area for improvement, the game area (pool and foosball), although it fulfills its function and we enjoyed it, is the part that looked a bit more "neglected" compared to the rest of the house, which is impeccable. In short, a 10 out of 10 stay. Without a doubt, we would repeat and fully recommend it for group getaways.

Naturaki respond: Thank you very much for your opinion, Tomas! We are very happy to know that you enjoyed the weekend with friends and family, especially the outdoor spaces, the comfort of the rooms with private bathroom and the tranquility of the surroundings. We also appreciate your comment about the play area; we will keep it in mind to continue improving. Thank you for the recommendation and we hope to see you again soon!
