Beachfront holiday rentals in Panormos in Rethymno

we had a great week at Maria's place. The covered terrace is the most beautiful room in the house with a magnificent view of the sea. The beach is less than 5 minutes' walk away, but beware, for people who have difficulty walking, the slope is rather steep to climb. Maria is very responsive and responds very quickly to messages. Agia Pelagia remains a small seaside resort very well located to visit the north of the island. Beautiful discovery

Elena is a nice and accommodating host. We were able to contact her at any time, got feedback very quickly and she inquired about our well-being at the property. The place is very clean, well equipped and you have your privacy. It looks exactly like the pictures. The property is very quiet. You need a car to do activities. We highly recommend the place and Elena as a host! ☺️

We loved our stay at Anastasio’s! The apartment was clean and just as the photos described. The location was beautiful, overlooking the water and within walkable distance to everything you could need. Anastasio and Fotis were extremely responsive and helpful, always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. They even allowed us to check in early when we arrived to the city earlier than expected. Thanks for a great stay!

This was the best Airbnb we've stayed at. Lovely village with restaurants, a bakery and markets for most of what you'd need. On arrival the house had been generously stocked with more than we expected. Argiro and her family were very kind and helpful. Definitely recommend Iro House. Thanks so much Argiro, we will be back!

Amazing place to stay and Jekaterina is the BEST host! She was so attentive to our needs and made such fantastic recommendations everyday, which made our stay even better. Thank you Jekaterina! We hope to see you again soon!

Had a great time here! Vasilis was very accommodating and the place came as expected. Clean, great views of the water, and centrally located to the shops and restaurants in town. Highly recommend!

Jeronimo is a really great host. Very, very friendly and helpful. We felt very comfortable and welcome right away. The accommodation is beautifully located above the small Soudabucht with magnificent views. Two recommended taverns are within walking distance. Jeronimo's bar is also great and not to be missed. We can highly recommend the beautiful, simple but functional accommodation.

The accommodation was as described and we felt very comfortable. Lambros gave us a great welcome and was very helpful. We would love to come back!

The place is so beautiful and clean. The view from the outdoors is nice and peaceful. The scene of sheep eating grass multiple times a day in a small field under the pool is wonderful. (Photo first house) Maria, who showed us around, is so kind and nice.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful, well-kept, and lovingly furnished place. Everything you need is there. The host was super friendly and gave us some good recommendations for restaurants and the surrounding area. Upon arrival, the fridge was already stocked with drinks, fruit, and other items, so there was no need to go shopping on the day of our arrival. It was a perfect stay, and we would love to come back.

The apartment is immaculate, inside and out. We were greeted by Stella's kind father who showed us around the property. The kitchen and fridge were stocked with basic pantry items to get us through until we could go to a grocery store. We were celebrating a birthday and in response Stella had a bouquet of flowers and a greeting card set out. Such a sweet and personal touch. The beds were comfortable and the towels were soft. The washing machine was nice to have, especially with soap and softener readily available. The internet connectivity was fantastic. There is a small grocery store nearby (but the walk is uphill). Restaurants are a bit further. We rented a car so it wasn't a big deal for us. There is also a small beach a short downhill walk from the property. There are chairs and umbrellas available to rent. There is also a boat and paddle board rental on site. Overall, our stay at Stella's was amazing. We had an excellent experience and would highly recommend this property.

We stayed at Nikos place as a family of 4 ( 2 adults 2 children 5 and 6 year old). we had a amazing time and the pool and garden with sea views are just amazing. beach is also a 5 min walk from the property. nice supermarket within walking distance and the caffe 20m away serves amazing coffee. The beds were very comfortable which makes all the difference. I would definitely come back and recommend it.

Just returned from a lovely week with friends in the Lyrids Apartments. We stayed in Pyxis, which suited our needs perfectly. Manoulis and his family were really helpful and friendly, giving great recommendations for places to eat locally. The pool was gorgeous and, as it was a quieter week, we had the pool to ourselves on many occasions. The beautiful, sandy Episkopi beach was at the bottom of the road, with a choice of bars, restaurants and beach loungers. You really need a car to do the area any justice, as you can be up in the hills within 10 minutes, on the beach within 5 minutes and into Rethymno old town within 30 minutes. We flew into Chania, which only took 1 hour to get to the villa. We are already trying to sort another holiday to Lyrids - the location is perfect and the views are stunning.

We have just spent 10 amazing days at this beautiful villa in a stunning location. It was exactly what we wanted - privacy and no noise apart from hearing the waves lapping on our private beach cove! We just could not get enough of the views. The villa is perfect - all the mod cons that you need including really good air conditioning! It is very tastefully decorated and the beds are so comfortable. The pool was fabulous and the teens used the steam room a few times. It was so lovely to be able to walk down some steps to the cove and jump into the sea. The steps are steep so take care with children. The basement has table tennis and a TV again perfect for teens. Maria was extremely helpful and had suggestions for where to eat locally and what to do - she organised for some massages in the villa which were great and we thoroughly recommend this. Areti was on hand to deal with any questions or issues with the villa and was very responsive. We really hope to be back! Thank you.

We had a wonderful stay at Dimitrios’ house in Lygaria! The home is spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing holiday. The view from the balcony is breathtaking, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The location is ideal: peaceful and quiet, yet just a short walk to the beach and local tavernas. Dimitrios was an exceptional host, welcoming, responsive, and full of helpful tips to make our stay even better. One thing to note is that there are sound monitors inside the house. We’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing escape in Crete.

This place was exactly as shown and described. We felt very welcome, right down to the fruit basket and other treats left and brought to us. The location was ideal for our plans. The area is breath-taking.

A beautifully restored stone building in a great location. You're in the heart of the village and still have privacy. Meeting Pavlina and Johan I now understand the meaning of superhost They are more than exceptional hosts, they are exceptional human beings.

Great! Go for it! The accommodation: Wow! Clean, cozy, comfort. A magnificent terrace with a private jacuzzi that we enjoyed a lot and a breathtaking view of the small port. A kitchen with everything you need (fridge, dishes, cutlery, etc.). 2 beautiful bathrooms with everything you need (towels, products, etc.). Comfortable rooms. A living room with Netflix, for those who want to relax a little in the evening. The welcome: Wow! Harry was waiting for us with a smile, despite our delay (plane, car rental, the vagaries of travel🤣). On site a lot of things to start our vacation well: fruit, cold cuts, bread, water, coke and lunch (jams, honey, coffee...) The big plus: Thanks to Harry for his good advice (places to visit, restaurants, taverns, beaches...) and his constant availability and speed to respond during our stay. The place: Very nice port, a little noisy and lively in the evening. A good start to travel.

Absolutely beautiful stay. Enjoyed our time there and would definitely stay again.

5 stars are not enough to give Komissa's. The home is beautiful, historic and unbelievably located. It was not lacking in any amenity and if it was Yvonne was available to provide it. I cannot say enough about how wonderful my stay was. Yvonne is a fabulous hostess; every recommendation was spot on and she was kind enough to take me to her favorite taverna where we were treated like queens. She goes the extra mile (kilometer) to ensure you have everything you could want or need. She makes sure you see the "real" Crete, not just what the tour books tell you. While the pictures are 100% accurate and completely represent the home, u you cannot see just how centrally located the home is until you are there. And the rooftop! So peaceful and surrounded by so many beautiful plants I cannot wait to come back, now that I've traveled through Greece, i can spend my entire vacation at Yvonne's home. 100 stars all the way and i can't wait to come back to Ag.Pelagia! Efcharisto Yvonne!

We had a great time staying at the place. The apartment was very well equipped, in the kitchen was everything you need for cooking, there were even children's toys and equipment for the beach. Everything was totally clean and the contact with Efi was very friendly. We were very happy to use the garden and also the barbecue there. Thank you for the wonderful time we were able to spend there.

Anna was a super helpful host. We worked from her place for a week. The apartment was perfect for what we needed. It’s only a short walk into town - which is very charming. The beach across the road has crystal clear water - even if there is some debris on the sand. The road is a bit noisy - but the doors keep out the noise. Anna’s place is spacious and very well appointed with everything you could need. Thanks to Anna for the late check out as well!

We absolutely loved our time here! The listing description was spot on. No surprises as everything was exactly as described. The best part was 100% the beach! Its literally right in front of the apartment! Falling asleep to the sound of ocean waves every night was so nice. Agia Pelagia itself is ideal for a relaxed vacation. The beach is peaceful, very clean, and has a great mix of sandy spots for lounging. There’s also a solid variety of restaurants nearby, plus plenty of supermarkets and souvenir shops just a short walk away. Everything you need is within walking distance. I came here with my best friend and we had the most amazing time. We’re already talking about when we can come back. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful seaside getaway!

**Great stay in Rethymno** Stayed here for 11 days and found the apartment clean and fairly well-maintained. Though it's on a main road, the double-paned windows and doors do an excellent job blocking noise. The host was responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The location works well - easy access to the beach and nice sunrise views over the city. Rethymno's position makes it convenient for day trips around Crete, whether heading east, west, or south to the smaller coastal towns. Clean, comfortable, and well-located for exploring the island. Would stay again.
