Villa holiday rentals in Panormos in Rethymno

Absolute 5* property and host ! Cant recommend this property enough! Absolutely stunning upon arrival, the property exceeded our expectations even from the pictures ! Alexios is a fantastic host, made us feel welcome straight away and showed us all the details on the property, his local Taverna recommendations were great too ! Provided us with a lovely welcome basket with Local olive oil and wines etc. We couldn’t fault the property at all, stunning design and finishes, absolutely everything you would want for a stay in beautiful Crete. Wished we could have stayed longer in Alexios property, you cant get bored of sitting on the roof terrace or in the pool looking at that view! Some local Tavernas within walking distance that are very nice and worth a visit. Highly recommend this property and Alexios as a host ! We will be back to stay again for sure. 5*

We had a fantastic time. The villa is stunning and had just been freshly renovated. Everything about it is designed to maximize the beautiful views, the airflow, peace and tranquility. The hosts were communicative, kind and generous with flexible check-in and out. The fantastic pool area, stonework, bathrooms, kitchen, linens, sauna/steamroom, washer & dryer, game room -- all were top quality. This was easily the most beautiful AirBnb we have ever stayed in. It was a good home base for exploring Crete. We were also happy to save one day for relaxing at the villa. We were only a family of four, and the villa could have easily held twice as many. Would love to return one day. Made wonderful memories here.

Amazing place! We really enjoyed our stay. The host helped us out with some stuff (taxi for example) which was great. Really clean, everything is close, great host and a great experience overall.

Antonis va otroligt trevlig, vänlig och ville att man skulle ha en härlig vistelse. Boendet va jättefint, modernt och rent. Vi bodde på Casa Calma i en månad och trivdes varje sekund. Panormos är en jättefin och mysig by, alla är vänliga och det finns många restauranger och butiker. Ska ni till Kreta så rekomenderar vi verkligen Casa Calma och Panormos!

Wir waren 2 Wochen zu 4 Personen in der Villa del Mar, und waren rundum zufrieden. Innerhalb der 14 Tage wurden dreimal Handtücher und Bettwäsche gewechselt, sowie die Wohnung top gereinigt. Sollte doch mal etwas zu Problemen führen, war die Reaktionszeit top. Yiannis hatte vor Ort sehr wertvolle Tips und traf unseren Restaurantgeschmack mit seinen Empfehlung exakt. Danke dafür nochmal. Zum Schluss noch ein Hinweis zum Ort Parnomos, für uns 4 einfach perfekt, nicht zu viel Rummel und trotzdem alles vorhanden. Auch wenn es im Umfeld die eine oder andere Baustelle gibt, die den Ort aber eher aufwerten, war es für uns nicht störend. Somit für uns ganz klare 5 Sterne.

Wonderful villa, great location. Less than 5 mins walk to beach, note there are stairs down to the beach. Beds & umbrellas for hire, water sports & a great taverna. Village centre not much further with a few supermarkets & several great tavernas. We loved Captains House & Agkyra for the sea views. The area is incredibly peaceful, apparently there is an ordinance on sound, one rowdy villa party was stopped immediately. Suited us down to the ground. Village was super friendly & we felt right at home. The villa itself is beautiful & exactly as pictured. Ground floor bedroom & bathroom perfect for my 80 year old parents. Host responded immediately to any questions & kindly arranged immediate access after we had locked ourselves out. Recommend using the grocery delivery option, minimum spend EUR200 & a delivey fee. But we could have easily stocked the villa for 5 people & wish we had arranged this for our arrival. Trips - recommend Eva’s fishing trip & the Magic Train. Will be back!

The house and views were beautiful. An out of the ordinary sandstorm rolled in and the owner immediately came to clean the outdoor area. She was very responsive and attentive. The house had everything we needed to cook breakfast. There are very few walkable places, but if you have a car, it is no problem. We would return, it was perfect for our group of 6.

Nous étions 13 personnes et nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette magnifique villa. L’hôte a été très accueillant, sympathique, attentionné, disponible et réactif. Concernant la villa, elle est encore mieux en vrai que sur les photos…. Très propre, idéalement située, matériaux, literie, prestations… de qualité ! Si vous hésitez encore…. Foncez les yeux fermés, vous ne serez pas déçu !!! Nous reviendrons très certainement et je la recommanderai à mon entourage… 5 étoiles largement justifiées et méritées !!!! Encore merci pour ce séjour et à vos parents pour le petit + à notre arrivée qui a été très apprécié et touchant ….parfait !

Wonderful Experience at the Villa Elias! Our stay at the villa was perfect. The sea view was breathtaking, especially during sunset – a true sense of calm, quiet, and complete privacy. Choosing this villa was an excellent decision, especially because of the heated pool, which the kids absolutely loved. They enjoyed both swimming and playing in the spacious garden. The villa is well-equipped, with many useful items that made our stay very comfortable, including an air pump for pool toys. The location is also great – close to shops, supermarkets, and pharmacies. Highly recommended for families looking for a peaceful and convenient holiday with children. Wissam,

Beatiful view and nice downstairs appartment with own pool and yard. Parking lot had always room for our car. From parking lot there are deep stairs down to the appartments yard. We came late in evening and it was little bit difficult to get in without light on the appartment door. Pool was great for swimming and view fo Chania and sea bay just amazing. If you have lot of electronic devices with you, take a power strip with you. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet during our stay in April. Really nice place to relax and enjoy life.

Das tolle Haus, mit dem Pool befindet sich in einer unglaublich schönen, ruhigen Umgebung. Man ist sehr privat. Wir ( 6 Personen) haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Die Fotos sind real. Der Empfang war sehr herzlich mit frischem Obst, besonders lecker die Zitronen, und frischem Wasser. Die Küche ist super ausgestattet. Es ist ein Luxus, dass jedes Schlafzimmer ein eigenes Bad hat. Der Ausblick ist fantastisch, ebenso der Sternenhimmel jede Nacht. Restaurants sind in 10 min zu Fuß schnell zu erreichen. Christos und Giorgos sind sehr herzliche Gastgeber. Die Kommunikation war schnell und unkompliziert. Ein wirklich schöner Urlaub zum abschalten und genießen.

Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt! Die Unterkunft war genauso wie beschrieben – sauber und sehr gemütlich. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir den tollen Service: Nach einem Sandsturm wurde die Terrasse bereits am nächsten Tag gründlich gereinigt – das war wirklich aufmerksam und hat uns sehr gefreut. Kommunikation war unkompliziert und herzlich. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen – absolut empfehlenswert!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. La maison est très agréable, conçue avec beaucoup de goût, dans un environnement très paisible (et à la fois très proche du centre ville), avec une vue incroyable. L’emplacement est idéal pour visiter l’ouest de l’île. Maria, l’hôte de la maison, est très agréable, disponible/ réactif. Nous recommandons vivement cette maison

This is a 10/10 Villa. We have travelled a lot and this is by far the best Villa we have stayed in. We were a family of 9 (5 adults and 4 children aged 2, 4, 9 and 11). The views are stunning, the pool is big, all the rooms have private bathroom. Jacuzzi is also perfect for when the sun goes down! Theo was a wonderful host helping us, giving good recommendations and suprising as with some nice gestures. This Villa really is a Gem as the name suggests. As for the surroundings - it is 100% private! For me the best part was that there is a nice local village to walk to every night. There are some amazing Tavernas/Restaurants with delicious food and reasonable prices (also a mini-market). There is also a nice beach with a good restaurant and a nice cozy beach bar - it is only a 10 minute walk from the villa. And if you rent a car then it is a 10 minute ride to the Rethymnon old town, which is also a very nice place with lots of shops and restaurants. The Villa was worth every euro!

We had an incredible stay with our family. The photos do not do it justice. It’s so beautiful and so peaceful. There were many lovely welcome food and drinks that we really appreciated. We had many activities and family in the area so we were out and about but were always looking forward to coming back to enjoy the house, the pool, and the gorgeous view. We also loved the hot tub when we got a little chilled from swimming since it was a bit early in season. We made sure to have a day to just do that. We used the indoor/outdoor theatre one night and that was really fun. All the rooms and the kitchen were perfectly appointed. Everything was so well thought out. We can’t wait to come again and stay longer and have time to use the outdoor kitchen, the gorgeous dining room and enjoy the beautiful pool and view again. Thank you Evi for an incredible stay at this beautiful house!

We had the most dreamy of times at the villa! Maria gave us a warm welcome and made us feel at home right away. We loved her hospitality and proactive hosting, giving us tips and recommendations of places to visit in the area. The place provided everything one could wish for, from pristine looking rooms to hammam showers, a fine gas bbq and shaded terrace, glorious swimming pool, comfy sofa and a kitchen chefs would enjoy. The surroundings are to die for. Sinuous roads and endless sea views, unique beaches, but also mountain hikes, gorges and wine tastings not far at all (car is a must). Closest taverna has delicious food. Agia Galini is a short drive away and offers all essentials should you need to shop, eat out, find an atm or go on a fishing boat trip. Thanks again for a fantastic stay! We will be back sooner than later!

Die Unterkunft war genau wie beschrieben und wir haben keinerlei Überraschungen erlebt. Der CheckIn und CheckOut war super unkompliziert. Besonders Dimitris, unser Vertreter der Villa war extrem hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend, dabei aber keineswegs aufdringlich. Wir haben uns mit unserer Familie super wohl und willkommen gefühlt und können die Unterkunft wärmstens für einen Familienurlaub empfehlen.

Séjour parfait , avec du beau temps en prime . L’équipe de Kostas est très réactif et Lucy est vraiment adorable . La maison de Lucy est sensationnelle , grande , fonctionnelle et très propre . L’aire de jeu extérieur a eu beaucoup de succès pour les 3 petits enfants . Merci à Andrea + Lucy et toute l’équipe de Kostas . Famille TRAN .

This villa exceeded our expectations! Location, location! It is 3 minutes walk to the beach, 4 minutes walk to center of town where the restaurants, shops and tavernas are. The town is also beautiful and quaint. The villa itself is awesome. 4 suites with private baths. All balconies and pool deck overlook the water. And stairs are not an issue-there is an elevator! This is a gem! Highly recommend!

We had a truly unforgettable stay at Villa Le Reve. The house is even more beautiful than the photos, nestled in a peaceful location that feels like a true escape from the busy crowds. It’s the perfect place to relax, recharge, and enjoy the serenity of nature without sacrificing comfort. A very special thank you to our host, Kosta, who went above and beyond to make us feel at home. His warmth, attention to detail, and thoughtful hospitality made our stay even more special. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcome and well taken care of. If you’re looking for a quiet retreat with amazing views, a stunning villa, and a host who truly cares, this is the place. We loved every moment and can’t wait to come back!

Séjour très agréable dans cette belle maison. Nous étions 9 et avions de l’espace pour tout le monde. Valia avec qui j’ai échangé avant notre arrivée a été très réactive et nous a fait de très bonnes recommandations pour le transfert et la location de voiture. Maria qui nous a accueillie a été absolument charmante et a toujours répondu à nos questions par sms. À recommander sans hésitation.

Wir sind mit Freunden und Babys (insgesamt 4 Erwachsene und 2 Babys (8&10 Monate alt)) in die Villa zu Savas & Maria gereist und die Villa war traumhaft schön (noch schöner als auf den Fotos)! Für unsere Reisegruppe war die Villa einfach nur perfekt, wir hatten unsere Ruhe, konnten entspannen und die Kinder hatten auf der Riesen Terrasse genug Platz zum Spielen. Savas & Maria haben dankenswerterweise für unsere Kids alles nötige zur Verfügung gestellt (Babybett, Babystühle, einen kleinen aufblasbaren Pool und jede Menge Spielzeug). Sauberkeit wird in der Villa großgeschrieben, uns wurde die Villa in einwandfreiem Zustand übergeben! Abgerundet wurde die Villa abends durch die überwältigende Sonnenuntergänge! Savas & Maria waren äußert kommunikativ, haben uns super Empfehlungen gegeben und jederzeit erreichbar! Wir möchten uns ausdrücklich nochmal für eure Herzlichkeit, Gastfreundschaft und einem traumhaften Aufenthalt bedanken! Wenn wir wieder nach Kreta kommen, dann zu euch!

Villa looks perfect. We spend beautiful vacation there with kids

Magnifique villa, paisible, mais à proximité direct de la plage et d’excellents restaurants ! Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment à 9 en famille ! Au delà de nos espérances !
