We had the most wonderful stay at Aris Villa. Chrisoula was a very caring host. The villa is just a 10 minute walk into the beautiful town of Panormos. We enjoyed meals at The Locus, lunch at Vinzi Cafe and cocktails at the Olive Tree. We hired a car for 3 days and visited Rethymno, the Baja beach club as well as a trip over the mountains. The swimming pool at the villa was a welcome place to cool off after a hot day! The sounds of the road is audible as others have said but it doesn’t detract from the villa. Wholeheartedly recommend this villa for a great stay with friends or family.
