We had an amazing stay at the villa for a big group of 10 of us for a week!
The villa is really spacious with a lovely kitchen and two big balcony’s with great views (and sunsets!) the beds were super comfy and lots of space in all of the bedrooms - the bathrooms are a bit small for how many of us there were, but did the job all the same. There were many tables at the front of the villa, on the balcony’s and by the pool which was ideal.
We were greeted by the owners and had lots of raki inside, and she even cooked us an authentic Greek meal on one of the nights which was delicious! (Thank you!!)
The swimming pool is perfect and so needed in the hot weather, there is no shallow end but this was perfect for us.
We didn’t hire a car and there is a local bus stop 5 minute walk down the hill to get to Rethymno and other places, and on the main road a 10 minute walk to a bus stop to Heraklion and Bali beaches which suited us perfectly.
Panormos village is so authentic and lovely to explore with really good restaurants and bars to drink in. (Although not as lovely as Rethymno) There’s a winery nearby with good wine tasting too!
Only note was that there were people living below us which we weren’t aware of when we booked the Villa, however we still had an amazing stay & I would really recommend staying in this villa, especially for a big group of people!
