Villa vacation 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 was incredibly nice, friendly and wanted you to have a lovely stay. The accommodation was very nice, modern and clean. We stayed at Casa Calma for a month and enjoyed every second. Panormos is a very nice and cozy village, everyone is friendly and there are many restaurants and shops. If you are going to Crete, we really recommend Casa Calma and Panormos!

We were 2 weeks to 4 people at Villa del Mar, and were completely satisfied. Within the 14 days, towels and bed linen were changed three times, as well as the apartment was well cleaned. If something leads to problems, the response time was great. Yiannis had very valuable tips on site and met our restaurant taste exactly with his recommendation. Thanks again for that. Finally, a note about the place Parnomos, just perfect for the 4 of us, not too much hustle and yet everything is available. Even though there is one or the other construction site in the area, but it rather upgrades the place, it was not disturbing for us. So for us very clear 5 stars.

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.

We were 13 people and had a great time at this beautiful villa. The host was very welcoming, friendly, caring, available and responsive. Regarding the villa, it is even better in person than in the photos…. Very clean, ideally located, materials, bedding, services… quality! If you're still not sure... Go for it, you won't be disappointed!!! We will definitely be back and I will recommend it to my friends and family… 5 stars largely justified and deserved!!!! Thanks again for this stay and to your parents for the little extra on our arrival which was very much appreciated and touching... perfect!

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.

The villa is really nice! Me and my friends had a great time spending time there, swimming in the pool and having a big bbq. Thanks a lot for the stay

We had a fantastic stay at this villa - it was the perfect place for our family trip and we felt instantly at home. The villa is in a stunning location, with incredible sea views. It has all of the amenities you could need. Stamatis was an excellent, communicative host and helped us with great local recommendations. We will be back!

An absolute gem, we had an amazing stay at Maria's place. The house is absolutely beautiful, modern with quality all around. It's also super private with nothing but nature around you. Will definitely be coming back!!

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!

5 Star Villa with a 5 Star Service! It was just amazing.

The outdoor play area was very successful for the 3 small children . Thanks to Andrea + Lucy and the whole team at Kostas . TRAN FAMILY

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!

Very nice stay in this beautiful home. There were 9 of us and we had plenty of room for everyone. Valia, who I spoke to before our arrival, was very responsive and gave us very good recommendations for transfers and car rentals. Maria who welcomed us was absolutely charming and always answered our questions by text. To be recommended without hesitation.

We traveled with friends and babies (a total of 4 adults and 2 babies (8&10 months old)) to the villa to Savas & Maria and the villa was fantastically beautiful (even more beautiful than in the photos)! For our tour group, the villa was just perfect, we had our peace, could relax and the children had enough space to play on the giant terrace. Savas & Maria kindly provided everything necessary for our kids (crib, baby chairs, a small inflatable pool and plenty of toys). Cleanliness is very important in the villa, the villa was handed over to us in perfect condition! The villa was rounded off in the evening by the overwhelming sunsets! Savas & Maria were extremely communicative, gave us great recommendations and were always available! We would like to express our sincere thanks again for your warmth, hospitality and a fantastic stay! If we come back to Crete, we'll come back to you!

Villa looks perfect. We spend beautiful vacation there with kids

Beautiful villa, peaceful, but close to the beach and great restaurants! We had a wonderful time with 9 family members! Beyond our expectations!
