Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Panormos in Rethymno

Such a lovely stay!!!! Mareike and Georgios was extremely helpful they organised a taxi for me and picked up in the little village since my husband was coming later with our car. The place was very peaceful and private. I thought there would be a restaurant but honestly it’s a good thing on the location there isn’t one because it made it very peaceful that a restaurant was not next door. Georgios even organised a BBQ for us which was a highlight that we could just BBQ at home. They were extremely helpful and provided us with loads of local recommendations. I would come back any day!!!!!

Fantastic old traditional house, well preserved and carefully modernized. Kind hosts eager to assist and give recommendations of nice nearby places to visit. Amazing view of the valley.

We had a wonderful stay at the villa, starting with a warm welcome on our first night. Antonis’ mother kindly prepared a thoughtful dinner for us, which was especially appreciated since we arrived late and didn’t have time to go out for food. He was also incredibly attentive and made it clear we could reach out to him anytime with questions or needs. Throughout our stay, he provided us with great recommendations on what to see and do in the area, which really enhanced our trip. The villa also featured a lovely outdoor pizza oven, and they generously provided us with pizza dough, firewood, and everything we needed to enjoy it. They even made sure we had everything we needed for a barbecue. Overall, it was a fantastic experience thanks to their hospitality and thoughtful touches.

The house is truly something special. The interior and design of the house is super tasteful and combines traditional Crete with modern elements. Everything in the house was spotless and brand-new. The view from the terrace was breathtaking and the courtyard was very cosy. We can only recommend this gem of house at Crete. The location is a little remote but perfect to relax and enjoy Crete off the beaten paths. We hope we will come back. Also the village where the house is located is so picturesque. Amazing local tavern with great authentic food are in walking distance.

The stay was truly perfect, I don’t even know where to start. The lemon tree right in front of the house, that had most delicious lemons that you can pick yourself, the amazing hospitality of George, the jacuzzi with the most perfect view of the sunset. We felt right at home at the place and we truly fell in love with it as well. The area was also perfect, right between Chania and Heraklion, perfect for day trips to either side of the island. I would definitely stay here again!

We had a great time staying at the place. The apartment was very well equipped, in the kitchen there 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 very much enjoyed using the garden and also the barbecue there. Thank you for the wonderful time we were able to spend there.

May 2025, 10 nights stay for three (2 adults, 1 toddler). Villa is really fantastic. Beautiful views of the sea and the bay. It offers a lot of space for more people (2 couples, 4-6 friends, 2 families) and for longer stays (storage space, cabinets and shelves, etc.). The equipment corresponds to the description and offers, even in the kitchen, everything you can need. Our highlight was the covered terrace. Our flight was moved up at short notice. A significantly earlier check-in was not a problem at all in our case. Stelios is a very friendly, helpful and dedicated host. We recommend him and his villa without restriction. Small limitation: the accommodation is a bit off the beaten track or the region is a bit scattered (mainly due to the geography of the area). Without your own car, it will be a little difficult in our opinion. However, there is a free parking space right by the house.

Everything was absolutely perfect, from the warm welcome of Jude and Andreas to the beauty of the place, the cleanliness of the house, its comfort and amenities, the attention to detail, the taste with which the objects were selected, the surrounding landscape and the pool! We had a wonderful week and will definitely come back.

Very nice Airbnb in a great location walkable to the port, perfect for ferry access. Airbnb was spotless, had a nice balcony and very nice lighting features throughout. Host was quickly responsive & friendly! Thanks for a great stay

The place was exactly what we expected and very comfortable and clean. The host was flexible with us for checking in and was there to greet us when we arrived. The host provided information to help us schedule our taxi to the port to catch our early morning ferry. The location was perfect with everything we wanted in walking distance.

Outstanding location, many place to eat and shop. It’s steps away from the beach and the roof top patio is spacious and beautiful. Lots of public transit but we chose to rent a car to enjoy the whole island. Would highly recommend this apartment. Host was very helpful.

Everything was as expected. Nice and responsive host, the place was clean with all the facilities as described. The location was a key issue for us - in the middle between Heraklion and Chania. We could easily explore all the interesting places on the island. I recommend Nikos place for everybody visiting Crete

Lovely apartment, well equipped and good walking distance to the old town and the beach. Really useful to have the private parking space and the host was very responsive

Very nice spacious apartment, clean and lots of amenities, with a large balcony and parking. It is in a very good location, facing the sea, and a 10-minute walk from the old town. Convenience store and restaurant within a 5-minute walk. There are several small, very peaceful beaches to the east and west, 5 minutes away. In short, everything for a successful stay.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. Giannis was an excellent host. He welcomed us with a warm pastry, fresh fruits, wine and bottled water. The apartment had everything we needed. The location was perfect. We had a car and having our own parking space was fantastic. We traveled to different areas of the island and it was a convenient home base. Giannis gave us several recommendations from restaurants to beautiful beaches, and they were all great. We especially enjoyed the terrace. It has a beautiful view of the sea and it is very peaceful. We watched the sunrise a few mornings and it was breathtaking. A highlight of the stay was Hamlet, Giannis dog! He was there to welcome us and visited us daily. We would not hesitate to stay there again. It is a beautiful place and you won’t be disappointed.

The photos do not do this beautiful place justice. The flowers and greens are so bright, and you have a view of mountains and the sea. Tina is incredibly kind and accommodating, and very easy to communicate with. She sent me home with some wonderful herbs from her garden - they smell amazing! She also treated me to some homemade Cretan cake she baked at the start of my trip. As a solo traveller, this was incredibly special and I am so grateful to her. Driving around the area is fantastic with so many beaches and hikes in the surrounding area. The space is very clean and comfortable! I hope to one day return.

10/10 Eleni is so sweet and helpful dont be afraid to text her for ANY support. The only thing I would say is if u struggle with stairs this may not be the best for you as it at the top of a hill that u need stairs for walking. If u have a car though that wont be an issue for you :)

The place is as described on the site. Clean, cosy, quiet and exactly where you need it to be. 5min walk from the central Heraklion lion fountain. We were very happy with everything!!

Tasos is an extremely welcoming host. When we arrived late, we found a generously stocked fridge and freezer. Fruits, jams, rusks and cold and hot drinks were waiting for us. And Tasos was absolutely adorable to make our stay easier. We really appreciate it. Her apartment is very nice , the jacuzzi and the beautiful view make it a rare find. We highly recommend this rental, even more appreciated thanks to the many details Tasos has thought of.

I really enjoyed my stay at Alex's place - clean, conveniently located and just as described on the photos. The swing on the terrace and a few other nice little touches made my stay extra pleasant. Communication with Alex was always easy, quick and very helpful and I look forward to staying here again on future visits.

Marianna’s place was great - we had a very pleasant time there. The view over the Mediterranean Sea is stunning, and the location is easy to access. Her mum, Sonia, kindly made us a local pie upon arrival, and she was so friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. There are several excellent restaurants nearby, and it’s only about 20 minutes to the Heraklion city centre. Highly recommended!

Fabulous attentive host. Light bright spacious apartment with a lift. Generous welcome pack , great walk in shower, large extremely comfortable beds and nice fresh linen. Large Windows and sliding doors onto two terraces , one with the hot tub! Sunset and sea views from both terraces. Close to bars and restaurants with Indigos our favourite just across the road on the beach front. We hired a car from the host and went on an adventure. Definitely the way to see Crete! The mountainous centre is fantastic and you get to discover other great places. Recommend Evita beach Bali which is just 30 mins along the coast. Truly a piece of heaven. Very sad to leave!!! Thank you so much for everything!

Great location in the heart of town. We had an incredible night staying here and being able to explore the local neighbourhood. Lots to do around the unit. We found parking within a block that was free street parking and didn’t mind carrying luggage up the stairs to the unit. The balcony is surprisingly private even though there is a neighbour across the way. Thank you for hosting!! 🌟 🌟

Great and very nice place with a lovely view. Close to the Lion square.
