Family-friendly vacation rentals in Panormos in Rethymno

We loved our stay at Maria's house. Arrival and departure were done without problems and very flexible. Communication with Magdalena went great. If you have any questions, a short message was sufficient, which was always answered immediately. On site, Maria and her little – very sweet – dog Rudi were waiting for us. Maria is a wonderful woman who welcomed us very warmly and with delicious gifts. Also during our stay, she brought us small homemade surprises over and over again. The house are beautiful and very clean. In the kitchen you will find everything you need for cooking, the beds were cozy and the view from the three terraces simply breathtaking. We enjoyed having a long and extensive breakfast on the terrace to the living room and looking at the sea. Although we spent two weeks in Maria's house, it was very difficult for us to say goodbye at the end. We would love to come back.

We had a very nice and sunny October week at Tasos's place. The apartment is as described in the pictures. We really enjoyed that there was also a small terrace in the front of the house. So you had sun in the morning and evening. Tasos' recommendations were also great. Especially the tavern on the mountain in Rogida was highly recommended.

Lovely home and beautiful views! Téo is a wonderful host - so friendly and welcoming. We were very comfortable and greatly enjoyed our stay.

Orgon Farm is a lovely, serene getaway. Located 30min south of Heraklion, it was a perfect central location. We enjoyed the baskets left every other morning by Manolis and his charming farm. We dream of staying here again!

we has an amazing time at the Villa. Beautiful accommodation and very spacious inside. lovely and modern with everything we needed. The pool was amazing, very clean and the jacuzzi jets were an added bonus. Anastasia was very responsive to any questions and was very helping in a situation we had to deal with. Highly recommend 😁

Our stay at this property was completely successful! Even though it was hard to find at first, host Dimitris helped us immediately – friendly, helpful and always available. (Best to ask for the correct address in advance.) Already upon arrival, we felt very welcome by a loving welcome package. The house is bright, stylishly decorated, thoughtfully divided and offers plenty of peace and privacy – ideal for families. The hot tub was a highlight. The location is great: beach, mini market and restaurant are within walking distance – especially convenient with a child. Even beach toys were provided. The kitchen is well equipped – perfect for self-catering. Dimitris was always available but pleasantly reserved. You can tell how much he cares about the well-being of his guests. We felt very comfortable and fully recommend the accommodation. Thank you Dimitris – we will be happy to come back!

We had an awesome time from the start until the end! The accommodation was so beautiful that we had problems getting the entire group out for little trips 🙃 Our host was absolutely lovely and always reachable. Thanks a lot for our wonderful stay! 💛

Casa Sofia is a beautiful 2 storey house equipped as 2 separate living floors but ideal for extended family. It’s up a steep hill above the village but a short distance (5mins) walk into the centre of Spili, which has small supermarkets, a few high quality restaurants and bars with excellent local food. Car park access outside house bit tight but we had a medium SUV and managed fine. You can park in village too if you need to. Hellocrete team are fantastic, quick to respond and solve any issues. It was a chilly week in Crete and they organised fire logs for the main lounge which made a super warm fire. Family of 4 age ranges 24-84 and we all loved this special location. We didn’t need one but noticed the baby cot was excellent quality! Unfortunately we didn’t use pool or hot tub but they were beautifully clean. We would definitely book again. The local people so friendly and scenery for walking and nature are stunning.

Maria's place is comfortable, in a great location. The two terraces are beautiful. All shops and the beach are a 5-minute walk away. Maria was very welcoming, responsive, and accommodating. We already want to come back....

We felt super comfortable with John and his family. From the first day, we were actively welcomed into everyday life and always felt very welcome. The room has everything we needed plus some extras 😉 Definitely worth a visit, as you could also reach some beautiful places quickly from there. Most important to us was the village location,far from tourist strongholds. Thanks for everything

Great house, had everything, even a ping-pong table fully equipped Delightful pool Extremely quiet neighborhood with very nice surroundings and very close to mini markets and taverns At the same time, it is an ideal spot for someone to get to know all the beauties of Rethymno in all directions I would really like to vacation every year in similar homes and such beautiful areas

Heike's place was super well maintained and had everything your heart desires. We felt comfortable and enjoyed our time very much! Heike was also on site on the day of our arrival and personally gave us many helpful tips and explained everything necessary. She was also quickly available to us at any time. Utensils for grilling meat and fish were also fully available. The surrounding small towns with numerous localities are quickly and easily reached by car. If you are athletic, you can also do it on foot :) . But even at home you can unwind, either in a hammock or a lounger.

We had a wonderful stay with our two kids at Stavros apartment. The house is very Cosy with a well equipped kitchen, nice bathroom with washing machine, but the best is the great terrace with a stunning view over the area of plakias! There are many nice beaches around which are easy going for children and a lot of good creetan taverns. We recommend a stay in this great location and thank Stavros for his warm welcome and advice during our stay. It is really a one of a kind airbnb! Claudia and family

The place is fantastic, and just like in the photos - a villa in the mountains with a beautiful view, in great condition with plenty of amenities, everything was clean and design was tasteful and spacious. It's just a 15 minute drive to Heraklion or 5 minutes to the closest convenience store, and Theo was incredibly helpful, form navigating us to the area to helping us make dinner reservations to some restaurants, and was always available. Perfect location, perfect service. Miss that place already!

This cosy villa was the perfect backdrop to a very memorable trip. The balcony offers beautiful views, the village is peaceful and welcoming, and we liked the convenience of being just a 25 minute drive from Heraklion city. We had all the amenities we needed, and everything is as described. Many thanks to our hosts Apo and Despoina for their warmth and hospitality! We had a wonderful stay.

Very nice location, nice apartment. Lots of space and a beautiful view.

We were allowed to experience an extremely warm and open welcome from Maria and Vasillis at the start of the vacation, the handover, the villa, the delicious and abundant welcome dinner for the first evening incl. wine, water and small snacks, were perfect. We got numerous tips on the surroundings, be it taverns, beaches, culture, everything extremely helpful and informative. The communication was exceptionally good, with immediate answers and active help for questions, we were delighted. The villa offers plenty of space, is very well equipped, even milk frothers and juicers were not missing. Vasillis invited us to go with him on an olive tree tour nearby, which was very informative and endearing. Both hosts are really very warm and helpful. We were completely satisfied and very relaxed - we can only recommend this place to everyone! Thanks also for the numerous gifts at the end, we enjoyed staying with you very much!

Absolutely amazing host and villa. Kosta and his office were brilliant and when we got to the villa we were met by Stella. She could not have done more to make our stay any better; communication was seamless, so many local suggestions, local produce left throughout the stay, the loan of a stoneware pot to use in the pizza oven over tonight to slow cook vegetables, honestly everything and more. The villa is exactly like the photos - stunning. Breath taking location with a view we all miss now we are home. The layout of the villa is excellent; it is beautifully decorated, the outside kitchen area is perfect and much used. The landscaping is wonderful, and the pool is gorgeous. The villa was meticulously cleaned throughout our stay and the pool and garden maintained to the highest standard. We had the most wonderful holiday; thank you so much Stella and your team for everything.

We had a great time. Good contact with the lessor. I recommend!

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we had a fantastic time and stay at Olive Villa. Panagiotis and Olga are an absolutely delightful couple as well as kind, generous and hard-working hosts. It is clear that they both take great pride in their home and also go out of their way to ensure the accommodation and facilities they provide for their guests are of an extremely high standard. We were hugely impressed by and spent a lot of time relaxing in the beautiful garden (immaculately tended) as well as in the swimming pool (very clean and well-maintained) and dining in the outside bbg area (fantastically set out and equipped). We cannot recommend it highly enough and dearly hope to be able to return in the not too distant future!

Lovely villa and garden in a quiet spot. Kostas and Elizabeth were very approachable and responded quickly to any queries. As others have said, the only slight draw back is the approach to the villa down a very narrow drive with a right angled turn which took some manoeuvring even in our smallish car. We got used to it and ultimately this didn't spoil our enjoyment of this beautiful property.

We had the most amazing experience staying at this Airbnb! The house was absolutely stunning with breathtaking views that made every morning special. It was beautifully maintained and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. What truly set this place apart, though, were the incredible hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure our trip was perfect. From arranging convenient transportation from the airport in Heraklion to renting us their car—which was spotless and ideal for exploring Crete—everything was seamless and stress-free. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Crete. We can’t wait to come back!

Amazing place, very relaxing. Beautiful outdoor area with a lovely pool. Marilena was very helpful. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning.

Wonderful stay if you are looking for an amazing and well equiped house in the countryside!
