We arrived quite late in the evening but the self check-in process was really easy. The villa is very easy to get to, located on the southern outskirts of the town, just south of the main highway across the north of Crete. It's a five minute walk into town with a pretty Taverna even closer.
The villa is really modern, clean and comfortable, and has a well equipped kitchen, and bathroom. There's a terrace with a dining table and another large balcony on the first floor accessible via the two bedrooms.
When we arrived, the owner had kindly left a bowl of fruit and bottles of water which we really appreciated as we got there too late to want to go out for a food shop immediately. In fact the whole experience showed thoughtfulness by the owner, with enough consumables like dishwasher tabs and laundry detergent to not have to buy a huge box for a short stay, as is often the case on short stays.
The pool is a good size with enough space beside for four deckchairs, and including tables to set down drinks, books etc. parasols are available if shade is needed.
Panormo is a quaint town in places, with several small supermarkets and restaurants, bars and gift shops, and a beach. There are also attractions in the local area including an Olive Oil farm and a cave.
Highly recommended!

Belle villa identique à la description et aux photos du site et bien équipée, literie confortable. Il manquerait cependant un éclairage telle qu’une lampe d’ambiance dans le salon. Propriétaire et personnel charmant. Piscine d’une très bonne dimension et bien entretenue. Localisation excellente pour visiter la Crete. Village de Panormo à côté avec tout ce qu’il faut commerces, restaurants. Le seul bémol si l’on veut dormir les fenêtres ouvertes la route en contrebas qui est la voie principal de l’île . Ça roule toute la nuit. Sinon fenêtres fermées bonne insonorisation et climatisation dans les chambres mais pas indépendantes l’une de l’autre. On ne peut pas climatiser une chambre et pas l’autre.
Sofia luxury villas are exactly that, everything is thought of and of such a high standard. We really enjoyed our stay and our hosts were so kind with welcome gifts and leaving gifts. The kids loved the pool, everything was so clean and fresh. The main road is a little louder than we expected but by day 2 we had forgotten all about it.
Panormo is a lovely little town and has a couple of great restaurants, particularly Tu Steki which Sofia recommended. Avoid the first inflatable shop on the first road to the harbour, ours came apart after 2 days and the owner was incredibly rude and unhelpful.

Stunning, peaceful, private villa!
The villa was perfect - a spacious master bedroom and a double second bedroom both with their own balcony’s.
A very modern bathroom and kitchen with housekeeping every couple of days.
The villa was not overlooked at all, with beautiful views of the sea and surrounding hills. The pool was very clean, inviting and warm enough to swim even though it was April.
The town was a short 5 minute walk away from the villa with restaurants and shops, a short walk from the beach.
Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming-Sofia met us on arrival, showed us around and was on hand if we needed anything at all.
They arranged transport to and from the airport, everything was arranged so that we could just relax!
It was a perfect holiday, we were sad to leave and will definitely return soon!

The villas is fantastic, finished to a very high standard. It is in a great location with sun all day and a wonderful view of the sun setting into the sea in the evening. Both the inside and the outside areas are excellent. This is a fantastic place to stay and it has my highest recommendation. In addition, the hosts are extremely helpful, kind and attentive. They made our vacation extra special.
Overall, excellent.
