Great place to stay, would go again and highly recommend it.

My wife and I have recently returned having rented Roald’s apartment 22nd - 29th June 2019. The apartment is clean, to modern standard, well equipped and is perfected for a stay in Panormos. The apartment is in a great location and just the other side of the apartment’s private garden terrace is the great communal pool, that is ideal for both families and adults, as the the pool is separated into 3 interconnect pools of deferring depths, which are cleaned and maintained daily by the complex management company. The complex is located about a 10 minute easy walk from the village centre and 5 minute walk from the beach. Panormos village is amazing, it isn’t over developed and still had an original Cretan feel to it. In the evening the Main Street is closed off to cars and the tavernas take over with the tables being positioned on the cobble road. We would highly recommend both Roald’s apartment and Panormos. We hope to go back soon. Ian & Carla, Hampshire, UK

Everything you could want.

A lovely house on a lovely small complex. This was our second visit to this apartment and it was just as good as the first time. The house was clean on our arrival and cleaned every week. The pool area was cleaned daily, there were plenty of sun beds and the pool was always quiet. Communication with the owner is excellent both before and during our holiday. There was a bit of a problem with the dishwasher when we arrived and a new one was fitted within a couple of days. During the fitting the kickboard was damaged and the lovely property manager Dean came to measure up and that too was replaced immediately. Panormos village is not too commercialised with plenty of good tavernas, most of which we tried and without fail had good meals with friendly service. Overall we had a wonderful three day weeks.

Lovely apartment in lovely complex

We have just returned (yesterday) from 2 weeks in this lovely apartment. The apartment is well equipped and has all you need for a relaxing holiday. It is perfectly located on the ground floor with a lovely, spacious patio overlooking the pool. We loved being able to step straight out of the apartment to the pool area which was never busy (although we were staying out of season). The apartment complex is beautifully landscaped and kept immaculately clean. It is a 5-10 minute walk from Panormos itself and there is a small supermarket 100m away with basic provisions. There are a couple of bigger supermarkets in the village itself. Roald, the owner, could not have been more helpful and attentive, emailing frequently to make sure everything was ok and with helpful tips for things to do in the area. The whole process, from initial enquiries to the return of the 100 euro deposit (which Roald returned immediately!) Dean, the property manager, was also on hand, if needed, either in person or by phone. We would definitely return here and would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday.

Excellent holiday!

I stayed for one week in september 2018, relaxing and quiet place. Perfect temp in the pool, not to warm. House with all I needed, shop/grocery only about 100 meters away. Quick and good help from Roald, the owner, if there was any problems. (Phone and email.) Nice freediving (snorkeling?) in the sea! Only 100 meters to walk down to the sea. (Remember to bring some kind of shoes you can use in the water, easier to go in and out of the water.)

Family Holiday - Aug 2018

This property was perfect for our family of four. It is ideally located close enough to local shops/Tavernas and the local beaches and has all the facilities that we needed for a relaxing stay. The pool was great for the kids, especially as the apartment is located so close the pool and there was never any issue with sunbeds as there were two available in the garden of the apartment as well as additional sunbeds around the pool. It was never too busy and there were often quiet periods when we had the pool to ourselves. The owner, Roald was very helpful and accommodating when we were organizing our trip and provided lots of useful info as well as being flexible with the dates for our stay. He stayed in regular contact via e-mail throughout our stay to ensure that we had everything we needed. I would recommend this property to anyone who would like to enjoy a relaxing holiday in a great location.

About the host

Hosted by Roald Krumsvik

Hi! My name is Roald Krumsvik, I am 61 years old and I live in Stavanger, Norway. I visited Crete and Greece for the first time in my youth, but started coming back to Crete regularly over the last 15 years. I have travelled almost all over the island, but always kept coming back to Panormos. The Cretans are very hospitable and kind, and they make Panormos a very good place to live. In which I now have my second home.

Why they chose this property

Upon arrival you will find this new holiday home clean, fresh and welcoming with all necessary amenities and equipment. Walk directly out to the terrace from either living room/kitchen area or the bedroom, and enjoy clean pools for all ages, surrounded by beautiful gardens with flowers and palms. Walk 5 minutes to the nearest sandy beach with beach bar and taverna, or 8 - 10 minutes to the nearby authentic Cretan village of Panormos with sandy beach, restaurants, cafes and shops. Find modern city life a 20 min drive away at Rethymnon, or go for walks in the countryside. Or let the nearby travel agency help you find a real Cretan day trip.

What makes this property unique

Well equipped airconditioned summer house with wi-fi and spacious terrace in front of the pools. Quiet family friendly atmosphere, and only a short walk to the beaches and the village.
