Home description
The apartment comprises one double bedroom, one twin bedroom (both with large fitted wardrobes) and a double sofa bed in the lounge area. The bathroom has a full bath with electric shower. A communal pool and barbecue are directly in front of the apartment. A private pebble beach is approximately 80 – 100 metres away, with other beaches within walking distance. Water sports are available locally. The small seaside village of Panormo lies between Heraklion (about 45 min) and Rethymno (about 15 min) on the north coast of Crete. Visitors have always been welcomed into a warm and friendly traditional atmosphere, which the locals retain to the present day. Panormo is ideal for children, not only because they are given a warm welcome in the village, but because there are small sand and pebble beaches and shallow waters. This authentic Cretan village with its narrow streets and bright geraniums is the perfect place for those who want to escape a little and enjoy the peace and tranquility of Cretan life. There is a good selection of cafes, traditional tavernas, a butcher, a baker and shops where you can sample the local food and drinks at reasonable prices.

There is a good selection of cafes, traditional tavernas, a butcher, a baker and shops where you can sample the local food and drink at reasonable prices. Panormo is the site of an old port using during Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine times, and there is still much to see from the past. The beautiful surrounding area is ideal for walkers who wish to explore the countryside.
