Lovely villa with beautiful views!
We had a fantastic stay in Roumeli. The villa was perfect for our family of four and we especially loved the beautiful views and the pool. The villa is on the edge of a village looking out over olive groves. Very serene and peaceful. We found the beaches at Bali (15 min) were great for kids and teens and the port at Panormos (5min) was a lovely spot for dinner watching the sunset. It was great to have aircon in both bedrooms too and the house had every convenience we could need for a relaxing stay (dishwasher etc). Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday!

Perfect spot for relaxation and exploring area
Located in silent area on the edge of small village with stunning views facing olive trees and mountains in the background. We loved the different terasses and the pool where our children were alot.The owner was easy to reach and very helpful. The village Roumeli is very "local" with not many tourists, but small authentic kafenion and within walking distance a local taverna, with good food and stunning sunset view. About 5 minuttes in car from there, the bigger Panormo with nice city-beach, good food everywhere and a calm "not touristy" mood. We loved to come there and it became "our" town. The location is pretty central for sightseeing both the big attractions like Knossos, Chania, Retymno, Spinalonga, but also to roam about on the coastline, mountains villages, food markets and monasteries finding authentic local spots with good tavernas and friendly people. Will highly recommend this:-)

About the host

Hosted by Chris Thorn

Host profile image
We have owned the house for over 15 years from new and regularly holiday at the house with our 2 children. Both have had the first summer holidays at Crete at less than a year old! I prepare the house every Spring for guests and make sure everything is in place so you can enjoy a lovely, relaxing stay. If there any issues our neighbours Stefanos and Cheryl are on hand to help.

Why they chose this property

The house is a perfect location, overlooking an Olive grove but 5 minutes drive to the beach and the pretty village of Panormos, pottery village of Margarites, Bali with five beaches and inflatables for aqua fun and Melidoni caves and close to the lovely and lively town of Rethymno. Further afield but still less than an hour's drive, you can visit the Knossos palace, Waterparks, the Samaria gorge or the Acquarium.

You can reach the house within an hour from the airports at Heraklion and Chania.

The property itself is a home from home with 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, outside and inside sofas, dinning and a private pool and terraced gardens featuring Orange and Lemon trees.

I don't know about you but I also like my modern conveniences, so there is WiFi, Blu'ray player, Flat screen, Multi-room speakers, Netflix and Spotify available! As well as all the gadgets you have at home in the Kitchen!

What makes this property unique

Just sit on the front or side balcony watching birds of prey circling high above as the sun rises or the sets over the Olive Grove amd watch the light change, it's magical!
