Perched on the hillside, overlooking the glittering Sea of Crete, this no-fuss villa guarantees utter relaxation. Inside, it’s all natural tones and soft colours. There’s a living area for both entertaining and relaxing and a fully-equipped kitchen with everything you need for rustling up Cretan dishes. Begin your mornings with a coffee on the terrace before enjoying a leisurely swim in the private pool or an invigorating workout in the gym. After a slap-up barbecue lunch, slap on your suncream and explore your surroundings. Mosey into the heart of Panormo village for its seaside tavernas and traditional restaurants then while away the hours on the nearby sandy beach. If you’re feeling curious, jump in the car and head west to Rethymno, renowned for its Venetian old town and star-shaped Fortezza.
