Location Overview.
Villa Nestor is located just 6 minutes away by car from Panormo, a friendly, seaside village, offering some beautiful sandy beach locations, ideal for families or couples.
Panormo is a tranquil resort, which has met a fast development in recent years, without however losing its traditional face. The wild beauty of the pure Cretan landscapes, the picturesque village, the beautiful beaches and easy access, have contributed to this development.In Panormo there are actually two main beaches and a few smaller ones. As the name implies, Panormos is a natural harbour with calm waters. The two main beaches are Limanaki and Limni. Both of them are sandy with clear blue water and ideal for kids, as they are shallow and well protected from winds. The beaches are organised and equipped with sun beds & umbrellas. Water sports are also available. The harbour beach in front of the village is the port of the area, where the boats tie up, this beach is unorganised.The village has all the facilities and amenities one would need : well-stocked mini-markets, post office, pharmacy, a doctor’s office, bakery (hot, fresh bread every morning from 9 am), various gift shops and traditional seaside shops at very reasonable prices. Further, there is a good selection of cafes and excellent traditional tavernas, overlooking the harbour and the sea, which offer a warm welcome and a beautiful setting to enjoy some traditional Cretan food, fish as well as international dishes. Rethymno city is just 20 minutes driving away from the villa. Finally, in panormo there is a bus station, with regular itineraries every 30 minutes that connects Heraklion and Chania cities.

Couldn’t fault it!
Firstly fantastic service from Think Villa, they were extremely thorough, friendly, and accommodating. We had a small issue with the pool filter, which they arranged for someone to come out within the hour and it was sorted. The villa is gorgeous. The grounds, even more so. It is a brilliant set up if you were two families / groups. The upstairs is identical to downstairs, with stairs connecting the two from the outside. We were a family of four with two young children, so we decided to use just the downstairs and the children shared a bedroom, not an issue at all for us, but something to consider. We were blown away with how lovely the gardens are, immaculately kept. And the pool was great. We chose this villa for the toddler section of the pool so our 3 year old could happily reach, and 8 month old could splash about. Unfortunately, the toddler section was about 2 inches too deep for our daughter to reach, but we had a float and she wasn’t hindered by it. There is a wall separating the two pools, which she had great fun jumping off of, and the baby could sit on splashing. There’s two tables outside which could seat 20 ish people, great for a big party! Not to mention no neighbours so you didn’t have to worry about noise levels. I would have liked a lounge area outside, the grounds are huge, they could definitely fit something in, just a small suggestion! Also be wary of ants! Have some spray ready!!

Super Urlaub mit leichten Mängeln
Riesen Grundstück mit schönem Pool, super angelegt, total abgeschieden…. Haus ist in 2 Wohnungen aufgeteilt, beide gleich ausgestattet und etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber grundsätzlich i.O. Nur die Bäder gehen überhaupt nicht, viel zu klein und duschen kann man nur in der Hocke, will man nicht alles fluten. Das Haus ist total hellhörig, man hört aus der anderen Wohnung jedes Wort und auch alles andere ;-)
