We had a great time at the villa. Super beautiful house, nice hosts who were always helpful with all questions we had. The view is amazing and there are no close neighbors. One minor thing: the wifi was not strong enough for online meetings. Overall, very much recommended :-)
A wonderful calming, healing location. We will definitely return, Everything was perfect. I was unfortunately unwell on arrival and Sophia kindly went to the pharmacy to sort me out. She went beyond the call of duty and I was so touched by her kindness. Well done Panorama!
Truly exceptional. The views of Souda Bay with the dramatic White Mountains behind and surrounding olive groves are breath taking. The villa is meticulously appointed and squeaky clean. This accommodation was perfect for our group of three families to include 3 teens who had the bottom level as their independent zone. The pool, patio seating and outdoor grill complex was perfect for our evening meals and card games. Location also perfect. Minutes from Chania airport and a few more into Chania old town for culture, gyros, and shopping. We loved every minute. Big thanks to etouri property management for their exceptional communication, anticipating every practical detail from transfers to car rentals. We so thoroughly enjoyed our panoramic paradise in Crete and highly recommend this villa and Etouri management company. Efcharisto poli! 🇬🇷
A fabulous week in this villa, we ranged from 16months to 60 yrs, 8 of us all told and this villa fitted the bill brilliantly. Etouri were superb and we had every whim ( should we have wished it) offered.
Villa Panorama just has every thing and more should you need equipment wise.
The small village of Marathi is only a few Km away with several restaurants to choose from, we had lunch there on three separate days in 3 different restaurants and obviously the beach is there as is boat hire (which we did - no licence needed - my son is 26) Otherwise we bar b qued every night in the outdoor kitchen. You do need a car I would say but taxis are easy to get too and complete bonus is you are so close to the airport and although you do see/hear the odd plane it certainly wasn’t an issue at all. In fact it’s an incredibly quiet villa. We all loved it.
La villa est juste extra et la Crète et les crétois très sympa
Il y a juste le carrelage autour de la piscine hyper glissant une fois mouillé ce qui a valu quelques belles chutes des enfants …. Sans gravité
Le ronronnement de la VMC était trop perceptible la nuit dans l’appartement du haut .
Sinon un séjour familial idéal pour nous tou
The house was perfect for a holiday of two families with teenagers kids: plenty of space both inside the house and outside, large pool area with enough sunbeds, umbrellas and chill out places for all. Nice large outside table with wind protection. Upper and lower floor not connected by inside stairs. Optimally equipped upstairs kitchen with plenty of cooking utensils and plates/glasses, did not use lower kitchen/living room.
Very easy and effective communication with Kostas and his crew. They took great care of our extra wishes such as birthday cakes and greek dance lessons around the pool…great fun, thanks for that!!
Overall fantastic place to spend comfortable family days close to sea and local tavernas as well as Chania.
Vacances très, très réussies dans cette magnifique villa.
Les points forts :
- les vues sur la mer à partir de la villa ;
- la cuisine exterieure.
