We chose this resort because it had a wonderful sandy beach area for swimming and an included water park for the kids. Because the water park is private to the resort, the lines were very short even during our peak season visit, so each day my kids had their fill within 1.5 hours, which allowed us to enjoy the beach and pools. Since the location is very remote, the all-inclusive package/meals made everything so easy. We found the food to have lots of variety and great quality. Our room was at the very back of the resort, next to the water park, but we still had sweeping sea views, and everything on the property was kept beautifully clean at times.
Just 66 feet from the sea, in the area of Panormos, Panormo Beach Hotel has a garden with swimming pool, an a la carte restaurant and 2 bars.

We love the stay at the Royal Senses - we booked two grand sea view rooms and with Hilton membership we got an upgrade to two top floor villas with big terrance and private pool. That made a great start of the trip for us! The breakfast was exceptional with lots of varieties and plenty of fresh fruits and drinks. We loved the public pools too with one heated and one saltwater pool of sea water temperature to choose from. The kids pool was nice too and properly heated in the afternoon. The staff were really helpful and kids friendly. The service we received there was beyond expectation.

It's a very pretty unspoilt villages with a range of tavernas, shops and bakery. Also two beaches easy to access. Public transport not good, so best to take organised trips, there's a shop where you can book. Also a land train into the mountains.

Panormos is quite small town with two small beaches, lots of good restaurants, a great vineyard, Klados, in walking distance with vineyard tours and wine tasting.
The bus to Rethymno takes about 50 minutes and goes from the village every half an hour. Buy your ticket from local shops before you get on though. If you get the inter city bus from Rethymnoto /Heraklion it stops at Parnormo ,unfortunately it does not come into the village and will drop you on the hardshoulder of a busy dual carriage way to cross!

We wanted to chill out and relax on the beach, eat good food, not drive anywhere and just take everything easy and slow. Panormos was perfect for this.
An easy bus ride into Rethymnon if you fancy a much larger town, a winery that we walked to (just as well!) and a little train that took us into the hills. Wonderful :-)

I cannot recommend this property. Turkey offers a far superior experience at similar cost and travelling time. I believe the reviews posted are not at all an accurate reflection of the actual experience.

Panormos is a small village, a quiet place where you can find the peace to recharge the batteries. The village is near a national main road, very simple to get to it, it has nice tavernas, especialy to have dinner on a quiet night - Fanari Taverna is a very nice place to eat, good food, medium prices.

Quiet village with many restaurants and small beaches.
Quiet village with many restaurants and small beaches. We have been 5 times over the years and love the ambience of the place. However if you want a disco go elsewhere.
So many good restaurants. Many people return every year, as we now do as an extra holiday.

We have been to Panormo many times over the years, and I can say that here is the place to really feel welcome like at home. Maria and Nikos are super hospitable and eager to share their stories. Since the sea was not calm when we came, we truly appreciated the swimming pool at the hotel. The studio where we stayed was quite spacious (much bigger than others where we stayed in Crete) and super clean. They provided us with a cot for the baby and made sure that we have everything we need. Thank you! We will be back!
We loved everything at Aris villa. From the moment we met Chrisoula who gave us the keys and the moment we left, everything was perfect. The house is wonderful. The pool clean with sunbeds, towels, shower and toilets outside. The garden is huge with possibility of eating the fruits.
Chrisoula gave us many starters and even a gift when we left. She's adorable and so nice.
Even our dog was in paradise!
We will sure go back to Aris Villa if we come to Crete again.
Thanks again for everything !!!
The hotel is extremely well located and has all the facilities you can wish. Above all the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. We have stayed there for the third time and were never disappointed, we enjoy the quietness and the marvellous views, the attentive staff and the small extra’s (fruit and sweets in the room). Also the fitness program ( very nice lady as well) is of a high quality but is never disturbing for the guests who don’t want to participate.
This property is phenomenal. We were greeted by our house and she was so kind and even let us check in early and had our accommodation ready! We were in a smaller town in Crete, but close enough to walk to a tourist area for dinner, which was only 10 minutes away by foot. It was the perfect location to be out of the very populated areas, but still near accessible places to eat and shop. 
Great view of the ocean!
Great place, interior was pretty new and stylish. Feeling cosy and confortable. The swimming pool was perfect regarding the temperature in Crete. You have nice beach and creek minutes from the apartment. Georgia gave us a warm welcome, fresh juices, beer and ice cream, she made our stay even more great, so helpful whenever we needed her. Couldn’t say enough great things.
Very nice pool, beach access was a bit stoned, but nothing a pair of beach shoes can’t fix, staff was super friendly (thanks stellla and family) just be careful with the bus from heraklion, make sure they understand it’s Stella beach PANORMOS RETHYMNO, else they’ll take take you to the other side, happened to me twice in the central bus station….
The hotel is beautiful and staff are excellent, a true 5 star experience.
We really enjoyed the breakfast, with a wide selection of quality products, again staff attention was great.
The pools were lovely, being one with salt water! The kids enjoyed the kids aqua park. We also used the spa, which had excellent facilities and friendly staff.
The Villa was beautiful and very spacious with a lovely garden and pool in a fabulous position with lovely views and amenities close by Panormos is a lovely little town to stay in and there is plenty to do and see in the area the pool man was lovely aswell without being intrusive and came every day so the pool was always lovely and clean.
The apartment was decent size with a seperate bedroom, dining area, and a sitting area. We were on the second floor and had water views out both the living room and the bedroom. Nice covered patio in the front. The location was incredible - walk to everything in the village including several restaurants. Easy parking (October!)
Andreas, Eleftheria and Miri were so kind and helpful with anything we needed.
Our hotel room was very clean and tidy and great value.
Location was great and they had a private parking lot where we could park our car.
AC worked well which was much needed in the heat.
Really nice balcony with a comfortable lounge set.
In general this is a very good hotel with excellent facilities and environment. The rooms are huge and great, pool is really nice and well maintained. Location is in the middle between Chania and Heraklion, so it is a good option if you want to visit these two towns.
The view was absolutely beautiful, the hotel was very nice and very clean. The food was fresh and delicious but the best part was the staff! Stella was wonderful, very helpful and just awesome to talk to! Will definitely stay there again!
The hotel staff is really kind, and it's really important to them that you are satisfied, varied and very fresh food, pleasant and beautiful modern rooms, a cute water park, and a really beautiful beach strip.
The facilities were great, specially the cove and the pool areas. Great selection of food. For my birthday I was gifted with a beautiful cake and champagne by the hotel, which was a lovely treat!
Directly on the beach! Even though our room didn’t include a private terrace there was plenty of terrace space available in the hotel. Julia, the concierge, was extremely kind, funny and helpful.
