Amazing Panorama and host

If you like an eagle eye’s view of mountains and the sea whilst being a 3 minute drive from the supermarket and restaurants in Pitsidia and 5 minute drive from the calm swimming bay of Komos then this is the place for you! Annette (host) and the locals are both friendly and amazingly helpful. We have had 18 trips to villas in and around the Med and we will be back!

Absolutely wonderful

Wow, what can I say, what a beautiful Villa. The photos do not do it justice. The surroundings are outstanding and peaceful yet you are only a few minutes away from Pitsidia itself with all the bars, restaurants, tavernas and supermarket. The Villa is also only 5 minutes drive from the beautiful beaches. Annette was so helpful and nothing is too much trouble, she was so welcoming and happy to share local attraction information with us. We cannot wait to come back.

An amazing villa.

Villa Panorama is located on a hill and lives up to its name, the view was amazing in all directions. The downside was a somewhat steep access. The property was very well maintained, and the outdoor areas were many and beautiful. Inside, there was nothing to complain about, the rooms were spacious and all necessary kitchen equipment and cutlery were present. Also, everything worked smoothly. We have rented different holiday homes in several countries over a few years, none have had the quality of Villa Panorama. And finally, Annette was very helpful!

Perfect parenthesis to forget the job

We now have the habit to spend few days per year in Panorama Villa. The view, the environment and the neighborhood are ideal to forget surprisingly quite quickly the day-to-day rythme of our jobs. We notice this time a huge improvement done by Annette and Dominique as they changed a window into a patio-door. This underline their will to take care of our well-being and to let us have the best experience during our precious (and too short) holidays. The tenants had plenty of advice to visit Matalla region, and they are really reactive and attentive to our wish. Hope to go there one more time !

Amazing villa, kind hosts.

We had a great time at the villa. It's very spacious, with decent sized rooms, a large pool and three outdoor dining areas. The BBQ area was also very good and well equipped. We enjoyed the incredible views over the mountains and the sea. The villa was very well kept and well appointed, and our host Annette was always ready to help and offer valuable suggestions and local knowledge (but also respected our privacy). The only thing to be aware of is the very steep drive up to the villa, I'd advise you use a powerful car/SUV, in a small car full of people and luggage you are likely to struggle. However the trade-off is well worth it, as the villa is perfect, and you wouldn't get such incredible views and a sense of privacy without being so high up. Thanks for a great stay! We'd happily come back in the future!

Great family vacation

Villa Panorama is a beautifully situated house atop a hill, the view are impressive and the photos are a true representation of reality. The house itself is spacious, clean, well equipped and safe for children. Annette was a very gracious hostess, she received us with milk and cookies for the children and refreshments for the adults. Her advice as to what beach to go and eating places were very helpful She came everyday in the morning to clean the pool and was instantly available to help us . The Village of Pitsidia was charming and there were many little grocery stores for everyday staples. If it wasn't so far away we would definitely want to go back, perhaps the biggest endorsement came from our three and half grandson, who burst into tears when back home he had to be told that we were not going to go to Crete any time soon.:)

Great time in Crete

We had a great time in Pitsidia. Our host Annette was very helpful. She exchanged phone numbers in advance so that we could easily contact her when our plane got delayed on our trip to Crete. We met at the meeting point in Pitsidia and Annette guided us to the Villa Panorama. The villa is directly on top of a mountain with a wonderful view. In the villa we found a file with suggestions on what to do in the closer environment. On the day of our arrival, Annette reserved us a table in a lovely restaurant in the city center which gave us a perfect start in our summer vacation. The city center is at around 10 minutes walking distance away from the house. There are several restaurants and a bakery in walking distance. The house also offers a good equiped kitchen and there are also several supermarkets near by for those who want to prepare food by themselves. Outside, on the terrace in front of the house, who have tables where you can sit, eat and enjoy the beautiful view on the ocean. On the backside, there is a garden with a pool and a place to for having a BBQ. We had a really great time.

Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, vor allem den großartigen Ausblick!

Schönes Haus, gut ausgestattet. Insbesondere die Lage und auch das angrenzende Dorf sind wundervoll. Die Beschreibung des Hauses in der Anzeige stimmt und ich kann es empfehlen. Einziger Verbesserungsvorschlag wäre ein größerer Sonnenschutz an dem schönsten Terrassensitzplatz Richtung Meer. Mit einer größeren Personenzahl sitz man daher meist eher hinten im Garten, wo es auch schön ist, aber nicht die spektakuläre Aussicht hat.

Beautiful villa Panorama in the south of Crete

We stayed in the beautiful villa Panorama in Pitsidia end of July, beginning of August. We can only agree with all the preview reviews. The setting of the villa high on a hill offers tremendous views of the sea, the mountains and the village of Pitsidia below. Being on top of a hill also means there’s a lot of privacy and it’s always very quiet. The only downside is that the road to get to the villa is quite “adventurous “ and you will need a good car to get there. It could be a good idea to put up some signs to get to the property. We used 2 bedrooms (of 4 available) and 2 bathrooms (of 3 available) and they were all spotlessly clean with air conditioning in the bedrooms. There is also air conditioning in the living room where there is an open kitchen which is fully equipped. Of course one of the highlights is the beautiful pool and the grounds which are very well maintained . There is also a large BBQ present but with the large choice of restaurants available we didn’t use it. At our arrival in the afternoon Annette provided for a light meal prepared by a very nice girl called Suzanne which we appreciated a lot since we started very early in the morning from home. There was also cold water and beer in the fridge. Thank you Annette! As we have been in the area before we didn’t really need a lot of tips of places to visit but Annette is ready to help you in any way she can. We would highly recommend this beautiful villa and would certainly go back if we visited the area again. Thank you Annette and Dominic.

Sehr schönes Ferienhaus in beeindruckender Umgebung

Wir waren mit 8 Erwachsenen in diesem sehr schönen Ferienhaus mit beeindruckender Aussicht auf Meer und Landschaft. Die Infrastruktur des Hauses mit Pool war komplett und sehr gepflegt. Die zu Fuß in 10 Minuten erreichbare Ortschaft Pitsidia bietet eine Anzahl von Tavernen und auch Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Matala und das Meer sind mit dem Auto in 10 Minuten erreichbar. Annette war sehr zuvorkommend und stellte interessante Informationen für Ausflüge zur Verfügung. Ein bisschen gewöhnungsbedürftig ist die steile Auffahrt zum Haus, jedoch für normale Autofahrer durchaus machbar.

Alles super!!!

Ende Juli wir waren wir - eine Gruppe von 8 Personen - bei Annette in der Villa Panorama. Uns hat es dort sehr gut gefallen und daher können wir die Unterkunft auch jedem anderen wärmstens empfehlen. Alles war top gepflegt und die Fotos im Internet entsprechen wirklich dem, was einen dort erwartet. Annette ist sehr nett und hilfbereit. Sie hält die Villa, den Pool und den Garten top in Schuss und steht einem jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Auch kennt sie gefühlt die ganze Insel und hat somit immer einen Tipp parat. ;) Die Villa liegt sehr idyllisch auf einem Berg mit tollem Ausblick, was dazu führt, dass man dort seine Ruhe hat und die Zeit dort abseits des Trubels auch wirklich genießen kann. Wie schon erwähnt, können wir den Urlaub bei Annette und ihrem Mann nur weiter empfehlen. Vielen Dank, liebe Annette, für die schöne Zeit. Liebe Grüße Christine

Ruhe

Mit einer Gruppe von Freunden haben wir zum wiederholten Mal ,2 wunderbar erholsame Wochen ,im Juni, in der Villa Panorama verbracht. Wir suchten Ruhe und Erholung und haben sie gefunden. Über dem Dorf Pitsidia gelegen, gelangten nur die typischen Dorfgeräusche ,wie Hühnergackern, Ziegenglöckchen oder entferntes Hundegebell zu uns hoch. Wunderbarer Ausblicke , ein prima Pool und ein tippi toppi geflegtes Anwesen und Haus umgab uns. Da wir zur Zeit der Fußballweltmeisterschaft anreisten und wir Fußballfans sind, wurde von Annette und Dominik flugs noch die Satelittenschüssel mit neuem Astra Satellit bestückt. So konnten wir die WM verfolgen . Nochmals vielen Dank für den super service von den beiden. Wir kommen wieder
