Crete

This tiny hotel with just five bedrooms is an absolute gem! It is located in the delightful, historic fishing village of Panormos and situated just 200m from the beach. Built in the late 19th Century it was restored only a few years ago to create an individual style property of great charm and character.

Villa Kynthia retains its grand charm as it has been lovingly restored with its wood-paneled ceilings, beamed eves, parquet floors and time period furnishings to complete this intimate five-room guest house.

Step through the ornate gateway and you find yourself in the enclosed pool courtyard, shaded by a venerable pine tree and flanked by a raised pool. This is the perfect spot to relax and have your breakfast surrounded by colourful and aromatic flowers.

The interior decoration together with the furnishings and the architectural structure combine to create a time reminiscent of days gone by. At the same time all modern conveniences (central heating, air conditioning, TV, radio, telephone, free wireless internet, safety box, refrigerator and hair dryer) expected in such quality accommodation can be found.

Each room at Villa Kynthia has its own character and style and caters to different family needs. There are 2 suites (Artemis – Odyssey) 1 apartment (Rea) and 2 rooms (Pandora, Nefeli) which all overlook the peaceful courtyard.  Each bedroom has its own character and individuality whilst retaining the charm of bygone days combined with the modern day comforts of air conditioning, TV, minibar, safety box and hairdryer. One room has a four poster bed, another family room can sleep up to four people and has its own tiny kitchenette.

The hotel’s high-ceiling lobby bar welcomes its guests for a drink to pass their evening relaxing and listening to music. The lobby opens out to a lively cobbled street where guests can enjoy a meal in one of the many tavernas situated in the area. A good cozy tavern, on the pedestrian street a couple of buildings away is very convenient for delivering your meal to your suite or the hotel’s pool courtyard.
