| Babis Hotel is in the traditional
village of Karterados on the Aegean island of Santorini,
just 1 km from the main town of Fira. Karterados is 7
minutes walk from Fira the capital. Centrally situated
on the island, the area starts from the main road that
leads to Fira and reaches all the way down to the beach
and the east coast of Santorini. |
|
  |
| The traditional village of
Karterados is built beside a stream in a ravine. Its
existence is recorded back to the 17th century. The
original dwellings are cave houses built deep into the
rock face. During the 19th century, it was one of the
large sea captain villages on the island. The name of
the village comes from the Greek word 'karteri' =
waiting point or ambush point, probably because ambushes
were set to trap marauding pirates. |

The village square has a
traditional windmill and a memorial plaque to
commemorate those who died in the Second World War. On
the left hand side as you leave the square, the road
curves sharply to the left, and there you will discover
the 'Steps of Galaios'. Barely visible from the main
road is a small neighbourhood of cobbled streets,
Captains houses and cave houses built into the
rock.
The shops are open all year round, since
Karterados also has a considerable number of permanent
residents. |
