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. |
