The House is a travel in time. Initially it was probably built around 1780, since this village, one of the oldest, was the only Port of Santorini, hence the name "old Port Fira". The ceilings are very high, about 4m., the walls thick & the internal lofts served as separation living/sleeping. This open-plan logic is preserved. The village is crowded in the mornings, 8:00-12:00, loose 12:00-16:00, very quiet the rest of the day & luminous at night. 2' by cable car or 20' by donkey/foot from Fira.
