Property information
Grandma Smaro first saw her house in Firostefani as a bride
Here she heard the cries of her first three children, Dimitris, Andreas and her only daughter, Katerina, and here she watched them grow. It remained her home until its devastation in 1956 by Santorini's last great earthquake.
Grandma Smaro took the remains of her dowry, a few black and white photographs, and left the ruins of her home with her husband and children.
Smaro Studios Santorini is on the Caldera cliffs. A small hotel with a big history, Smaro Studios has a wonderful view of the Caldera, the volcano and the gorgeous Aegean Sea. The hotel is located in Firostefani, a peaceful village just above Fira town. Smaro Studios combines hospitality and relaxation with the enchanting traditions of a beautiful Greek island.
