An interesting statistic regarding all those areas and buildings is that mostly women were the original owners of them. The reason why is pretty simple. If you take a look at Santorini you will notice that one side is with rough ground and cliffs, while the other is with ground that was the best for cultivation. In this period what was considered the best was the second one as people could farm and get something from it; therefore they were giving it to the boys of the family. On the same time to dowry of the girl, her family was offering the less good property that the owned. Later on happened this twist of fate though as the tourism started growing and eventually the value of those places in particular is huge, as those are the ones with the majestic view. It is also no coincidence that in this side of the island are most of the Santorini apartments that the local used to stay. They were building their houses there and they would either go to cultivate their fields or – as the case is in Oia – they would reach their trading boats and work as captains or members of the crew.

Nowadays, many of these buildings work as hotels for the thousands of tourists that visit the island every year. The unique part is that some of them decided to maintain the traditional style and thus offer an authentic accommodation, while others have created a more modern style of suites in order to cover the needs of this kind of visitors.
