Karteri Apartments



Karteri Apartments
*Attractive accommodation overlooking Fiskardo's delightful harbour*
*Sleeps 2-5*
*Plunge pool
There are many advantages in basing a holiday in Fiskardo, not least the array of excellent tavernas, kafenions and shops right on the doorstep. The attractions of the busy harbour, superb countryside all around and secluded coves within easy walking distance. The Karteri Apartments have all the above and much more besides. They have an historic connection with Fiskardo's often turbulent history, as they are named after the headland on which they are built. 'Karteri' means to 'wait' or 'ambush'. The Karteri headland, with its sweeping views of the Ithaka Channel, would have been the best place to post lookouts to warn of approaching pirates, yet still be within easy reach of a galley moored on the lee side of the harbour.	There are seven apartments in this well constructed modern building that complement the existing elegant Venetian houses around it. Karteri Apartments were designed to maximise the harbour and coastal views, by utilising the rising hillside. The apartments can be reached either by an old shaded alleyway, with original flagstones, that leads up from the waterfront near the Captain's Cabin restaurant, or by a short walk from the newly built car park next to the church and museum.
AMENITIES Tavernas: 3mins walk Shingle beach: 4mins walk Water sports: 3mins (Scuba diving / Snorkelling) RECOMMENDED Motorboat hire
The apartments range from spacious two bedroomed apartment to penthouse studios. All are equipped to a very high standard with fitted kitchens, cookers or mini-oven and the living areas are comfortable and well furnished. The roomy terraces or balconies are perfect for harbour watching by day or night. A connecting path and steps, lined with geraniums and shrubs, also gives access to a private plunge pool.
	Despite being so close to the busy quay, the Karteri Apartments are surprisingly quiet and secluded. The nearest beach is a mere two minutes walk away. Many others a little further on, including the amazing slabs of limestone dipping into the sea, immediately below the old Venetian light tower on the point, an excellent spot for swimming or just sunbathing. Guests can definitely enjoy the best of both worlds here.
