Good stay
Good location within easy walking distance to local amenities/tavernas/bars. A couple of hills on the way back and the old part of Vamos is quite uneven so heals are not such a good idea. Lovely village though, quite quiet and not touristy at all. Definitely one to come back to.

hill villa
We really enjoyed our week in Vamos and Octopus villa, with its stunning views, and lovely location. Communication with the owner, was great, and there was good info in the villa itself. The living space was a little smaller than we had anticipated, however this did not detract from our enjoyment of staying in this amazing area.
