Synergy Beachside Nudist Retreat KB 2 minutes walk to beach breakfast spa/ pool
I am not a nudist. I just needed place to stay and everything affordable was sold out due to a local rock concert. I was treated well and given a nice room.

Nightcap at Kondari Resort
Room was spotless and had been recently renovated. Loved the large 55 inch TV. But it would have been nice to have toaster and microwave oven in the room.
