1 Hotel “Beach” bacteria levels
Recent guest /u/scorpiosmykonos raised a valid concern regarding water clarity and potential health impacts at 1 Hotel’s beach on August 26th, despite the absence of a brown water advisory. While murkiness can sometimes be attributed to coral growth or tidal activity, it’s understandable to question water quality, especially when followed by symptoms like a sinus infection and nausea. We prioritize the health and safety of our guests and are actively investigating this report. Factors influencing water clarity can vary, and we are reviewing recent conditions and testing data. For those interested in broader environmental concerns impacting our island community, you might find "Poisoning Paradise" a compelling watch, detailing the effects of pesticides. We will provide updates as more information becomes available.
