Looking for some ideas for where to go end of Aug for a week
I am 35 going with my GF, (no kids) not looking for mental nightlife just a resort with nice restaurants and bars (cocktail bars, comfy seating etc)
Like sea fronts
Marinas
or nice towns (lindos like)
Any ideas?

Split, Croatia maybe?
Was there last year with work and really liked it. Popped into town on our night off and thought it was great. I told the mrs when i got home how lovely it was and def on the list of places for us to visit together.
Meant to say, can't help with resorts though as 95% of the time we sleep in the trucks, (work i mean, not me and the mrs.)
On our hols though we are like you, decent bars, marinas, harbours, good food and no chav type 18-30 resorts
Sorrento in Italy is also great.

Can recommend both Croatia and Kos having been to both (well Kos 3 times) in the past 24 months
We wanted similar, although are slightly younger.
Kos:
Stayed at a place called Kipriatis (spelling) Maris although panarama is also good. 10 minute cycle to town for some late night drinks and a nice all inclusive resort. If you choose this I'll give you some more things that we enjoyed etc.
Croatia:
We did this via a road trip to Split bit actually stayed on a small island called Brac (Bol, Milna and Zlatni Rat) just out of there - Krka lakes are lovely although there aren't really as many resorts around compared to the typical destinations but we preferred renting an apartment (£160 for 2 weeks in July) and eating out every night. You may also want to look at Hvar and Dubrovnik although the latter too far away from the lovely historical towns of Trogir and Split itself.
Google pictures of the places I've mentioned and you'll see its amazing or look for my road trip write up on here ("meet the chav and maiden euro trip" or similar - cant link on phone)
