"We had a very good time in Thesen island. Loved walking around and visiting the shops."

10.0

The location was amazing. The host left us a huge bowl of welcome snacks which was such a lovely unexpected touch.

The finger print scanner wasn’t always working for us to enter or leave the premises. I would suggest a scanning tag rather.

The view.

The ridiculous non-functioning security system. Lack of air conditioning?
