Closest to the city, Faith was a wonderful host, the kayak added value, good facilities, and clean
Minimal toiletries provided, no shampoo.

Location was great, very safe and close to the town
The Staircase, the concrete floor had some sort of waxy finish which we thought was very dangerous. If you had socks on it was like a skating rink. Lots of tiny ants as well, not that we minded them but some people might.

The whole estate is exceptionally beautiful. The unit itself is also extraordinary.
For a self catering facility,I think it would be good for the place to have basics like salt,pepper and milk. I did not see these there. But this does not take away from the beauty of the place and the great service from Faith.

The accommodation was fantastic. We loved the views and being right on the water. The house is very well equipped with everything we needed. It was a real luxury and treat to stay here. Hope to visit again one day.

Wonderful
Very big and stylish house with 2 big sleeping room. Fully equipped kitchen and nice cosy living room. Very close (less than 100m) to shops and restaurats of Thesen Island
Access to gated community is complicated and the biometric access system did not work properly.
