Absolutly loved our getaway from the city for three nights at Twin Palms. Amazing views looking out to the beaches and up the Whangarei Heads from the deck (and in the spa). Ocean beach is beautiful. We played a little table tennis, walked the beach, hiked one of the tracks (Need sturdy boots), relaxed and enjoyed the full moon while sitting by the fire pit. This was exactly the escape we needed.
We feel blessed to find somewhere we could get away to with our dog. Dogs are allowed on Ocean beach but not elsewhere as there is lots of wildlife that needs protecting, but this was no problem as Ocean beach was big enough fo him.
Our hosts, Kathryn and Kevin, are such kind people and we loved the daily visits from their wee dogs (Timmy & Vespa).
I look forward to returning again to this piece of paradise.
