Huge thanks to Becs and Beauty Retreat, broke a nail just before my holiday and she stayed late at night so she could do me a new set, I would have hated wearing flip flops without my beautiful toes, the team always go above and beyond. So friendly.

Went for my first treatment and pamper session- what a wonderful establishment!
