Doubtless Beauty Retreat is a beauty therapy salon at 18 Coopers Drive in Coopers Beach, in the Far North, on Doubtless Bay. The business started in Mangonui in 2005 and moved to Coopers Beach in 2017. It is owned by a husband and wife team, and the name reflects both the bay and the experience the salon aims for. The website describes the salon as award-winning, and offers a full range of beauty therapy services, including waxing, massage, manicures and bridal makeup. It stocks brands including SOTHYS, OPI, Pure Fiji, ECOYA, The Beauty Chef, HydroFlask, RevitaLash and Lily Lolo.
Customers praise the decor as warm and relaxing, the knowledgeable therapists, the manicures and the massage. One says the bridal makeup stayed on all day and looked good in photos. The salon is also noted for waxing, including Brazilians. Some treatments need a patch test 24 hours before, and the salon notes that not every treatment suits all skin or hair types. The website asks visitors to call ahead, as the door is not always open during the listed hours. Our pick in Coopers Beach for a massage and a relaxing visit on Doubtless Bay.
