We feel so lucky to have spent the week at Twin Farms. We happened to be here during a super rainy spell, and the cottage served as a cozy refuge where we could truly rest and decompress. We so appreciate the craftsmanship, the tasteful decorations and the attention to detail (hello, electric tea kettle!) The well-cared-for gardens and vibrant (and vocal) birdlife made us feel like we were in a true island paradise.

Vacation in paradise

We stayed for two weeks and did some tourist stuff and also joined in on some local activities. The accommodation was wonderful. Mario was particularly helpful and checked in on us regularly to be sure all our needs were met. Fabulous time and look forward to returning!

Akoha all. It appears from Tiffany's written review that she and her spouse really enjoyed their stay at Twin Hearts. She had indicated that she looks forward to returning. Of course, she is welcome to come back and enjoy the unique and wonderful accommodation that is Twin Hearts. Why she indicated a 4 star review, instead of 5, is beyond me. Perhaps a typo?

Everything about this stay was perfect. Easy to get in, private, peaceful, heavenly abode. Will go back again and hope to stay for a much longer time. 4 nights was not enough. Hope to make it to a poker night some time in the future, or farm ball because that looked like a blast!

Lovely private “cabin” with hot tub that was so appreciated after a couple of hiking days. The pick up and drop off at the airport ensured a smooth check in and departure.

Happy to have contributed to your memorable vacation. When you return, please be sure to try and book at least 3 months in advance to have the greatest chance of availability. We occasionally have slots open from immediate to that 90 day window, but your chances of securing firm dates as we close in toward the present become slimmer and slimmer. Thanks for being considerate guests and see you next time around!

Exquisite, peaceful, cozy, efficient cottage

Absolutely amazing. The owners are great. The property is beautiful. Its an oasis within itself. A cute little beach within minutes where you can swim in the ocean or in a cool pristine river. Well worth the stay.
