Chapel for hire, about 20 minutes from Clarkes Beach, next to Spookers, and 30 minutes from Downtown Auckland, you have it all here, fun and sea for the family, horror at night, and then a quick run into the City.

Do not worry the Chapel, has been blessed, and is great for a week, weekend, and has a private bedroom for a couple, a large communal area for the kids, and a smaller room for a baby. Has one shower, one toilet, laundry facilities for washing and drying clothes, Television and ideal for the type of weekend you would like with you, your family, or just the two of you.

On a rainy day, it has ping pong for the kids, next to Tennis Courts, and Basketball Courts, ideal for any usage.

Single night $150.00 or $700 one week. Minimium 3 nights for $100 per night. 50% non refundable deposit.

I have been asked for groupings of up to 20, but there is only one shower. I would need to charge more than $100 per night, and would ask for an extra surcharge of $15 per head, to cover the increase in costs for me.

Give it a try. It is about a 30 minute drive also from the airport.
