Hens Party Venues in Mermaid Beach

How to Choose the Right Hens Party Venue

A Mermaid Beach hens can be casual and active, or a cocktail lunch upstairs. Club Mermaid offers barefoot bowls on grass, and Charlie's Rooftop hosts hens groups under a roof that opens and closes.

Ways to plan the bride's day across the two venues:

Bowls at Club Mermaid suit any fitness level, and a group can play for as long as two hours, from $10 per person.
For a small bridal party of six, one package covers the game, a platter and two jugs.
A bigger hens can move indoors to the club's function room for platters such as arancini, tacos and sliders.
Charlie's Rooftop takes a long table, half the floor or the full roof, which holds 120 standing or 75 seated.
On a private takeover at Charlie's, the food, drinks and music can be shaped around the bride.

Club Mermaid also has wheelchair access, which helps when older relatives join the celebration.

Barefoot bowls is quick to pick up, so nobody needs to have played before.
Book ahead, as the club requires bookings and the greens depend on availability.
As a fully licensed club, it asks groups to use the bar tab rather than bring their own bubbles.
Ask whether the function room is free after your game if the group wants a sit-down meal.

Rooftop cocktails and canapés for the bridal party

Canapés circulate during the function, so the group can keep moving between conversations.
Drinks packages cover beer, wine and sparkling, with cocktails at an extra charge.
Each function booking at Charlie's lasts four hours, so fit speeches and presents inside it.
Dietary needs are met where possible, so tell the team about them early.
