Hen’s Weekend Ideas

In days gone by, a hen’s night used to be the night that a young, naive bride-to-be would be taken out by her older, wiser peers for a night of debauchery, so she could learn all about what would likely happen on her wedding night.

Nowadays, we’re a lot wiser when it comes to that sort of stuff, and so the tacky old hen’s night of years gone by has fallen by the wayside. In it’s place, modern day hen’s use the event to have a great time bonding with their friends before life gets busy as a married lady.

So, if you are on the Gold Coast, or you are planning to visit the area for your ultimate classy hen’s weekend – what are some of the things you can do?

Of course, you need to start off your weekend with a great hotel – there are lots to choose from in all different areas of the coast – if you want luxury you could try the Sheraton Mirage at Main Beach or The Star at Broadbeach.

If you’re looking for something a little more quirky – why not take up a spot of glamping at Paradise Country, just behind Movieworld.

Now that you’ve got your sleeping arrangements sorted, you’ll need some activities to fill up your days. Let’s face it, there’s only so much time you can spend wandering around a shopping mall, or laying on the beach – so why not organise a day to remember by taking your group on a journey through the beautiful Gold Coast Hinterland enjoying some delightful wines and delicious food? Sounds good? It gets better – by organising your own private tour, you won’t have to worry about getting from place to place, thinking about who will drive and which places you will visit.

Your tour guide will escort you to the best places in the hinterland, where you’ll enjoy tastings of 6-10 wines at each venue – plus you’ll visit an award-winning winery for a delicious two-course lunch, not to mention the opportunity to take in some spectacular views of the coast and enjoy some secret spots your guide will select especially for you!
