There are so many team building and event spaces in West Auckland to pick from it’s almost impossible to pick just one to profile here!

But we’ve got them all on an easy overview page where you can compare their features for yourself. 

Whether you’re after a vineyard setting like Abel Estate private venue hire, a hotel and conference venue such as Waitakere Resort or a private luxury events venue like Flaxmere House, West Auckland has got it all! 

This fabulous, privately owned venue is one of the best for team building events and away days, in summer and winter. The feedback we get from groups who visit is always the best. The service and the food is first class and the space to team build and play is unbeatable. If the weather’s good, then outdoors, around the grounds is the place to be. But if the weather is against you then you have a range of different spaces that you can use instead.

There is a full size indoor gym, upgraded from years gone by when the venue was a boarding school. There is a 100 seat theatre that has been stunningly renovated, complete with stage, twinkly ceiling lights, tiered theatre seating and everything you need to hold a presentation, event or activity. Then there’s the conference spaces too, which are closed off into smaller spaces or can open up into one big room.

Everything is possible at LaValla and we highly recommend it for an unforgettable away day.

For something casual and informal out East in a rural countryside setting, Turanga Creek is a great option for indoor and outdoor team building. 

For groups of between 40 and 120, you can hire the entire space which gives you full flexibility to head outdoors to enjoy the vineyard setting or stay inside if the weather’s not so good.
