Castaways Resort

Castaways Resort sits on the cliffs above Karioitahi Beach near Waiuku, on the coast south west of Auckland. The clifftop position and the long black sand beach below give weddings here a genuinely coastal setting. Couples marry on the clifftop with the ocean in view, then move to a reception timed to catch the sunset, taking up to around a hundred and twenty guests. A day spa and activities sit alongside the wedding spaces. On site accommodation sleeps up to eighty across chalets and studios, most with ocean views, so guests can stay the night. It suits couples who want a coastal wedding and a whole weekend away, all in the one spot.
