Most other clubs in AKL have gone downhill. Penthouse and SGs remain at the top of my list. Owner is respectful and good to chat to, all management is female, and if you treat the place like a job, theyll treat you fine too. OFFERS DAY SHIFT. busy times you have to share the stage with another girl, but it is easy and you can go for 2 tip rounds. managers pick all music. downstairs dances range from $80 10 min - 350 p/h. upstairs bookings are $400 - $500 all an hour (booth, VIP room, Shower room.) stag shows are 2 girls and a lot of fun. has feature shows you can be paid for like paint,bondage,fire,shower etc. security aspects are fantastic, very secure. favorite club in auckland so far

The best club I have ever worked in :) I started there 6 years ago, first time dancing ever... I keep coming back! I'm still here 'til june 2013. I made so many dancer friends at SG, the management are only women, Grant the boss is hardly here and when in the club he stays back or in the office, respectful of our work & privacy. Hours are good, tips are good, I work dayshift and I make easy 250$ a day without hustling... They take about 40% commission on each private dances sold but it's ok, no house fee, you keep all your tips and you cash them out the same day :) Security is maximal. Camera everywhere and great bouncers to keep the guys in line or kick them out when disrespectful or the rules. Dancers are mainly all happy and all friendly!! Great atmosphere, lots of fun. I cannot be happier that I started dancing at Showgirls 6 years ago, it gave me standards :) Recommended for dancers & customers!!!! xx Alice

This is a great club to work, the decor is classic, and the shows are the best in NZ. Grant is now owner and the management is professional and fair. The girls are very relaxed, and mostly happy. Although half of every private is given to the club which is a high amount in NZ. You keep all your tips and dances are easy to sell, so it easy to make good money, however you must be on your feet all night. Sometimes there are many girls, and shifts start at 11am. Most girls allow minimum contact but it's not nessasary. The price is about 50 dollars for every 10min, you keep half. VIPs are 250 for the hour. They have a private shower show for 200 for half an hour. Normally you don't choose your music and will have to share the stage with another girl. One of my favorite clubs.

kelly, the industry has changed alot in auckland. mermaids is also very skanky now, i think the only one holding up is the white house. showgirls, is STILL bad, too many cheap laboured romanians and russians,i guess they havent cleaned it up still then. its been a dodgy place for some time, its very asthetically pleasing, and i too have many friends there who say its a great place to work, but it IS getting nasty on the extras front..... i think they both are to be honest.

I'm pissed mermaidsnz. I worked at this club for 4 years, it's a hard club you gotta hustle and there's a high turn over of girls, but also there are the old girls. Ron gets alot of aussie girls to come over for a variety because thats what he likes. Extras are absolute crap. there are cameras in all the booths and private dance rooms, I've seen the manageress bust into a room coz she thought a girl was doing extras. There has been times when the club goes downhill because of the quality of girls, but seems the manageresses cleans it back up. Do I recommend it for people coming overseas? ONLY if you want a working holiday, I know girls from all over who have ended up living in NZ because they like it, but other than that I feel making money to take home is not worth it because of the currancy exchange. Thats when I go to Japan, less stress.

worked here for just a few nights. one of the skankiest clubs have seen in a long time!! it looks classey. very nice decore,girls are well presented, unfortunatly it has a very bad reputation in auckland. extras are the norm, stage shows are pretty graphic. havent been there in the last 3 months....doubt it has changed tho. heard management is pretty good. althought ron has a pretty shit attitude, once told my friend strippers were just " disposable whores" wouldnt work there if i was paid thousands a night ( some of us have morals!!) sure its great for the guys tho!!
