Is it time for you to coast through RETIREMENT?

We’ve all dreamed about it – leaving the rat race and retiring to the coast, where the air is sweet and sunshine is plentiful. Turning dreams into reality might be easier than you think!

Leading retirement village operator Metlifecare offers coastal living options right across the North Island, in locations where the grass is greener and the sand is more golden. Debunking traditional notions of retirement living, Metlifecare believes moving into a retirement village should be the beginning of the most engaged and fulfilled stage of your life. And the dedicated team makes every effort to ensure the transition to village living is as easy as possible. The only difficult part? Deciding which village is right for you and your lifestyle! Papamoa Beach Village is one of several Metlifecare villages that creates a new standard of beach living, offering the perfect combination of coastal retreat and retirement community. Its standalone villas provide all the privacy of a suburban home, with the community and comfort that a retirement village offers. Just a stone’s throw away is Mount Maunganui’s Somervale, only a short stroll from the world-class beach and brand-new care home, and Tauranga’s Greenwood Park, which boasts sweeping views of the beautiful Tauranga harbour. If the Bay of Plenty isn’t for you, why not the Bay of Islands? Oakridge Villas is home to a stylish community of modern villas located in picturesque Kerikeri, in the winterless north. Oakridge Villas’ latest units are built to a six Homestar Design Rating, meaning less heat loss, greater energy efficiency and a reduced impact on the environment. For those further south, Metlifecare has something special in store. Located on the Kapiti Coast are Metlifecare’s Coastal Villas and Kapiti Village. Set on 18 hectares, Kapiti Village enjoys its own stunning woodlands, lakes and wildlife, while residents at Coastal Villas rave about the fabulous indoor swimming pool. If you’re one of the increasing number of Kiwis considering village living as an opportunity to enjoy a vibrant and active retirement, head to metlifecare.co.nz to find the one that’s right for you. We can guarantee there’s a home – and a beach – with your name on it!
