Living Option | Best For | Notes |
Retirement villas | Independent retirees wanting more space and low-maintenance living | Available at selected communities such as Geelong Grove, Willandra Bungalows and Peninsula Grange |
Retirement apartments | People wanting secure, apartment-style retirement living | Available in selected urban and village settings |
Serviced apartments | Residents wanting extra day-to-day support | Listed at selected communities such as Willandra Village, Mt Eymard and Greglea |
Aged care residences | People needing higher levels of care | Australian Unity operates aged care residences; access depends on eligibility and availability |
Home and disability services | People wanting support outside or alongside retirement living | Available through Australian Unity service channels, subject to location and eligibility |
Aged care access should not be assumed at every retirement community; you should confirm services, assessment requirements and availability with the specific Australian Unity location.
The cost of living in an Australian Unity retirement community depends on the location, home type, contract model, available services and current vacancy.
Villages.com.au listings show a wide price range across Australian Unity communities, from lower-priced serviced apartment or one-bedroom options to premium villas and apartments in high-demand locations.
Cost Type | What It Covers | What to Check |
Entry price | The upfront price or payment to move into the retirement community home | Current listing price, home type and contract model |
Ongoing village fees | Village services, shared facilities and maintenance | Amount, inclusions and review process |
Exit or departure fees | Fees that may apply when leaving the community | Calculation method and contract terms |
Care and support costs | Aged care, assisted living, home services or disability support if used | Eligibility, funding, inclusions and separate fees |
Before signing, seek independent legal and financial advice so you understand entry costs, ongoing charges, exit fees and any aged care, assisted living or home service costs.
Australian Unity retirement communities are designed to support independence, connection and wellbeing, with services that can adapt as needs change.
Villages.com.au listings mention amenities such as on-site managers, resident committees, medical alert systems, CCTV security, cafes, hairdressers, beauty salons, village buses, bars, vegetable gardens, high-speed broadband, storage for boats or caravans and walkable access to shops or transport.
