RetireAustralia owns and operates retirement communities across New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia, offering independent living, serviced apartments and care options in selected villages. Here we explain RetireAustralia locations, living options, costs, amenities and key considerations, helping you compare RetireAustralia communities on villages.com.au and choose the right retirement village.
RetireAustralia is one of Australia’s largest privately owned retirement village owners, operators and developers.
Since 2006, RetireAustralia has supported residents to lead secure, independent and fulfilled lives within the communities they choose to call home.
RetireAustralia’s official site says it owns and operates retirement villages in 30 unique locations across New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia.
Its communities range from city to country to coast, with homes and services designed to support independence, security and connection.
RetireAustralia villages listed on villages.com.au are located across New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia.
The villages.com.au operator page includes both retirement village listings and selected aged care facility information, so it’s a good idea to check whether each listing is independent living, serviced apartment accommodation or care-related.
State | Example Locations | Living Options |
NSW | Normanhurst, Erina, Tumbi Umbi, Forresters Beach, Toormina, Armidale, Boambee, Belrose | Villas, apartments, independent living units and serviced apartments in selected villages |
QLD | Miami, Birkdale, Mount Warren Park, Cleveland, Newstead, Boondall, Tarragindi | Retirement villages, villas, apartments and selected support options |
SA | Broadview, Kilkenny, Hope Valley, Mount Barker, Glengowrie, Magill, Myrtle Bank, Hackham West | Retirement villages, serviced apartments and selected co-located care |
Availability, prices, dwelling numbers and care or support options vary by village, so it’s a good idea to check each villages.com.au listing before enquiring.
RetireAustralia offers independent retirement living across villages with villas, apartments, independent living units and serviced apartments depending on the community.
Living Option | Best For | Notes |
Independent living units | Retirees who want low-maintenance village living | Available across many RetireAustralia communities |
Villas | People wanting more space and private outdoor areas | Common in NSW, QLD and SA village listings |
Apartments | Downsizers wanting secure, apartment-style living | Available in selected villages such as Tarragal Glen and The Verge |
Serviced apartments | Residents wanting additional services in selected villages | Listed at several RetireAustralia communities on villages.com.au |
Care or aged care options | People with higher support needs in specific locations | Only mention where the listing confirms aged care facility or care services |
Care access should not be assumed at every RetireAustralia village; and it is good to confirm the services is available at the specific community they are considering.
The cost of living in a RetireAustralia village depends on location, home type, contract model, current availability and whether extra services or care are involved.
Villages.com.au listings show a wide range of RetireAustralia prices, from lower-priced one-bedroom serviced apartment or villa options to premium homes in coastal and high-demand locations.
Cost Type | What It Covers | What to Check |
Entry price | The listed price or payment to move into the retirement village home | Current listing price, home type and contract model |
Ongoing fees | Village services, maintenance and shared facilities | Amount, inclusions and review process |
Exit or departure fees | Fees that may apply when leaving the village | Calculation method and contract terms |
Serviced apartment or care fees | Additional services, meals, care or support where relevant | Inclusions, eligibility and separate charges |
Before signing, seek independent legal and financial advice so you understand entry costs, ongoing fees, exit fees and any care or serviced apartment costs.
RetireAustralia communities are designed to provide secure, social and low-maintenance retirement living.
Villages.com.au listings mention amenities such as on-site managers, resident committees, hairdressers, cafes, licensed and unlicensed bars, village buses, beauty salons, vegetable gardens and walkable access to shops or transport.
Independent retirement living across NSW, QLD and SA
Villas, apartments and serviced apartment options
On-site managers and resident committees in many communities
Village buses, cafes, salons or bars in selected villages
Coastal, city and country locations
Care or support options in selected communities
Amenities differ by village, so you should compare each listing rather than assuming every RetireAustralia community has the same facilities.
Pros | Considerations |
Large established retirement village operator | Villages are focused on NSW, QLD and SA, not every state |
30 unique locations across three states | Prices and availability vary widely by village |
Independent living, serviced apartments and selected care options | Care access should be checked village by village |
Strong lifestyle and community focus | Contracts, fees and exit costs need careful review |
City, country and coastal communities | Premium locations can have higher prices |
Use this comparison as a starting point only. You should compare specific villages, current prices, contracts, amenities and care access before making a decision.
RetireAustralia may be suitable if you:
Want a retirement village in NSW, Queensland or South Australia
Prefer an established retirement village operator
Want villas, apartments or serviced apartment options
Value amenities such as cafes, salons, village buses or resident committees
Are comparing villages with selected care or support options
RetireAustralia may be less suitable if you:
Want retirement living outside NSW, QLD or SA
Need guaranteed aged care placement immediately
Prefer a land lease or rental-only seniors living model
Do not want to review exit fees or serviced apartment costs
To compare RetireAustralia villages, browse RetireAustralia listings on villages.com.au and open the individual village pages that match your preferred location.
Check current availability, price, property type, bedrooms, bathrooms, serviced apartment options, amenities, care co-location and enquiry options. You can also contact RetireAustralia directly to ask about tours, contracts, fees and services.
