Eldercare Retirement Living & Retirement Villages Guide

Last Updated: July 2026

Eldercare is a South Australian not-for-profit provider offering retirement living and residential aged care. Its retirement villages are located across metropolitan Adelaide and regional South Australia, with many communities positioned alongside aged care homes. This guide explains Eldercare's retirement living options, locations, accommodation, lifestyle, costs and what to consider before making an enquiry.

About Eldercare

Who is Eldercare?

Eldercare is one of South Australia's longest-established not-for-profit providers of retirement living and residential aged care. For more than 35 years, the organisation has supported older South Australians by providing retirement villages designed for independent living alongside residential aged care communities and support services.

Unlike operators that focus exclusively on retirement living, Eldercare combines retirement villages with a broader aged care network. Many of its retirement communities are co-located with residential aged care homes, giving residents the reassurance that additional support may be available within the organisation if their care needs change over time.

Its retirement villages are designed for people who want to downsize without giving up their independence, while remaining connected to local services, neighbours and community life.

Eldercare Quick Facts

Why People Choose Eldercare

Choosing a retirement village is about more than finding a smaller home. It is about finding a community that supports the lifestyle you enjoy today while providing confidence for the future.

Many people choose Eldercare because it combines independent retirement living with the experience of an established aged care provider. While retirement living and residential aged care remain separate services, the organisation's integrated model provides reassurance for people thinking ahead.

As a not-for-profit provider, Eldercare reinvests into resident services, community facilities and ongoing improvements rather than distributing profits to shareholders.

Residents also enjoy professionally maintained communities, allowing more time to spend with family, pursue hobbies and participate in social activities without many of the maintenance responsibilities associated with a traditional family home.

Retirement Living

Eldercare retirement villages are designed for older Australians who want to continue living independently in a secure and welcoming community.

Residents typically live in self-contained homes while enjoying professionally maintained gardens, shared community spaces and the opportunity to build friendships with neighbours.

Many villages are conveniently located close to shopping centres, healthcare services, public transport and local amenities, making everyday life easier while helping residents remain active within their local community.

Care & Support Services

Eldercare also operates residential aged care homes throughout South Australia.

Retirement living and residential aged care serve different purposes. Retirement villages are designed for independent older Australians, while residential aged care provides ongoing personal and clinical care for people whose needs have increased.

Some retirement villages are located alongside aged care homes, creating convenient pathways to additional support if required in the future.
