A lush retirement lifestyle in Karaka

Surrounded by lush green landscape in the affluent suburb of Karaka, sits Ryman’s proposed retirement village on Hingaia Road. The village’s southern aspect will offer picturesque views over the Pahurehure Inlet and out towards the Hunua Ranges. Combine this beautiful location with the convenience of having central Papakura less than a 10-minute drive away, and you have the perfect recipe for an idyllic retirement lifestyle.

As a Ryman village, the proposed Karaka village will offer living options to suit everyone, giving you the freedom to live the way you want. You can choose from an independent townhouse or apartment, and if you need a little extra support, an assisted-living apartment could be just what you need. A state-of-the-art care centre will also be located within the same village community offering resthome, hospital and specialist dementia care.

You’ll love the lock-and-leave lifestyle, the feeling of camaraderie, and the endless activities and events available. Plus, amenities such as an all-weather bowling green, heated indoor swimming pool, café, hair and beauty salon, and movie theatre mean there’s always something to do or someone to meet. It’s a lifestyle you can thrive in, and for those local to the area, it’s the perfect opportunity to enjoy our village within your local village.

The measure of a full life at Karaka Village is certainly one that will get richer with age.

 FREEDOM TO LIVE THE WAY YOU WANT 

Karaka Village will offer living choices to suit everyone, so residents can live the way they want and blaze their own trails. Our townhouses and apartments will be light and spacious, with clean lines and a clever open plan design layout that provides an easy flow throughout.

If down the track you need more support, we will offer assisted-living apartments and a full range of care options. That freedom and flexibility is empowering for residents and knowing care can be dialled up as needed means, quite simply, ‘no worries’. It's all part of what we like to call the Ryman Difference

ENJOY A LITTLE CERTAINTY

Our pioneering approach to retirement living includes resident-friendly terms designed to protect you and your family. Our base weekly fee is fixed for the entire time you occupy your townhouse or apartment*, and our standard deferred management fee is capped at 20 percent – one of the lowest in the retirement sector.

*Some conditions apply.

A RANGE OF CARE OPTIONS

Care is not an ‘add on’ at a Ryman village, it is built into the fabric of our villages from the very beginning. It’s comforting for couples and friends to know they can still be near each other even if their health needs are different.

Karaka Village care centre will offer a full range of care options including resthome, hospital and specialist dementia care. Like all aspects of our villages, we constantly look for ways to improve both the care we provide and the innovation behind it. Care is customised using our myRyman Care app and residents love the food in our seasonal Delicious menu, which is prepared fresh on site by village chefs.
