What does Star of the Sea have to offer?

Our Retirement Living Coordinator Robyn, says the close access to the beach brings with it many opportunities to remain active in your retirement years.

“There’s lots of surf coast walks and cycling tracks along the coastline, which are a must. We have a residents’ walking group and a few bike riders who regularly enjoy these trails. They’d love more company!”

At Star of the Sea Retirement Village you’ll find a safe, close-knit community. You can also take the time to explore what’s on your doorstep, participate in our vibrant lifestyle programs or indulge in some ‘you’ time.

With an indoor gym, cinema, bowling green and alfresco dining area, there are so many ways you can indulge yourself, while being right at home.
