Tucked away in the serene community of Wattle Downs, Acacia Cove Retirement Village offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, vibrant social life, and premium amenities. Flanked to the east by the Wattle Downs Golf & Country Club and to the west by a sparkling estuary teeming with birdlife, this is retirement living at its most picturesque.
At the heart of the village lies the magnificent Lodge Community Centre, purpose-built to capture the tranquil outlook and stunning sunsets. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet coffee in the sun, meeting friends for a meal, or joining in one of the many organised activities, the Lodge is the social heartbeat of Acacia Cove.
Bowling Green, Indoor Pool & Activities Room – all basking in sunshine with views across the estuary.
Lounge & Restaurant – perfect for relaxed afternoons with friends.
Fully Equipped Community Hub – including open fireplace, billiard table, gym, spa bath, hair salon, nurse’s station, library, and computer suite.
Meeting Rooms – the ideal base for the walking group, garden club, and pre-golf meet-ups.
With regular outings, events, and activities, you’ll never be short of something to do – unless, of course, you simply want to relax and soak up the view.
Imagine starting your day with a stroll along the estuary, catching sight of herons and kingfishers, or playing a round at the golf course just across the road. Life here is about freedom, friendships, and the peace of mind that comes from living in a supportive, well-maintained environment.
