The Botanic Hibiscus Coast

06/09/2026

It’s only two and a half weeks until our Spring Open Weekend at The Botanic Hibiscus Coast! 🌿🏡

Mark the dates in your diary: Friday 25 to Sunday 27 September, 10am - 3pm each day - and come along to experience what life at The Botanic is really like.

We suggest starting at The Clubhouse Café where some of our friendly residents will be on hand to welcome you, show you around our wonderful amenities, point you in the direction of our showhomes, or even organise a tour of the village aboard The Botanic Buggy!

It’s also the perfect chance to chat with residents about their own experience of making the move, settling in and becoming part of the community - giving you a genuine insight into village life from the people who know it best.

With enticing specials on selected properties and a 50% capital gain share available, it could be the perfect time to secure your next chapter at The Botanic.

We’d love to see you there! 🍃🥰🏡

Our fabulous residents are featured in this month’s Coasties Magazine, sharing their thoughts on the rising costs of home ownership in retirement - and why making the move to The Botanic Hibiscus Coast has made good financial sense for them.

From greater certainty around ongoing costs to leaving behind the expense and upkeep of a family home, it’s a great read for anyone thinking about what retirement living could look like.

🌿 Thinking about retirement village living for yourself or helping a parent explore their options? Read our latest blog: Retirement Village Fees Explained: What to Budget For.

Because when it comes to making a big decision, understanding exactly what you’re paying for matters. Terms like weekly fees, ORAs and Deferred Management Fees can make things feel more complicated than they need to be.

Our latest blog breaks the whole topic of retirement village fees down and explains what to look for when comparing villages.

At The Botanic, we believe in being upfront about the numbers. Our Village Fee covers things you might otherwise be paying for separately at home, including council and water rates, building insurance, gardens and grounds, internal and external home maintenance, rubbish collection, security and the upkeep of our shared amenities.

And importantly, once you move in, your Village Fee is fixed for life, giving you greater certainty when planning your future finances.

Straight from the source 💚 Sometimes the best way to understand what life at The Botanic is really like is to hear it from the people who live here.

Two of our residents recently shared what they love about their two-bedroom, two-bathroom villa on Sage Close. “We are very pleased we chose a villa on Sage Close. The elevated position gives views over the Village, the gardens and the hills beyond.”

They also love how light and airy their home feels, the easy connection to outdoor living and gardens, and the fact that all of The Botanic’s amenities are still close by.

With an extra long, generous garage providing plenty of extra room for storage, shelving and a workspace, “Moving from a 4-bedroom house has been easier than we thought.”

A beautiful home, a practical layout and a lifestyle that makes everyday living that little bit easier.🌿

When the mornings are chilly and it’s tempting to stay indoors, keeping active can feel that little bit harder - but at The Botanic Hibiscus Coast exercise is easy, enjoyable and right on your doorstep.

Whether it’s joining our Strength, Balance & Agility class on a Monday morning, stepping into Senior Dance Fitness on a Tuesday, taking part in an Optimal Movement class in the gym on a Thursday, or enjoying an Aquacise session in the heated 20m indoor pool, there are plenty of ways for residents to keep moving through winter.

It’s all about making it simple to stay active, maintain mobility, build strength and, most importantly, have fun along the way.

At The Botanic, wellbeing is part of everyday life - whatever the season. 💚
