Oakridge Villas

Oakridge Villas is a well-established retirement village set on generous grounds in the heart of Kerikeri, in the Bay of Islands region of Northland. The village has a resort-style feel, a country lodge-themed community centre, beautifully landscaped gardens, and a warm, close-knit community shaped by the relaxed character of Kerikeri itself. For those looking for a retirement that combines genuine community with one of New Zealand's most appealing locations, Oakridge Villas is hard to match.

Independent living and on-site aged care. For those who want a fully self-contained home with access to village facilities and the wider town, independent living villas are available. For those who need more support, the purpose-built care home provides rest home, hospital-level, and secure dementia care, with a team on site around the clock and care planned around the individual. Respite care is also available on an enquiry basis.

The care home is within the village, so a move from independent living to care does not mean leaving Oakridge Villas or the community already built here. Rest home, hospital-level, and secure dementia care are all available on site. Care suites provide a genuine sense of personal space, private ensuites, kitchenettes, and outdoor access so residents retain their own environment even as their level of support increases.

Warm and unhurried, shaped by the character of Kerikeri and the pace of Northland. The village has an active social scene, anchored by the community centre, and a care team that takes a personal approach: residents are known as individuals, their routines understood and built around. For independent living residents, the communal life is there when you want it and easy to step back from when you prefer your own company.
