Why Choose Apārangi Village?
At Apārangi Village, retirement living is more than just a place to settle – it’s about embracing a secure, rewarding, and vibrant lifestyle.
Founded in 1973 by members of the local community who had a desire to create somewhere special to retire to and now administered by a volunteer Trust Board, we’re committed to providing a retirement experience like no other.
Our village is built on three pillars: People, Place, and Community. We believe in fostering meaningful connections, providing exceptional care, and creating an enriching environment where residents can truly thrive.
With a unique approach to home ownership, spacious surroundings, and an unbeatable location, Apārangi Village is more than just a retirement village – it’s a supportive and inclusive community where every individual is valued and can enjoy a fulfilling and independent life.
What Makes Apārangi Village Unique?
Our commitment to People, Place, and Community is reflected in everything we offer. Here’s what sets Apārangi apart:
1. Enjoy the Benefits of Capital Gain

Apārangi Village is designed to offer wide-open spaces and low-density housing, ensuring a peaceful and private environment. Each home features distinct architectural character, creating a village that feels welcoming, diverse, and thoughtfully designed.
