A Day in the Life at Our Retirement Community in Adelaide

Great retirement villages offer quality living and are located in well-established communities with close access to key amenities like places to eat, healthcare facilities and shops. At Karidis, we understand that each person in our Adelaide retirement living communities is unique, with varied interests that change and develop over time. 

That’s why we offer an environment where you can be as active or relaxed as you want. Below, we take a look at an example of what someone’s day could be like at one of our villages.

Get Started Your Own Way

For this scenario, let’s imagine that you’re a relatively active, social member of our retirement community in Adelaide that prioritises independent living. In this case, you might start your day by making yourself breakfast in your own kitchen, in your own private residence within the village. If you’d prefer, you could go into town for breakfast with a friend. Our retirement homes are always positioned near shops and amenities areas. 

Activities, Hobbies and Leisure

From there, you can continue your day with various activities accommodated by the retirement village. Depending on the daily schedule, this can include everything from yoga classes to aerobics in our indoor swimming pool or a billiard tournament. Of course, you can also do activities casually, whether you want to go from a leisurely swim, relax in the indoor spa or take a stroll through the beautifully maintained gardens. 

Enjoy Life Around Adelaide, Your Way

Have lunch back in your own kitchen or use our lovely outdoor barbecue setting. Of course, you can also head back into town to dine out. That way, you can continue to enjoy your day how you like. 

If you’re in our Glenelg community, you can head down for a beachside walk. Or if you settle into our retirement village in Lockleys, you can go for a spot of golf. Finish up your day with a spot of dinner, some socialising at the community centre and a game of cards, bingo or something else.
