Luxury Retirement just got exciting!

Waterbrook Retirement Lifestyle Resorts have spent decades reimagining and remastering the art of retirement living, delivering inspired luxury environments with the most thoughtful of details and the personal attention we love to give. We know that a beautiful life is also about simple things; feeling connected and cared for, whilst being independent and secure. Waterbrook ensures all these elements combine to provide a rich Resident experience. Waterbrook’s values centre around Resident happiness; wellbeing and personalised luxury services that ensure Residents are healthier, supported, socially engaged and more fulfilled than they would be in their own homes. We imagined incredible retirement and then we created it in Bowral!

Creating a Luxury Retirement Community in Bowral

Our over 55 retirement lifestyle Resort will be set on 17 hectares in Centennial Road, Bowral. Formally the Our Ladies of the Sacred Heart Catholic Boys Boarding School and fondly known by locals as OLSH, it is a truly iconic site. As part of Stage 1 of the development, we will be refurbishing the original Chapel (c.1930) and 500 person capacity Memorial Hall (c.1948) as well as renovating and repurposing  the classrooms, dormitory and bathrooms into a cinema, games room, library, business centre, creative studios, a la carte restaurant, bar and café.

5-star Luxury Retirement Lifestyle

Our Residents tell us one of the things they love most about their Bowral retirement lifestyle is the range of activities and services that are available to them . Our Residents are welcome to take part in a variety of social events, community activities and exceptional facilities, both in-house and off-site. Their Waterbrook retirement lifestyle can be as active or as relaxed as they choose.

“Resort life at Waterbrook is more than you ever imagined. Grounded by five-star luxury and service, our promise to you is that we will never stop striving to do more”.
 – Liane, Head of Operations.

Why Retirement in Bowral, Southern Highlands?

Bowral, the largest of the Southern Highlands towns, is home to an eclectic array of restaurants, coffee shops, wineries, country markets, literary events, boutique shops, art galleries and a four-screen movie theatre. There are a wide range of medical practices, specialist services, private and public hospitals.

Well known for its climate, with four distinctive seasons, picturesque landscape and vibrant shopping centres, it’s easy to see why the Southern Highlands is such a popular retirement destination.

Our Service never sleeps

Available 24/7, the Concierge Team is there to assist with just about anything, ensuring Residents are comfortable within the Resort and its surrounds, the community and local neighbourhood. Our Concierge Team brings together a regular social program, sorts mail, greets family, guests and delivers a daily paper. They are dedicated to Residents’ personal wellbeing and will know when to laugh or hug, not because it’s in their job description, because these are the types of people who love to work at Waterbrook.

Standard services that you will find at our Waterbrook Bowral Resort include:

Extensive suite of staff including Registered Nurse

Active social program

Health and wellness practitioners

Courtesy shuttle bus

Inhouse emergency call 24/7 Concierge response

Visitor parking

Full-time gardeners

Our Waterbrook Nurse assists in developing programs for our Resident’s wellbeing and also coordinates in-residence care if required. Our Nurse can assist Residents with day to day concerns, queries or guidance in regard to any health issue. If required our Nurse accompanies Residents to medical appointments, providing companionship or peace of mind. Our complimentary Waterbrook shuttle operates to provide Residents with easy access to and from medical appointments and longer stay visits to hospitals or medical centers’. By remaining close to our Residents and understanding their needs, we can be as involved as much or as little as they require.

A Luxury Retirement Resort Dedicated to your Wellbeing

As both Developer and Operator, we place great emphasis on ensuring our Resorts cater to the needs of our Residents, to fulfil their lifestyle, health and social wellbeing. We devote special attention to ensure Residents remain in touch with their bodies and care for their active health, by providing fitness programs in a combination of arenas; in our gym or out and about in the beautiful gardens and grounds, tailored to suit every need. Our day spa is available for relaxation and rejuvenation, offering a full range of personal treatments, massage, hair and beauty, whilst our indoor saltwater pool is available for individual use or to participate in one of our many active classes.

A Unique Retirement Community

Free time is there to be enjoyed. At Waterbrook, Residents can choose to relax; socialise with friends in the piano bar or enjoy a quiet read in the library. When we create a Waterbrook Resort, we also create a community – a community of likeminded people who interact, care and share their lives with each other. Waterbrook thrives on interaction; it is the core of what we do and something we believe provides our Resorts with an outstanding differentiation. To be able to sustain health and wellbeing for Waterbrook Residents, one of the imperatives is to ensure every opportunity is provided for them to stay productive and active members of the local community. It’s all in the detail.
