Quick facts

About Eureka

Eureka has been creating independent living communities for seniors since 2001. Its villages hold more than 2,800 homes between them, so you have plenty of choice when you look for a place near family, friends and the places you know. Being close to the people and places that matter to you is often one of the biggest factors in a successful move, so it is worth thinking about location before anything else.

Residents rent their home, and Eureka manages every home in each village. That includes property maintenance, garden care and community activities, which leaves your time free for family, friends and the things you enjoy. Amenities and activities vary from community to community. Renting is a different arrangement from buying into a village, so it helps to think about what each approach would mean for your finances and your flexibility over the years ahead.

Eureka Group Holdings Limited is listed on the ASX and owns a portfolio of villages. The company added more villages to the network in 2023. If ownership matters to you, it is reasonable to ask the village directly about anything further you would like to know before you commit.

Costs & fees

For a current price, call Eureka directly on 1800 356 818 or enquire through the listing for the community you're interested in. It is a good idea to ask exactly what a price includes and to have the details put in writing, so that you can compare it fairly with other options. Take your time with this step, and bring a family member or adviser along to the conversation if you would like a second opinion.

Care & lifestyle services

Eureka villages are built for independent living, so you stay in your own home and keep your own routines. If you need extra assistance, government and community support groups deliver it to you at home, which helps you stay independent for longer. It is worth finding out early how to arrange this kind of support, so that you know where to turn if your needs change.

Eureka is not a residential aged care provider, so its villages have no on-site aged care. You arrange the support you need in your own home, and your home stays your home.

Eureka Ocean Grove, for example, has a central community centre with a dining area, a library and a TV viewing area. Manicured gardens and well-kept lawns add to the setting, and regular entertainment and social activities bring neighbours together. Some villages also serve home-style meals daily. The mix of facilities varies by community, so when you inspect a village, look at the shared spaces and ask which ones you would actually use.

What makes Eureka different

Eureka is Australia's largest provider of independent seniors rental living. You can choose from more than 50 villages in six states and deal with one operator throughout. Eureka is rental only, with no entry or exit fees, which keeps your savings in your hands for travel, family and everyday living. For many people, avoiding large payments on the way in and out is a significant part of how they weigh up a move.

Eureka has been building its network since 2001. An independent survey of half of its residents found overall satisfaction of 84 percent across key village areas. A figure like this is a useful starting point, and it is best read alongside what you see and hear for yourself when you visit.
