Villas

Stoke retirement village kitchen and living area

Stoke offers affordable one and two-bedroom villas in different shapes and sizes, so you can find the home that best suits your lifestyle. Choose from either a cosy, refurbished one-bedroom home with a modern kitchen or a spacious, two-bedroom villa with a conservatory and garage. We also have brand-new, open-plan villas with all the mod cons, including a heat pump and double-glazing to keep you warm all winter long.

If your needs change, priority is given to Stoke residents if a room is available at Oceania’s nearby care centre Green Gables. Oceania has won the Supreme Care Award from the NZ Aged Care Association 3 years in a row, so when it comes to your care, you can be sure you’re in good hands.

Wellbeing at Oceania

At Oceania, wellbeing is holistic and person-centred, shaped by lifestyle, connection, culture, creativity, movement and individual choice. Guided by the Five Ways to Wellbeing, our teams create meaningful, uplifting experiences each month. From walking together to raise funds for mental health through initiatives like Step Together, Better Together, to taking part in the New Zealand Garden Bird Survey and contributing to conservation research, residents are supported to connect, be active, take notice, keep learning and give back in ways that feel purposeful and rewarding.

Five Ways to Wellbeing

The Five Ways to Wellbeing are based on research showing that small, everyday actions can have a powerful impact on how we feel. At Oceania, this framework helps shape the experiences we create across our villages and care centres, supporting residents to live well in ways that feel natural and meaningful.

The Five Ways are:

Connect – Building relationships, sharing stories and spending time with friends, neighbours and family.

Be Active – Moving in ways that suit your body and ability, supporting strength, balance and mood.

Take Notice – Slowing down to appreciate the moment, whether that’s a garden in bloom or a shared laugh.

Keep Learning – Staying curious, trying something new and continuing to grow at every stage of life.

Give – Sharing your time, kindness, skills or experience with others.

Our team strives to thoughtfully weave these principles into everyday life, creating opportunities for residents to stay connected, active and engaged in ways that reflect their own interests, culture and life story. In doing so, residents are supported to continue finding purpose, enjoyment and a genuine sense of belonging.
