The luxury of living well

Hand-picked locations, architectural homes, resort-style amenities and care on hand when you need it – all thoughtfully designed around the way you want to live.

Location first

From the beach at Mount Maunganui to the rural heart of Waikato, we choose every village location with purpose, considering its natural setting, connection with the community and the lifestyle it offers. Wherever you settle, the same Sanderson standard of thoughtful design, quality and care remains.

"While there may be different addresses for our retirement villages, the same exceptional quality of home and lifestyle applies throughout."

Confidence in every detail

Hands-on from first plan to ongoing operation

From the first feasibility assessment to the final fit-out and ongoing operation, our in-house team takes care of every stage. This hands-on approach gives us greater control over the quality and consistency of our villages – creating places we’d be proud to call home.

Thoughtful by design

Purposeful locations, thoughtful, architecturally designed layouts, resort-style living and a genuine sense of community. Every Sanderson village is thoughtfully curated to support a lifestyle of ease and enjoyment.

A family legacy of quality

We're family-owned and operated, with the same values that have shaped Sanderson since 1987. That continuity matters. It means the relationships we build, the decisions we make and the standards we set are grounded in nearly four decades of experience.
