Retirement feels like a permanent holiday at Rivervue

Have you ever returned from a fantastic holiday and wished it could last forever? That carefree feeling of waking up without a schedule, surrounded by beautiful scenery and plenty of ways to fill your day if you choose to. For residents at Rivervue Retirement Village, that’s often how life feels—like being on holiday every day.

Selecting a retirement village can be much like planning your dream getaway. There’s excitement in researching options, envisioning a new lifestyle and imagining how day-to-day life might look. Residents at Rivervue often talk about that same sense of anticipation when they first explored the village — walking along the Maribyrnong River, seeing the gardens, and sitting in the community spaces picturing their next chapter.

Just as you’d choose a holiday that suits your personal style, Rivervue allows residents to tailor their lifestyle. Some enjoy quiet mornings by the river, others start their day with an exercise class in the community centre, a dip in the pool, a visit to the beauty salon or coffee with neighbours. With no need to worry about home or garden maintenance, residents are free to enjoy a relaxed paceor fill their calendars with the many activities and social gatherings on offer. Then it comes to taking a holiday away from home, residents have the peace of mind, knowing they can lock and leave, and everything will be taken care of.

The connections formed here are often one of the highlights. As resident Margaret shared, “I didn’t realise how much I’d enjoy the company. It reminds me of being on a cruise—you bump into someone, start chatting, and before you know it, you’ve made a new friend.”

With beautifully maintained grounds, resort-style facilities and opportunities to spend time doing the things you love, Rivervue residents often say life here feels less like retirement and more like extended leave – filled with freedom, choice, comfort and enjoyment.

Book your permanent holiday at Rivervue. Call 1300 298 439 to view the activity schedule, join the New Years party on the balcony and see what your next adventure could be like.
