Cascades is widely recognised as Hamilton’s most luxurious rest home and serviced apartment retirement village. From the beginning, our emphasis has been on creating a friendly, caring and safe environment where you can enjoy life.

Whether you live independently in an apartment, an assisted living apartment, or in our rest home, you can be assured you will always be respected and cared for. We offer peace of mind to couples who, with our support, are able to stay together throughout their lifetime, regardless of the level of care each may require.

Cascades provides 24 hour care, and emergency call assistance is available to you at all times. We employ a registered nurse and there are experienced caregivers on hand at all times. Medical practitioners, physiotherapists and podiatrists visit on a regular basis.

Cascades is a timeless yet contemporary architectural landmark in the heart of Hamilton’s blue ribbon area and central district. We are conveniently located opposite Hamilton Lake Domain and Lake Rotoroa, and 1 minute drive from Hamilton’s public hospital.
