Reviews
Given the current COVID-19 environment we have temporarily disabled our ‘feedback’ feature. We apologise for any inconvenience.
Edmund Hillary Retirement Village enjoys a prime location in the desirable Auckland suburb of Remuera. The village is situated on Abbotts Way, just across the road from the Remuera Golf Club, and within easy reach of some of the city’s best shopping malls and the Eastern Suburb beaches.
You’ll find the latest designs in retirement living at Edmund Hillary, all set amongst beautifully landscaped gardens with panoramic views across One Tree Hill, Mt Hobson and Mt Eden. Our independent townhouses and modern apartments offer the ideal combination of privacy and community, with the comfort of knowing that if necessary, help is on hand through a 24-hour nurse call system. For those who need a little more help on a day-to-day basis, our serviced apartments come in both one-bedroom and studio styles, with kitchenettes and en-suites. Residents can choose from a number of personalised services, including meals, housekeeping and personal assistance. The village also has a state-of-the-art care centre with 195 care rooms offering the very best in resthome, hospital and specialist dementia care.
Amenities include an all-weather bowling green, craft room, workshop, indoor heated swimming pool, gymnasium and spa. In addition you can work on your golf swing, meet a friend for a flat white at our café, or enjoy some pampering in the beauty salon. The range of activities on offer is also impressive, with the chance to get involved with everything from craft groups and knit-and-natter sessions to line dancing.
When Ryman Healthcare was founded over 35 years ago, our co-founder Kevin Hickman thought about what he’d want for his own mother. He set one simple standard for the care we provide: It’s got to be good enough for Mum.
Today, we not only uphold that same standard, we continue to raise the bar in retirement living and aged care.
We’ve won the Reader’s Digest Trusted Brand: Aged Care and Retirement Villages award eight times. And we’ve been awarded the gold medal seven times in the Reader’s Digest Quality Service award.
Ryman offer some of the most resident-friendly and transparent terms in Australasia, with agreements written in plain language so they are easy for everyone to understand.
Our base weekly fee is fixed for the entire time you occupy your townhouse or apartment, guaranteed.* And our deferred management fee is capped at 20 percent – one of the lowest in the retirement sector.
Leading innovation is something that Ryman are becoming renowned for. Our seasonal Delicious menu is made fresh on site by in-house village chefs. If you ever feel like letting someone else doing the cooking, you can choose from three main courses, including a vegetarian option. We also cater for special dietary requirements.
Just like our Delicious meals, our individually frozen meals are made fresh, using only natural ingredients. The ready-to-eat meals are very reasonably priced and are available to purchase from the village café or reception.
We’ve developed our own ACC accredited Triple A exercise programme. Catering for all ability levels, this free programme improves strength, balance and mobility. Our Engage activities programme provides events and activities for residents, such as the weekly Happy Hour, arts and crafts, and outings in the village van.
Having daily activities and events to look forward to, combined with a friendly village environment, is what life is all about. It’s those moments of shared joy and laughter. Because At Ryman villages, we create the kind of community that our residents grew up in – connected and caring.
We look forward to introducing you to our wonderful community.

NOTE: The Retirement Villages Act 2003 (The Act) is designed to provide improved protection for people who ‘buy’ into a retirement village. If you intend to ‘purchase’ you must get independent legal advice before signing your occupation right agreement as required under The Act. Some Retirement Village type facilities are not required to register under The Act so different legal requirements apply. Please make sure you investigate fully.
In some villages there may be some Retirement Village units that have multiple uses e.g. a Serviced Apartment may also be used as a Residential Care Suite. The same unit may therefore show in several places on Eldernet.
