About Arrowtown Lifestyle Village

Arrowtown Lifestyle Village logo

Arrowtown Lifestyle Village is a vibrant retirement community set on McDonnell Road in the Queenstown Lakes District. The village is independently owned and operated by local families and experienced operators. When complete, the village will be home to approximately 100 villas, 30 premium townhouses, and residential aged care.

The expansive 1400m² Residents’ Lodge was completed in 2023 and is the social heart of the village. Architecturally designed to complement the stunning alpine location and celebrate the Arrowtown aesthetic, this building provides a range of social and quiet spaces, inside and out. Facilities provided at the Lodge include: private cinema, fireside lounge and dining spaces, Residents’ Club Bar, salon, fitness centre, indoor heated pool, spa and library. Outside, residents enjoy our community gardens, pétanque piste, croquet court, barbecue and outdoor dining areas, walkways and more.

Our professional and friendly village staff provide unmatched service to our resident community, offering support where needed, along with a variety of entertainment and activities.

All residences at Arrowtown Lifestyle Village have been thoughtfully designed by specialised architects. The vast majority of villas are free-standing with ample outdoor living spaces and all feature double glazing, insulation and covered patios to suit the local climate. Villa construction is nearing completion, with the townhouse precinct currently underway.

Arrowtown Lifestyle Village invites people from all walks of life to join this welcoming and inclusive community. With accommodation options to suit a range of budgets, it offers an excellent retirement lifestyle in an enviable location just a short drive from both Arrowtown and Queenstown.

Residents Say It Best

”Arrowtown is the most stunning village in the South Island. We can walk to the golf course, access bike and hiking trails, and enjoy the superb local restaurants and vineyards. Arrowtown people are incredibly friendly. Our home gives us complete independence, but also the immediate company of like-minded neighbours who are great fun. We are thrilled with our decision.”

Robin

”The area is delightfully quiet and peaceful. The village looks and feels like a real rural village, with colour and charm in the gardens making it a special place for us.”
