About Arvida Bethlehem Shores
Arvida Bethlehem Shores is a purpose-built care community located in the vibrant heart of Bethlehem, Tauranga. Our contemporary care centre, opened in March 2026, offers a welcoming coastal lifestyle alongside a full range of beautifully designed Care Suites to suit different needs and preferences. Options include Classic and Premium Suites, spacious Deluxe and Deluxe Plus Suites, and dedicated Couples Care Suites that enable partners to remain together while receiving the support they need.
Designed to feel more like home than a traditional care facility, each Care Suite offers generous space, privacy and comfort, while providing the reassurance that professional support is available when needed. For those requiring specialist dementia care, Bethlehem Shores also features a secure, purpose-built dementia community that provides additional safety, personalised support and peace of mind.
As part of Arvida's Attitude of Living Well, Bethlehem Shores embraces Arvida's five pillars of wellbeing: eating, moving, resting, thinking and engaging. These pillars help shape everyday life, supporting residents to maintain independence, purpose and connection.
At Bethlehem Shores, care is centred around the individual. The team takes the time to understand each resident's preferences, routines and interests, creating personalised experiences that support both wellbeing and quality of life. Whether it's enjoying a favourite meal, spending time with family and friends in the café, participating in meaningful activities or simply relaxing in comfortable surroundings, residents are encouraged to continue living life their way.
With exceptional amenities, thoughtfully designed shared spaces and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Bethlehem Shores offers comfort, companionship and confidence for whatever the future may bring.

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.
