About Aspiring Village

Aspiring Village logo

Aspiring Village was established in 2010, and is now home to a vibrant community of almost 200 residents living across 124 villas, 16 apartments and 24 assisted living apartments. We offer thoughtfully designed villas and apartments in a range of sizes and configurations. All homes are built to a very high standard, with our designs and specifications tailored for the Central Otago climate.

The village offers extensive lifestyle facilities with our park like grounds and the Aspiring Lifestyle Centre - the social hub of the village where we host events and activities organised by our staff team and residents. In 2020 we extended and refurbished our lifestyle centre, which includes an indoor heated pool, spa, gym, café and lounges, residents bar, media room, BBQ areas, library and much more.

In 2023 we opened 24 assisted living apartments. Pembroke Apartments are 1 and 2 bedroom apartments with added services such as meals, housekeeping, laundry and medication supervision.

The majority of our residents live independent lives - but sometimes needs may change. The Our Village team will work with you and your family to provide you with care and support in your home, and priority access to residential care is available at our on-site Aspiring Care Centre.

As villas and apartments become available, we contact those who have previously expressed their interest to us before advertising more widely. If you wish to be notified of unit availability it is imperative to complete and return an Expression of Interest form.
