Map location

We have Independent Living Units, a nursing home and a hostel co-located for your convenience enabling you to remain in a familiar environment in accordance with your changing needs. This also creates a vibrant community which supports family members staying together.

“As soon as we drove into Immanuel Gardens it felt like home. My husband and I love the unit. We have been so happy and both of my sisters have since moved in. It has a lovely homely atmosphere and we have a great community centre. We see the bush and the ocean from our units and we’re close to hospitals and doctors services here.”
