Located in leafy Papanui, The Bellevue is our newest offering for luxury Care Suite living.

Care Suites provide both Rest Home and Hospital level care, which means you can relax knowing you won’t have the upheaval of moving again if your needs increase. Your Care Suite is designed to be your forever home, so you’ll be able to stay in the same familiar place, with your friends around you and the staff who know you best caring for you. Some Care Suites are large enough to accommodate couples, so you can be together – even if one of you requires Hospital level care.

Choose from either a studio Care Suite with an open-plan bedroom and lounge, or a one-bedroom Care Suite with a separate bedroom and living area. All Care Suites have a heat pump and full ensuite, as well as a kitchenette – perfect for making a cuppa when friends and family come to visit. We also have options with private balconies or patios.

You own the right to occupy your Care Suite, so you can personalise it with your favourite furniture and treasured pieces. A DHB assessment is not required for care that is paid for privately.

It’s easy to fill your day at The Bellevue. Our Guest Services Manager will get to know you to find out how you like to spend your time, so whether you want to meet friends at a show or video chat with family overseas – they’ll take care of the logistics to make it happen. Our activities calendar is packed with a variety of group and solo pursuits. Hop in the village van to explore an exciting new destination each week or enjoy some me-time listening to your own personalised playlist with our award-winning I Love Music programme. You choose what you feel like doing.

Tender Sunday roasts, hot fish and chips and scrummy homemade puddings… all are regular features on our menu, which is packed with tasty classics you’d make at home. Don’t fancy what’s on offer? Have a chat to our friendly chef and kitchen team to let them know what you’re craving. Good food is best shared, and family and friends are welcome to come dine with you. Enjoy a barista coffee and a bite to eat from the onsite café or book in for a meal in the main or private dining room.

Oceania is a leading provider of premium healthcare services in New Zealand. With over 40 locations across the country, we’ve been part of local communities for over 50 years. We’re recognised as industry leaders in care, winning awards for innovation, food, staff training and community engagement.

When it comes to your care, you know what you do and don’t like – and we want to know your preferences too. Because everyone is different, all of our residents receive a personalised care plan, so everything that’s important to you - from meals to medications - is covered.

No referral required.
