Experience contemporary design, community and choice with the new Peacehaven Villas

Our new, architecturally-designed Peacehaven villas feature quality components to reflect your style and needs, set within a safe and vibrant retirement community.

Live Connected. Live Confident. Live Well.

At Enliven Southland, we work alongside you and your family to provide the support you need to live well.

We’ve been part of the Southland story for more than 100 years, with a charitable mission that puts people first, supporting generations of families through life’s later stages with care and compassion.

We believe that aging is a chapter of life to be embraced. At Enliven Southland, we’re dedicated to empowering older adults to live fulfilling, connected, and vibrant lives within their own community. We envision a Southland where aging is celebrated, where older adults are valued, and where everyone has choice and independence in addition to access to the support they need, to live their best lives.

Our Services

Whether you’re in your own home and looking to remain connected, to start your next chapter in our retirement villages, or for a place in our care homes, we’re here to offer practical support and genuine connection.
