Ideal place, beyond expectation
5 / 5 ★With my short experience here, I found the place is ideal for me, beyond my expectation no negatives so far.
nothing is too much trouble
5 / 5 ★none
Independent Living
5 / 5 ★The major refurb project currently in our village is being extremely well managed with full consideration to the current residents.
Quick Review
5 / 5 ★Like all retirement homes Arvida has trouble recruiting nursing staff. The Govt needs to increase wages for nurses.
Independant Living
5 / 5 ★Most helpful as we moved into our independent unit
Excellent Family Feel
5 / 5 ★Keep up the excellent work.
Feedback for Arvida Mayfair Retirement Village
4 / 5 ★To be honest I do not attend many of the entertainment options. Arvida has the Good Fiends centre on Whitleigh Ave, this has a gym and pool, these are free for me, part of living in an Arvida village. I also do all my own meals.
Independent Living
4 / 5 ★The apartment block at Mayfair is currently being upgraded & updated so it is difficult to give a true assessment.
Well Situated
3 / 5 ★More communication with residents, this is our home as was stated when we purchased.
review
2 / 5 ★As I am independent, I do not partake in any of the activities. We lost our free gym membership with this buy-out.
