A luxury lifestyle for the over-50s

The Palm Lake Resort Pelican Waters’ team has designed their most opulent and prestigious over-50s community to date. During the planning process, one thing became abundantly clear: modern over-50s will not settle for an outdated ‘retirement’ approach to living. Their diaries are full, and they prioritise their health and wellness. 

The team of designers at Palm Lake Resort Pelican Waters, who have more than 45 years of experience in the building of lifestyle communities, are aware that older homeowners are more likely to ‘right-size’ their houses than to downsize. These houses must have high-end furnishings and equipment that require little maintenance. They ought to have enough room for close relatives and friends as well as the recreational pursuits that make these years worthwhile. For this reason, Palm Lake Resort Pelican Waters has everything you need to live life to the fullest. 

The Sonora dining and social precinct at Palm Lake Resort Pelican Waters is a vibrant hub for residents to enjoy various activities and socialise. It includes a dance floor and a stage, providing a venue for lively events and entertainment. The precinct also features a commercial kitchen, ensuring that culinary delights are prepared to perfection. For those looking to unwind and savour breathtaking views, there is a fully licenced rooftop bar and a dining hall with water views, creating a delightful ambience for shared meals. 

Eldorado Sports Precinct caters to the active lifestyle of residents. It offers an array of facilities for sports enthusiasts. The precinct boasts an impressive eight-rink undercover bowling green, providing an ideal space for friendly competitions and gatherings. Additionally, there is a four-lane ten-pin bowling alley, perfect for friendly matches and some competitive fun. Tennis and pickleball courts are available for those seeking outdoor activities. The precinct also includes a billiards room and a table tennis area, offering options for both leisurely and competitive gameplay. 

The Cerante Arts and Leisure Precinct is a haven for creativity and cultural pursuits. It encompasses a luxurious movie theatre, allowing residents to enjoy the latest films in ultimate comfort. A library provides a serene space for reading and intellectual exploration. The arts and crafts room allows residents to indulge in their creative passions and explore various artistic mediums. Furthermore, a dedicated music room offers a place for residents to express themselves through music, whether through playing instruments or singing. 

These additional inclusions enhance the already impressive offerings of Palm Lake Resort Pelican Waters, providing residents with a well-rounded and engaging lifestyle. From dining and socialising to sports and artistic pursuits, residents have access to a range of activities and amenities that contribute to their overall well-being and enjoyment.  

The over-50s demographic has also shown a shift towards prioritising health and wellness, with activities like yoga, Pilates, tai chi, and meditation becoming consistent inclusions in their routines. 

To cater to these needs, Palm Lake Resort Pelican Waters has placed special emphasis on creating opulent and considered community facilities. The resort is nestled alongside the award-winning Pelican Waters Golf Course and features The Springs Country Club as its main community precinct. The Springs Country Club offers a rooftop bar, resort swimming pools, exclusive dining and social spaces, and a first-of-its-kind Mirador wellness centre.  

Mirador is a purpose-designed wellness area within the greater Country Club precinct. It is the first time in Palm Lake Resort’s history that such a dedicated approach to wellness has been embraced. Homeowners have reacted incredibly positively to this new addition. The Mirador wellness centre includes a Milon gymnasium, where users can experience a circuit of slick electronic exercise machines. Each homeowner has a personal Milon smart card that they insert into each machine, storing their set-up requirements, health information, and exercise progress in the cloud for accessibility by chosen health professionals.

Mirador pays attention to the little things as well. Changerooms, amenities, and personal lockers are well-considered, ensuring homeowners feel a sense of extension to their own space within the wellness centre. 

For nature enthusiasts, the resort boasts meticulously landscaped gardens, allowing residents to immerse themselves in the serenity of the surroundings. The picturesque scenery creates a tranquil atmosphere, perfect for relaxation and contemplation.
