The independent living units at Regis Inala Village form an exciting combination of communities across an 8.5 hectare site of greenery. Most substantial of all is the wonderful mix of people, diverse cultures and characters.
Inala Village centres around a Village Hub, a bustling place alive with coffee shop conversations of residents and their families, a well stocked supermarket, community chapel and even our own internal bus service.
Our active and enthusiastic residents spend time in countless different ways. From reading in our library areas and relaxing in our tranquil gardens, to striding the fairways of local golf courses or strolling around the picturesque Orchard Grove Reserve nearby.
Many indulge their creativity through our craft classes or join social activities like our monthly barbeques, afternoon teas and other special functions such as Chinese New Year. With a weekly bus trip to the local shopping centre, we will ensure all your shopping needs are satisfied.
Inala Village also has its own community vegetable garden where residents can grow their own vegetables and herbs whilst also enjoying the company of likeminded gardeners and the fruits of their labour.
With two comprehensive aged care homes on site – Inala Lodge and Alawarra Lodge, residents have peace of mind that should circumstances change, they can move from independent living to low care, through to high care, whilst staying within their own community.
