As we navigate the evolving landscape of housing solutions for the over-50s demographic, one notable trend is the increasing popularity of lifestyle resorts. Identified by Stockwell as a growing asset class, these communities offer a unique blend of independence, community, and convenience that caters specifically to the needs and preferences of active seniors.
This article delves into the reasons behind this growing trend and highlights how Solana Lifestyle Resorts, Stockwell portfolio of resorts, embodies the best features of this housing model.

Understanding Lifestyle Resorts
Lifestyle resorts, also known as land lease communities or manufactured home parks, provide an attractive alternative to traditional retirement villages. They cater primarily to those over 50 who seek to maximise their lifestyle in a secure and supportive environment. These resorts differ significantly from aged care facilities and retirement villages.
These communities are designed for independent living and residents in these communities own their homes while leasing the land on which they are situated. This offers several benefits including: no stamp duty, no entry or exit fees, the freedom to appoint their own selling agent and retention of any capital gains from the sale of their property.
Moreover, the legal framework governing these communities, such as the Manufactured Homes (Residential Parks) Act 2003 in Queensland, ensures transparency and security for homeowners.

The Appeal of Solana Lifestyle Resorts
Stockwell has harnessed its extensive experience in creating and managing properties for owner occupiers to create Solana Lifestyle Resorts. These resorts offer a seamless blend of community living and personal freedom, making them appealing choices for downsizers and retirees.
Solana Lifestyle Resorts are designed to provide a low-maintenance lifestyle with shared recreational facilities. One of the key advantages of Solana Lifestyle Resorts is the sense of community they foster. Residents can enjoy a vibrant social life with like-minded neighbours while also having the privacy and comfort of their own homes. The resorts cater to various lifestyles, whether you are single or part of a couple, working or retired.
Stockwell’s commitment to its residents extends beyond the initial home purchase. The resort manager, Stockwell Living, oversees the maintenance and management of the community, ensuring high standards of service and support.
The trend towards lifestyle resorts reflects a shift in how we envision retirement and active living for the over 50s.
