Stockwell Identifies Lifestyle Resort Trend Early
The concept of lifestyle resorts has gained significant momentum in recent years, particularly among the over 50's community. Stockwell’s success story is Solana Lifestyle Resorts, which has carved a niche in providing good value, resort-like living environments along the Queensland coast. With four prime locations, Solana Lifestyle Resorts offer not just a home but an enriching community experience tailored to the needs of downsizers and retirees.
Stockwell was an early identifier of the lifestyle resort trend, recognising the potential for a thriving market of ageing Australians seeking a vibrant, relaxing, and fulfilling retirement. The growing trend of coastal migration in retirement has supported the growth of Solana Lifestyle Resorts, providing new housing options for those looking to make the most of their golden years.
Solana Lifestyle Resorts offers numerous benefits, including:
Low-Maintenance, Thoughtfully Designed Homes
Newly built homes at Solana come with clever two- and three-bedroom floorplans designed to minimise maintenance requirements while maximising living space. This means that residents can spend more time enjoying their retirement and less time worrying about home upkeep.
Financially Beneficial Downsizing
Downsizing to a lifestyle resort can be a financially savvy decision. Smaller, more efficient homes often have lower ongoing expense plus the sale of a larger family home can provide a financial windfall, allowing residents to allocate resources towards superannuation or their hobbies, travel, or other leisure activities.
Convenient Proximity to Amenities
Solana locations prioritise convenience and ease of access to essential services. Strategically located near shopping centres and services, residents can access everything close to home.
Resort-Style Facilities
One of the standout features of Solana is the access to a range of resort-like facilities. Centred around the resort’s Livewell Centre, residents can enjoy swimming pools, gymnasiums, tennis courts, cinemas, workshops, and other amenities that encourage relaxation, leisure, and socialisation. These facilities make it easy for residents to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle without leaving their community's comfort.
Fostering Social Connections
Each Solana Lifestyle Resort is designed to foster a strong sense of community and promote social connections. With a variety of interest groups, activities, and events, residents can easily meet like-minded individuals and form lasting friendships. This supportive and engaging social environment can significantly enhance the quality of life for those in their retirement years, combating loneliness and promoting overall well-being.
Bribie Island was the first Solana Lifestyle Resort, which has since sold out and become home to over 300 residents. The success of this inaugural resort is a testament to the quality and desirability of the Solana Lifestyle Resort experience.
Building on the success of Bribie Island, Stockwell has expanded the Solana Lifestyle Resorts brand to include three new locations: Agnes Water, Hervey Bay, and Mackay’s Northern Beaches. With each new resort, Stockwell continues to refine and enhance its offerings, catering to the evolving needs and preferences of the over 50's market. Furthermore, Stockwell has plans to develop additional locations in the future, ensuring that even more ageing Australians can enjoy the Solana Lifestyle Resort experience.
Stockwell's Solana Lifestyle Resorts have become synonymous with affordability, comfort, and community for the over 50's demographic whether downsizing, semi-retired or retired. As more people embrace the idea of resort-style living in their later years, Solana Lifestyle Resorts is poised to continue its growth and success, transforming the lives of ageing Australians for years to come.
