Retirement Village Information (Last Updated: 20th September 2020)

This facility is owned by Ryman Healthcare Ltd.

Jean Sandel Retirement Village is superbly located on Barrett Road in New Plymouth and is named in honour of a pioneering New Zealander who set the standard for others to follow. The village is perfectly positioned on a sunny site with elevated views of the sea and Mt Taranki.

Jean Sandel offers a full range of comprehensive care options, from the light touch of a serviced apartment to resthome, hospital and specialist dementia care. For those who choose fully independent living in our apartments and townhouses, it’s reassuring to know our care services are there if they ever need them.

For over 35 years, Ryman villages like Jean Sandel have been pioneering what it means to live life to the full in retirement.

Just The BEST !!!!

Service Name: JEAN SANDEL RETIREMENT VILLAGE

Pros

We have now been at Jean Sandel for 3years, and it just keeps getting better. The generosity and kindness of the staff is almost overwhelming, and has been especially so over the Level 4 Lockdown period. The neighbours in the immediate surrounding vicinity of our Town House are also superb. when we celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary our neighbours shared the occassion.with us. The grounds are kept superbly and as we walk through the Village, it feels like a Botanical Garden.

Cons

We cannot think of one negative.

Suggestions to Management or General Comment

It was great to be able to say our personal farewell to Izak for his superb management of the Village, and we have been glad to have the opportunity to say welcome to Michael we look forward to a continuaton of a high level of Management, of both staff and Residents.
