Green Gables Care Suites focus on the design of the space as much as the care we provide, whether it’s your own suite or a space to share with your partner.
With just 61 Care Suites on site, Green Gables has an intimate, friendly feel that will soon make you feel right at home. Situated in the heart of Nelson, you have an array of cafes, restaurants and shops on your doorstep and are well positioned for visitors to stop by.
Care Suites provide both Rest Home and Hospital level care, which means you can relax knowing you won’t have the upheaval of moving again if your care needs increase. At Green Gables you can choose from either a studio Care Suite with an open-plan bedroom and lounge, or a one-bedroom Care Suite with a separate bedroom and living area.
All Care Suites come complete with a heat pump and full en-suite bathroom, as well as a kitchenette with a fridge and a kettle – perfect for making a cuppa when friends and family come to visit. We also have options with private balconies and/or patios.
You own the right to occupy your Care Suite, so you can personalise it with your favourite furniture and treasured pieces. A Health New Zealand – Te Whatu Ora assessment is not required for care that is paid for privately.
A Couples Care Suite offers the same assistance and comfort as an individual suite, but with the reassurance of having a loved one right by your side.
To accommodate the both of you, our Couples Care Suites are more spacious and designed to keep you living together. All Couples Care Suites offer Rest Home and Hospital level care to suit both of your ongoing individual needs*.
With your one-bedroom suite, you’ll enjoy a private ensuite, separate living area and very own kitchenette. But feel free to bring along your own home comforts to really make the space your own.
*Specialist dementia care (secure dementia care or psychogeriatric care) is not available in a Couples Care Suite.
We know that no one is more of an expert in what you need than you, so together with you and your family, our team of highly skilled Registered Nurses take the time to develop Personalised Care Plans. These detailed plans include your likes and dislikes across 18 key aspects, from medical history and risk of falls to family relationships, culture, and spirituality. Updated every six months, they enable us to get to know you and provide the highest quality aged care experience suited to you.
Food is vital for good nutrition, but it’s also one of life’s great joys. Led by a team of skilled chefs, every meal is carefully-considered to ensure taste and nutrition are balanced equally. We look to culinary trends and your personal preferences to refine and update our menus every six months, keeping them up to date with what’s in season and on-trend, ensuring that dining at Green Gables is always something to be savoured.

At Oceania, wellbeing is holistic and person-centred, shaped by lifestyle, connection, culture, creativity, movement and individual choice. Guided by the Five Ways to Wellbeing, our teams create meaningful, uplifting experiences each month. From walking together to raise funds for mental health through initiatives like Step Together, Better Together, to taking part in the New Zealand Garden Bird Survey and contributing to conservation research, residents are supported to connect, be active, take notice, keep learning and give back in ways that feel purposeful and rewarding.
The Five Ways to Wellbeing are based on research showing that small, everyday actions can have a powerful impact on how we feel. At Oceania, this framework helps shape the experiences we create across our villages and care centres, supporting residents to live well in ways that feel natural and meaningful.
The Five Ways are:
Connect – Building relationships, sharing stories and spending time with friends, neighbours and family.
Be Active – Moving in ways that suit your body and ability, supporting strength, balance and mood.
Take Notice – Slowing down to appreciate the moment, whether that’s a garden in bloom or a shared laugh.
Keep Learning – Staying curious, trying something new and continuing to grow at every stage of life.
Give – Sharing your time, kindness, skills or experience with others.
Our team strives to thoughtfully weave these principles into everyday life, creating opportunities for residents to stay connected, active and engaged in ways that reflect their own interests, culture and life story. In doing so, residents are supported to continue finding purpose, enjoyment and a genuine sense of belonging.
Our National Wellbeing Calendar offers a snapshot of the meaningful moments and experiences enjoyed across Oceania villages throughout the year. To see what wellbeing looks like at a specific village, we encourage you to get in touch with your local team for a site-specific overview.
