Winara has beautiful views of Kapiti Island and Reikorangi Valley.

We’re just two minutes from the centre of Waikanae, where you can go shopping, visit the library or enjoy the many cafes and restaurants with your friends and family.  

Our rooms are spacious, meaning you can bring your own furniture to make yourself feel at home. Our large lounge and dining areas are great places for you to get to know the other residents or chat with your family whilst enjoying the view.

If you like to get out and about, we regularly visit places of interest around the area, the local cinema or restaurants for a meal. We also visit other rest homes and compete against them in inter-rest home games competitions. You can get involved as much or as little as you like - it’s up to you how your spend your day.

We have a very diverse team of carers from all over the world so there’s always someone interesting to talk to. We know everyone’s different, which is why we like to get to know you as an individual so that the care we give you can be tailored specifically to how you like things done. When it comes to making decisions about your care, we always speak with you and your family so we can make sure your wishes are respected.
