Cheers to an award-winning lifestyle
Our customer experience is award-winning. Thanks to the votes of New Zealanders, we’re honoured to receive the Reader’s Digest Quality Service Award for 2027 and to be named New Zealand’s Most Trusted Aged Care and Retirement Village Brand for 2026.
For almost 30 years, Summerset has been guided by a deep respect for residents and the philosophy of creating villages and homes that you’d be proud to live in. From our first village in Whanganui in 1997 to 40 villages across New Zealand today, we create welcoming environments where residents can enjoy life now, with confidence for the future.
These awards reflect the pride our teams take in providing the best possible service. Ensuring every resident experience is delivered by a friendly, dedicated and caring team who feel like family. We’re also committed to continual improvement, regularly surveying residents to ensure we deliver the quality services and facilities that matter most to them.

"Trust is something you earn, not something you assume. For us, it’s built every day through the care our people provide, the way we support residents and their families, and the communities we create across our villages. On behalf of Summerset, I want to thank New Zealanders who voted for us, our residents and their families for placing their trust in us, and to acknowledge our teams around the country for the commitment and pride they bring to their work."
Scott Scoullar, Summerset CEO
