Mum had a respite stay at Arcare Balnarring and it was incredible. The staff were genuinely caring, kind, and always went above and beyond. Communication was great, and I was always kept in the loop. The lifestyle team offered so many wonderful activities, and the accommodation was absolutely beautiful—luxurious yet homely. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Just wanted to let you know we all (young & old) had a fabulous day at Arcare Balnarring for the Mad Hatter Tea Party!! We were completely taken aback by the level of decoration and thought and planning that had gone into the day and all the staff costumes were a big hit, everyone was so enthusiastic and up for a fun day!!! Realise its a big effort to prepare & no doubt clean up!!, but certainly worth it from our perspective. One of the best events we have ever attended anywhere, everything was just perfect and to see those tables groaning with delicious food of all types was a sight to behold!! Well done Gail, Abbey and the whole team Balnarring Team that helped put together a memorable event - it was just wonderful special day and you all deserve a BIG STAR AWARD!!! Best Wishes from the Robinson Family - Resident, Children & Great Grandchildren all thoroughly enjoyed this professional social event for all ages!!

We could get not have found a nicer place for my Mother. The staff, especially those in Tulum wing, were always caring and understanding. The modern facilities available are first rate and there are a variety of activities for the residents to enjoy. Accessibility is also very good.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and well maintained facilities. We the residents are encouraged to join in social interaction, but also left to do our own thing if so wanted.

The staff & facilities are quite good, always clean & attended to. If seeking comfortable aged care with few medical issues this is ideal, however it will be less suitable for residents with declining/degenerative illnesses. Only 3 stars because this fact will not be mentioned during the interviews, or advised after intake medical check. While the word care is used twice in the business name, it is still a business. When searching for openings or to secure a spot for people you care about, the most important factor is how much that organisation cares for your loved ones comfort & wellbeing.

Arcare Balnarring excels at delivering the best care for their residents. The carers and other members of the healthcare team are respectful and friendly, and most of all, they prioritise the needs of their residents. Their facility is one of the best I have seen so far. It is a very welcoming, vibrant, and cosy place. Food is great. And the residents are very nice and friendly. A very dear friend of mine stayed here, and they gave her the best possible care she needed. For this, I am truly grateful to everyone at Arcare Balnarring.

Such a fabulous place, we are so lucky that my mum is able to be at Arcare Balnarring. The staff are fabulous and always go out of their way to have a chat & help out in any way they can. Lots of fun activities for the Residents to participate in. Such a beautiful clean residence, lime being in a hotel. 😊

What a wonderful community our mother has joined. The staff are kind, caring and supportive. She has made some great friends, her health and diet has improved along with her fitness. It's like she's started a whole new stage of her life. Thanks to everyone at Arcare Balnarring.
