Shoalwater is a suburb nestled between Warnbro Sound & Shoalwater Bay, with Penguin Island close by and the ocean theme has been used to name the five areas, Dolphin Cove, Penguin Cove, Osprey Cove, Pelican Cove and Ocean Cove. We have regular excursions in the minibus with our residents to the ocean and enjoy tea & coffee whilst admiring the view and we are close to Shoalwater Shopping Centre, which hosts a coffee shop, supermarket and takeaway eateries. Accommodation comprises of single and double rooms with a large ensuite bathroom and air conditioning. The different areas or "coves" all have lounge and dining areas and access to extensive gardens and patio areas. There are BBQ areas in all the Coves and residents and families are welcome to make use of them. We also have a theatre room and a private dining area.

Staff were friendly and compassionate. Thank you to the staff for their kindness.
My family and I would like to give a huge THANK YOU to Aegis Shoalwater, and the wonderful, beautiful, caring nurses, carers, and staff, for looking after our Mum, who has now passed away peacefully on the 5th January 2023. We are very appreciative towards everyone in the Oceans section for the way you always made Mum feel, not only really well looked after, but also the way you treated her like she was your own Mum, by always reassuring her, kissing and hugging her, sitting with her and chatting on many occasions, especially towards the end of her life, where she was given a lot of tenderness, patience and dignity. As a big family that visited Mum each day, we found Aegis Shoalwater to be very clean, great meals, and patient care is 5 star. This is a wonderful aged care facility, and my family and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Very nice and secure facility, caring staff, showed us everything to care for every aspect of aged care🥰🥰
To all the staff, nurses and carers - you've all been wonderful to my Mum while she's been with you. She's been well looked after, and you've been a great support to my family, mainly Dad and myself. Thank you all so much.
I wish to thank all the staff at Aegis Shoalwater my mother could not have had better treatment. Every staff member that cared for my mum showed tenderness and patience and i can't thank them all enough for making an unbearable situation bearable. Thank you all again and if i could give more than 5 stars i would.
