The growth of the ‘grey nomad’ trend continues with Tourism Research Australia suggesting as many as 40,000 retirees travel domestically each quarter.

Some have chosen to downsize their home and upsize their life permanently. Then there are those very clever ones who enjoy the best of all worlds.

Ingenia Lifestyle residents are typically over 55 and no longer need the encumbrances of a large family home.

People looking forward to the next exciting chapter of their lives who appreciate the flexibility that comes with having a secure home base, as well as the freedom to explore the country entirely on their own terms.

Ingenia Lifestyle operates communities in 35 locations across Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, many of which include provisions specifically for people who love to travel, including space to store your caravan, motorhome or boat.

“When you’ve spent your whole life working hard, raising children, contributing to your community, there comes a time when you’re finally able to do what you want,” said Ingenia Lifestyle Executive General Manager - Residential Communities, Justin Blumfield.

“For many, that means upping stumps and exploring this great country of ours.”

All Ingenia Lifestyle neighbourhoods are safe and secure, with plenty of friendly neighbours and a community manager to keep an eye on things while you’re away.

“Ingenia Lifestyle is all about freedom,” Justin said.

“People in our communities know that while they are away, they don’t have to worry about a thing. Just lock up and leave.”

And the icing on the cake for Ingenia Lifestyle residents is discounted stays at Ingenia holiday parks in stunning locations along Australia’s east coast.

As part of the family, Ingenia Lifestyle residents receive a Gold Card which entitles them to 25% off any Ingenia holiday park.
