From all the Residents and Staff at Acacia Cove Village we would like to wish you all a very happy and healthy 2019! Acacia Cove Residents kicked off the New Year with a very successful party with great entertainment which got everyone on their feet, dancing into the new year!

We are looking forward to the re-commencing of the construction on the new apartments being built. If all goes as planned, they should be completed by
March 2019.

Slowly but surely everyone is returning from holiday and things are returning to the normal routine.

Our Acacia Cove Residents like to keep physically active as well as mentally. Most of our activities had a short recess period but a lot of them have already started up again to the Resident’s delight.
