Most impressive. Its little wonder that all the residents we met during our visit happily extolled its quality, its facilities and its laid back lifestyle. The general slogan seemed be "we should have come here sooner" The other feature of our visit was the staff. Sandy, Jan and Kim. They were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and showed us every aspect of life in the Resort.
Great facilities, just a little too large re: amount of homes.
The only downside is the Villas are way too close to each other. Noisy neighbors. No privacy. Can hear every conversation especially when phone is on loudspeaker. So inconsiderate. Everything else is amazing.
Palm Lake Care Bargara provides excellent living conditions for residents; well equipped rooms, community facilities delivering a comprehensive program of in-house activities complemented by regular outings, beautifully prepared meals selected from a varied menu, wrapped around the very best clinical care tailored to individual residents.
We come here 2 to 3 times a year to visit my brother-in-law & his wife. Always love coming. A very beautiful place with great facilities & very friendly residents. They really make us feel like part of their community. They have included me on their Australi Day bowls competition & I don't play bowls. Great place & great people.
