Acacia Cove retirement village
Acacia Cove retirement village is flanked to the east by Wattle Downs Golf & Country Club and to the west by an estuary teaming with aquatic wildlife.
Our magnificent 'Lodge' Community Centre is positioned to maximise the tranquil outlook and spectacular sunset views. The village offers a variety of organised community activities, regular outings and events as well as top quality facilities. With the bowling green, indoor pool and activities room all facing the sun and estuary, comparisons are hard to find. For those relaxed afternoons in the sun, the lounge and restaurant provide the perfect place to sit in the company of friends and neighbours.
Within the community centre is a range of amenities including an open fireplace, billiard table, gym, spa bath, hairdressing salon, nurse's station, library and computers. A beautifully appointed meeting room forms the focal point for all activities from the walking group to the garden club, and provides a place to gather before and after going across the road to the golf course.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
40.9% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.4% No, I enjoy it
-
1.7% Other - I'll share below
Don't overthink this riddle...
I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?

Away overseas in May! Garden Maintenance 🌿
Hi neighbours! Just a quick update — if flights aren’t disrupted due to the current fuel situation, I’ll be heading overseas from 6th May to 23rd May 2026 to celebrate a family member’s wedding 💍 and spend some quality time with family.
In the meantime, I’m still actively tending to clients’ gardens across the South & East Auckland areas. If you’re needing any garden maintenance before I head away, feel free to send me a DM 🌿
Thanks so much for your continued support — it’s always appreciated!
