Renee Straguszi, whose family created the award-winning Lakes Resort and apartment complex Cairns One, said the start of underground development is a “pivotal moment” in the $72 million development of a new retirement living brand.
The Cairns real estate agent and her family have spent the past nine years creating a vision they claim is “redefining the concept of retirement living”. It will offer ageing-in-place facilities and on-site respite care.
The village will feature a central piazza, heated pool, gym, and café, alongside an on-site medical care with a doctor, nurse, and respite services. Residents services also include a bar, restaurant, hairdresser, nail salon, library, workshop, convenience store, and a community bus.
“This project extends beyond constructing homes; it is about fostering a thriving community with exceptional amenities and support. Our commitment is to provide an outstanding living environment for our residents,” Renee said.
Casa Mia's first residents are expected to move in by late 2025.
