Retirement & care in Cape Town Southern Suburbs

Rondebosch to Constantia: established villages close to private hospitals and family in the city.

Why families look here

The Southern Suburbs (Rondebosch, Claremont, Kenilworth, Wynberg, Plumstead, Bergvliet and Constantia) have some of the oldest retirement villages in the province. Families choose them to keep a parent close to where they already live, near GPs, specialists and private hospitals such as Netcare Kingsbury and Mediclinic Constantiaberg.

Most of the area is about 20 to 30 minutes from Cape Town International. Expect older, well-established villages with long waiting lists for frail care beds, so it is worth getting a name on a list early.
