On February 23, 2024, the Moorings Village proudly opened its doors, marking a significant milestone in our journey. Brenda and Judy, the trailblazing duo who were the first to join us, had the honour of cutting the ribbon, officially opening then Village to the public. The event was exceptionally well received by all who attended, with all visitors welcomed inside to take their ‘first look’ at the sales villa.
“About 5 years ago I stood on this site for the first time, and I was blown away by what I saw here and the vision that we had for what could be done on this site. It's a bit of a moment in time when you open a new village because there's an awful lot of work that goes in beforehand, you sort of pause, celebrate the moment and then you move on, and there's an awful lot of work still to do. I'm excited about The Moorings and how it fits in the Whitianga Waterways development here and the wider Whitianga community. But also it sits within the Hopper Living team and our four villages. Within our villages, we work hard to create a fantastic environment for our residents. I just want to say thank you to everyone who has contributed to where we are now. ”
