The Alba has been designed with you in mind delivering the perfect balance of style, elegance, and comfort across eleven levels. Our Better Together design principles ensure that your wellbeing and quality of life remain our core focus. This focus is central to every element of design throughout the building and the way in which we provide services.

We’ve designed each suite to provide the comforts of home while maximising space and mobility, accommodating your changing needs, and ensuring your privacy and independence. Make it your own by personalising it with treasured belongings, photos, artwork and mementos.
Suites at The Alba are visionary in design featuring the small household model to make you feel right at home. Each self-contained household has its own kitchen, dining room and living room.

We have a range of innovative, bespoke services that ensure you are supported and cared for according to what you want. Our vision is to provide older people with accommodation and care that promotes dignity, independence, confidence and safety, while bringing joy to residents and their families. We call this person-centred approach our Better Together model and this lies at the very heart of The Alba.
Community is paramount, with opportunities for companionship and connection in a stimulating environment. You will always feel safe and secure, with discreet security measures in place. Our innovative and forward-thinking design harnesses new technologies that will benefit you, while incorporating sustainable solutions that allow us to work towards a better future.
