St. Johannis Lifestyle Estate is a retirement village on the slopes of the Tygerberg Hills in Parow, Cape Town. It was inaugurated in 1981 as St. Johannis Heim, an initiative of the Lutheran Church and the German-speaking community in Cape Town, and is run by the St. Johannis Organisation, a registered non-profit and public benefit organisation. According to the home's website, it has 31 townhouses/cottages and 67 apartments for independent seniors, 46 beds for assisted living, 24 beds in the Frail Care Unit and 16 in the Johanniter Memory Care Unit. Independent units can be rented or bought on sectional title or life right. St. Johannis Mountain View offers single and double unfurnished rooms to rent on a short or long-term basis. The website describes 24-hour professional medical care, and 24/7 care and supervision in the memory care unit.
