The gardens are all beautifully looked after.The neighbouring gardens are all very well kept too.The Anchorage Resort was a few minutes away; we loved visiting the cafe on the marina for breakfast, lunch & Happy Hour!It was hard to pack up & leave!

Great house in a perfect spot

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently had a significant birthday celebration with the extended family at memories on the Beachfront. The house was perfect for a multi-generational group with many bedrooms all separated from each other. Everything we needed was supplied. The position of the home is perfect with the sand a few steps away, nice swimming area for little ones and a playground nearby. The views were stunning as we watched dolphins in front of us. The mariner is a couple of minutes walk and a gorgeous place to wander.
