Victoria Landing ALF in Melbourne, FL

5.0
This is a quality place to live. I'm at a different facility now, closer to family, but not as nice as Victoria Landing. The waterfront view was what sold me at the time but I grew to love the activities and the food. The care my husband received was above and beyond during his final days.
