This beach house was one of the BEST my family & I has stayed in . BEAUTIFUL,BEAUTIFUL HOME! The owners are so kind , we had no issues with anything & the smallest thing we needed help with Mike came right out & assisted us with it . The house was very clean , smelled amazing . 3-5 min walk to beach . 10/10 DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!! We will be back forsure .

This was by far our best stay in Destin. The accommodations were perfect and clean. we loved the kitchen/family room. We could cook and enjoy conversation with family while doing so.The host was proactive in making sure we were comfortable and set up for a lovely successful stay. Thank you Mike our family really enjoyed our stay. We will definitely make this our next vacation rental. Tony

We had an amazing stay! The host was very communitive and responded quickly to my messages. The house is very nice and clean. It is also in a perfect location.

Such a great stay for our family of 10. Fully stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, super comfortable beds. The golf cart is 100% worth it for convenience, the beach isn’t FAR but with tents, coolers, etc the golf cart made things much easier. So nice to spend the day at the beach and be able to spend the evening after dinner in the pool. Mike is a great and courteous host. We will be visiting again!

We stayed at Living the Dream for a week. Location to the beach is great! We did rent the golf cart which was absolutely perfect especially with little kids. The golf cart served as morning and evening entertainment for the kids and of course transporting people and chairs to the beach. Makes getting to the beach a breeze. Walking to the beach was super easy too. The house is a great place to stay. Everything you need is right there. We had to contact Mike a couple of times for things 100% out of his control and he responded within minutes. It really is so nice that the owner of this property (and not a third party company) communicates directly with us! He was so extremely pleasant and made everything so easy. One of the family members accidentally left some internet items behind. Michael was so responsive and had to go out of his way to get it returned. We so much appreciate his care and concern. On top of the great communication we were able to check in 2.5 hrs early!!! Not that it happens all the time but other places we have rented were so strict on the 4pm arrival time! It was nice working with someone that has the reflexibility of saying "yes, we are ready for you!" The location is so convenient to so many stores, restaurants and shops. Remember, rent the golf cart!!!! Thank you to Mike and Leiann for helping to make our week with the family that much better!!!

This house was ideal for our family and itinerary! We used the golf cart for getting to the beach. We used the pool for relaxing after fun-filled days at the beach. We had easy drives to stores and excursions (Crab Island, helicopter tour, shopping for our teenage girls, family photo shoot at the beach, etc.). The kitchen was fully stocked for our occasional cooking, and the house had ample towels, pillows, pool toys, beach items, etc. – no shortage of any essentials whatsoever. Michael was exceptionally kind and responsive and helpful from initial reservation to questions along the way and check-in and check-out. Our family of 9 was thrilled with how this house enabled such a fantastic and memorable vacation. We’ll seek this house when we return in a year or two!

This is a great property with a great location, about two blocks from beach. Michael is a great host, very friendly and very accommodating. Would definitely recommend this property to others. Loved the pool as well. Randomly meet someone who had previously sounded at this property and she highly recommended this property as well.

First our host was accessible and so kind. He even mailed back my husband’s chargers. The home was very clean and comfy, especially for our family of 10. Also when entering and leaving Destin you are close to the bridge. We rented the golf cart and it was very handy, especially getting all our gear to the beautiful beach and running to Marble Slab. You are close to the grocery stores and more. The pool and backyard was perfect for all. We spent every afternoon there. The neighborhood is so charming, as is the house. We loved it there. It was all perfect!
