Truly amazing

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!

Great Family Vacation in Destin!

We had a great vacation at Livin' the Dream! We had three kids under 7 and seven adults and we fit wonderfully in the house. The kitchen was very well equipped, and everyone was very comfortable in their own bedrooms. We enjoyed the pool every day and it was a quick walk or golf cart ride to the beach. Mike and Leiann are great hosts and made it very accommodating to enjoy our vacation in Destin.
