Vacation
Trash can was very small- garbage never came Thursday- very few things to cook with- no mixing bowls , containers to put things in- pans etc The master was spacious- other bedrooms were really small. The kitchen island was great - liked the porches

Beautiful home and location
Entire stay was amazing. Master bedroom toilet is not flushing correctly and has an odor during the evenings. House is beautiful and service was excellent. Giving 4 stars due to the lack of concern from the maintenance individual with the toilet not flushing correctly.

Great Week at Live Life
We had a wonderful week at Live Life. The house was perfectly situated in the Emerald Waters neighborhood. Easy walk to the beach and even easier to the pools. Our group of 6 (2 adults, 2 teens, and 2 pre-teens) had plent of space -- the house was exactly as described. We really enjoyed the patios. The large open kitchen/living area was nice, as well. Having a couple beach chairs and boogie boards available was a nice perk. The beach was much better than the beaches closer to Rosemary/Seacrest, too -- more spacious and less crowded. We highly recommend this house!

Great Neighborhood for Vacation
Close to henderson state park (5 mi).
Quiet and walkable. Unit is a big duplex but not all home are. Good parking. Nice pools.
Can walk thru gates to the beach with some steps maybe too many for some. We preferred riding to Henderson Park as easier on some family to access beach and restrooms— very nice. Teens could even walk to Alvins for shopping for skim boards or other beach stuff. Kitchen roomy and balconies nice. Watch out for sprinklers as ours soaked the outside dining at 5 pm. Too cold ac on 72 when we arrived and needed help with nest thermostat. Caled management and very helpful. Directions booklet might help save them some calks. Will go again to Miramar area and may try this place again!

Perfect Getaway Spot!
Literally a 5 minute walk to the beach, this home was perfect for our family of six. Recent renovations made the home an incredible vacation for our family. Very close to a number of good food options and in a gated community. Truly a bargain spot for a high class beach vacation to the Emerald Coast. You won’t be disappointed with the home or the beach!
