Amazing Family Vacation
This house was perfect for our large family. We couldn’t ask for a better location, the beach is such a short walk you don’t even need shoes and having the chairs and umbrella set up was the icing on the cake.. There Is a grocery store conveniently outside the gates along with shopping and plenty of restaurants near by. We all enjoyed our vacation so much, definitely worth the price!

House was great! Major problem at the beach!
Although the house was great, the HOA at this community chose this time to drain the dirty water from their retention ponds into the beach right in front of us! It smelled bad, not to mention dirtied the beautiful beach for half our stay! We were so disappointed!

Family Vacation at Miramar Beach
Very clean property with plenty of room for our family. We had 14 and everyone was comfortable. The community we were located in is a little cramped and the kids didn’t have good places to ride bikes. Overall, Liahona is a very nice property.

Beautiful property
This house was so beautiful, the beds were so comfortable, the decor was perfect. I loved it. We had a few issues with the cook top. Apparently copper doesn’t work on conduction, so it was very challenging to cook on. I personally like non stick pans, so if I come back I will bring my own pans. I agree with other reviews that balcony furniture would be perfect. Overall I would definitely stay here again.

We (my whole family, 13 people)stayed here the week of Thanksgiving. It was absolutely wonderful! The house was perfect!! We did have an issue with the stove but they more than made up for it! It was literally steps from the beach. If you stay in the cooler months pay three extra to have to pool heated. It was definitely worth it. Our kids stayed in it for hours. 3 beautiful master suites with huge bathrooms & and two bunk rooms with full sized bunk beds. We had the best family Thanksgiving! Our mom died last year in October so we needed a change & this was perfect! We will 100 % rent this house again 💙💙💙

Absolutely beautiful house and location. We had 4 families plus a grandma with us. Going back and forth from the beach with kids and beach stuff was a breeze since it's so close. Some of the most comfortable beds we have slept in while vacationing in Destin. The kids spent every non beach hour playing in the pool and stayed entertained all week. The location by the beach, Winn Dixie, outlets and restaurants in San Destin made this house perfect for our trip.

We had a excellent experience staying in this house and having a private beach within a short walking distance. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We had to call 1 time due to a shower door not closing, and within the hour someone was there fixing it. We would definitely stay in this property again.

We stayed here in March 2019 and couldn’t have had a better experience. The distance from the beach is a few steps and the small pool at the house was perfect for the kids. The house has everything you need in the kitchen along with the grille on the patio that we used multiple times. Great location was close to everything we needed. Will definitely book here again!
