About this property

The HAPPIEST place to stay on 30-A…HAPPY HOUR 🌴⛱<br>

Welcome to Happy Hour! Our beach vacay rental is intended to bring a smile to your face the minute you arrive. Let’s face it, the demands of life are crazier than ever, and so getting away from it all is vital! We have made every effort to ensure that our guests have everything they need for a vacation full of precious memories!
The Skinny on Happy Hour… designed to allow ease of togetherness, the kitchen, living area and dining area are spaciously open to one another. Conveniently tucked just around the corner, you will find the laundry room, powder room, a closet and the doorway to the garage. In the garage, we have for your enjoyment, 6 adult bicycles (not the janky kind either, we dont want our guests on the side of the bike path with a flat tire or broken chain) from Frankie’s Bike Shop. You will also find beach chairs, along with an Umbrella, coolor, and several additonal items that we thought you might find useful. If you need a beach towel, they are located in the laundry room in the bin on shelf. Now that you are back inside, once you are at the top of the stairs, to your right is bathroom with a tub/shower combo. Next is the 3rd bedroom, aka the “Bunkroom” with built in, full over full beds and a smart t.v. for each bed, a nice size closet and plenty of floor space to move about. Bedroom #2 offers a spacious closet, smart t.v. and features a queen bed. The master bedroom offers a king size bed, huge closet, mini coffee station (in case you like a soft start without interaction with the rest of your crew🤣) smart t.v. and en-suite bath with 2 sinks, partially seperated from the tub and large tile shower. (one evening as everyone was getting ready to go for dinner, I realized that the bathroom could easily accomodate 3 people so we added a blind of sorts between the shower and the double vanity. Indoor/Outdoor Sunbrella curtain panels topped with a coordinating awning, create the perfect little cabana to provide the privacy needed.)
Almost forget to mention WIFI! We have Fiber Internet and although my knowledge of such would fit on a pin head, I am told it will allow all of the dependent devices and equipment do what they are suppose to do!

Prominence has curbside trash pickup bi weekly, we strongly recommend placing the garbage can out on Monday night and Thursday night pickup is Tuesday and Friday morning, times always seem to vary. Please return garbage can to garage after pick up.

*Larry is one of my best friends husbands, kinda uptight until he isnt. He will ask you for things you have never heard of. We all have that friend and we love them anyhow.
DIrectly across the road, one of 30A’s favorite spots is The Big Chill (formerly The Hub) on beautiful 30A. The BIG CHILL, an Amphitheater with live entertainment nightly throughout most of the year, a large lawn for the littles to enjoy, oodles of food options, an ice cream shop and a candy store. Don’t forget to pickup a tshirt from Live Well 30A. Steps away, you will discover a variety of specialty boutiques, from clothing, accessories, art, Frankies Bike Shop Bikes, Luke Bryans’s, Shore Thing Cigars, and more!

On the Southside, you will find an additional pool, although much smaller, every bit as beautiful. (this pool is not heated)
***Please note Prominence does not have direct beach deeded access***
Happy Hour is less than a mile to the nearest beach access, with multiple beach access options located all along 30A, you are never far from your Perfect Beach! Feel free to mesage me for details of additional beach accesses or with any other questions that you may have.
FREE trolley service is offered to all Prominence guests Memorial Day through Labor Day, 9am-4pm!

Perfect
Christy, the owner, was extraordinary! She went above and beyond to help with anything we needed help with pertaining to our stay. Everything was as shown and much better! Very clean and well managed. The house has a fun aesthetic to it! My girls loved the Apple HomePod the house had! Lots of dancing went on! First time to not stay on the beach. Was a little skeptical at first. Usually, we stay in seaside. This place did not disappoint! Was a great hit for my teenagers and 21 year old. There was no hassle at all going to the beach. Definitely recommend! Thank you Christy for everything!

NOT the happiest place to stay on 30A
I want to start my review by saying I rarely leave reviews, positive or negative. This is the rare occasion when I am sitting down to write this review to make others aware of my experience. Pros: Beautiful decor. Great neighborhood to ride bikes. Wonderful pool. Cons: Food burned onto bottom of oven. Issues with 2 toilets being clogged, resolved with plumbers, downstairs toilet non working the next day (never used again). Gas stove emitting gas (safety hazard per gas company) which resulted in gas company being called. Grease caked inside left front burner which per the gas company was a fire hazard. Leak in vent hood over stove which filled the stove with water. Dust and possible mold in filter above vent hood. Downstairs toilet flushed/overflowed on day 7 when using the garbage disposal (even though had not been in use since day 2, but all plumbing is connected), which caused urine and feces to fill the bathroom and hallway--which was stepped in by myself--and from an unknown source. I have pictures and video documentation. Communication: Good initially until I reached out regarding the urine and feces covering the floor. Since then, no text or message within VRBO has been responded to. When I requested a refund, the communicated ceased. I'm not sure if these issues were present prior or if I had a run of absolutely terrible luck. Hoping that Christi will do the right thing and refund due to multiple issues, safety/fire hazards and sanitary concerns. RENTER BEWARE!!

Awesome Stay
We had the best time during our stay! The property is super clean and in a great location. We had plenty of options for dining and things to do nearby. Beach access was a short drive away. The host is so kind and helpful! Highly recommend!

Perfect stay
Thankful for a wonderful vacation at a very nice condo! The decor was whimsical and made it extra fun for our children. The beds were very comfortable, which isn’t always the case when you travel. Our checkin and checkout process was seamless and communication with the owner was easy and efficient. We would definitely stay here again!

Super clean and extremely well kept!
Great unit that we very clean, well stocked with everything you for cooking and enjoying the beach. Loved the bikes, chairs and the beach chairs! Beds were very comfortable and everything was as listed on the VRBO listing. Hub was great option for entertainment and feed as well. Beach is not within walking distance and would highly recommend a golf cart to make it easy. Overall great experience and will come back again!

About the host

Host profile image
My family has been vacationing on 30A for years and there is nothing like the Gulf Coast Beaches. It is most definitely our happy place!

Why they chose this property

We bought our home in the Summer of 2016 and we absolutely LOVE it. Prominence is located at the East end of 30a and it is perfectly placed between Rosemary & Alys Beach and Watersound, Seagrove, & Seaside. Prominence boasts a beautiful pool & a gym facility. The best thing about Prominence is being located directly across from The Big Chill, formerly The Hub. We think The Big CHill best thing on 30a and it is the perfect place for dining & entertainment for everyone. Come and see for youirself.
