Thank you for your 5-star review, Lynn! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful home and great location. We hope to host you again soon.
We had the best time on a girls trip to 30A! The house was so clean and well decorated. We really enjoyed having the golf cart that was included and the bed swing on the 2nd floor balcony! The host was great when communicating with us and even replied back to a question I had very late at night. Would stay here again!

This property is great for family vacations. The there's plenty of space inside and out. From the upper porch with day swing to the back porch for evening relaxing. Overall our stay was fantastic. Jennifer the contact for the neighbor assisted with all concerns addressing them quickly. I would definitely stay at this property again.

Beach
I felt the information provided did not adequately describe how far and difficult it would be to get to the beach. The State Park is just to far for a senior to walk. Other locations had very limited parking

Thank you for the review, Mike. We're sorry if the beach was further than you were expecting. The closest beach access is Deer Lake, which is a little over half a mile and a quick golf cart ride away with free parking and lots of amenities. We appreciate your feedback and we hope you can visit us again for an enhanced experience.
We had a great stay for the month of Feb. Loved the porches on the front of the house with southern exposure. Glimpse of the gulf and great sunsets. Listing was accurate and the home was quite comfortable. Enjoyed fresh grouper on the grill several times while there !! Panhandle was great to deal with. Had a few minor issues which they took care of immediately. Used the Xplorie concierge service included in the rental for airport transportation and golf, and they were great as well. A+ all around.

Thank you for your fantastic review, Jim! We're thrilled you had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the porch, sunsets, and comfortable home. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back soon!
Perfect location to The Big Chill and the pool. A little difficult to get to the beach as there are not any public beach accesses walking distance from the property and we stayed after the shuttle service stopped for the summer. Amazing house! Important to note that there are no additional supplies provided by the property so for long stays you will need to buy trash bags, toilet paper and paper towels. We also had two door handles that were not properly attached so they kept coming off when you open the door. Overall, would recommend this place! Plenty of space for 6 adults and 2 young children. The golf cart was a huge plus!!

Thank you for the review, April. We're delighted to hear that you had a great stay and enjoyed our property's location and amenities. We appreciate your feedback regarding the access to the beach and the supplies provided, and we'll certainly take that into consideration to improve our guest experience. We're also addressing the issue with the door handles to ensure they are properly attached for future guests. We're thrilled that you would recommend our place, and we look forward to welcoming you and your group back in the future.
The house was very clean and had everything you need for an easy getaway. The only side notes I will make is the house only has a single serve coffee maker. We went to the nearest store and purchased a regular coffee pot. With a house that size, there are bound to be several coffee drinkers. Also, there is not an easy beach access. All of them are difficult to get to if someone in your party has difficulties with stairs or long walks. Also, most beach access points had minimal to no parking. We ended up using the Santa Clara Beach and made it work. The community and pool were awesome! We had a blast at The Hub and it was nice to not have to drive for shops and food! Overall, it was a great stay!

Thank you so much for your review, Cassie! We recommend trying Deer Lake State Park or Santa Clara if you are looking for an easily accessible beach access. With the protected dunes on our beaches, and the area being above sea level, most access points require stairs. Our guests can take a shuttle to the beach between Memorial Day and Labor Day, and we also include a six-seater golf cart for our guests to explore the area. We appreciate your feedback and we hope you can join us again soon!

I am sure this property IS fantastic....
This property looks amazing. However, it wasn't the property we actually wound up with. We still do not know exactly what happened with the mix up, but we were 3 couples and some children staying together and we all wanted a King bed with en suite. This property has it all, it just wasn't what we got. The one we got did not have 3 Kings and an en suite, and did not have a large upstairs balcony with a swing and a view of the gulf. The company did try to make it better - they brought us a grill (because there wasn't one and we planned for that) and a larger golf cart (we had a 4 seater but needed a 6). We liked the properties very much, but were not given any communication about the change until we showed up at a different property. A reimbursement for the difference in the two properties would go a long way in making us feel better.

Amazing house, cute spot, no beach access or view but golf cart helps
This house is stunning!!! They did such a beautiful job decorating and the layout was fantastic. My grandparents stayed on the bottom master and the rest of us stayed upstairs including my 18-month-old and golden doodle…. so we had ample amount of room to spread out. The water pressure and showers were a total dream as were the beds. The little patio porch was so cozy and the pictures did not do it justice! The porches were absolutely a great spot to wind down and the neighbors were so sweet. The golf cart was great to have on 30A because getting to the beach takes effort but we did enjoy going on little rides and discovering new beaches/shops. The only two downsides of this rental was really just the overall location not having beach access and the ice maker being broken was a pain. Not having easy beach access or even a view of the ocean (or sunsets) was a bummer but maybe that was me not reading between the lines on the description. I don’t think it would’ve bothered us as much if we didn’t have a toddler or grandparents who aren’t as stable on their feet.
I will say if you have kids then this spot might be perfect for you because the Hub area had so many kids (and adults) living their best lives dancing away at night.

Thank you for your thoughtful review, Caitlyn! We wanted to confirm that there are gulf views from our home, from the second floor balcony. We especially love the view of sunsets over the water between September and April. Included in the rental is access to a free beach shuttle from Memorial Day to Labor Day, as well as a six-seater golf cart, which our guests can use to drive to any of the nearby public beach access points. We are so glad you enjoyed our home and we hope you can visit us again soon!
Thank you for your five-star review! The rental includes a free beach shuttle to the Santa Clara beach access between Memorial Day and Labor Day. The shuttle makes its rounds about once per hour, and there are two pickup points in Prominence - by the north side pool and by the mail boxes on the south side. We provide our guests with the phone number for the shuttle so they can call or text the driver. Our guests are also able to choose from the dozens of other beach access points in the area, and renters receive a six-seater golf cart with their rental to help them explore the area. We enjoyed hosting your vacation, and we hope you can visit us again soon!
