The Hub is a family hot spot for entertainment. It features an outdoor 25-ft. LED theater screen, which plays, on the green, various sporting events and movies. Concerts, family activities, restaurants, and boutique shops (including Luke Bryan’s new cigar shop) are just some destinations within a 5-minute walk. Prominence is perfectly placed right in the middle of Seaside & Seagrove Beach, to the west, and Alys & Rosemary, to the east. This resort is located less than 15 miles from Pier Park.

While staying at the Prominence, you have many close by options!

Less than a mile away (about a 5-minute golf cart ride or less than a 10-minute walk! Must pay to park: cars and golf carts (approximately $3 per vehicle/cart) and bicycles ($2). I recommend arriving early, as parking is limited. Once full, the entrance will close. No beach service is provided here.

Just 2½ miles down the road. Take a left at Lakewood Drive and follow the curve until you see the parking lot for cars/golf carts. Beach service is provided here, but there are no other amenities.
