Included with the regular house cleaning fee, our cleaners will either wipe with a disinfectant cloth or spray with an aerosol cleaner, all high touch surface areas.

Great stay with our pup

The screened in outdoor area was exceptionally nice. Our dog enjoyed hanging out in the cooler weather out there. Very nice location that's just a short walk away from the beach.

Great getaway!

The Purple Pearl was a fantastic spot for a weekend getaway with our kids and dog. Lots of space, great location, and the large screened in porch was amazing! We usually stay in Ocean City during our trips to the beach, but we would definitely visit this house in Bethany again.

Great off-season visit to Bethany

The Purple Pearl is a lovely house in a great location in South Bethany. Even off season we enjoyed the amazing screened patio (with infrared heater!). The house was comfortable and had everything we needed as a family.

Out of season oasis

My husband, pup and I stayed at the Purple Pearl for Thanksgiving and it was everything we hoped for. We spent alot of time on the porch under the heater and on the dock when it was warm. The kitchen had everything we needed to make our feast. The beach is so close, we walked there multiple times a day. We hope to spend time here again soon.

The location is perfectly placed, near everything, but not in it.

The home was well set up for multiple occasions and is nicely decorated. The lower section could have been cleaned better, but was a wonderful place to stay.

Convenient but quiet

A friend and I stayed for a few days. I had my fur-babies along. The street was quiet, but close to the beach and some activities. The place was as described and perfect for my dogs. I enjoyed my time there as did my friend.

Perfect R&R getaway

The Purple Pearl was exactly what my family needed. We wanted and needed a stress free Christmas this year and this rental delivered. Upon arrival we were greeted with a lit tree that truly made my day. The owners were always quick to respond to any questions we had - even with it being a holiday weekend. Highly recommend renting the Purple Pearl.

Amazing Relaxing Getaway

This was an amazing experience. A nice quiet neighborhood and a quick walk to the beach. The outdoor seating areas are perfect for any type of weather (fans and a heater)! The house is adorable and very comfortable. We will definitely consider this property for future vacations!! Highly recommend.

Happy as a Purple Pearl

Seriously loved staying here. Cute home with huge outdoor fun! Obviously we stayed here in March so not a ton of outdoor fun was had but it was appreciated all the same. Having a fenced in yard for the pup was beyond amazing. Hoping to stay here again next March ♡♡♡

Tranquil get-a-way

Cozy, beachy, comfortable house located a block from the ocean. Quiet, safe neighborhood with friendly people. Perfect for painting watercolors, and strolls on the miles of beach with my dog. Did not want to return home.

Just what the doctor ordered

We needed a place to stay for the week to be close to my parents during a hospital stay. The house was perfect for our needs. We took our dog and the fenced in yard made it easy for him to go out. The primary bedroom location allowed us to have privacy while we worked. While this wasn’t necessarily a vacation we couldn’t have asked for better accommodations.

Quiet stay in the Quiet Resort

We enjoyed our stay at the Purple Pearl mainly because we could hang out on the screened in porch area most of the time. Our Cocker Spaniel enjoyed it and the fenced-in yard was perfect for her. She met her first duck and got to see the beach for the first time. The heater was well appreciated on the porch since we spent so much time out there.
