Great location

Great location with beautiful views and close to everything — shops, restaurants, and attractions are all within walking distance. However, the cleanliness was a major issue. The place was not clean at all, which really took away from the experience. They really need to focus more on maintaining proper hygiene and cleanliness. If they improve on that, it could be a fantastic stay.

Great Girls Trip

Great condo! Clean and homey, loved the decor. Many little added touches that went above and beyond (Beach supplies: cart, chairs, toys etc…, welcome gifts, and linens!) The kitchen was also well supplied. Loved the pool, balcony, central OC location. Would stay here again!

Girls weekend

We enjoyed our long weekend away and plan on booking again for next year. The condo is in a great location and close to a lot of restaurants and shopping. The hallway closet was a nice touch and we appreciated it. I’m glad that we could still use the pool and that beach essentials were available.

AMAZING CONDO AND LOCATION!!!!

We had an absolutely great experience in Ocean City. The condo was updated and beautiful. My favorite was sitting on the balcony in the early morning watching the dolphins and enjoying the peace and quiet. We had questions about local activities and the owners were very helpful and quick to respond. We recommend staying here 100%

Great location

The condo is in a great location and the owner is extremely responsive. The kitchen had plenty of utensils & pots & pans. The view of the bayside is fantastic especially in the evenings. The only problem we ran into is my sister uses a walker and the bathroom door's were not wide enough for her to enter.

Wow. Just Wow!

I have to say all the fantastic reviews did make me a little suspicious. I mean really, what rental is “perfect”? This one is. THIS ONE. The location is awesome—quiet on the bay side, but a quick walk across the street to the beach made it a breeze to enjoy both sides. We spent a sick amount of time on the crazy large balcony. We visited out there, ate out there, slept out there, and relaxed out there. There was always a breeze and always peaceful. We mostly cooked all of our meals. The kitchen had more than your average rental. Barry and Ruth have thought of everything. Even for amateur gourmet chefs like ourselves. The cookware is very high quality, there were plenty of storage containers (I don’t see that in rentals). We did try to local restaurants: one hit (Ristorante Antipasti—insanely fabulous) and one miss (Tap House—great view, but the food was awful.) The beds were very comfortable and we all slept like babies. The communication was outstanding. The response time from Ruth/Barry was lightening fast. These folks treated us like family. There were so many little things that you just don’t see at other rentals. Things like extra hooks in the bathroom and bedrooms. Tons of pillows and blankets. There were stuffed toys (for little ones) and toys for the beach. There was a whole folder of local restaurants (with comments about the extra good ones). This is the real deal. We can’t wait to come back! Thank you so much Ruth and Barry!!

Loved our stay

2nd year at Bayside Pearl everything about this place is perfect! The view, the pool by the bay and the furniture is comfy! Everything is updated and clean the owners communicate with you and are very nice. I love midtown and the access to beach is so close. To go to beach everything is there as well as to cook and clean. The linen service and parking passes are wonderful! I definitely plan to stay again with my family if I go to OC this is my spot to stay!

Great 2 bedroom condo

Great 2 bedroom condo with beautiful side view of the bay. Short walk to the beach. Close to Jolly Rogers, many restaurants, and a short drive to the boardwalk. Owners were very responsive and hospitable. We have stayed many places in Ocean City but this was one of our favorites. We rented a slip for our boat and Ken and Russ were great as well. We really enjoyed our stay!

Family vacation.

We loved this condo. It was clean, modern and the view of the bay was spectacular. The owners were very sweet and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again. I will say the only negative experience we had was the lifeguard at the pool was pretty abrasive. I know she has a job to do but she seemed to have rubbed a few of the parents the wrong way. Other then that the place was perfect for us.

Great location and beautiful Condo

This best thing about this condo was the easy access to the beach across the street. My parents and sister live in Ocean City and they were able to come and park right on 39th street just steps from the beach. The convention center parking lot is also available for beach parking as well. The condo was super nice and renovated even though you can tell the building is not new. We were lucky enough to have a wonderful bagpipe player come one night and play during the sunset down on the docks. Everyone watched from their balconies and applauded at the end.

About the host

Hosted by Ruth and Barry McGovern

Host profile image
Barry and I came to Maryland right after we married. We have lived in Maryland our whole married life and have raised 3 children here. We have always loved to entertain friends and family and welcome them into our home. Maryland is known for so many treasures and Ocean City being one of them.
We hope this vacation home is a way to help you create lasting memories of your time "by the bay"

Why they chose this property

We love the privacy you have in this unit. It is so relaxing to sit on your private balcony and escape the bustle of Ocean City. But the midtown location gives you the ability to easily get to so much OC has to offer!
