This was such a beautiful stay if you have a young family they have a bassinet, car seat, highchair, pack, and play. They had all of the necessities and needed in the kitchen, as well as an nice coffee press that I got to spoil myself with. The host responded to me quickly when I had any questions. And they had all of the firewood stocked on site. What was really awesome is that at the checkout process, They said they don’t want us doing any chores and they’ll do all of the laundry and cleaning. Which we still had everything running when we left, but that was awesome. There was also dish soap, dishwasher pods, and washing detergent on site as well as a Roomba.There was plenty of towels and everything on site as well and toiletries in the showers and lotions. It was so comfortable and so clean and right near all of the touristy locations as well as the local food Mart.All the TVs were smart TVs, that you can plug in your information as well as a gaming console, books, games, the pool table, Pac-Man, darts.We also cooked out on the grill while listening to music outside and our niece played on the playset while we also relaxed in the hot tub. It just had everything that you needed.The only thing to know for those that are bringing dogs is it is not fenced and fully so you do need to have them on a leash. But there’s also dog beds, dog toys, and it’s all very clean.

Thank you so much for your wonderful and detailed review, Brittany! It means a lot that you noticed all the little touches we've added to help families, kids, and even furry friends feel right at home. We're so glad you were able to relax with the coffee press, enjoy the hot tub and grill, and make the most of the game room and outdoor spaces while your niece played. We also appreciate you mentioning our checkout process, we want our guests to spend their last morning making memories, not worrying about chores. Thank you for taking such great care of the house during your stay. We appreciate your note about the yard as well. While it isn't fully fenced, we're glad you found the dog amenities helpful, and we always recommend keeping pets on a leash outside. It was a pleasure hosting you and your family, and we'd love to welcome you back anytime you're visiting the Hershey area!

The host was absolutely fantastic with how responsive he was with my questions both before and during our stay. It is a fabulous house and very comfortable to be in for the short time we were there. They provided us with amenities in the bathroom/shower which was so wonderful and lots of treats for the kids (and adults) when we arrived. A couple of small inconveniences which can happen anywhere but the host was immediately on top of anything we needed.

Great stay near downtown Hershey

Booked the Pearl over MLK weekend to attend a hockey tournament centered in Hershey, PA. The house easily accommodated everyone in our group (6 adults). The house was fully stocked with all the creature comforts (coffee, snacks, laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper etc.). Pete was also very accommodating and allowed us a late checkout time that aligned with our tournament schedule. All and all a great location and stay at the pearl. We hope to book again next year!

Perfect Home Away From Home!

We’ve done a lot of VRBO rentals and The Pearl was great! We used this as home base for time spent at Hershey Park and a visit to Penn State for a football game. The house was perfectly appointed with phone charges on each bedside table, plenty of towels and toilet paper and great entertainment! They even had candy and snacks waiting for us on the counter. The kitchen appliances were also top of the line. I wish we had more time there because everything was great!

Family trip

Very nice house. Property manager responded right away to any questions. House was extremely clean and well taken care of. We had 8 guests and it was very comfortable. All of the beds were comfortable and one was an adjustable base which was a nice surprise because we have one at home. My son and nephew had the room with the 2 single beds and there was still room for them to play in there. The house was within 15 of pretty much everything as we did more than just Hershey Park during our stay. Restaurants and grocery store less than 10 minutes
