Canal Front Home w/ Dock & Fence. 5 Min walk to the beach! Pet Friendly w/fee

Pros• Location is fantastic! Could not ask for better! Quiet area, quick walk to beach. • Fence was sturdy & secure & under the porch was blocked off.• Screened porch with the heater was great.• The upstairs bedroom suite has a nicer bed, nice view & appears to be newer.• Water pressure is excellent & water is hot!• All communications with property owner were timely.Cons• Unfortunately the cleaning folks do the bare minimum! The house needs a thorough cleaning and bedding & sofa covers need replacing. It is definitely not washed after each guest. • The floor of the house is very wonky, I'd be concerned if there was someone with mobility issues.• The furniture is uncomfortable. Queen bed, sofas, porch furniture. It's just old & worn.In the queen bedroom...• the bedding was stained and covered with pet hair. The mattress pad & pillow covers are also stained & look very unclean & ratty.• There are dust bunnies & dirt under the bed.• There is no hanging space in the closet, just one over the door hanger. • There is one small dresser, it wasn't enough so we lived out of our suitcases.• No fault of the homeowner but previous guests didn't pick up after their dogs.• The upstairs bathroom has a rigged up shower curtain liner because the walk-in shower has no door.• The bathroom needed to be cleaned better, hair on the ceiling and a wad of TP behind the toilet.• In the pics there's a Keurig & coffee maker, brought k-cups only to find out there is no Keurig.

This house would have been perfect if it was a little cleaner. The host was perfect - had an issue with the televisions when we got there and it was handled promptly.Loved that it was pet friendly. My babies loved the yard and the beach. Beach just a 5-minute walk. We grilled out and the grill worked great.The kitchen was nice - microwave in a high, weird space. Had everything I needed (bring your own kitchen towels).A little disappointed in the cleanness of the unit. Floors definitely were not cleaned before our arrival (we could tell by our socks).I think with a little upgrade on the cleaning, this would be a great place to enjoy your vacation.

Had a great time for our 10th anniversary trip. Close to everything we wanted to do and loved the screened in porch!

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.

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.

Area was amazing house is simply adorable! Quiet neighborhood -Great views and outdoor is so relaxing!Hope to visit again soon! The town of Bethany is adorable right in between the hustle and bustle of area beaches.

Everything was perfect!

The yard, deck, and water access are definitely what makes this property.

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 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.

We enjoyed our stay. The listing was accurate and well equipped.
