The best memories are made at the beach! Purple Surf is the perfect space to relax & enjoy time with your family and friends. Just seconds from the beach, where you can soak in the sun all day! Enjoy grilling, dinner, and cornhole while your kids play in the enclosed yard with playset. Close to stores & restaurants, but not too close for the noise. After a long day of fun, unwind and watch one of the six ROKU TVs, play some board games, or challenge each other on the classic arcade machine!

Purple Surf is a 1700 sqft home that has 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, a fully equipped kitchen with both drip-style coffee machine and Keurig-style coffee machine.

    We had such a great stay at this vacation home! It was the perfect setup for families, with plenty of space for a multi‑family group with an ocean view and a fantastic game room that kept the kiddos entertained for hours. The fully fenced‑in yard was a huge bonus it helped keep the little ones safe and contained, which gave us great peace of mind. Inside, the home was spotless and stocked with everything we needed to feel right at home, a grill, plenty of cookware, extra blankets and bedding, and even a washer and dryer. It’s clear the hosts put a lot of thought into making sure guests have a comfortable, stress‑free stay. Although the January weather and an incoming winter storm kept us from enjoying many outdoor activities, we noticed tons of fun options for better weather boogie boards, outdoor games, a small swing set, and even a Jacuzzi under the really cool covered deck area below the house. Even though we stayed inside more than expected, the home made it easy to relax and enjoy time together. We’d absolutely love to come back when the weather is warmer to take advantage of everything this place has to offer!

    We had a great stay at Purple Surf! Loved how close it was to the beach and all the toys available for the kids to have fun in the sand. The kids had fun with the arcade room too!The views from the deck were great and many morning cups of coffee were enjoyed listening to the birds. Check-in was easy and the house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Host was responsive to all questions and concerns.As mentioned in other reviews the road noise was near constant and all the living space is up a flight of stairs. We knew this going in so nothing negative on the host, but is certainly something to note if you have family that may be challenged by daily stair use.

    Purple Surf was the perfect home for my family and I. Accommodating everyone’s needs and just steps away from the beach. I would definitely book again and encourage others to do so as well. Super easy check in process and the host was very helpful and responsive.

    We had such a great time! Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home. Location is perfect for our time on the beach. We enjoyed all the wonderful amenities. Beds were comfortable and the A/C was perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you again to the owner Carrie for being so accommodating and nice. Our family very much enjoyed our stay and we hope to come back again next year!
