Cozy Lakefront Suite outside Halifax
Fantastic and peaceful stay! The place was exactly what we needed—clean, quiet, and surrounded by nature. A perfect spot to relax and unwind. Highly recommended!

Seaside Nook
Quaint place with updated furnishings and right on the water with cute swings on the deck. Jonathan was very helpful, responsive to questions and provided recommendations on local eateries and things to do. Much appreciated!

Centrally Located Suite w/ View of the Harbour
Nice downtown place with a view! Loved it! Close to restaurants and waterfront.

Sunset Hill Apartment
We loved staying at Clarke and Shelley’s! The space was very clean and had everything you need. The VIEW from this listing is unmatched and very peaceful - huge plus! Communication with our hosts was clear and responsive and it was nice to meet them in person too. 100% would book again when I’m back in town!

Scenic Lakefront Suite with Private Jacuzzi
Great spot, super unique. Perfect for a getaway not far from the beaten path.

Captain's Quarters with harbour view and workspace
This was our second time staying at Frank’s place . Will be back again for sure. Convenient location, facilities were up to date. Would highly recommend!!

Beautiful ocean front couples getaway
We had such a wonderful stay. The property is so beautifully landscaped by Bruce and Leesa. You can see the love and care they put into it. The inside was no exception. It felt warm and inviting. Leesa and Bruce are wonderful people. Very friendly and put us at ease right away. Really really nice couple. Don't think twice about booking this place. You will not be disappointed. We will be coming back and will book Leesa and Bruce's place without a question. Thanks for making us feel so welcomed.

Destination South Bar
This home is above advertised,very spacious and CLEAN.Beds are comfortable,plenty of extra breakfast left out for us.The yards are yours to use,a walk down to the ocean to a bench swing that seats 3 adults easily or a few feet over a wooden deck with chairs on just to watch the happenings go by. Being only 30 min to the ferry this is really a great place to stay.
Waterfront house rentals

Lovely oceanfront home w/4 BR + stunning views
Had a wonderful stay in Mahone Bay. The AB&B was beautiful spacious and had all the amenities you need. It was located in the heart of town and was easy walking to shops eateries and the waterfront. Craig and Laura were wonderful host responding quickly to all our needs.

Oceanfront Luxury Glamping Dome
The photos can’t do it justice. Absolutely stunning, warm and inviting. Cozy and quiet and relaxing while still having comfortable amenities! Would LOVE to return during the winter! Walking down to the private beach area during sunset was magical.

Hayden Lake"Mainhouse" fantastic lake view & peace
An incredible place to get some peace. Enjoyed the lake and the beautiful surroundings. Highly recommend.

‘All Tide Inn’ Oceanfront Home on the Minas Basin
Another great stay. The kitchen has all the amenities you would need. The place is clean and welcoming with comfortable beds, lovely big bathrooms. But the best part of the stay are the evenings out on the deck watching the ever changing views across the Minas basin over to Cape Blomidon where the setting sun provides spectacular sunsets every evening and if you’re lucky you’ll catch sight of the bald eagles that live nearby

Secluded Cape Breton Ocean Front Cottage
The house has absolutely everything you’d need; phone chargers on each side of every bed and multiple in the living room/kitchen, abundance of linen, kids toys/books, all the streaming services, multiple Bluetooth speakers etc. you truly only need to bring your clothes. The house is exceptionally clean as well. If you’re looking to explore farther into Cape Breton Island (highlands national park for example) note that it is a bit of a drive. Otherwise we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this home!

Charming Modern Waterfront Cottage
This was our second time staying and it was just as good as the first! Nancy is so friendly and even offered us a late check out without our asking. The house has everything we need for a relaxing end of the school year getaway. We have an annual end of the school year trip and hopefully this will continue being our go to spot for years to come! The views, the layout, the space, the tranquility, the hot tub, 10/10!

Mount Uniacke Lakefront Cottage
Great spot just outside the city, yet still close to amenities. House was VERY clean, clear instructions given and hot tub was perfect with the view of the lake. Kayaks were so fun and easy to set up off the dock. Definitely recommend.

The Cozy Plover (Waterfront & Lighthouse View)
It is a beautiful spot on earth and Jade was a pleasure to communicate with. We felt right at home, had a barbecue with the view of the ocean and slept like babies - heaven!
Waterfront condo accommodation

Ocean Breeze Relaxing Oceanfront
The condo was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. The views from the living room and balcony were even better than the photos, and we loved falling asleep to the sound of the ocean crashing on the beach. Our only regret is not booking a second night!

Mahone Bay Condo - Coastal Getaway
We loved Jeanne’s condo. It was very comfortable and in a great location. Could walk around the little town of Mahone Bay, or enjoy the view from the balcony.

Modern Condo in Halifax
Wonderful location, and Angela is an excellent host! She was very responsive the entire time and made us feel very welcome and comfortable in her space. Next time we're in Halifax, we'll definitely book with Angela again!

It was a really nice stay, the air bnb had everything we needed. The host was extremely responsive and brought over a pack n play & highchair for us within 10 minutes of us sending them a message.
