Chalet in St Margaret's Bay
Chris’s place exceeded expectations! It is in a great location aside from being a little dicey pulling out onto road, being on a bend. Chris was very attentive and the home was beautiful! Woke up to deer in the back yard. Fantastic experience and I will be back for my next visit to Halifax. Thank you Chris!

Cozy house with ocean views
Literally the best ever Airbnb we've ever stayed at... Brian and Heidi were great hosts, communication was very efficient and extremely helpful, they ensured everything we could possibly need was in place at the house. The house itself was located in a peaceful, beautiful, secluded spot with great outdoor spaces, and indoors is carefully set out with an amazingly stocked kitchen with appliance and utensil thinkable, a comfortable living area with smart TV, lightening quick WiFi, efficient AC/heating and plenty of spaces to sit Both bedrooms feature extremely comfortable beds, masses of storage space, and plenty of books to help pass the time. My only issue is that we can't give this place 6 stars! Thank you again Brian and Heidi for providing such an amazing place to stay for 2 Brits who had the greatest 2 weeks in your home 😄😄

Seahorse Cottage
Cozy spot on the ocean with a great view. The cottage was clean and very comfortable. We had a great stay!

Cozy Oceanfront Escape with Hot Tub
It’s a stunning location, brand new house, spotless interior and extremely clean and neat. I’ve never experienced such a well-maintained and thought-through Airbnb. There is though a second house on the premise, separated with a fence. I barely saw the neighbors, but it’s a little less private than I assumed. It’s makes this house not a bit less attractive, it’s just something you might want to know in advance. I regret not staying longer.

Cleveland Point Beach House
It was a great getaway place for a ladies weekend. The beds were very comfortable & the kitchen was large & spacious. It was also close to Chester, Mahone Bay, etc for some shopping & close to beaches.

Rose Cottage - Walking Distance to 2 Beaches
Super cute cottage with bright and cherry decor. Great location. Close to beaches , Halifax and all the tourist sights! Beautiful views. Perfect. We’re coming back next summer!

Lakefront Cottage on a Peninsula
Great location on a very clean and peaceful lake. Swimming , kayaks and paddleboards are available right off the private dock. My son and I enjoyed paddling around the lake with islands, walking trails and a natural area with diving board to explore. The house is on a peninsula so while it’s very private , you also get pretty views on 3 sides. The house is stocked with everything you need for meals, movie watching , games (indoor & outdoor) as wells as a fire pit area. Very rustic feel but everything clean and air conditioned so we were comfortable when we did spend time in the house. Lastly , we were able to get to the Halifax waterfront for a very enjoyable meal in only 35 mins. Closer options in Sackville & Dartmouth as well. We also appreciated having a large Sobey’s grocery store only 10 min drive away.

Historic oceanfront home in Prospect Village
We had a wonderful visit, Prospect Bay is an idyllic place to spend some time. The house is even more beautiful than its pictures, quite spacious and contains everything needed for a short or longer stay. It is set along the marsh bay, and its design makes the most of the stunning location. We were enthralled by the many different variations of the ‘backyard view, between the tides and fog/versus sun. This is great base for short local trips, nearby Halifax, and an hour from the Bay of Fundy. Meagan and Scott provided some great suggestions, including the coast hike right from the house that is truly unique (challenging to follow the trail exactly, but it is a coastal trail) .Everything about the house and visit, was ideal.

Fantastic stay! We loved it there. The host was so helpful and the place met our needs perfectly with all the things one needs for an ocean cottage vacation. We loved the notes, welcome basket & the little additions throughout the property. Thank you so much!!

First time visiting Nova Scotia and we couldn’t have chosen a better home and location. Beautiful home, 10/10 view and location, and very communicative and helpful hosts. Highly recommended for anyone looking to visit the area!
Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Wilson's Coastal Club - C4
We spent a few days at this house, and it was exactly what we needed. A quiet, cozy place where you can truly relax and recharge. The house was very clean, warm, and thoughtfully arranged — comfortable beds, pleasant decor, and everything you might need, from kitchenware to soft blankets. What stood out the most was the atmosphere — you can feel that the hosts put care and love into the space. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the terrace, peaceful evenings by the window, and the complete silence around. It’s a perfect getaway from the busy world. We will definitely come back. Thank you for your warm hospitality!

The Beach Loft: 5-bedroom
We had a wonderful stay at Kimiko’s Beach Loft! The space felt warm, welcoming and so so cozy with the wood burning fireplace. We had it going all weekend! The outdoor space was just as awesome as the indoor. Kimi and Scott thought of it all - we had everything we needed. We checked out some antique spots down the road, had a dip in the ocean, enjoyed the hot tub and cooked all weekend! It truly was a special weekend!

1 -bedroom Boat House with Hot Tub
The cottage is adorable and I loved the comfy beds and just the coziness of the cottage. The view is great and the sea breeze was so relaxing.

Wilson's Coastal Club - C5
What an incredible experience! The cottage and views ticked all the boxes, but the hot tub took it to the next level! We will be back.

Wilson's Coastal Club - C8
Kyle’s place is beautiful and we enjoyed the sauna. Really Fun girls night away. I will definitely recommend this place and hope to book again.

Beautiful spot and has everything you need!

Lakefront Retreat
Such a beautiful home. Will definitely be back during the summer months. Host was very responsive and hospitable. Until next time :)

The Vík - Oceanfront, Hot Tub, 20 mins to Halifax
Myself and some friends were looking for a little work from home getaway for a few days where we could unwind at the end of each work day. Thanh's air bnb was a perfect option! It was modern, yet cozy, great location, lots of space in the common rooms for the five of us to work, as well as super comfy mattresses for a very restful sleep! We also loved the hot tub, very relaxing! We cooked some meals together and the kitchen was well set up with all the utensils needed. We are definitely looking to come back again in the summer to enjoy the sundeck and fire pit area!
