Seaside Country GuestHouse
Such a comfortable stay for our family gathering! We are repeat visitors and will definitely return again. Franklin is a fantastic host.

The Yellow Beach House
Our stay at Jane's place was fantastic! It was even bigger than the photos made it look. We felt right at home and were able to use the well-equipped kitchen and BBQ to make our meals. It was a great home base for day trips into Bear River and Digby. The beach outside was incredibly private and perfect for beach combing. We'd stay again in a heartbeat!

Gorgeous Oceanfront Estate in Peggy’s Cove
We were celebrating a 50th birthday with a spa day nearby. The 4 bedrooms was a dream! The house had all we needed and then some. The host was amazing from beginning to end. Responsive. Proactive. Friendly. We spent 2 stormy nights and we're cozy the whole time. Thanks for the great weekend.

Secluded Cape Breton Ocean Front Cottage
I really enjoyed my stay here while I was working. It is such a cute and beautiful home, I loved all the natural lighting and how cozy the wood stove made it feel. I will definitely be trying to book here again if I am lucky. She books up so fast! The road driving up to the house is a little rough - but what do you expect on some back roads - I never had any issues or got stuck, just something to be aware of, especially when it is muddy.

Beachside Escape in Queensland
Our family had a fantastic Christmas at Deanna’s. It looks exactly as advertised, and is just really comfortable. Deanna was very helpful and timely in responding to questions, prior to, and during our stay. She was very flexible and accommodating to meet our timing needs. Awesome location and view. The accommodation is great, well taken care of and great for a family stay. Will definitely stay here again if back in the area.

Kingsburg Guest House
What you can imagine from the photos, but don't quite understand til you arrive, is how you will become part of nature's day here. The rise and fall of the sun, the moon and the tide are all on display from this little house by the sea.

Beach Front Oasis - Custom-built Timber Frame Home
Amazing place to enjoy our family Christmas under one roof. Spacious and so cozy all in one! We loved the fireplace and the easy access to the beach. There was a snowstorm when we were there and so we were nestled in all day. It was so beautiful to watch the storm roll in and feel so comfortable!

Baddeck Waterfront Home- Paddle the Bras D’or Lake
We have been coming to Baddeck for many years, and this time we were fortunate to find Kristine’s place. Everything about the place was perfect—the stunning view, the immaculate house, and most of all Kristine’s wonderful family. They felt like my own by the end of our stay, and we will most definitely be coming back. Kristine thought of every little detail to make us feel at home, from the zillion channel TV to the coffee ready to be perked.
Beach house rentals with a pool

Beach and a Heated Pool!
Great location with a short walk to the beach and privacy compared to other places in the area.

White Point Resort - Panoramic Ocean View
What a beautiful home and peaceful location. We had a great family getaway for March break and hope to go back in warmer days. Highly recommend.

Beautiful 3 bedroom home with a view.
Great spot with an awesome view. Strategic location to visiting multiple locations at Cape Breton. Host was very responsive.

Atlantic Views - 5 Bedroom Exec Home with Pool
We had a great time at Karri's place! The place is clean and the surroundings are peaceful. It's a great place for a weekend with family.

Strait to your Heart Cottage
I’ve stayed at Donalda’s many times. It’s my go to place while staying in Port Hawkesbury. The place is always pristine and a home away from home!

The Blue Cottage
PAM & J.P were extraordinary. We were delighted with our stay and fell in love with Nova Scotia. The animals were an unexpected extra. Gustave is going to miss Maple a lot. Small comment WHICH IS NOT A CRITICISM. The refrigerator is not very big, so don't do too much grocery shopping at once. We arrived with too many things and not everything fit. But again, that's okay. There's a grocery store not far away. It's very easy. Just don't plan too far ahead if you have a big family like mine. The pool is amazing!!!!! Close to lots of beautiful beaches. We had a great time with the family!!!

Sunshine By The Sea! 10 minutes from Cavendish.
My family loved our stay at the beach house. We had what we needed for the week, and Laurie was kind enough to add to a birthday celebration. The hosts were responsive and helpful.

North End Nest
Helen’s place was exactly as pictured plus many more lovely additions in terms of available supplies and even food items! Helen emphasized how everything in the apartment was for myself and guest to use, making us feel right at home and very welcomed. Parking is easy and steps from the main entrance of the unit. This is a very spacious place with comfy beds while also being only a short distance from the bustle of downtown Halifax!
Private beach house rentals

Two level private home for two families
Thank you for a wonderful stay! The house was exactly as pictured, and Lynn was a very responsive host. Super clean, lots of space for all family members, and great location from which to explore the island. We’d definitely stay again!

Amazing Ocean view! on a cliff
Wow! Marina’s place was beyond amazing! It exceeded our expectations and was even more beautiful in person! It was the perfect location for us to unplug and truly enjoy our surroundings! Marina’s little touches and sweet items she left for our girls (ages 4 &6) were above and beyond anything we could have imagined! The house allowed us to be able to take day trips and come back to a relaxing and beautiful location! We definitely hope to come back to Nova Scotia and definitely will stay at her home again!

East Coastal - Beach Home
Lovely vacation home with all the amenities you need. The house is situated in a vacation home area with multiple properties around, yet fenced-in for privacy. They have a guest house on the property which shares the fire pit area with the main house. We had the whole place to ourselves during our stay and it was as relaxing as we had hoped for. The home is clean, tastefully decorated and very comfortable.

Dennis Beach Fundy Oasis
The view from the home was absolutely stunning! We had a wonderful few days here. Karen was very helpful, even suggesting things we could do in the area. We went to The Launch Party and it was worth it!

Ocean Front #2 HotTub 2 bdrm Rooftopdeck BBQ 2bath
Highly recommended, if it's available, book it! The pictures don't do justice with the house - it is much more impressive and beautiful. Everything is so well thought of! Me and my spouse celebrated my 40th birthday and we couldn't ask for a more perfect place. Everything was super clean and well organized, the kitchen and the bathrooms were fully equipped with everything we could need (the white bath robes are perfect touch). The multiple windows and the amazing view, the sparkling clean hot tub and amazing deck and the cozy and luxurious living space made us really want to move in. We also want to pint out the incredible interior design; the art on the walls, the vases, the little statues and the kitchen chandelier added such a wonderful touch to our entire stay experience and made everything feel very special. Jay, Nathan, Deep and Genniene were incredibly helpful, responsive and warm welcoming, made us feel right at home. We can't wait to go back, just perfect in every way.

Enjoy our private relaxing Maritime escape!
Beautiful location. Beautiful hosts. Could not have asked for a better place to stay.

New Custom Oceanfront Home
We had a wonderful stay! The location was perfect for a kid free weekend with friends! The property was lovely along with the hot tub! Everything we needed was available - hosts were quick to respond and very hospitable! Highly recommend!

Spacious, peaceful 3 bed home, 5 min walk to Beach
A great stay! Nancy’s place is clean, really big, well-appointed and comfortable. The beach is a quick walk away and the cottage is remarkably private. We enjoyed our time there and would definitely return.
