Serene modern Lakehouse on Golf Course

4.96 out of 5 average rating, 47 reviews2 weeks ago

Absolutely loved our 12 nights stay at this stunning Airbnb in Halifax! We came as a group of 10 for my brother’s wedding and the house was beyond perfect. The place is massive, clean, elegant, and super private—ideal for a big family gathering. The ground floor living area became our favorite hangout spot, giving us unforgettable family moments. With 5 spacious bedrooms and a driveway that easily fit over 10 cars, we never felt crowded even when we hosted a dinner with friends. The host was outstanding—very responsive and helpful. We had a minor issue with a shower, and they quickly sent over a video to guide us through, which was incredibly thoughtful. Also, when we reported a small accidental damage, the host graciously waived it. That kind of support is rare. Advice for future guests: If you're planning a trip with family or friends, this is hands-down the best place to stay in Halifax. Gorgeous views, amazing walking paths, and everything you need—restaurants, groceries nearby

Beautiful basement suite with full kitchen, bathroom with toiletries, washer and dryer and a lounge room with streaming services and cable. Lovely setup with separate entrance for privacy, easy to find and easy instructions to get in. Snacks, juice and bottled water also provided. Would recommend. Only thing that would’ve been nice to have on hand would be a fan for the bedroom and a hair dryer, otherwise everything was great.

The Ocean Pearl Cottage

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 32 reviews1 month ago

Brooke’s place in East Pennant is adorable, quaint and very cozy! We enjoyed a lovely sibling weekend connecting and reminiscing. The scenery right on the water was perfect. It was a bit too chilly and windy for the outdoor swim spa but would love to return and use it in the warmer season. We had the pleasure of viewing a pair of eagles feeding on the shoreline. Nearby Crystal Crescent beach has lovely hiking trails. The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed. Two bathrooms was an added bonus! Highly recommend a stay at Brooke’s place. You will not be disappointed!

Our stay was excellent, and perfect for our needs! The main floor was spacious, and having three bedrooms upstairs was excellent. Nalinie was prompt with replying to questions and the house had everything we needed. The proximity to grocery stores and other shops was great. Would definitely stay here again!
