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.

Quarry Cove
We had an amazing stay at Quarry Cove! The home had absolutely everything we could possibly need — from a fully stocked kitchen to tons of indoor and outdoor games and activities for the kids. It was perfect for our family girls’ trip. The place was spotless, and the wraparound veranda offered a beautiful view that we never got tired of. The hot tub was clean and such a treat at the end of the day. Adrienne was incredibly friendly and helpful — even went out of their way to help us get the hockey playoff game on TV, which was such a nice touch! We felt completely at home and well taken care of. Highly recommend Quarry Cove for anyone looking for a relaxing, family-friendly getaway!

The Yellow Beach House
What a little piece of paradise! We loved everything about the yellow house by the water and will be back! The accommodations are beautiful and exceeded expectations and it is perfectly situated a few minutes from Digby on one side and less tgan half an hour from Annapolis Royal. If you stay here, go watch the sunset at Point Prim lighthouse! Thank you for sharing this beautiful home Jane.

Private Lakefront Escape|Swim, Sip Wine & Stargaze
Very cozy place! It was right by the water with a beautiful view. Very convenient as well. We were about a 30 minutes drive from Downtown Halifax. Ashley was very responsive and helpful. Beautiful place and amazing host! I'd stay there again. :)

Harbour House - Halls Harbour Waterfront Getaway
My fourth time staying at Halls Harbour so that tells you how much I like it there! Lol Easy check in, very clean, comfortable beds & nice linens, all the comforts of home! And the view can’t be beat! Would highly recommend!

The Alton
Fantastic AirBnB! very clean home and came stocked with kitchen appliances, complementary items for guests, BBQ (with propane), firepit, air conditioner, and all beds as stated. It was a cozy stay I'd highly recommend.

Oceanfront Retreat
Best place we've ever stayed. The attention to detail the owners have put in really shows. The location is a welcome relief from the world but close enough to go explore. Would give more than five stars if possible. We'll be back if we're ever on the island again!

Cabot Trail Ocean Front & Mountain View Lodge
This was a wonderful place, we loved being right by the ocean and the house had EVERYTHING and more to make the stay wonderful and memorable for our family. We especially liked the well stocked kitchen and the fire pit right out back with the ocean sunset views. Thank you!!
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
This home was beautiful! It was perfect for our team away day. The location was perfect, the home was cozy and Danielle was always available to answer our questions.

Atlantic Views - 5 Bedroom Exec Home with Pool
Excellent place to stay in New Waterford before riding the Cabot Trail. Pool is heated and views are great. About 5 mins from town but most restaurants deliver - and the new pizza and bakery place is great. Karri & Corri were very responsive and had the place ready within 24hrs notice.

Strait to your Heart Cottage
Perfect place for my 2 week stay while I worked in town! Had everything I needed and more! Super clear instructions, the host was super awesome and made me feel at home!

The Blue Cottage
JP was very friendly and we enjoyed the animals.

Sunshine By The Sea! 10 minutes from Cavendish.
Wonderful cottage for our 2 families and very responsive hosts that made sure we had everything we needed!

Beach House WoW - This Old Tree
This was a truly fabulous place -- my only regret was not staying longer. We found this listing after planning a trip to Five Islands Provincial Park, as part of a larger road trip around Nova Scotia. Had we known just how wonderful and peaceful the property and area were, we would have stayed longer and used the spot as a bit of a "home base" to do some more exploring around the region. The house is beautiful, and Jennifer and Barclay are really working to create a wonderful small vacation community, with a few other rental units on the property. Jennifer warmly welcomed us on arrival and gave us some local recommendations. The Five Islands Lighthouse Park, which is a 5-minute walk from the unit, is a fabulous place to watch the tide go in and out, and the surrounding residential community feels very warm and welcoming.

Miles Away Cottage
Great place. All details well thought of. Great location right in the middle of PEI. Special praise to wood stove. It's such a pleasure to sit by the fire on a stormy night. Give it a little time to get going, and it runs perfectly.

Nordic Tides Retreat Sauna & Spa
The property is truly amazing! The views were spectacular, the host was very friendly and quick to respond, and everything was very clean. We had a group of 12 and had plenty of space. The hot tub and sauna are wonderful additions and added to our experience. Alicia is a superb host and I highly recommend staying here.

Luxury Ocean house at Bull Point Estate
Beautiful location. Easy check in.. extremely easy check out. Hosts were quick at responding, and answered all questions. The hot tub is small .. would have appreciated a 4 person hot tub. House was spacious and well organized. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. The large fireplace would have been enjoyed,during a rainy evening but wasn’t useable. Great outdoor space. Views were spectacular!! We would definitely stay here again!

Taigh-Solais… Your Seaside Escape
We booked this place for our first trip to PEI and for our 1st anniversary. It was truly magical. We felt at home from the moment we walked in. They put so much thought into the details, it was amazing. We truly loved waking up everyday to the ocean and the fishing bats, only to relax in the evening to the beautiful sunsets and walks on the beach. If you are looking for a private oasis on the ocean, do not think twice. Thanks Jared & Neha for being amazing hosts and creating this captivating space for others to enjoy. We hated to say goodbye, but hoping this is just see you next time. Cheers

The Lookout - Cottage
Loved this sweet cottage with an ocean view. Every detail is thought of to make it a cozy, comfortable and relaxing weekend away. Thank you to the wonderful hosts.

Edgewater on Broad - Hot Tub
This was my first girlfriend trip. We arrived at the house and the seven of us were Wowed! Everything you could need was there. Perfect kitchen for meals and the open concept was great for everyone being together. The beds were very comfortable. The whole house is spotless. The hot tub on the upper deck and the view from there is beautiful. Summerville beach was only a couple minutes away. Next trip will include our husbands. The house next door would be great if anyone would want a family reunion getaway.

Ocean House with hot tub, indoor sauna, and kayaks
Our family of six adults really enjoyed this beautiful, well-appointed house — particularly the location. This new home has incredible views and we spent considerable time enjoying the wildlife that came into the cove. The hot tub, sauna, croquet set, and kayaks were really special added bonuses of which we took advantage. The house had everything we needed in regard to linens, kitchen items, and entertainment. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. The location was very private and peaceful — we didn’t see another person save some friendly waves from passing boats. We drove about 25 minutes for a dinner in Shelburne and visited Digby (2 hours away) and Mahone Bay (~1.5 hours away) while we were there, but also — because of the beautiful setting — ended up spending more time at the house than originally intended. Highly recommend!

Fire&Stone Oceanfront Retreat
This place was pure magic! I stayed for a night with three girlfriends and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect getaway. The ocean view is absolutely breathtaking, and the hot tub and sauna took the whole experience to the next level. Every detail felt thoughtful and relaxing. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the space was spotless, stylish, and so welcoming. We felt instantly at ease and didn’t want to leave. Highly, highly recommend—an absolute gem!

The Blythe
Christine’s place is gorgeous and a must see. If you like designer accommodations, this takes the cake! The location is gorgeous and has a lovely view! Christine was also amazing and extra accommodating with us given som trip interruptions. We very much appreciated it!
