Waterfront vacation rentals in Nova Scotia

Our stay at this Airbnb was absolutely wonderful! The views were stunning, and we especially loved relaxing by the fire pit. Matthew and Susan were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond, offering to drive us to Peggy’s Cove when they noticed we hadn’t rented a car. Their kindness made our trip even more special. A superb experience from start to finish, we will definitely be visiting again!

We stayed at this AirBnB for a swim meet and it was perfect, we loved our stay. The place was big, bright, clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and the beds were super comfortable. We loved the view of the harbour and were walking distance to the pool, shops and great restaurants. Jonathan and Alyson were super responsive and we would definitely stay here again!

This is the second time I’ve stayed at Frank’s place. It is clean, well equipped, and has an excellent location.

Was a lovely place to stay!! They had everything we needed for our one night there. Super cozy and they were quick to respond if we needed anything. Definitely recommend this place if you are in the area!!

5 stars! Wonderful stay again! We stayed in the Elinor Suite this time, very spacious with both waterfront and street views. Impeccably clean, well-equipped, and super comfortable. Easy walking distance to everything. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great spot for rest while traveling on Cabot Trail. Perfect location and idealic setting right in the water. In negative that comes to mind is that we checked in after dark and the entrance was dark bc the overhead door light was burned out. Otherwise, exactly as described.

Such a cozy stay! The skylight window looked out onto the ocean which was beautiful.

Nice and cosy in a heritage house in a heritage street!

We had the pleasure of staying at Meghan and Marc's Airbnb once again, and it was another fantastic experience. Just like our previous stay, they were excellent at communicating and made sure everything was clear and easy from start to finish. Their place was spotless, exactly as shown in the photos, and incredibly comfortable. After long days of work, it was the perfect retreat to relax and unwind. We truly appreciate the attention to detail and hospitality, and without a doubt, we’ll be back again for another stay! Highly recommend!

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.

The house was amazing. Very remote and quiet. But only 30 minutes to busier locations with shopping, restaurants, etc. Within 10 minutes, RoseBay Bistro & Market and Dear Emma Pizza (incredible!) provide all you need otherwise. The beach is incredible. Sitting in the chairs at the edge of the beach, over the dunes, is the perfect spot for morning coffee or a happy hour cocktail! The house design is like a piece of art - the many levels and nooks make it a very unique experience. It is well furnished with all sorts of things you might want to enjoy your stay. Very thoughtful. We look forward to a return visit.

Absolutely gorgeous place to stay!! And we would return!!

We were in the area visiting family and friends. The cottage was on a beautiful waterfront. The bedrooms were very comfortable and spacious with games to play, netflix etc. We found everything we needed to cook in the kitchen. The house was clean and a beautiful place to stay. Just a ferry ride away to brier island, we visited pond cove (beach), western light has a breathtaking sunset, nothern light has nice walking trails and we had drinks and a delicious meal at Chetwick's !!

Spent Christmas week, location was beautiful n peaceful yet easy enough for family and friends to find. The two living areas made it great for entertaining family. Laura was very approachable and facilitated any needs we had.

The house is beautiful and sits right on the ocean. Its old but cosy, has charm and lovely energy. All the towels and linens smelt freshly cleaned. The hosts we're easy and friendly to communicate with

Gorgeous property. Better than photos convey. Decor is very tasteful, bathroom large and beautiful shower. Everything was done thoughtfully and professionally. Hosts were very responsive and clear. We got some snow during our stay and they were on top of having everything shoveled. Stayed for Christmas while visiting family and couldn’t get over how cozy the place was. I felt like I was staying in the Nova Scotian version of Kate Winslet’s cottage from “the holiday”. Would be gorgeous in the summer too.

Cozy, very clean and absolutely stunning views of the ocean. We felt right at home. We wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you!

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.

Great location for walking the waterfront, downtown Charlottetown, and restaurants. Tons of linens/towels provided. Host was very accommodating for early check-in and responsive throughout our stay for questions.

Awesome experience to stay at the rotating house! Condo was very clean and felt like right at home! Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends.

Everything was just as it should be. Great views. Emily was prompt and helpful in providing a couple of extra things we requested. Very nice place for a winter get away!

Fred was very responsive and helpful. The place was exactly as described, with a nice balcony with a view of the water. It was very comfortable and well equipped. We really appreciated that it was stocked with coffee and tea, and that there was laundry detergent available. The whole apartment was in pristine shape, and Ingonish Beach is a great place to base yourself when visiting Cape Breton Highlands National Park.

Catherine’s place is in a spectacular setting with stunning views out to sea. We received a wonderfully warm welcome from Catherine. Do not miss sitting in the sunroom looking out to sea and chilling. The apartment is spotless clean. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom a lovely size. If you are looking to get away from it all, this is a great place to do it. We wish we could have spent more time there We ate at the Red Shoe pub about a 15 minute drive away. Food was decent and live music on the Friday was very enjoyable. You do need a car to stay here but if you’re travelling around Cape Breton, you will already know that Catherine & Francis took the time to give us some great recommendations and places to stop around the Cabot Trail. Catherine also baked us some extremely good cake that was fantastic with our morning coffee. I’d highly recommended staying here

This will be our second time staying here and it’s a fantastic spot, clean and very comfortable.
