Lakefront Luxury Retreat w/ Pool, Arcade & Canoes
This house blew us away and we’ve stayed a lot of spaces. Honestly, it’s one of those rare places that’s actually better than the photos. Every room was so clean, and beautifully designed but still felt incredibly welcoming and comfortable. Our group of eight had tons of space to spread out and unwind. We only stayed three nights but instantly wished we’d booked the whole week. It’s the perfect distance for all the day trips we wanted to take. We explored Halifax, Peggy’s Cove and even Lunenburg and Wolfville (loved this place, it’s so cute!). I mean then there’s the games room, lake, pool and water toys. If you're on the fence—don’t be. I would highly recommend to anyone to book this house and book longer than you think. We’ll absolutely be back, and next time we’re staying for the week!

Tranquil Chateau on Moody Lake
Appreciate the quick responses and getting the place ready with such short notice. Plane diversions from weather caused us to end up unexpectedly in Halifax - nice to keep the whole family together and ended up really enjoying the great area.

The Blue Cottage
PAM &J.P on été extraordinaires. Nous avons été ravis par notre séjour et sommes tombés en amour avec la Nouvelle-Ecosse. Les animaux étaient un extra inattendus. Gustave va beaucoup s’ennuyer de Maple. Petit commentaire QUI N’EST PAS UNE CRITIQUE. Le réfrigérateur n’est pas très grand alors, ne pas faire une trop grosse épicerie à chaque fois. Nous sommes arrivés avec trop de choses et tout ne rentrait pas. Mais encore une fois ce n’est pas grave. Il y une épicerie pas tres loin. Ça se fait très bien. Faut juste pas prévoir trop longtemps d’avance si vous avez une grosse famille comme la mienne. La piscine est extraordinaire!!!!! Près de pleins de belles plages . Nous avons passé un super beau moment en famille!!!

Riverhouse in Pentz
Fantastic hosts. Dream heritage property with total privacy and a heated pool in a park like setting; we booked that property pretty much every year for the last seven years. Rob and Barb are constantly improving the property, there is always something new to discover, whether it's a new appliance, or a brand new landscaped river frontage inviting you to sit and watch river and ocean life whilst sipping a glass of tasty red provided with the welcome basket. We enjoyed eating out at the Lunenburg restaurants, as much as we enjoyed cooking a delicious meal at their place, which is fully equipped, one can easily cook up a gourmet meal. Golden! And we shall return!! Greetings from Port Lorne, NS, Conny and Fred.

Beautiful new 6 bedroom lakehouse close to Halifax
Tranquille pas loin de la ville avec tout ce qu’il fait pour passer une belle fin de semaine ! Merci

Fun Retreat
I booked CJ’s place last minute for member of our company’s upper management team. He went above and beyond for us given the tight timeline, was very attentive, provided clear instructions and was more than willing to help with unforeseen circumstances. My team had nothing but phenomenal things to stay about not only the property, but the property owner as well. We give a glowing recommendation for anyone interested in this property in the future

Land Yacht Oceanfront Luxury + Indoor Pool Escape
Another Great Stay at The Land Yacht! This was our second time staying at The Land Yacht, and it was just as wonderful as we remembered. They have everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable getaway. The indoor pool was amazing, and the views of the ocean are absolutely breathtaking. One of our favorite moments was reading a book in the solarium while listening to the rain—pure bliss. The peaceful atmosphere, thoughtful amenities, and beautiful setting make this a truly special place. We can’t wait to return again!

The Backyard Brook Bungalow STR2526A5027
Nancy's backyard Brooke home was gorgeous when we first walked in you could tell that it was very clean we loved all the plants it was very spacious beddings were very clean and comfortable both washrooms were very clean downstairs was very surprising had a small gym lots of board games one of the largest TVs I've ever seen great for movie Nights the kitchen was fully equipped it was easy access Nancy even got my mom a bottle of wine for her birthday celebration honestly the host was great we had no issues it wasn't as private as we would like as my mother is a very heavy smoker but the backyard was amazing the deck was super large the pool was amazing she had lots of furniture the only thing that would have made the rental even better is if she had a hot tub because the pool was cold this late in the season and it would have been nice to get into a nice warm hot tub after the swim I had no complaints about the rental I only wish Airbnb gave me more space to write a better review

Charming Chester cottage steps from Nordic spa
Charming home that is very clean and well cared for with nice design touches. Well stocked kitchen. Appreciated the chance to do laundry. Cozy spaces that are suitable for small groups. Outdoor space was not as inviting as anticipated.

Luxury Oceanfront Cottage-Rose Bay, Lunenburg #2
We stayed at Mark's Place for two weeks of remote work and vacation and it was great! The location is just secluded enough to feel like you've gotten away but it's also an easy and pretty drive to Lunenburg for shopping and dining. We enjoyed watching the tides change from the living room couch and from the hot tub. Also, Mark's Place is fully stocked. It had every upscale item imaginable in the kitchen and each bathroom had its own set of towels, hairdryer, etc. It was also easy to communicate with Mark and his cleaning team and - for those who care - the WiFi was able to handle multiple laptops, phones and other devices without fail. As an added bonus, during our stay, we saw many different birds in the water and on the lawn, a deer family and a porcupine family.

Steel the Wave
this AirBNB is VERY well managed and the details are accurate. I never had to once wonder about any topic, communication was generally started by the hosts and anticipated any need or questions. This is how they should all be run.

Zen Oceanfront Chalet- Hot Tub & Sauna
Great place, and Priyanka runs a very professional Airbnb business.

The Pearl, Sauna, Hot Tub & Quiet!
The Pearl was a beautiful place to stay! From the furnishings and artwork, to the amenities (like a hot tub and sauna) and private surroundings, it had everything you would hope to find in a vacation getaway. Liz put extra care and thought into this home, and it shows. Fresh bread and eggs for breakfast, scented candles for a cozy ambiance, wood for an indoor fire or a heat pump for added warmth, and soap, shampoo, lotion, etc that is free of many allergens and chemicals) just to name a few. I honestly could have left half of what I packed at home as this place has it all! My only regret is I wish I had more time to spend there. Don't delay in booking this space.

Surf House - a beachside paradise
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.

The Captain's House
Michael and Rachel were excellent hosts, and proactively sent the instructions on their house the morning before our arrival. The house actually feels bigger than the pictures imply and was the perfect location for a young family of 4. The beach is right across the road with accessibility from a few points, including a staircase. The house gets wonderful sun light and breezes, with stunning sunrises and sets. It’s also an easy 15-20 minute drive to Lunenburg. Everything was very clean and organized, and the house has everything needed to cook, relax, and even entertain for rainy days. Would definitely come back and recommend to couples and small families. Thanks again Michael & Rachel.

The Lookout
You will not be disappointed with this gorgeous well appointed home. We had 12 family members with us and we had plenty of space for everyone ! We were very comfortable in every room. The beds are wonderful with lovely bedding. The views from this home are extra special. Particularly the partially covered upper deck. We watched osprey and eagles flying over water from the comfortable outdoor furniture We enjoyed the wood burning fireplace in the evenings. It’s a serene retreat that we were lucky enough to find on Airbnb Don’t hesitate - true value for money Patricia

Private Oceanfront Escape
Thank you so much for hosting us. We had an amazing time and really appreciated your warm hospitality. This is such a beautiful place with a breathtaking view—it was truly unforgettable.

Dome in the Woods
The place was very organized and welcoming. It had everything we could need, it was in a very clean condition, and very well equipped. There was a guide with things to do and places for food. One thing to keep in mind is that there is an open roof so id recommend bringing eye masks. It was fun watching the wild life out the window.

Nova Scotia Orchard by the Sea
We loved everything about our stay at Lynn’s beautiful home. The location is perfect if you are looking for a relaxing and peaceful break. The house is super clean and has everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay. The furniture inside and out is very comfortable. The view of the water is perfect. Lynn is an amazing host who greets you when you arrive and makes you feel at home. She was always quick to answer any questions we had. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us Lynn. We hope to be back someday!

The Lahave Lodge
The house was beautiful and perfectly suited our needs! The beds were comfortable, the heat was perfect and we felt at home. Matthew and Billy were extremely responsive and we were satisfied with everything and their resolution of a small issue we had! We will be going back to stay here again for sure!

Log Home Luxury
We really enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect to visit the surrounding area such as the local Wineries, Lunenburg and Peggy’s Cove. At the end of the day, the log home was the perfect place to relax and enjoy a sunset on the lake. We made great memories this week. Thank you for sharing this beautiful log home with us.

Fire&Stone Oceanfront Retreat
Not 1 complaint. The hosts thought of everything a guest might need for a comfortable stay and had it there. My friends and I had a really great time and enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit and propane fire table. We will have to come back to try the sauna. 10/10

Cow Bay Life - Guest Suite, Osbourne Hd, Cow Bay
Excellent location with a beautiful sunrise view. I highly recommend for easy access to beaches and other restaurants or park amenities.

Atlantic Pearl - Luxurious Ocean Front Experience
We were definitely “wowed” by this beautiful property from the moment we arrived onto our departure. We didn’t want to leave! The kitchen was well appointed with boating for anything to prepare a wonderful meal! This is my favourite Airbnb and I have stayed in ALOT! Whoever goes to Atlantic Pearl will not be disappointed. Arthur thank you so much for a perfect stay!
