Beachfront vacation rentals in Cape Breton Island

We stayed two nights at McLeod cove and it was lovely! Everything was clean, comfortable and on a beautiful spot! I asked questions right before our teip and Shelia was so quivk to respond and very helpful! Would definitely recommend staying here to tour around CB!

This was a great little place to stay for 2 months (Feb-april). Daphne was a great host, and was always responsive. Being a winter rental there are always little things that happen and they were fixed right away. The house is an older house in the country and felt peaceful. Internet was fast and the house was warm. Unfortunately we could not walk to the ocean, when the snow melted there was a puddle that you could not go around. Would stay again.

Really beautiful cottage. Booked it for a solo getaway and it was so relaxing! The view is amazing and the beach was the perfect place to watch the sunrise. The instructions to get to the cottage were really helpful as well. Would definitely go back!

What a wonderful waterfront property! Cant imagine how nice it must be in the summer! Thanks for hosting us!

Lovely home, privately situated next to the sea. The views were spectacular. The home was very neat and clean and very well maintained. It wasn't too far from the town of Baddeck where we got provisions and visited very good restaurants. We loved our stay at this home. Richard did a good job as our host. Thank you!

Andrea was very responsive and really kind. Place was lovely. We enjoyed our 2-night stay and we will definitely come back. Recommended!

We stayed a week in Nadene’s cottage in Ingonish and it was perfect for us. The location is excellent and the proximity to the beach and views are exceptional. The cottage is equipped with everything you need for cooking or grilling and the satellite TV was a bonus. We’ve stayed at a number of places over the years in Ingonish area and none are better than Nadene’s. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very cozy and beautiful beach right down the road with beautiful sun sets

A nice, peaceful spot with a comfortable bed, great living space, and a good-sized kitchen with everything we needed.

Our family's return visit was wonderful. The comfortable surroundings, peaceful ambiance, and delightful welcome basket were thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Terra Nova was the perfect retreat for 3 generations - me, my daughter and granddaughter. We found lots to do from walking the beach to exploring nearby attractions and just enjoying the gorgeous surroundings. Eleanor provided so many special touches. We immediately felt welcome. She was available for anything we needed or wanted to know. The Easter bunny even left some unexpected treats. It was very hard to leave. Such an idyllic Easter weekend.

We found Nicola’s place to be a perfect location from which to start each day whether we wanted to go in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction for our travels on and around the Cabot trail. The house itself was very clean, well-maintained, and on a lovely lakeside parcel. A family of otters enjoyed breakfast at the same time we did one morning. Fishing season was closed for us, but not for them. All three of them dined and heartily!

Fantastic place in big pond. Out of the way with plenty of room to relax. Highly recommend for a quiet summer stay.

Great host. Peaceful place to stay with family. saw a lot of deers in the area. highly recommend

Overall the place was great, it was clean and the views from the living/kitchen area were fantastic. We were lucky enough to catch quite a sunset from the deck overlooking the ocean, it was nice.

What a beautiful place! We loved the cottage and its location was wonderful for our exploration of this part of Cape Breton. It was only about 40 minutes to Baddeck and 1:45 to Fortress Louisbourg. It was well equipped and spacious - perfect for the four of us. The loft was great for my 18 year old nephew who was up later than the rest and the other two bedrooms are at opposite sides of cottage - great for sleeping! Unfortunately, it was grey and rainy for most of our stay so we did not get to enjoy the patio much at all. It must be wonderful in the sunny weather, though! The screened in area was great (we did get an hour without rain one evening). There was lots of room for us inside to hang out during the rainy days and the big windows with the view of the lake made being inside not so bad! The property feels very private. Even though there is a trailer park nearby, we were completely unaware of it when at the cottage. Not much close by but be sure to eat at Charlene’s!

Wonderful place to stay. We met some less than ideal weather for adventuring with our 2 year old and couldn’t have picked a better spot to lay low for a couple nights. The space is beautiful and yet the setting steals the show. The team is working very hard to ensure the experience of staying at Ridge on the Chimney is a once in a lifetime.

This home and location were stellar. The view was lovely. The bed was cozy and the soap and shampoo were nice in that they were not heavily scented. Loved the beach walks

Thank you for your kindness and your welcome. Paradise place.

Cabot shores was an amazing family trip. The beach and the views are incredible. The live music was so much fun. Would recommend to anyone

It was a great little house to rent out and included anything we could have ever needed. The house had lots of character and was very welcoming. The hosts were very accommodating and ensured our stay went well. The kayaks hadn't been taken out yet for the season and within an hour they had been pulled out for us with life jackets and paddles provided. Totally recommend this Air BnB!

We had a beautiful stay at Gaetan’s place. We enjoyed the deck, hot tub, view, and well-stocked kitchen. Gaetan was helpful and communicative.

Jennie and Guy were amazing hosts. They were extremely helpful and accommodating. Their cozy home has ample space on the main level for indoor living if you ever needed a break day. The deck is large and private and probably my favourite part of the house. The kitchen is extremely well stocked which made cooking away from home an enjoyable experience. The home gets a great breeze from the ocean which kept things cool on the inside and left us with no bugs on the outside! Jennie and Guy provided some excellent tips for things to do in the area and we used the home as a jump off point to see many other fun things in Cape Breton. While not immediately on the ocean, you can still see it from the deck and they were happy to share their kayaks and paddle board with us. A very nice perk which you won't find in many places. The little island is picturesque with lots of beautiful scenery to explore. The local beach was sandy and warm and the two pubs we went to were quite nice as well. Overall, I would highly recommend it. The value for money was extremely fair and we had a great experience overall. Thanks for the memories!

Amazing place, everything you need is there, the view is just amazing Matthew is a great host, visited him at the pub, good drinks and good food will be coming back for sure
