Beachfront vacation rentals in Mahone Bay

We had a wonderful stay at Kimiko’s Beach Loft! The space felt warm, welcoming and so so cozy with the wood burning fireplace. We had it going all weekend! The outdoor space was just as awesome as the indoor. Kimi and Scott thought of it all - we had everything we needed. We checked out some antique spots down the road, had a dip in the ocean, enjoyed the hot tub and cooked all weekend! It truly was a special weekend!

Beautiful house, incredible views from the house and just a short walk to the beach from the house. Lots of games for adults and kids. Very well equipped in terms of plates cutlery etc we did not see any wildlife but we know there were some outdoor nighttime critters because the Easter eggs we hid outdoors for the kids were almost all gone by morning!

Our stay at Terence Bay was incredible. The location is stunning—right on the beach with beautiful views of a lighthouse. My kids loved being able to climb on the rocks, go hiking along the seashore and even find sea glass right in the backyard! We couldn’t have asked for more and my family didn’t want our time to end! The property was spotless and even better than the pictures. Our two kids especially loved the bunk bed room. Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean was pure bliss. Danielle, our host, was fantastic—always helpful and attentive. You could tell that she genuinely cared about us having a great trip. She offered us tips and help when needed. We’ll definitely be recommending this spot to our friends and family.

I had an amazing, much needed girls weekend here, and very last minute i might add as we booked the morning of. Mark was super responsive and stayed in touch the whole time. Everything was super clean & cozy and the fire place made it very cozy. The only thing i would say wasnt the best was the hottub was very small but would be perfect for 2 people, but 3 was quite a tight squeeze. Overall though everything (but the nova scotia weather) was delightful! Would definitely stay here again

we loved everything about the beach cottage! Everything is as described, with every detail taken care of! Sweet Ethel is a delight!! Easily the best Air BnB we have stayed in! Thank you so much Ethel for making our 10 day stay wonderful! we will be back!!!

This is a special place! We were extremely lucky with the weather and got a super sunny day (pretty rare for mid April). Beautiful scenery, the sun glinting on the water, the surrounding islands, the vegetation starting to wake up for spring! Highlights - exploring the trails on the island, enjoying the hot tub, watching the geese, plus the host was extremely friendly and responsive. Also really nice that there’s the option for a one night stay. My suggestions for improvements or for people booking a stay here - bring a bathrobe and slipper or sandals, I guess this wouldn’t be an issue in the summer but currently as it’s still pretty cold out - emerging from the hot tub into the April air and getting to the house was like doing a cold plunge lol. Also recommend bringing lots of layers, it is pretty windy and chilly at night. Overall great stay though, in the summer it would be awesome to swim off the dock, use the fire pit and lounge out on the rocks. Very cool place!

Our stay at Hook'd Properties unit #14 was one of our most memorable mini vacations yet! Jay and his team made our experience top notch! If there was a rating for "above and beyond", this Host/Property would be deserving of it in ALL aspects! I highly recommend you look for an opening and experience just how amazing it is yourself!

I was looking for a last minute booking when I had to abandon my camping plans due to a storm. Dee was super responsive to my last minute request and was extremely accommodating making sure that I had plenty of fire wood and water in case the power went out. She also dropped off extra towels and blankets for my pup and was warm and welcoming to us both. The property is off the main road and was great for playing frisbee with my dog. The old store was wonderfully refurbished, keeping many of the original features while providing all the modern conveniences. I hope to be back!!!

What an amazing place! Thomas greeted us as we arrived and gave us a tour of the house and amenities. Land Yacht sits directly on the shore with a spectacular view of the ocean. The house was very comfortable for our family reunion of 11; and everyone especially enjoyed the indoor heated pool! The kitchen was well stocked, the house was immaculate, and the nautical themed decor was beautiful. Couldn’t have had a better time. Land Yacht is highly recommended and we will definitely return!

Shobac farm is a unique architectural and farm experience. It was great to have gaffs point and Hirtle’s beach within hiking distance. The sheep were a constant fascination for our pup. Appreciated having access to a lap pool, steam shower and sauna. Thoroughly enjoyed having a wood fire and enjoying and vast country side views from the gatehouse.

Great place to stay for peaceful relaxation.

Curtis’s place is the perfect spot to be close to White Point Beach and Liverpool. They had everything you could possibly need and more set up, the space was clean and accessible. The outdoor space really makes this place special! Hope to stay again soon!

Wow!!! What can I say, unfortunately there is no 10 stars to rate this place and Courtenay. She has done such a fantastic job, we arrived there was water in the fridge and milk, fresh cookies and local caramels from Lure!! I felt like it was my birthday. Beautiful little notes left for us all to welcoming us to the property. I’ve stayed in many Airbnb’s around the world and in Nova Scotia and these guys knocked it out of the park. I need to go and re-review previous properties to make the level of service, support and quality of the accommodation make sense. This is beyond 5 stars and actually deliver so well so thoughtfully that I would not want to stay anywhere else. Amazing location, sunrise and sunset were just beautiful over the ocean. Tucked away but still close for groceries or nipping into Halifax. Courtenay was super responsive but honestly everything is there so no need to ask for anything. Tea, coffee, everything you need other than main groceries was a big help.

I arrived feeling exhausted after a long drive from the USA. But, what a great place to land in Nova Scotia! I slept like a baby in a very comfy bed. The surroundings are beautiful--tucked amidst trees and overlooking the waters of La Have river- I found a little piece of paradise here. The cottage itself is charming. A well stocked kitchen including treats from the La Have bakery. Can't resist that! Joe is such a friendly and kind host. I appreciated that he was always quick to respond to any questions. He can tell you about all the sights and restaurants in the area. My favorite was Cresent Beach about a 15 minute drive--what a place to walk your dog and experience the ocean. I highly recommend staying here!

What a gorgeous place! My only complaint was that we didn’t book a longer stay! Incredible views, wonderful location and a beautiful home. Perfect for a relaxing weekend with friends.

Jim is an awesome host, was very communicative and gave clear instructions. The cottage was amazing, had everything we were looking for in a weekend getaway. I highly recommend, especially if your looking to just relax and unwind in nature.

Beautiful home, relaxed beach vibe with all the necessities and then some. Kenyon and Vanessa have thought of everything you could possibly need or want. Comfortable beds, great linens, spotlessly clean. Watched a seal on the beach in front of the house. Lovely place.

We had a wonderful stay and all of our expectations were meet. The house was very clean and everything you needed was there. We would not hesitate to rebook this place. Wish we had longer to stay.

Thank you Elias, beautiful property and location, we’ll be back!

Loved this location! Friendly host (Emma), great place to relax and get away from it all.
