Beachfront vacation rentals in South Shore

What a fantastic find! This cottage is well-equipped, comfortable, gorgeous surroundings, and we felt right at home. It was perfect for us and we can't wait to go back!

Another successful stay at Keith's place. we were visiting family for Thanksgiving and Keith was very accommodating and provided heaters for the chilly weekend weather. Always great to stay at this spot!

Great spot to stay, it has everything you need, great view! Lots to do and eat in area!

We had a wonderful experience staying at this Airbnb. There was a small issue with our original reservation, (not our hosts fault) and Dixie went above and beyond to make things right. She graciously upgraded us to a beautiful home, and honestly, we felt that we got the better end of the deal. The place we stayed in was absolutely lovely — clean, spacious, and very comfortable. Dixie was incredibly accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed for a great day. Her kindness and quick communication really stood out. Highly recommend staying here if you are in the area. Thank you, Dixie for your hospitality.

Very few places can be as lovely as this place is. Surroundings, weather, accommodation, amazingly cute animals and the most wonderful host. What a treat!! We loved the local grocery shopping and the bar as well.

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. :)

It was a fab place to stay , remote but super cosy ! It was spotless and everything was comfortable .

Great place. One of my favorites that I have stayed at. Private and peaceful (make sure that is what you are looking for). We went for a staycation style and just enjoyed the views of the water and cooking at the place. We went out to dinner a couple of times, once was an hour round trip, and the other was a two-hour round trip -- we knew this going in, so no complaints. We would be open to going again in the future perhaps with another couple as the place is set up perfectly with nearly identical master suites with their own bathrooms and an additional third bathroom on the floor with the living room/dining/kitchen area—just a great innovative design and set-up with awesome windows and views. The hosts were also attentive to our needs and even left a nice surprise to welcome us after our long drive. I would highly recommend it.

Had a wonderful time here. The pool was fantastic, spent many hours floating in it. The covered deck a great place to spend time reading and watching birds, and the newly-renovated bathroom made me jealous! The property is large, my dog had a good time exploring. The sound of geese and ducks spendig the night on the beach lulled us to sleep. The house is a very short drive from Shediac main street, lots of restaurants and grocery shops and places to walk. The only downside I found to the place is at low tide, if the wind is in the right direction, there can be a sulphur smell outside. The smell doesn't last long and doesn't make it inside the house. Lauren was very helpful and quick in communications. Overall I'd highly recommend this place.

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.

We had a great time at the lake view cottage! 10/10 would stay again

Absolutely stunning place. Extremely responsive and kind host. Lots of dishes, cookware, appliances to use. Extremely comfortable beds. Three pristine bathrooms. Clean fridge. Stellar and stunning ocean views! Perfect all around

Lovely host for a last minute getaway. Watching the stars and sunrise in the dome was remarkable. Already planning our next trip there with friends!

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.

Stunning view and Spa Like experience! Étienne was a great host and his place had EVERYTHING we needed. It was so inviting and relaxing. We had a great girls weekend get away and enjoyed the hot tub, screened in gazeebo, wonderful fire pit and swing under the tree. We also saw that he is constantly renovating and adding to the property to keep improving something that is already great! We will certainly be back!

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!

Really the perfect house for vacation. Great welcome and lots of little touches. The house is in a dream location, lovingly decorated and perfectly equipped. There's really nothing missing here. Super nice host with great tips and very good accessibility. If we come back to Nova Scotia, we will definitely book the Secret Beach House again. Dear Courtenay, Thank you so much for everything. It was a pleasure meeting you.

Amazing and peaceful getaway, With great food in the surrounding areas, can’t wait to stay again!

Holly was fantastic. Due to unavoidable storm circumstances Holly had to reroute us to a different airbnb, and she did swiftly and comfortably.

Jordan was very helpful when I asked questions. The place was unique, very clean, and had great views of Peggy's Cove. Jordan also provided good suggestions for local places you could drive to for eat or activities. Peggy's Cove is a cute and quiet spot.

We had a wonderful stay. Immaculate, view was breathtaking very comfortable beds & furniture!! We had everything we needed for a long weekend!! The ONLY thing to note was the last 3-5 minutes of the drive to the cottage was a bit rough in spring. But would certainly not deter me from visiting again. Sonia was very responsive and friendly. Wifi connection was very good!

Beautiful modern home overlooking the ocean. Convenient and easy drive into Liverpool for groceries, supplies, beer, wine. An easy drive from the airport in Halifax. Bathrobes in all the closets was a nice touch!

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!

Casondra’s place was clean and cozy, perfect retreat on the water. The hot tub was perfect to relax in and the beds were pristine and comfortable. Perfect get away not too far from the city!
