Beachfront vacation rentals in Mahone Bay

Loved my stay at the Salty Crib! I have deep roots in Nova Scotia so I don’t mind things like a slight whiff of sulphur in the water…at the end of a dry summer, I’m glad to have enough water, period. (Which there was.) Melissa’s place was comfortable, incredibly quiet and in a beautiful location. I stayed for a week and didn’t want to leave! Loved my daily swim a half-hour walk down the road at Feltzen South Beach. This was the perfect rustic retreat with an ocean view. Would definitely stay here again.

Stone's Throw cottage is like a home away from home for me. I have been visiting annually for a number of years and no place could match it. Joe is the super host of super hosts - he has thought of everything and goes above and beyond to make sure his guests have a truly memorable experience. As always, I arrived to the most thoughtful treats - including fresh eggs, bread, butter, coffee, cookies, a candle, and more - and all of it local, too! I left relaxed, refreshed, and already planning for next year. Thanks, Joe!

This was an excellent stay. The cottage was beautiful and well stocked! The location on the lake was perfect, and the neighbouring cottages were very friendly and peaceful. The internet service was great, and there was plenty to do around the cottage. The interior was very cozy and welcoming. We stayed with a group of 7 very comfortably!

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. :)

What a beautiful place to spend a weekend very clean very organized and a deer waiting for us. when we pulled in the driveway. Our stay was lovely. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Thomas.

Our Stay at the Fish Shack was pure magic. Loved every minute of it. From the idyllic, beautiful location, charming, authentic folk art that filled the property, comfortable bed, linens, furnishing, well stocked kitchen, lovely deck and setting, we couldn’t ask for a more enjoyable visit and host. Thank you for sharing this little piece of heaven with us. This stop after our long trip cross Canada road trip was just what we hoped for and exceeded our expectations 😁. Thank you for sharing Val!

My best friend, pups and I had a wonderful time at the lakeside cottage. It was so cute and the surroundings were incredible!

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!!!

On the Rocks is a peaceful, magical place. It is modern but cozy and extremely clean and well equipped. Jerky and Stew are responsive and friendly hosts. This was our second time here with plans to return in the future!

Nice peaceful stay ar red roof. Nice house, really nice kitchen, Great view

Catherine's place was excellent and she is a great host! She was very responsive and helpful before, during and after booking. She happily accomodated our special requests. Her place is very thoughtfully designed and stocked with everything you could need (better than any other air bnb I've been to!). Lots of nice personal and local touches as well. It is located in a great area - quiet, beautiful beach, and awesome coastal hike. You will not be disappointed! Thank you, Catherine!

We of 4 women going on a trip to NFLD and Evens home was our 2nd stop. WOW, what at beautiful place to stay. Both back and front can be seen with water and beautiful trees. This home was very clean and cozy. Peggy’s Cove is 10 minutes away and not far to see the Bluenose, with to see both. Would highly recommend this home.

Beautiful views and located at ocean front and very quite and peaceful place, loved it.

Beautiful location, lovely cottage. Great views. Everything one needs to be self sufficient. Lovely deck and views are amazing. Was able to get my toes in the sand and test the waters. Graeme stopped by and introduced himself and made sure I was comfortable and encouraged us to explore the area. Very kind and friendly!

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

Beautiful location and home. We stayed 3 nights. We were in the Hubbards area for a family wedding. It was so great to have the beach house as a little escape retreat from the the rest of the hustle and bustle of the wedding preparations when needed. We were a group of 6 and two from our group both had mobility issues. The 2 bedrooms on the main floor were perfect for them. Beautiful patio and lots of fresh sea air!

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

This house is extraordinary. The history, the decor, the comfort. The best stocked kitchen we have ever seen (plus an additional half kitchen). This may be minor, but they had lots of extras towels, face cloths and toilet paper. And the views - unbelievable! Alan's support as host was impeccable - as friendly and he was efficient. We will definitely return!

Raquel’s place, “Vista Del Mar,” is absolutely gorgeous!! The open concept of the main level allows for guests to dine and intermingle while enjoying the picturesque view of St. Margaret’s Bay. Raquel was quick to respond to messages and was a pleasure to talk to! A short scenic drive to Peggy’s Cove and Halifax. Would definitely recommend this spot to anyone travelling to Nova Scotia. Thank you Raquel for having our group at your place!

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.

Gorgeous home in a beautiful location! My family and I loved our stay. The house was very clean, spacious, and well furnished. The view of the water from the deck (and throughout the home) is incredible. It was an added bonus that the home is stocked with fun toys for children. My toddler was in heaven! Simon and Megan are great hosts. They were very easy to communicate with, provided clear instructions, and gave great recommendations for things to do/places to visit in the area. I highly recommend this home and would love to come visit again!

We had a great time at the Point House. The house gave us panoramic views of the cove and pond. Hot tub a plus. Emma was very generous, friendly and welcoming.

Above and Beyond Booked this trip for a group of 7 guys in our early 30s, and it couldn’t have worked out better. Everyone had their own bed, and the space was the perfect size for us with all the facilities we needed. The views were stunning. I knew it was on the ocean, but wow - photos really don’t do it justice. While we were there, some of us spotted seals and even saw a whale — a pretty exciting wildlife moment. Not sure how common that is, but it was a highlight for us, being from out of province . Uber does reach the property, which made a night out in Halifax easy, though we also rented a car to get around — both options worked well. Huge thanks to the hosts. We’d love to come back

It was a very peaceful spot. We had 10 and plenty of space. Beautiful lake. Great patio. We had everything we needed.
