The house is beautifully furnished - you feel instantly relaxed. This accommodation has two queen beds, not sure how 6 people can fit in comfortably. Three of us felt comfortable. We used the sauna and hot tub which were a bonus. Lovely linen/ lots of bath robes etc

We had an incredible stay at this amazing house and location. The beach is so beautiful, the house was great and close to many activities (whale tours, zip lining, fishing charters, trails). I appreciated that the house was so well stocked with amenities that it made the stay so easy. We loved our time at this house and the owners were very quick to respond to any questions we had. Highly recommended!!

Thank you so much, So happy to hear that you enjoyed your time !
We had a great stay! It was the perfect location for exploring not only the Cabot Trail, but the Meat Cove area as well. I just wish we could have stayed longer! The host provided clear & concise instructions for everything during our stay and we ran into zero issues. Comfortable beds & an extremely relaxing property. The perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day of driving and/or hiking!

So glad to hear you enjoyed your time :) We loved hosting you !
Quiet and beautiful, this property was exactly what we were looking for when booking in Cape Breton. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed for our stay.
What a beautiful spot! One night was made more blissful with wild winds and rain! We truly enjoyed our stay. The hot tub and sauna were wonderful. My favourite was the easy access to the beautiful sandy beach where we enjoyed a lovely, long walk.

Had a wonderful stay at the ocean in a lovely home right on the beach. Beautiful views and the house had everything we wanted and needed.
I highly recommend this vacation rental and we would most definitely stay here again!
Great location and place to stay, check-in really easy sent yale lock code for front door. Very clean and setup will.
Hot tub and sauna are a added benefit, great way to stay each day.
Location really good right on the beach front .
A magnificent property on the ocean with all amenities you would desire including a hot tub. Sauna, porch bubble and full kitchen with all you need. Perhaps the nicest place We have stayed in our travels over past 15 years. Hiking nearby up Meat cove mountain trail with awesome views of north side of island. We really really enjoyed this get away!

Wow ! thank you you made our day:)glad you enjoyed your stay !
We stayed 2 nights for a girls getaway and we enjoyed every thing from the beautiful cottage to the beach and the hot tub. We didn’t use the sauna. The beach is fabulous. The only small suggestion we had was maybe the outdoor shower could be closed in so you could take your bathing suit off to get the sand out, that way you wouldn’t get sand in the hot tub. We would definitely recommend this place, it is lovely.

Thank you so much . So glad you enjoyed your stay.
The name says it all: “Blissful Beachfront Bungalow”
Peaceful setting with spectacular views of the moonrise and sunrise seemingly coming out of the ocean. View from the sauna and hot tub were awesome. And the clear dome is a great space to relax if the wind comes up. Access to the beautiful fine sand beach is only a short walk to through the park next door. At night we fell asleep listening to the sound of the waves on the beach. The perfect spot for a relaxing getaway.
Although the weather was unseasonably hot and it was not possible to keep the bedrooms cool enough for quality sleep, the house was excellent, comfortable, and well equipped, and the setting near the water was great.

Hello Walter,
The air conditioning performance can be low in 38 degrees weather . It was not normal to have weather like that in Nova Scotia. I am glad you enjoyed the stay nonetheless.
Finding this beautiful spot was an incredible treat for my 2 best friends and I celebrating my 50th birthday. It's hard to imagine but the view is even more breathtaking in real life than the gorgeous pictures! The house is spacious, decorated to perfection, full of fun amenities and really close to a grocery market. The dome was one of our favorite hang outs especially watching a few storms roll through but the relaxing hot tub was also a winner. And I have to mention we were literal steps away from walking up and down the beach which we did for the better part of a day - unbelievably gorgeous views. If we are lucky enough to come back to Nova Scotia we would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat.

Hi Shannon, thank you so much for this absolutely amazing review. Thank you so much . We are so glad you enjoyed your time . We hope you can come back and stay with us in the future.
Absolutely beautiful location - the beach was quiet and we had lots of fun playing in the ocean and small stream that flowed into the ocean. The rental was well maintained, clean, and the amenities were abundant. It is clear the property manager has thought of many kitchen utensils and other accessories to make the visit very comfortable. The listing wasn't fully accurate though in that it did not mention the tap water wasn't drinkable and there were security cameras on the exterior of the property (these weren't noted on the listing when we booked). Overall, we had a great visit and would certainly stay at the property again and recommend staying here to others.

hi Rory ,
Thank you for your feedback an for sharing your experience with us. Google maps are not accurate for this location and therefore we drop a pin. The exterior cameras were recently added for security reasons. These are only on the exterior of the property ;)
All in all , I am so glad you enjoyed your stay.
