About the host
Hosted by Bob
We came across the Atlantic and immigrated in 2012 to enjoy sailing on our 70-square-meter sailing catamaran with our guests on a modern 12-meter (38`) catamaran. We love to explore the numerous dreamy bays, swim and get our dinner ourselves, fishing mackerels and collecting mussels.
After living aboard for a few years we make a rest and renovated our private Sailor`s Rest House with lots of love.

Why they chose this property
„Sailor’s Rest is a one-of-a-kind piece of paradise on the open ocean in Nova Scotia fulfills your dream. The house is mere feet from the ocean, with uninterrupted views of the ocean, the cove and marine wildlife. It is a well-furnished and comfortable house with an excellent king-sized bed (the only house with one on the ocean in Nova Scotia/Cape Breton that you could find!). It is great to have a fully functional and stocked kitchen to cook in, along with a brand-new washer and dryer for laundry mid-trip. Spent hours on the front porch watching the ocean, reading and relaxing under the handy outdoor umbrella. When the weather didn’t permit this, you are able to cosy up on the huge couch to watch the storms through the big front window, which is just as lovely.
