Absolutely lovely place, secluded in a quaint peninsula away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Halifax, but still close enough to be convenient. Gorgeous private beach with picture perfect sunset views. House was just big enough for 2-4 people, very clean and tastefully decorated. Very happy with our visit

Lovely Stay!

The cottage on the ocean was beautiful! Really nice views and amazing swim spa that we took advantage of due to the cooler temperatures that weekend. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you might need to cook. Would recommend!

Beautiful Stay outside of Halifax

We had a wonderful stay at the Ocean Pearl Cottage. The kids loved having access to the beach, a hammock to swing in and the Spa Pool. The beds were very comfortable and the cottage was well stocked with all cooking necessities. We saw a family of deer on the beach the day we were checking out.

Incredible location

Beautiful little cottage with an amazing view from anywhere on the property! We really enjoyed sitting on the front porch in the afternoons, and sitting in the hot tub and watching the sunset was a highlight of our stay. This was the best place we stayed in Nova Scotia and the proximity to the beach was fantastic. We are a family of 5 and would definitely stay here again.

The property was beautiful and in a great location for a getaway! Easy to access and get to the city, if you’re looking to go. We didn’t end up going to the beach as we were only there for 2 nights and loved spending time at the cottage. The only thing to keep in mind is it is very steep to get up to the loft, so ensure whoever is staying is comfortable with climbing up and down ladder-like stairs.

Our group of 4 retirees greatly enjoyed our stay at the Ocean Pearl. Host was easy to contact and most attentive to our needs. Cottage was well equipped, comfy beds and we loved the hot tub each night we were there. Great neighbours and view. It was close enough to Halifax for a visit there, Peggy’s Cove and Lunenburg. We ran out of time to enjoy kayaks and other nearby attractions.

Perfect ocean-side getaway!

The property was fantastic, well equipped and super cozy. We really appreciated the scent-free clean linens and space. The view is amazing and there is nothing like enjoying an ocean-side soak in a swim spa. Mishoo's was a great place to grab dinner and beverage to-go(3 minutes away). The place was a great destination spot - away from the city but close enough to be convenient.

Enjoyed the stay.

Visited Halifax and hiked area trails. Wife had wanted to try a swim spa and used it every evening. House was right on the water and very comfortable. Was visited by ducks and geese every morning. Wish we had more time to fully take advantage of the house and surrounding areas.

Peaceful waters

The house was in a wonderful location. There was a fire pit and we built a fire each night. We made somores and watched the crackling. We were able to relax and enjoy the view, which is what we came for.

Great spot with wonderful views. We enjoyed the loft and had no problem at our age (58+) going up and down. Loved having some privacy and having a bathroom upstairs. The cottage is very well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. Overall a great stay.

Atlantic cottage near Halifax

We travel from Oakville, Ontario for three nights while exploring beautiful Nova Scotia. It was excellent option for five of us. Just great set up with two bedrooms upstairs and two downstairs, good size kitchen and living room. Property was very clean with all the things you may need during your stay. Large jacuzzi and fire pit was a highlight of our stay. If we ask me what could be improved the only thing I would say perhaps larger bathroom. Overall it was 5 star stay, highly recommended.

Lovely property next to the Ocean

Property was very clean and well maintained. Newer appliances. Swim spa was popular with our group and we enjoyed a bonfire in the evening. Loft bedroom(s) would be challenging for people with mobility issues. The beach was small but watching the changes with the tides was relaxing. Kayaks were available to borrow for a sheltered paddle.

Everything you could need

This property listing looked like a dream online and I was over the moon to see it lived up to every expectation. From the location and amenities, to little things like measuring cups, a toaster, a Keurig, hooks for jackets and towels, throw-blankets to stay warm by the fireplace. Plenty of spots to charge devices or connect to streaming services, but also just disconnect and enjoy the views. So many thoughtful touches that helped us completely relax. Very clean and comfortable, quiet and serene.
