Family-friendly vacation rentals in Downtown Halifax

Such a beautiful AirBnB. It was perfect for our family of 6 adults and 1 infant. Spacious and wonderful views. The kitchen was perfect for preparing meals. Lots of outdoor sitting areas, and we enjoyed the hot tub, outdoor fireplace and canoeing. A great location for exploring Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, and several beaches. Melissa was a wonderful host 😊. You won’t regret staying at Three Sheep’s to the Wind.

We had the pleasure to stay for the month of August. Great location overlooking a lake, just a short walk to a small quiet beach on the ocean. An old railway track converted to biking/walking path close by. Close to groceries and restaurants. Great location for day trips to Peggy’s cove/Halifax boardwalk/many parks and beaches. The home had everything you need. Just bring your swim trunks and spirit of adventure. We highly recommend a stay at this lovely spot.

Michelle's place was exactly what we expected. It even looked larger in real life vs. photos advertised. we loved the enclosed gazebo the hot tub was located in, the large kitchen table with oodles of seating, open floorplan and the small touches that made it feel aesthetically pleasing and cozy. we will be back sometime in the summer!

This guest home is amazing and a vibe that reflects the awesome personality of the hosts. If you are looking to get away and relax this is your place, the patio and hot tub over looking the ocean and the claw foot tub and fireplace inside were amazing features but many more touching features that make this a perfect getaway anytime of the year. We will be back and recommending to others!

We came for the Hunter Moon and fell in love with the sunsets and walking on the beach. Lots of places to explore in the area.

Everything that you could have possibly needed was available. Close to a small little town that had restaurants, grocery store etc. The views in and around the cottage were spectacular

We are so grateful to Katelyn & Lee for helping us pull off a magical experience for our family (17 total) who spent 6 days at this gorgeous property. The Anchorage House has plenty of space to gather & lots of nooks for small groups or privacy. There are amble bathrooms, which is essential for a big group. The hot tub was delightful-hosts even stopped by to freshen it mid-stay. They recommended a local caterer, the Savary Plate, who provided incredible meals, but the kitchen is well-equipped for cooking for a large group (which we did one night) and even has a commercial dishwasher! The location is perfect-we made day trips to Lunenburg, Halifax, Peggy’s Cove, and Digby for whale watching—not to mention local beaches minutes away. But we were just as enchanted sitting on the porch or down on the dock (evening kayaking). If characters were unlimited, I could go on and on about this wonderful property, but I also must mention the thoughtfulness of our hosts who felt like friends.

Marvellous start of our 5+ weeks Nova Scotia - Newfoundland tour. Lovely apartment with outstanding view located directly at the beach.

This location is amazing. Right on the lake. Lots of things to do: swim, kayak, canoe etc. we brought our two you kids and they had the best time. Sunrise/sets are perfect. Highly recommend to anyone. Our dog also enjoyed the location and the lake! We will be back. Michael was also very responsive and helpful!

I had a relaxing couple of days at Annes place, the house was as described in the advertisement and had everything you would need for a stay. Close by to local restaurants/ shops giving you different options during your stay.

We had a lovely escape weekend at this beautiful property. It was secluded and peaceful in the winter woods. The wood stove made it so cosy. Everything you need in a home away from home. We appreciated the thoughtful details. The host was easy to communicate with as well as proactive, explaining everything we needed to know for a great stay including local trails, restaurants and shops. Highly recommended!

Fantastic home. Fantastic view. Fantastic host. Awesome 2 weeks. The kitchen was fully equipped; the shower had great water pressure; the host left lots of space in the shelves and cupboards so there was tons of room to store our own items; barbecue was good-absolutely everything was provided to support a great stay. The host was exceptionally responsive -and accommodating. 5 stars with numerous exclamation marks!!!

Our family loved this cottage! Lots to do, modern conveniences, a beautiful view of the lake - we couldn’t have asked for more & we wished we had planned to stay longer! Next time!

We had a lovely stay at this perfectly located, charming, and very comfortable house. Candace is a great host and made sure we had everything we needed!

WFP &J.P were amazing. We were delighted with our stay and fell in love with Nova Scotia. The animals were an extra unexpected. Gustave will be very bored of Maple. Small review THAT IS NOT A REVIEW. The fridge isn't very big so don't do too big a grocery every time. We arrived with too many things and didn't get in. But again, it's no big deal. There's a grocery store nearby. Sounds good. Just don't have to plan too far in advance if you have a big family like mine. The pool is extraordinary!!!!! Close to lots of beautiful beaches . We had a great time with the family!!!

What a splendid place to stay. Spectacular sunrises every morning, so relaxing & peaceful. Daun is an exceptional host,lovely lady,very helpful & a pleasure to have a chat with. I would definitely stay again.

Great stay and great hosts! Quick with replies and information. The home is gorgeous and very well stocked with everything needed. Nature trail and stores close by with downtown Halifax and Peggy’s Cove just a short drive. We even had some deer drop by for a visit which was wonderful! Would definitely stay again when in NS 💕

This unit is spacious, clean, and well equipped. It is conveniently located along a bus route and next door to a restaurant that serves coffee, sandwiches, and hot food. The host is friendly and flexible. I would be happy to stay here again!

I cannot emphasize how comfortable and welcoming both Sammi and their AirBandB were. The attention to detail and genuine concern and thoughtfulness for their guests is remarkable. I so appreciated their prompt and gracious communications and commitment to make everything about the stay comfortable and easy: from keeping on top of snow clearing, to accommodating my request to ensure baby gates were installed. Truly outstanding.

Sammi is a great host. The place was just as described. It was an incredibly comfortable stay. Thanks for everything Sammi!
