Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Downtown Halifax

We stayed at Wilfred's place while we were in town for our son's wedding. There were 7 of us that stayed there and it was plenty of room. The kitchen is very nice and very well stocked. The location is great! You can walk to downtown Dartmouth where there are shops and restaurants or you can jump on the ferry and go over to downtown Halifax. There is also a wonderful park right next door with a playground, splash pad, basketball, tennis/pickleball and walking paths. Wilfred did a great job with communication and check in was very easy. We will definitely look this home up again if we need a place to stay when we come to visit.

Had a great weekend with friends at Doris’s place. Would recommend and would stay again!

We recently stayed at Anni’s place and were extremely pleased with the entire experience. The entire place was very clean and comfortable. Easy check in and check out process, and great location. Anni was responsive and friendly. Would highly recommend staying here!

A perfect spot to stay for a couple of nights in Halifax. It felt like with a 10-15 minute drive you could get almost anywhere in Halifax from here, so a perfect location. We had our dog with us and the fenced back yard was perfect. There was a cute park just a 10 minute walk away that our dog loved. Very grateful for the ease of this spot!

Fantastic modern house, beautifully decorated. Everything that you would need including toiletries. Would highly recommend and very friendly hosts.

A gorgeous property! Comfortable beds, nice size kitchen; many uniqique artful touches throughout. Fabulous hiking nearby along the seaside cliffs. Hot tub and sauna very clean and appreciated after a long day hiking. Randy was a very responsive and friendly host and we would absolutely recommend!

A beautiful home right on the Dalhousie campus and within walkable distance of all Halifax has to offer. The house was perfect for our young family.

Jennifer is a SUPERB host. She was Sooo nice, always recommending things we could do to keep our family occupied, she’s a very pleasant person. We felt right at home in her spot, very clean clutter free and NOT to mention her going out the way putting up holiday decorations and a Christmas Tree for my 5 year old to enjoy her annual Canadian Christmas. It was like we had a fairy godmother always watching out for us. We appreciate that soo much.

Jamie’s place was wonderful. Lovely to be in, close to great restaurants and other fun things, very comfortable and clean. We loved our time there!

Jim’s place was close to family we were visiting in Nova Scotia. It was the perfect home away from home - quiet and cozy. Jim was a great communicator- letting us know exactly what to expect. We had a large travel van with kayaks on top. Jim’s place accommodated this perfectly. We would for sure make this property home base again next time we are in the area!

Cindy’s place was absolutely perfect for my stay in downtown Halifax! The location is unbeatable—close to great restaurants, the waterfront, and everything the city has to offer. The apartment was spotless, stylish, and very comfortable. Cindy was a fantastic host—quick to respond, friendly, and made sure i had everything needed. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Halifax!

Shelley and Julian are fantastic hosts. They really helped make our stay enjoyable. They are very responsive and friendly. The place was in a great spot and we were able to walk to all our destinations.

We stayed for 6 months and it was absolutely wonderful! There were lots of beaches and trails nearby to take our dog. The views were amazing! We even saw a seal once! The apartment was beautiful as well, especially the kitchen (as someone who loves to cook and bake it was perfect!) It's the perfect distance from Halifax if you don't like the bustle of a city but still want to do some sightseeing if you don't mind driving a bit! Overall we loved every part of our stay :)

We had nothing short of an amazing stay at Tee’s place. We had the easiest check in, everything was so clean and looked exactly like the pictures, we enjoyed the hot tub every chance we got, and we loved that he provided us with a speaker!! Tee was so accommodating and easy to communicate with, which we really appreciated. It was the perfect location, away from the hustle and bustle, and a short 5 minute walk to the bus stop.. This was so convenient for us, since we were able to buy a bus pass and take the bus to the water. It was also a 5 minute walk to a bunch of cute shops, restaurants and cafes which is super helpful if you ever just want to go grab a quick coffee or a pastry, or go for dinner close by. We definitely will be back and would recommend Tee’s place to anyone looking to stay in Halifax. Thanks Tee!

Very clean and quaint spot to stay at. The theatre room was fantastic. Made my weeks stay a great time!

The apartment was clean, spacious, bright, well-designed, and decorated, and it had all the amenities. It was quiet in the apartment, and there was little noise from the street. Great location to walk everywhere we wanted to go. A nice place to be for a conference - away from the hotels and bustle of downtown.

Amazing views, beautiful country

It was an interesting stay for the host and for our group. First, I got a message that the air conditioning had failed the day before we arrived and the repair people were not available until after our stay. So the hosts put fans in all of the rooms! Then the hurricane came and it was not safe to stay. We left the day the hosts were coming to secure the house for the storm. And they initiated a refund for the days we could not stay! You can’t ask for more from hosts! The house is lovely and a great place to stay!

Our stay at Harbormist was one out of a dream Amazing space with such gorgeous. peaceful surroundings Well equipped, warm, inviting and one that was the perfect space to have a small, intimate family/friend celebration for my 50th birthday. Unforgettable and a place we would love to stay in again in the future. :)

The location is absolutely beautiful and more spacious than the photos show. We enjoyed watching the wildlife and rolling fog from the bright open windows throughout the house. The host is very excited to share the experience with guests by providing kayaks and local food/ activity recommendations. The property is well looked after by a neighbor / property manager who has great recommendations as well! The property is remote but still within reasonable driving distance of Halifax and other tourist destinations. We recommend you get groceries on your way in though as there are limited grocery options in immediate area. Farmers markets are easily found and have best of NS. Highly recommend for a beautiful and relaxing vacation!
