Family-friendly vacation rentals in South End, 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!

We Had a family reunion “staycation”!! This Was a perfect spot. Open space for the play pen and baby toys! Beautiful view & yard. We brought our own groceries and stayed in. The kitchen was very workable and had all the kitchen tools we could have needed. The wood stove was such a relaxing mood setter. The outdoor hot tub was lovely! (2 ppl) The deck was perfect for enjoying the outdoors with babies! Host had loads of little fine touches. Washer & dryer worked great! Parking was good, right next to the door and no stairs needed. Felt right at home and very comfortable! This is a perfect location of longer stays!

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.

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.

This is the second time we have stayed at David's place and will not be the last. The addition of the darts and shuffleboard was icing on the cake! The kitchen is well equipped for meal prep and the living area by the fire and TV is very comfortable. David communicated before, during and after the trip was appreciated and he was flexible on our arrival and departure. For a spot near the city but far enough away to unwind, it is an amazing value.

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!!!

My wife, friends and I had a great time in Nova Scotia and Candace's location was perfect for us.

PAM & J.P were extraordinary. We were delighted with our stay and fell in love with Nova Scotia. The animals were an unexpected extra. Gustave is going to miss Maple a lot. Small comment WHICH IS NOT A CRITICISM. The refrigerator is not very big, so don't do too much grocery shopping at once. We arrived with too many things and not everything fit. But again, that's okay. There's a grocery store not far away. It's very easy. Just don't plan too far ahead if you have a big family like mine. The pool is amazing!!!!! Close to lots of beautiful beaches. We had a great time with the family!!!

We booked this place last minute for a wedding band on a long weekend and Catherine and Daniel were so accommodating letting us house them in this home. They felt so comfortable being in this big, private space with everything so nearby. The place was perfect and could not have asked for better hosts. They highly recommend!!

This was a fantastic little place for a staycation. The bed is the comfiest I have ever slept on. Close to so many little shops and some restaurants on the main strip and a quick drive to Lunenberg. The cottage is very private and cozy. The shower is fantastic as well.

Very quiet, clean, renovated and spacious place to enjoy!! Huge windows with 360 view!!! Place was upto the expectations!! 😊😊

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 💕

The condo was absolutely perfect for our needs. The privacy of our own space with all the conveniences of being home. Thank you Paul for a lovely weekend. We will be returning guests!

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!

We had a wonderful stay at Paul’s place. Lock boxes make entry and exit simple. The location is great with easy walking to many restaurants and bars, Pier 21, Maritime Museum and the harbourfront. The apartment was clean and comfortable as was the bed. Parking availability is a huge bonus. It was so convenient we just booked to stay 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!

This was the perfect place to stay for a visit with my son at Dal. The apartment was cozy, clean, and nicely decorated. We felt right at home, which was exactly what I was looking for. It's convenient for getting around as there are bus stops right outside the door. I even took the bus to and from the airport - only $5 each way! It was also a very quick walk to the grocery store, coffee shop, and anything else you need. Great stay overall!
