The Coastal Bay View

Welcome to the Coastal Bay View, a brand new 2-bed /2 bath vacation home located on a scenic 50-acre, "Stay & Play" oceanside destination with a stunning, sandy beach. The villa's open-concept design makes it ideal for a family or two couples. Come be one of our first guests!

Please note that children must be 8 or older to stay and that maximum occupancy is 4 persons. No exceptions.

A great base for exploring Cape Breton - just 30 min from Cabot Cliffs golf course, a scenic 1-hour drive from the Cabot Trail and 5-10 min from the restaurants, live music, beaches and shops in Port Hood and Mabou.
If enjoying Cape Breton’s natural beauty in comfort and style is important, then you have come to the right place.

This luxurious, 2-bedroom vacation home is packed full of modern amenities including a well-equipped open-concept kitchen (with an island, bar stools and premium stainless-steel appliances), air conditioning, satellite TV, a laundry center and ocean views.

The master bedroom has a King-sized bed, private bathroom, and walk-in closet, while the other bedroom has a Queen-sized bed and access to the main bathroom. All beds have comfortable pillow-top mattresses and linens, and all bedrooms have blinds and screens to help you get a good night's sleep.

Outside, you will enjoy captivating ocean views and stunning sunsets while enjoying a glass of wine or a fine meal from the comfort of your oversized sundeck. The deck has an outdoor dining table, chairs and a propane BBQ.

During their stay, guests can visit stunning Colindale Beach, located an easy 8-10 minute stroll along our scenic nature trail, which winds through a vibrant field of wildflowers, past a shimmering freshwater pond and over emerald green sand dunes. This gem of a beach has warm swimming waters in summer and ideal conditions for cold plunging in the spring and late fall. Unwind in one of our beach chairs, soothed by the sound of crashing waves and the fresh sea breeze. A romantic setting for many wedding proposals, the beach is perfect for leisurely walks, sea glass hunting, meditation, refreshing swims, or photography—especially in the early evening when the western sun illuminates the deep blue sea, waves, and dunes magically. The sunsets here are world-class.

Location-wise, we are a convenient 5-10 minute drive from the shops, restaurants, and five sandy swimming beaches in Port Hood. Port Hood is well-known for its warm waters, music festivals, great seafood, fishing charters, and warm hospitality. Meanwhile, we are about 10 minutes from picturesque Mabou, which has restaurants with local fiddle music, groceries and miles of sensational hiking trails (up to and along Cape Mabou, which features breathtaking views of Cape Breton's rugged coastline, cliffs and beaches below).

Cindy U., West Chester, PA USA

My husband, our adult daughter, and I stayed at this very comfortable, well-situated property for three nights and absolutely enjoyed our stay. The interior is lovely—everything was new, clean, and in perfect working order—exactly as described in the VRBO listing.Our only small surprise upon arrival was realizing that the “50-acre, Stay & Play oceanside destination” is a community of modular “box homes.” But once we stepped inside our concerns vanished. While the community is technically “oceanside,” this particular property, though it offers an ocean view, is situated a distance from the beach (a 10-15 minute walk, as described in the listing). That said, the beach itself is beautiful, and the community has its own private section.We loved having breakfast outside on the gorgeous deck, and one evening we were treated to the most spectacular sunset I’ve ever seen!While Port Hood doesn’t offer many restaurants or shops, Mabou is just a 15-minute drive away, and we had a fantastic evening at the iconic Red Shoe Pub. This property also makes a convenient base for exploring parts of the stunning Cabot Trail.As hosts, Iryna and Michael could not have been more helpful. They were readily available for questions and checked in with us to make sure everything was going smoothly. If I’m lucky enough to visit Cape Breton Island again, I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property.
