About this property

Pet friendly place! Close to hiking trails, taphouse, coffee shop, local bakery.


Welcome to The Salty Kiss located in historic Torbay, Newfoundland and Labrador. Your cozy place to stay while visiting the avalon peninsula. The area we are located at is a quiet, friendly neighborhood.

The property is fully fenced with a gated driveway. A perfect place for your children or pets to safely run around and play. With large mature trees for your privacy and open space. The driveway is long and has a turn-around at the end to help when you are parking your vehicle. There is also a private light pole in the backyard for bright lighting during the night.

The furnished apartment is located in the back of the home with your own entrance and smart lock for easy access. The lock code will be given to you prior to checking in. The kitchen is fully equipped for when your ready to cook your meals. We provide complementary wifi, linens, towels, cable tv, and of course a coffee station setup with k-cup machine, and everything you need to get your morning started right.

It's conveniently located close to the Torbay Common community center with a playground, splash pad, skatepark, book exchange box and electric vehicle changing station. The spacious new facility is great for having meetings, birthday parties, sports and events.

Within walking distance to an amazing coffee shop that serves the best food, local bakery, and The Post Taphouse. Down over the hill further is the oldest bar in Newfoundland Mrs. Liddy's and next to it is Mary Brown's. You're just feet away from the east coast trail that gives you close access to beautiful coastal views along with challenging hiking trails.

Couple things to note that Torbay does not have public transit so a rental, personal vehicle, taxi or Uber is a must to travel longer distances. Kindly be advised that the airport terminal is 12 minutes away and downtown St. John's is around 17 minutes or so. Welcome to our cozy split-level apartment, perfect for guests looking for a comfortable and well-equipped stay.

The apartment features two private bedrooms and a living room located downstairs, offering a quiet and relaxing space to unwind. Upstairs, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room for your convenience. The two levels are connected by a 7-step interior stairwell, so please keep this in mind when booking.

Please note that this is part of a family home. The host lives upstairs with a toddler and a friendly dog, so you may occasionally hear normal household sounds during the day.
The apartment is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a desk, and a desk chair.

The Salty kiss was very welcoming from the moment we arrived to the day we left. Everything was excellent. The place is well maintained, very neat and family friendly. The supplies were adequate for my family and I. Most of all, I loved the kitchen! I was able to cook all the meals I wanted just like I would do at home. We all loved staying at the Salty Kiss.

There were so many little extras - milk/cream in the fridge for coffee, coffee, tea, snacks, bottled water plus soaps and toothbrushes. Everything you would need was covered. It was spotless. The location was great and in a quiet community. So much room to park. The space was very large. The beds were comfortable. It was a great value.

There were many amenities on hand, and our host was more than willing supply what we needed, if anything. Everything was as shown on the photos and descriptions. Thank you so much. We certainly recommend this property.

We felt like we were at home. Very quiet family hosts. A beautiful neighbourhood15-30 minutes to all that St. John’s has to offer. Yard is fenced with a driveway gate. Oh did I mention the mature trees in yard. Separate entrance with code and key. Just a side note, as a builder. I admire the difficulty over coming many challenges making this a comfortable space with a view! Communication was not hosts, it was the system used by app.

The property is advertised accurately. I am from Torbay but live in the Yukon now. I wanted to be in this area as my base and it was a good call. I have mobility issues and missed that it had stairs but was able to make it work. This is on me… not David (the owner). The property is well located, is spacious and was well appointed. The creme and milk in the fridge on day one was an especially nice touch. The property is fenced and both the family and dog are incredibly friendly. I highly recommend the Salty Kiss for short or extended stays.

This is a lovely place to stay! It's just outside of St John's in Torbay which we loved. The pub is within walking distance and they have such great food!!!! The family who own the house are so lovely they have a very friendly dog. The mattress in the one room is one you sink into which worked for me. We really enjoyed our stay.
