The Ultimate Beach House
This is one of the most unique rental properties in Newfoundland. It sits on a cliff overlooking Conception Bay and treats visitors to epic sunsets and the kind of tranquility only possible when nestled in nature. The joys of life on the water are right at your fingertips, with opportunities for kayaking, fishing and hiking, but a quick 15-minute drive will bring you into St. John’s for delicious local meals.

The Newfoundland Beach House
After long, active days outdoors, the interior of the beach house provides a calming, neutral space to unwind and restore your energy. We love how the all-white decor fades away and makes the beach house’s large windows the focal point of the home’s style. Learn more about the Newfoundland Beach House.
