I found that the apartment was a great value and perfect for my needs while visiting family and friends in St John's, Portugal Cove and St. Philips. The commute via rental car to any of these areas from Torbay is very reasonable and Paul and Karen were great hosts who made me feel very welcome. I have no hesitation in recommending this property to others. A single-kid family will be the best fit for this apartment. Couples and singles will find it perfect as well. Families with two or more kids will want to consider the use of cots or air mattresses, but there is plenty of available floor space, and the apartment itself is immaculate.

Paul and Karen were perfect hosts! Their apartment was quiet, spotless, convenient....the best we've stayed at so far. I would highly recommend this place. We look forward to staying there again! Thanks!!

Best Airbnb I've been to! Karen was a great host and provided a whole list of recommendations in the area. She also gave us lots of grocery basics like milk and bread and provided us an extra air mattress when we requested it which was awesome. It was a great experience. The apartment is bright, clean and spacious and had everything we needed. Kitchen and laundry facilities were great as well. Convenient location with a car to attractions in the St. John's area (about 20 min to downtown), minutes from Torbay beach and the East Coast Trail. Would highly recommend and I would stay at Karen and Paul's again. We had a great trip, one to remember for a long time!

Best host a guest could ask for! So helpful, fun, and good natured! They made my mom and brother's vacation one for the books. I didn't think they were going to come home... :)

Live here is the best experience in Airbnb I've ever had. The house is really beautiful and clean. Paul and Karen are very hospitality. They prepared wine and food, gave us lots of suggestions about where to go and helped us a lot. Hope to see them again.

We spent a wonderful time in the St John's area. Karen and Paul were great hosts and very helpful with suggestions of things to see/do, etc. The unit is just great, large screen TV, comfortable beds, super clean and well organized. The kitchen is well equipped and our hosts even provided us with spices, and basics to have breakfast without having to shop on the day we arrived. With a rental car, this location was perfect for us as it's near grocery stores, St John's and also the airport. I recommend it without any reservations.

This place was so great. It was clean, really comfortable and close to the beach. Would love to stay here again

Clean, comfortable apartment in a good location for exploring the Avalon Peninsula. Pasty was an excellent communicator and pays attention to details that make the stay special. I'd recommend her place for short or long stays.

Lots of space, extra touches, laundry and Patsy even had food in the fridge for us! It was a great stray!

Spacious, no hassle, great location and price! Would definitely stay here again. Torbay is so close to airport, amenities, airport and St. John's, as well as having it's own authentic appeal with stunning ocean views.

Patsy is a great communicator and helped us feel comfortable in her suite. I really appreciated the breakfast items left for us and the thoughtfulness in the welcoming design of the suite.

Nice quiet spot

We enjoy our short stay at Patsay's house. The home is spacious, clean and comfortable and close to the airport. I would definite recommand.

Great location. You're outside of the city, but only a short drive away. Walking distance from the ocean as well. I was in town for 28 days for work, and this was ideal for us. Patsy was a great host and I would absolutely stay there again! Bonus, her cute little dog came to visit on our 2nd last day.

Great location by the airport. Very new and clean.

We enjoyed our stay at Norma's. Norma was very welcoming and the house was impeccably clean.

We needed a last minute booking close to the airport for a late flight arrival and Norma's was perfect for the situation we were in. She was responsive and easy to communicate with, and accommodated our very late arrival graciously. The room was clean and comfortable and a few minutes from the airport. Perfect for a late or early flight!

Lovely clean home, situated right beside the airport.

Walter's place is fabulous. It is really an executive home and the location is also great. We enjoyed every aspect of our stay there. We highly, and without any reservation, recommend it to every one.

Everything was great! Really helpfull ans thoufhtfull host! We had a great stay at kelly's place!

Kelly's place was spacious, charming and impeccably clean. It is in a quiet neighbourhood with good access to public transport and, if you enjoy walking, is within walking distance of Quidi Vidi, Signal Hill and other attractions. We would definitely stay there again.

Kelly's place was fantastic, clean, and located in a quite area just outside of the downtown core. Public transit was right around the corner, and just a short six minute drive to the local Dominion. Kelly made check in a breeze, and was always available for any questions we had before, and during our stay. Kelly's place exceeded our expectations, we would love to return during our next visit to St. John's.

Our stay at Kelly's was fantastic! I am quite allergic to pets so I was worried, but Kelly keeps her home so clean I didn't need to take any allergy medication. Check in was a breeze and Kelly answered all of my questions in minutes. Beds were very comfortable and the bean bag bear was a much appreciated touch after a long days travel. Will be staying again if I return to NL. The photos do not do this house justice!! Thank you!!

I can't say enough great things about Kelly and her place. Her house was very clean and exactly as pictured. Getting downtown was just a small can ride away which was really great! The private driveway was an added bonus as we had rented a car for a couple of days. Kelly was the perfect host! She was prompt in her replies and even supplied us with a couple of missing items within hrs! We honestly could not have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Kelly's place - you won't regret it!

Kelly as extremely responsive and the house was clean and spacious. Would highly recommend :)

Well-appointed, clean, tidy home with a cute little yard, parking etc. close to Quidi Vidi. About a 10 minute ($12-15) cab ride to downtown St. John's – but worth that for the price of the stay. Kelly was easy to communicate with and there was nothing she left out in terms of little "extras" like phone docks, Bluetooth speakers/wifi etc. Definitely recommend this place.

Great place. As expected

Perfect host perfect spot highly recommended

One couch was not enough seating for my family if 4. Lack of furniture makes the apartment feel empty. Having The Washer and Dryer in the apartment was a great. Great location in the city.

Thanks for sharing your basement apartment with us. We enjoyed having a base to explore your city. Levi was easy to communicate with. The place was clean and as described.

We are 2 couples the place was great clean easy to find and Levi was very helpful

Had a great stay at Levi's place ! He was an excellent host with a very fast response. Would love to stay there again.

This is a nice apartment on the bottom floor of a house. We were there for 2 nights and had no troubles at all. We had a great stay and a great time in St. John's, thanks for sharing your place and all the best.

Place was awesome. Only thing was the distance from downtown. Washer and dryer included which was a bonus after shopping to wash all the new clothes before packing it

This was my family's first time using airbnb. My family enjoyed the home, it was located directly on the ocean in pouch cove. Pouch Cove is located roughly 20 minutes from St. John's. It is a quiet little community, and everyone is friendly. We chose this location as we have a lot of family that lives in and around this area. There is a corner store is within a 5 min walk, which carries most all necessities, and great ice cream. The home had a nice back yard for my kids to run around. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and spotting the whales and other wild life. As the back of the home was facing east, we found that the home blocked most of the winds when they were coming from the west, and still enjoyed the deck on the westerly windy days. The east coast trail was located directly behind the home, we did get to hike the trail for a little ways. There was 4 bedrooms, 1 on the 2nd floor, 1 on the main floor and 2 in the basement. Each bedroom had access to their own bathroom, which was nice. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the property.

If you intend to hike the east coast trail, this is the perfect hub for covering all the sections north of St John's. The trail literally starts behind the house; you are looking at it (and, the people going on or coming out of it) while sitting on the deck. We were a group of 8 and the place was perfect. We could relax in the evening, watch the sunrise over the ocean from the living room or the bedrooms and prepare for our daily treks. There are not many choices for eating out, but with a full kitchen and, most days too tired to even consider going out, it worked out to have cooked dinners at the home.

The house is comfortable and welcoming, with a gorgeous view of Pouch Cove. We visited in April (crazy, right?) and were rewarded with fantastic views of sea ice and icebergs from the back windows. The East Coast Trail is easily accessible from the house, and we took advantage of hiking along the stunning coastline. The drive into St. John's is quick and easy, so when the weather wasn't perfect we went to the city museums. The house is on the main road in Pouch Cove and within easy walking distance to town. The upshot: it's a great location whether you want to enjoy the outdoors or the local culture. Betty was a wonderful host and a pleasure to deal with. She responded quickly to our inquiries and offered advice for enjoying the Pouch Cove region.

The ocean view is absolutely mesmerizing and the property is both large, warm and welcoming. A wonderful week in a great location.

Sarah and her family and their four-legged family members are all such wonderful beings and hosts ! The house is beautiful and very well maintained. Everything you may need is available. The location is awesome and the sunrise from the deck is priceless !!! Going back next summer ! Thanks Sarah

We had a wonderful time at Sarah's place. Host was extremely friendly and checkin was easy. Outstanding location with amazing view of Pouch Cove.

It was an amazing and beautiful home. Very close to East Coast Trail. Spectacular views. The owners were very good and accommodating. I couldn't say enough good about the owners or the rental property. 5+ stars all around!

When we arrived we must have saw a dozen whales in the ocean from the view from the porch. Great spot to bring your young children.

Met us as soon as we pulled up into the driveway - showed us around the property - assured us if we had any questions to let her know. She went out of her way when we requested one item. Much appreciated. Great Newfoundland hospitality. Loved every minute of it.

This is excellent accommodations., beyond expectations. Highly recommend to anyone who likes relaxing by the ocean. Will definitely use again if the opportunity arises.

Amazing location! Sarah was very welcoming and available for any needs. Truest one of my favourite places I have been too... highly recommended for anyone wanting to have a great experience in Newfoundland.

Emily and Omor are both great. They are young and active and took us for a hiking around the area. The place is out of the city and in a quite place. Best place to go for a nature walk and see cove. Can make fire at night.

Staying with Milena in Pouch Cove for two weeks was very enjoyable. Her house was nestled close to the sea and we had a magnificent and breathtaking view of the bay. She was a very gracious and generous host. The room we stayed in was very clean and comfortable. The back deck was perfect for meals in the open sea air. Overall, it an amazing experience.

The overall experience was very pleasant. The host couldn't have been more accommodating, accessible, nice and friendly. The location was super...sitting on the back deck looking out onto the water was just what the doctor ordered. I'd definitely go back.

What a great home! The views, the setting, the location, the host! All amazing! Would love to go back, and would recommend others to stay with Milena.

We had a lovely stay at Milena's cottage. She is a very resourceful and easy going host who gave us a lot of information on what to do where to eat etc. The location of the cottage is great - an easy drive to St John's and many attractions. Pouch Cove is a quiet little town with a great view of the Atlantic. The cottage is very cozy and well equipped, especially for families and has a great ocean view from the deck. Overall I would highly recommend staying in Otter Gulch House if you are looking for a quiet and family friendly place to stay close to St John's.

Beautiful location; excellent accommodations and hospitality. I enjoyed Milena's delicious home cooking with ingredients from her garden, and her advice on local walks and features. I was only able to stay for one night but thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would gladly have stayed longer.

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at Milena’s house in Pouch Cove. Milena was very quick to respond to my questions and provided us with helpful information about the area. Her house was beautiful and clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. I really enjoyed being able to look out the windows and see the ocean. The location was great - close enough to St John’s to do all our grocery shopping, but far enough away that we felt like we were in the country. I’d very happily recommend Milena’s house to other travellers.

Sandra and Phil were amazing hosts and their home was all you could ask for when it comes to a rental. Amazing ocean views, incredibly clean and well kept, every amenity you might need. They even had the fridge, cupboards, bathroom, and bedroom stocked with snacks, food, coffee, soaps, towels, tooth paste, you name it. You probably won't find better people to rent from!!

This was by far the best air bnb I have ever stayed at. The location is great; we saw ice bergs from the back deck. And the house is beautiful. Sandra and Phil are incredibly well organized, professional, and overall warm and hospitable people. They made us feel very welcome and went above and beyond to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. We were extremely impressed with everything and would recommend it to anyone!

What a great place to stay!!! A very clean and lovely home. Spectacular ocean views. Sandra and Phil were amazing hosts. So much thought put into every single detail, ensuring the most comfortable home away from home. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again.

Sandra's house offers all the comforts of home...away from home. Spotless, organized and private in this old fishing community with amazing east coat trails close by.

Lovely view and walking trails nearby. The hosts go out of their way to assure your comfort. The barbecue was wonderful and she also offered us the option to do our laundry. Fast and easy to stay here and get to St. John's. It was quiet and restful.

This place is absolutely amazing! For many reasons 1. First, it has the most amazing view of the bay 2. The house is immaculate and clean 3. The beds are comfortable 4. The place has everything you could possibly need 5. It is extremely affordable. 6. Phil and Sandra are extremely pleasant people 7. Had we known what it was like, we would have stayed longer! I can't stress enough that this is the best deal you will get, hands down. We got there and noticed how well-kept the property was. This place had anything and everything we needed. Sandra even stocked the house with toys and lego for our kids. There was a tricycle and a swing for our little ones, a large spacious deck for them to play on, TV with all the channels, high speed internet, milk, eggs, toiletries, colouring books for our kids, board games, washer and drying, dishwasher,-- when I say Sandra has everything you could possibly need, I mean absolutely everything. They are excellent at communication and follow up before, during, and after the stay to make sure everything is going well. You will not want to miss out on this place at all. It is about 15-20 minutes out of St. Johns, but trust me, it is worth it, and Pouch Cove is stunning and relaxing. The quality of what Phil and Sandra are doing is the best I have seen yet. This was a highlight of our trip.

Sandra and Phil's house is our best air B&B experience. They are so thoughtful they provide a large selection of snacks and anything you may possibly need when you are away from home. They even got some ice creams, eggs, coffee, fresh milk, bread, a good selection of cereals. It makes us feel at home. The house is clean well organized with beautiful view and deck. From the yard we watched sun rise on the ocean. We would definitely stay in their home again next time we are in Newfoundland.

Very comfortable!

The host canceled this reservation 90 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We spent three nights at Roger and Deanne 's cottage early in September . It was a great first experience with airbnb. Deanne and Roger welcomed us at the cottage and provided lots of local information and history. We were awed by the sea views from the cottage and the relaxing atmosphere. We wished we could have stayed longer to better appreciate the spacious sitting and dining area and deck with unobstructed views out to the ocean. It's a quiet location with direct access to the East Coast Trail just beyond the cottage frontage. Roger and Deanne treated us to true Newfoundland hospitality...great hosts.

Loved our stay here. The house is beautiful. A gorgeous place to relax and enjoy the design of the house, yet not feeling like you can't use everything. It's an open-plan yet cosy and homely property with everything you could need. Lots of space in gorgeous surroundings and a really convenient location just 25 mins outside of St John's. Very hard to leave!

This was a beautiful home, perfect for families and groups of friends to hang out, relax, and enjoy each others' company. Close to a number of great hiking trails (Torbay Point was especially breathtaking), this was a perfect location for hikers. It also provided a quiet place to retire after spending the day roaming in St. John's and the vicinities. Susan provided very helpful recommendations for eating/groceries in the area and for restaurants in St. John's. Also, if you appreciate great design, this is the house for you.

A gorgeously designed, immaculately clean, private, peaceful getaway. Small touches like personalised greeting gifts, a wide selection of kids' toys, and acceptance of pets made this by far the best Airbnb stay we've had so far. Thank you Susan!

My husband and I got married on this property and stayed a week with our family. We hosted a 50 person wedding, utilizing both back yards with 2 large tents. We held the dance in the living room. We loved staying here, we enjoyed a few nights after to have some time alone. The home is spacious, well designed, and had everything we needed to host a few family dinners. Susan and Mike were very professional to work with. They communicated with us quickly, and we're able to help if we had issues. Their home is a showstopper, the pictures are just the tip of the iceberg, and I'd highly recommend this home for a group stay, wedding, or a couples retreat. Thanks Susan!

Gorgeous property -- both the house and the backyard.

Host is a horrible communicator. Double booked us with another family and took our money for five nights and only had us booked for four. Wouldn't let us check in as expected and left us scrambling to find a place to stay two days before our wedding. Then never refunded us for the extra night we paid for. After much argumentation and stress, the day after we checked out of the place finally refunded a partial amount and called it a 'conversion fee'. For our troubles she offered us an early check in the next day then we showed up at 1-2pm to a house not cleaned towels on the floor etc from previous guests. Then told us we could also have a late Check out for our troubles and then had cleaners show up at 10am while my fiancée was in the shower and I was still in bed. At the same time the host was texting us saying it is expected we clean the house and take out our garbage etc before we were even checked out! Under the couch was filthy full of garbage and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a year. Spent 3-4 hours cleaning ourselves when we checked in to get it ready for our wedding we were hosting at the house/tent outside the next day for our 48 guests (which the host was aware of). She also promised us a case of Rose for our troubles and failed to follow through. The day before as well one of her concrete flower pots inthe front of the house exploded randomly next to my mother (I'm surprised she didn't have to go to the hospital) also my (now husband) tried to have a romantic night, the night after the wedding and her fireplace walls caved in (thought we were going to have to call the fire dept). Then my husband burned himself trying to fix it. Also we tried to use the soaker tub twice after our wedding and ran out of water both times then couldn't even shower. No words to describe the disrespect we received from the host, we will still be terribly upset by the experience for weeks to come

Susan's home is truly special. It is beautifully designed with great attention to comfort and utility. Each room has been very well considered and makes a family gathering or group get-together work extremely well. The grounds are great and the location is excellent for exploring not only St. John's, but the area around it. The house is fully equipped with everything that you need. The master bedroom is spectacular and each of the other three bedroom are very comfortable. It really was a delight to stay here and come back after each day's excursion.

A wonderful home in a beautiful setting. Susan has almost everything you need available in her kitchen. The house is even more open than pictures show. The windows just let in the beauty of the setting. It was a joy to stay there.

Matthew was very responsive and checking in was a very easy process. The home is how it is described. It is a cozy, rustic place to stay but the views are beautiful and it really does fit in with what you would expect staying in a small fishing village in New Foundland

We loved staying in Bauline, NFLD. We enjoyed the small village setting, but also being close to St. John's. The home was comfy and Matthew was very accommodating. The hiking trails around the house are fantastic. We watched several breathtaking sunsets over the harbour, then cozied up to read and watch movies after dark. Memories for a lifetime.

William Le Grow House is a lovely place to stay located in a beautiful, peaceful setting. It is clean and extremely well stocked. We did a little hiking on the east coast trail which goes right through Bauline. Le Grow House is only 20 to 30 minutes from St. John's and is a nice place to come home to after a day of sight seeing. We enjoyed having a fire in the wood burning stove. Matthew is an excellent host, very accommodating and always easy to contact.

Matthew was very responsive, providing answers to all our questions promptly. He was helpful with extra tourist information about the area answering questions and leaving out a variety of tourist information in the house. The kitchen was well stocked, everything was clean, we especially enjoyed the BBQ and wood stove.

The William LeGrow house was great! Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay. The house is fully appointed, including toys for little ones, books, kitchen supplies, outdoor grill, movies for a rainy day, and more. Essentially what we have at home. Matthew was attentive, even dropping off some laundry detergent because he noted the low level before we'd arrived, but not at all intrusive. The neighborhood is so quiet and beautiful with much natural exploring to be had!

A place like home! If you are going to visit Newfoundland and St John's with friends or family you found the perfect place to stay. It is not directly in St John's but only 20 min drive away and we were so glad that we decided to stay here for the long weekend. It is a beautiful home with ocean view enough space to stay with 5-6 people and it comes with a beautiful fireplace (which you might need even in the summer!). You don't need to bring anything since you'll have everything here including hand crafted soap from St John's. Amazing! Bauline is cute little village with very nice neighbours and a hiking trail directly in front of your door. Did I mention the ocean view? :) If we are coming back (next time during whale season) we would definitely stay here again. Thanks Matthew for an amazing time in Newfoundland!

A lovely cozy home that is well equipped. It is quiet in the village, very friendly neighbours and a very quiet sleep at night.

Matthew was a wonderful person to interact with--very considerate and thoughtful but in no way intrusive. It really felt like spending a few days in our family's place on the coast. The house itself is tidy and charming and stocked with a wonderful variety of books about the region and its people. A great experience.
