3 - Bedroom, Executive-Class Villa with sandy swimming beach

Welcome to the Blue Pearl, a recently built, executive-class, 3-bedroom vacation home -- one of three vacation homes located on our 50-acre, "Stay and Play" oceanside destination with a stunning, secluded 4-acre sandy beach zone -- a great place for swimming, beach walks, jogging and more. Come rest, relax, recharge and reconnect with nature in comfort and style while being a half-hour drive from the highly acclaimed Cabot Cliffs Golf Course and an hour from the world-famous Cabot Trail.

If enjoying Cape Breton’s natural beauty in comfort and style is important, then you have come to the right place.


The Blue Pearl is packed full of modern amenities including 9-foot ceilings, a well-equipped open-concept kitchen (with an island, bar stools and premium stainless steel appliances), satellite TV, air conditioning (installed in Nov 2020), a laundry center and ocean and/or /nature views from every room. The spacious master bedroom has a King-sized bed, a private 3-piece bathroom, and a walk-in closet while the other two bedrooms have comfortable Queen-sized beds and access to the main bathroom. All beds have ultra-comfortable pillow-top mattresses and premium linens, and all bedrooms have blinds and screens to help you get a good night's sleep.

Outside, from the giant wooden sundeck, you can take in captivating ocean views and stunning Cape Breton sunsets while enjoying a glass of wine or a fine meal. The sundeck has a comfortable outdoor dining table and chairs as well as a propane BBQ.
Within our 50-acre property, the Blue Pearl sits on an expansive 2-acre lot with a giant private lawn.

For those interested in taking in some near-magical scenery, picturesque Colindale Beach (located on the property) is a leisurely 5-10 minute walk down our nature trail which meanders through a field of giant wildflowers and winds alongside a sparkling freshwater pond and emerald green sand dunes. The giant, 4-acre sandy, secluded beach features 1,000+ feet of water frontage, sand and warm swimming waters which often exceeds 21 degrees Celcius (70 degrees Fahrenheit) in the summer, with swimming possible through October. Relax in one of our beach chairs and listen to the sound of the waves crash on the shore while breathing in the fresh ocean air. The beach area is also a great place for a jog, meditation, beachcombing, beach volleyball, evening walks and, of course, photography -- especially in the evening when the western sun illuminates the deep blue sea, the waves, the beach and the dunes. The lighting in the evening is almost magical. And, the sunsets here are world-class.

Our location makes for an excellent basecamp for enjoying Cape Breton in comfort and style. We are a scenic half-hour drive from the world-class Cabot Cliffs Golf course and whale watching in Inverness and an hour drive from the starting point of the world-famous Cabot Trail. The lakeside town of Baddeck, the historical Fortress of Louisburg and fishing expeditions are all easy day trips from our property.

Closer by, we are an easy 5-minute drive from the shops, restaurants, tuna fishing charters and five sandy swimming beaches of Port Hood, which is well-known for its warm waters, its summer/fall music festivals, its great seafood, its fishing charters and its 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).

A wonderful stay
This property was immaculate and had a lovely pastoral location with views of the sea. We loved the walking trail to the private sandy beach. The owner was quick to respond to questions. We had dear and bunnies in the yard each day and had no visibility if the other rentals on this large property. Highly recommend biking the Celtic trail with Mikes Bikes enike rentals. Also loved our hike at Egypt Falls and dinners and music at the Red Shoe pub

Fall Cape Breton Visit
Clean and relatively new this unit offers 3 bedroom and 2 baths with high ceilings and large outside deck. The host was very attentive and helpful. The only draw back was a perception that the cabin is close to the beach/ocean. It offers access to the beach via 5-7 minute walking path and the beach is sandy, wide and private. Overall lovely unit for entertaining and visiting the local Cabot Trail.

Please don’t make us go home!
One of the most important aspects of renting is communication with the host. Michael could not have done more to assist us in any way. He was always quick to respond to any questions we had. Always pleasant and patient. The house is well appointed on a secluded hill overlooking the Northumberland Strait. (Nature trail to the beach .5 to .75 mile.) The house is beautifully decorated with a clean modern look and has everything you think you might need. The kitchen is fully equipped with all new appliances, dishes, etc. Bed was very comfortable. The deck was our favorite spot with a lovely view. It offered a large round table and chairs and 2 Adirondack chairs. Night sky perfect for star gazing. We caught several meteors. We felt like we were in the middle of nowhere yet were close enough for some spectacular day trips such as the Cabot Trail. We enjoyed the small communities surrounding us. Red Shoe Pub recommended for food, drink and live music! My husband and I had the house to ourselves but it would suit a family as well. We miss it already!

Peaceful beautiful location
This property is quiet, peaceful and beautifully appointed. A short walk to a private beach on groomed trails makes one feel it is done only for you. Other houses are also located on the property but are out of sight from each other offering privacy. The house is comfortable with everything needed for the best of stays. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a retreat with easy access to the rest of Cape Breton.

This property is perfection, beautifully laid out with great attention to detail. From china to glassware to towels to utensils, everything is consistently high end. The deck view is magnificent (even on a cloudy day) and the nature walk to the beach calms the soul. In all, a class act.

We recently spent 5 days at this lovely property! The house was immaculate and fully equipped.

This location will not disappoint. Colindale is a beautiful farming community on the western coast of Cape Breton. If you love sunsets then these Beach Villas are for you. Private Beach at your foot steps, close to the Celtic Shores Coastal bike trail and the quaint communities of Port Hood and Mabou. Lots to do and see. The villas are tastefully decorated and have everything you could possibly think of for a short or long stay. This is really a 5 star accommodation and I would highly recommend to anyone exploring CB island.
