About this property

The Merchant Quarters: Contemporary seaside charm

As seen on HGTV, The Merchant’s Quarters at Rennesouth, is a fully appointed designer unit on historic Main Street, downtown and a quick hop-step from the harbor’s edge. With rich interiors featuring reclaimed wood, marble and metal finishes, exposed brick and contemporary furnishings, this apartment is the perfect base for travelers seeking location, luxury and comfort in a modern, industrial-chic setting.
The space
A unique glass partition wall divides the space, giving the unit an airy, loft like feel. In the living room, soft leather seating invites you to read a book, watch TV, or sip a cocktail.

For those who need to work remotely, a desk area is ready for you, and our WIFI is excellent!

Brew the perfect morning cuppa, cook up some fresh lobster and pull up a seat at the butcher block counter with your friends in our fully equipped kitchen. Crack open one of Yarmouth’s famous craft beers or pour a glass of one of Nova Scotia’s award winning vintages and enjoy!

The stunning bathroom boasts moody black tile and a large walk in shower. Throw on one of our cozy terry cloth bathrobes and enjoy the complimentary toiletries.

Slumber in sophistication in the elegant main bedroom, equipped with a queen size bed, blackout curtains, and sumptuous linens. A secondary bedroom with a queen bed offers quiet privacy for additional guests.

In the evening, gather outdoors around the shared firepit in a cozy Adirondack chair and watch the sunset.

We didn’t forget the laundry! A washer and dryer is located just off of the front mudroom to use at your convenience.

An extra perk? Your travel tales will now include your experience in one of the beautifully renovated units featured on HGTV’s Trading Up with Mandy Rennehan. How cool is that?

Guest access
Free guest parking is on 13 Moody's Lane to the right of the building. This parking area leads to your back door with the smart-lock!
Other things to note

We are a gay-owned, 2SLGBTQ+ friendly business. All are welcome here!

The Merchant Quarters is stunning. The decor and attention to detail are top notch. It was meticulously clean, had really comfortable mattresses, extra pillows, robes...it was like staying in a five star hotel.The welcome gifts were a very thoughtful touch. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic Stay!

I wish we were staying here longer. We arrived in Yarmouth by the ferry from Bar Harbor, ME. The home was absolutely beautiful. The beds were really comfortable and the home was very tastefully decorated. Would stay again, thank you!

Absolutely gorgeous apartment. Great location in downtown. Any kitchen gadget you could want is here. Comfortable beds. I've deducted a point due to things that are important to us, but probably don't matter to most people. No windows can be opened. Fresh air is important to us. / This first floor apartment is literally on the sidewalk of Main St. And you can hear the people above you. So we didn't care for the noise level. / Tim is a person who likes to unpack wherever we stay. A large closet with lots of hangers was provided, but zero drawers or shelves for small clothes.
