“This was THE most perfect place for us to relax and feel like royalty on such a special and wonderful estate. So many zones for all different styles of relaxing and entertaining - from the outdoor fire, to the hot tub and pool - to living rooms with fireplaces and nooks to read and rest, or spaces for board games and chatting the day away. This home is so special and we felt special in it. Would recommend for families or groups who enjoy beautiful grounds, space to relax, time to unwind and feel like you are in your own private world. We will be back! Thank you for letting us share this amazing property, and for being such amazing hosts. Your attention to details and to us was the best we’ve ever experienced - exceptional service and an exceptional stay.”

“the view of the ocean towards the tip of the peninsula as we walked up the stairs took my breath away!! the house was clean and neat with all the necessary amenities. I really enjoyed looking out towards the ocean as i had my morning coffee and the family dinner we had on the outdoor patio, it was the exact environment we desired for our short family trip!! The host was helpful with our check in but be aware that there are 2 key safes! We loved the stay and would love to return again next summer!”

“We recently had the absolute pleasure of staying at Muskoka, Luxe Retreat with Pool, Spa & Fire Pit in Mount Martha, and it truly was divine in every single way. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away. The home is beautifully designed, immaculate, and so thoughtfully appointed — every detail has clearly been considered to create a luxurious yet warm and welcoming atmosphere. It instantly felt like a peaceful sanctuary, the perfect place to relax and reconnect as a family. The spaces are generous and light-filled, with stunning finishes and a layout that makes it ideal for both entertaining and unwinding. Whether we were enjoying slow mornings together, long lunches, or relaxed evenings, everything about the home made it effortless and special. The location is also perfect — peaceful and private, yet close enough to enjoy everything the Mornington Peninsula has to offer. It felt like our own private retreat while still being part of a beautiful coastal community. Most importantly, this stay gave our family one of the most amazing holidays we’ve ever had. The memories we created there are ones we will treasure forever. Muskoka is not just accommodation — it’s an experience. We cannot recommend it highly enough and would return in a heartbeat. ✨”

“My family and I loved spending a few day in this fabulous villa in Mount Martha managed by the group. The beds were very comfortable and clean. The sea view was unique. The decent sized swimming pool added to the joy of the kids. Very well equipped kitchen for families to prepare food. Very kind staff and responded to my inquiries quickly. Highly recommended and on my list to visit again.”

“We had the most incredible, relaxing stay at 270 Esplanade, booked through Lively Properties. From start to finish, the team was so helpful and made everything effortless. The house is even more stunning in person, with breathtaking bay views that captivated us daily. Our mornings were spent enjoying breakfast on the amazing deck, and we'd return there for dinner to watch the sunset over the water—it was pure bliss. In the evenings, we'd unwind in the tranquil spa. It was the little details that truly set this place apart, and we felt completely pampered and at ease. Lively Properties clearly puts so much care into their homes. We can't recommend them enough and are already dreaming of our next coastal getaway. A perfect 5-star experience!”
