The cutest house on the beach

The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We have a 3 and 1 year old so being right on the beach was perfect. I watched the sunrise every morning on the beach while the kids slept in. We loved staying here so much and hopefully will again!!

Amazing getaway

Came here from Seattle WA and stayed 3 days with my husband. Neither of us had ever seen NC beaches before, being able to just walk right out of the house and onto the beach was so worth it! As another reviewer said the house is rustic but if your in it for location this hous is it.

Lovely little beach house

This property was perfect! It was exactly as described and fit our family of five very nicely. More importantly, the view and location were AMAZING! Also, this house had everything we needed, from the linens, to the coffeemaker, beach toys for the kids, chairs on the deck, and a washer/dryer... I really cannot stress enough how perfect it all was. The decor was so cute too! We were very pleased and would 100% stay in this property again!

Great Experience!

The house was located perfectly! We enjoyed the nice deck and being able to walk right onto the beach! The house was very clean and plenty of towels, wash cloths, and sheets were provided. The washer and dryer is a bit loud, but who cares when you can listen to the waves instead! This place is perfect for toddlers. It’s so nice just being able to go in and out as you please.

Family Vacation

We loved this location. Being right on the beach was great. My grandsons loved going out at night looking for crabs. Would highly recommend this beach house. The only thing is they need another step before you get on the sand. The step down is really high and hard to get back up on (especially if you are an older person). Overall we loved staying here.

Great Little Beach House

The house was perfect for our family. The kitchen is definitely small so it made cooking a bit of a challenge at times, but we knew that going in. The deck is great with acces directly to the beach. There is a public beach access ramp about 100 yards down, but the beach was still fairly quite since there are open lots on both sides of the house. Would definitely stay again and have already recommend the house to others.

Hi Glen, We are SO happy that you enjoyed your stay! We love the house, too and can't think of a better spot on the beach. The kitchen is really the only thing about the house that we would change, if we could. When the home was initially built in the 60's, beach houses didn't have air conditioners and they were exclusively used during the summer. This meant that a lot of cooking didn't take place so kitchens weren't a priority when building. We are always actively looking for ways to maximize the space and are definitely open for suggestions from those that spend time in the home.

Great little beach bungalow

Our family of 4 was looking for an early season escape from Covid captivity and this house did just the trick. We were able to get away and still distance! Location can't be beat; the ocean is your backyard. Only constructive criticism is that the full bath and kitchen are a little tired. What a great week!!

Extra beachy family vacation

This was our 4th year at the Riki Tiki. We have 3 kids (ages 6, 4, & 2). The fact that it is right on the ocean and super quiet at night are just a couple reasons why it’s the perfect vacation house for a young family. It gives us the opportunity to stay out on the beach longer and more frequently. This house is no frills.. super simple layout, however has everything we need for a whole week. We cooked every meal in the tiny little kitchen (you have to get creative with counter space) without going out to eat once. With that said, it’s an older house that could use some work. Some decking boards are loose/exposed nails, kitchen sink faucet wobbly, and overall cleanliness was lacking this time around. There was sand and crumbs all around, dirty windows, killed 4 cockroaches, dirty drawers in dressers in bedrooms, broken fan chains on all ceiling fans… Although we wish to see better care taken on the house, the location is great and the sound of ocean waves kept us sleeping very well every night. I’m going to miss my long sunrise walks along the shore. Thank you Riki tiki for our relaxing annual beach trip!!

Thank you so much for returning to Riki Tiki for your fourth year—we’re honored to be part of your family’s annual beach tradition! It’s wonderful to hear that the location, peaceful atmosphere, and proximity to the ocean continue to make it a special place for your young family. We’re so glad you enjoyed those early morning walks and relaxing nights listening to the waves. We also truly appreciate your honest feedback about the condition of the home during this stay. We’re sorry to hear that the cleanliness and maintenance didn’t meet the standards you’ve come to expect. Your comments about the loose decking boards, kitchen faucet, dresser drawers, and other items have been noted, and we’re working with our team to address these issues promptly. Cleanliness is especially important to us, and we will be taking steps to ensure our cleaning crew maintains the attention to detail our guests deserve. Riki Tiki is a simple and older beach cottage, and we know it comes with its quirks—but we’re committed to maintaining it with the care and attention that keeps your stay both comfortable and safe. Thank you again for your loyalty and thoughtful review. We hope to welcome you back next year for another peaceful beachside escape!

The location was great but the house needed some attention.

At our stay this summer we enjoyed the location and loved how close the house was to the beach. The beach was not crowded which was also enjoyable. The issues that we had were primarily bug related. On the first three evenings of our stay we had to kill numerous small roaches in the kitchen, so by the end of the stay we began leaving the kitchen light on. That seemed to help but I am sure they were still present. We also had some issues with the toilets flushing correctly. Despite the issues we did enjoy ourselves, but would have enjoyed ourselves more if we did not have to deal with the roaches. I feel that the issues are correctable and that the property has great potential.

Our primary reason for renting Riki Tiki was for the location and the property doesn’t disappoint there. The cottage is feet from the beach and it’s amazing and convenient. The back deck was also great for watching the waves and seeing the stars at night.Beyond the location, the property has serious shortcomings. It’s very small and while there is a kitchen, there is almost no counter space since the stacked washer and dryer is in the kitchen too.The most significant issue was cleanliness and the quality of the furnishings. The house was dirty and many portions of it clearly hadn’t been cleaned in many months. We even found scattered belongings from previous renters under the beds. We had a serious odor problem in the main bathroom when we checked in and we’ll give credit to the leasing company for responding quickly and effectively. That said, there was no way the cleaning people could have missed the very bad odor coming from the bathroom which questions how detailed of a cleaning job they did.Overall, most accessories were poor quality. Kitchen utensils were old and some are broken and appliances were clearly inexpensive. Even the shower curtains were the inexpensive vinyl plain types you’d have in college. We understood that with a cottage, we were getting a small space, which was fine with us, but we didn’t expect the amenities to be so lacking in quality.A very minimal investment in small upgrades could make a big difference with this property.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the unbeatable oceanfront location and the views from the back deck — it truly is a special spot for watching the waves and stars. We’re very sorry to hear that parts of your stay did not meet expectations, particularly regarding cleanliness and the condition of some furnishings. That’s not the standard we strive to maintain, and we appreciate you bringing these details to our attention. We’ve shared your comments with our housekeeping and property management teams so we can address the concerns you mentioned and make improvements where needed. We truly value your input, as it helps us ensure future guests have the best possible experience at Riki Tiki. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to see the improvements firsthand.

Nice stay in Surf City

The property is exactly what you see online. One nice perk was there is a regular coffee pot and a Keurig so you have options! The kitchen is small and while it is fully stocked; we opted for paper plates, cups and plastic silverware. I try to be more earth friendly; but there really isn't room for washing up. Not a criticism; just a heads up in case you want to bring your own. Also; the sofa cushions are pretty thin. You definitely feel the frame when you are sitting on them. So far as the location; you are literally on the beach. There is no long walkway to get over dunes, etc. This is what we found the most appealing. Someone else mentioned the washer and dryer are loud. This is true. I opted to run the washer when we went to bed so it didn't disrupt us watching tv. This is the first house I have stayed at in years where I had to pick up a key somewhere else. Given how common key pads are; this would be more ideal. The different bedroom colors were fun and vibrant; the beach décor was cute without being garish. It's a sweet cottage and we enjoyed it. My earlier comments are not meant as a deterrent; but rather to prepare future guests for what to expect.
