Overview
Sleeps: 8 Bedrooms: 4 Bathrooms: 2
Get away from it all at Tahiti Sweetie, a classic beach cottage with nostalgic charm! This roomy cottage can be found on the south end of Topsail Island, an area famous for its gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. Use your private beach access to indulge in long walks on the beach or watch the sunrise over the ocean from the cozy covered porch.
Located near sleepy Topsail Beach, you’re never far from shopping, dining, and fishing piers. Visitors and locals love the quiet, uncrowded beaches and laid-back atmosphere.
Wander in from the beach into the family room, decorated with fun, nautical-themed furniture and large windows that provide beautiful views of the ocean. The living room opens out onto the kitchen dining area, allowing conversation and laughter to flow through the space. You’ll have plenty of room to cook in the retro kitchen, well-stocked and fitted with sleek cabinets and surfaces. At the bar, you’ll have seats enough for 3 with room for 6 more at the beachy kitchen table.
Just off the porch on the north side, drift off to sleep in a tropical four-poster king bed. You’ll find a pair of delightfully nautical singles next door which share a bathroom with the king. On the other side of the house, a cozy queen bedroom also opens out onto the porch overlooking the ocean. Similarly, the south side queen shares a bathroom with two singles laid out in a typical “H” plan.
Share lost childhood memories with the kids in this affordable oceanfront rental in south Topsail Island. Step back in time to grandma’s cottage at Tahiti Sweetie, the classic beach cottage!
**Linens are available for $50, plus tax. This house rents from Saturday to Saturday during the summer.

Will NEVER go back to this property.
House has a great layout & plenty of space. Unfortunately it smells horrible!! Very musty, moldy smell. We opened patio doors to air it out but did not help. Closets smelled even worse. Linens were not delivered to the house. Last night unwelcome guests came in - bathroom crawling with ants & one of 4 bedrooms had ants. Ocean view was nice - this SHOULD have been a great experience but was not! This was our 3rd time using VRBO and only time we were disappointed.
Great location! Right on the beach!!
This property is right on the beach! You can walk out any of the three back doors and be on the sand in seconds! We enjoyed watching the sunrise, waves, shore birds, and dolphins from the deck and the beach itself. The kitchen is fully equipped and everything worked well, the king bed was quite comfortable, and the showers had nice showerheads and plenty of hot water (nice in November). The only reason why I did not rate the cottage 5 stars is because it needs some (more) updating. The carpet in the back half of the house is awesome - very soft and clean, and the stove and refrigerator work just right. However, there are other areas that need to be addressed - the carpet on the front half of the house, there is a mildew smell on all of the glasses and dishware (we rinsed things before using and all was well), the sliding glass doors stick (and can be very difficult to open and close), and the folding doors over the sliders are not all attached to their parts and may fall over. That being said, we enjoyed our stay here. :)
Beach on Beach on Beach
This was the first time my family stayed at a home on the beach and we loved it! It was really nice to have the space for everyone to relax and not be on top of each other in one small room. We loved having all the amenities we have at home at the beach. It made meal time a lot easier than piling everyone into the car and going out to eat for every meal. The home has a nice layout for anyone who either has kids or a bunch of single friends. The view...when we return next year, I don't know if we will be able to stay anywhere else after being spoiled with the view of the ocean. Our family even saw a couple of dolphins in the mornings! I'd say the only downside to this home, are the blind/shutter things. These are a little hard to use if you're not used to something like this, however, we cant wait to stay again!!!
Great beach access and good floor plan for multiple families
We loved the direct access to a lovely part of the beach. No matter when we walked down, we found just enough other people on the beach for it to be friendly, but never crowded. (Of course, it was early October :-) There were "tide pools" at low tide - a big win for little people. Shells were plentiful and pretty. The sand was perfect for the builders among us.
The floor plan worked well for two small families plus a grandma and an occasional guest. The "great room" was big enough to accommodate playing kids and resting adults. Being able to see the ocean from the kitchen as well as the living & dining rooms helped make that work lighter.
The beachside porch is covered and while it's a bit low for the kiddos, adults were able to enjoy an ocean view while rocking.
I loved the outdoor shower and all the kids enjoyed the "hose off" option.
There were a few items that should be tended to (like the accordion doors to the beach deck, and some slats needing replaced on the railings) but it was in great shape for an older home.
All in all, a really great rental.
Great space & location; needs to be kept cleaner!
On arrival we were impressed by the spaciousness of the living area and access to the beach. However, we found many items of cutlery and cookware had been put away into cupboards unwashed, which was very unsatisfactory. Also, the HVAC filter had obviously not been replaced in a very long time and the dishwasher was ineffective in washing items in the upper tray. The agent provided clean cookware and renewed the HVAC filter but was unable to fix the dishwasher in the time we were there. We rent on the island 2-3 times each year; we'll probably be looking for an alternative rental in the future.
Loved the large porch for relaxing and watching the ocean!
This property is a little older and could use a few repairs, but we had a wonderful time at the beach. The best aspect of the house is the large covered porch where we spent most of our time.
