BEACH FRONT gathering spot for family, friends and pups. WINTER RATES AVAILABLE!


BRITMOR TIKI HOUSE IS ONE OF ALLIGATOR POINT'S MOST POPULAR RENTALS...BOOK NOW!!

Pup Friendly; bring your fur babies (with EXCEPTIONS and a PET FEE). This is a rural and secluded location. Definitely not Panama City Beach! Read on.

Rates shown may be area averages and are not reflective of true daily and seasonal rates. Choose your dates to see actual rates.

Tiki House is a very unique yet awe-inspiring 3 bedroom - 2.5 bath house, that sits just feet from the beach, has been one of Alligator Point's most popular rentals. Waves, sunsets, sunrises, moon rises, fishing, shelling, watching the dolphins or simply relaxing can be enjoyed from the comfort of either the upper or lower decks. Both have furnished seating areas to aid in your conversations and relaxations. Just off the lower deck and a few steps down the boardwalk, you are on the beach to experience what the Alligator Point beach has to offer! The half bath and a separate hot/cold shower are available at ground level for ultra convenience. You'll love the outdoor granite top bar-height railing and barstools where a morning cup-o-joe or the evening beverage can be enjoyed while gazing at the waters of the Gulf. A full-size washer and dryer are located in the guest storeroom underneath, where you'll also find the half-bath and a charcoal grill for guest use. The kitchen is well stocked with dinnerware, pots and pans, plenty of eating and cooking utensils. The stove is a glass-top electric unit. The 24" oven and microwave are built into the wall nearby. Check further for more kitchen details on the amenities page. Please note, this house has two security cameras that monitor the driveway/front steps and the back steps. Management does not monitor the camera videos. Video is used in case of policy violations and are deleted 72 hours after checkout.

We have absolutely enjoyed our beach vacation, beautiful surroundings, cant say enough about the laid back beach atmosphere...if you want to come relax and just hang by the beach all day this is the place. Had great communication with the property owners, just overall loved this place for my family. We will be making plans to come back for future trips.

We loved the location and the beach access was perfect for fishing and enjoying the captivating sunsets! The morning stargazing before sunrise was spectacular as well from the barstools on the back deck facing the ocean. Favorite moments were watching the monarch butterfly migration daily from the back patio area and watching the porpoises swim down the shoreline. The men saw sea turtles and sharks from their kayaks. Also, we enjoyed the screened in porch area during the heat of the day for relaxing! The home provides so many conveniences, seating areas, and warm touches. I especially enjoyed the “Turtle Room” and Tiki theme throughout the indoor and outdoor areas. I would highly recommend this home for couples or families!

Thank you for your incredible review. We're so glad you liked Tiki House and enjoyed your stay. Alligator Point is not for everyone, especially those looking for the more western panhandle destinations like Destin, Panama City Beach or even Mexico Beach and Cape San Blas areas. But for those that enjoy tranquility and the feeling that you have the beach all alone well...those, like you, are the most comfortable at Tiki house and Alligator Point. Allow us to host you again soon.

We had the absolutely best time here! The beach was so secluded and private. It was relaxing and a lot of fun with our pup. The outdoor patio was our favorite, it was perfect to read with our morning coffee and soak in the beach and nice for rainy days. We will definitely be back. Thank you to the Russ and Tamre who were so kind and helpful!

Tiki House was the perfect place for our family to truly experience Alligator Point and its beautiful scenery. The house was well equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. There were plenty of spaces for different views including the deck with Adirondack chairs below the house, the wrap around decks and porches upstairs and the wonderful screened in area with its own smart TV.The automatic roll-down screen was wonderful and helped bring in the cool breezes on hot days. We were amazed at the sunrise and sunset views from upstairs and down. The kids loved finding all the sea shells and sea glass. The utility room had lots of beach toys and buckets for them to use as well as many beach chairs and a very useful trolley to carry things back and forth to the beach each day.The downstairs outdoor shower with hot water was a huge plus.The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of extra blankets and towels.Having a smart TV in every bedroom was great, and we also loved having a half bath under the house.Russ was the perfect host and we can’t wait to come back!

Visited the Tiki House for a second time in three years. Loved the space the first time around, and it's even better this year! Updated flooring, a giant motorized retractable screen on the back deck, and fresh paint were among the updates we enjoyed this year. Owner communication was thoughtful, proactive and non-interruptive. Just what we were looking for on a beach getaway with the family. Thanks again for a great stay!

Thank you for your kind review. We work hard to provide a positive experience for all of our guests. Alligator Point is not for everyone, especially those looking for a PCB or Destin type destination. For those anticipating a slow paced and out of the way get away where you feel like you have the beach all to yourselves...AP and Tiki House are the perfect places. We truly hope you'll visit again soon.
