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!!
