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!!

We had a great time, we saw dolphins from the decks. The kids searched for crabs with flashlights. A lot of shell searching and even found a couple shark teeth. Thank you for allowing us to visit your sweet town.

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.

Excellent Location!
The Riki Tiki was perfect for our stay this winter. Being right on the beach is fantastic, plus you are very close to many restaurants and shops. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Communication from the rental company was very good. We'll definitely be back, hopefully in the summer!

Not for any kind of handicap person. House is very sloped and hard to walk on. I broke my ankle and had boot on. House was nice but older and it is starting to show its age. Awesome time being so close to water though.

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.

The perfect little beach house...
We read about this home, not giving it the best reviews. But it sits right on the beach!! Its been busy all year I am sure... does it need a little maintenance? Absolutely.... However, the location was perfect! Not too many steps. If I had to complain about one thing, it would have to be the bed (closest to full bath) needs a mattress topper. It was so hard & we like a hard mattress. We felt the house was clean, safe & will stay again...

Wonderful beach vacation!
My mother, husband and I had a wonderful stay at Riki Tiki! The location couldn't have been better for just relaxing on the beach. It was so nice to walk out on the deck in the morning and see the waves rolling in. The beach was our main entertainment, but my husband also did some fishing on the island. The house was nice and clean, with cute beachy decorations. We cooked most of our meals at the house, and there was plenty of cookware and appliances. Not a whole lot of storage space available for non-perishable food, but that wasn't a big issue. We would definitely stay here again!
