Our family has been visiting Ocean Isle beach every summer for 30 years. It is really a special place, with striking beaches, eateries options fit for families and foodies, a exceptional park and spray pad for the kids, daily fun events planned by the town for families (including concerts, movie events, scavenger hunts), fishing and water sports abound, a museum, and very close to Myrtle Beach for many other fun options. Don’t miss sunset slush and a family put-put outing (our kids favorite things!). Cheeky Tiki is designed and constructed for multi-generational use in mind, brand new for the 2023 summer season. We wanted to create an ocean getaway that supplied all of the elements we have looked for when selecting homes for our family each summer. Painless ocean access is vital for a calming day at the beach. We are diagonally across from Winnabow beach access. One of the least busy and widest stretches of Ocean Isle beach. Easily walk back for bathroom and lunch breaks or to grab a cool drink. It is impossible not to be casual while sitting on our multiple immense deck areas with tons of shade and ocean vistas from every direction. Savor lunch alfresco while taking in the gorgeous vistas.
Our home was created with comfort and fun in mind. Each bedroom has a dedicated bathroom for privacy, a huge intelligent TV, as well as comfortable linens and window coverings to create a peaceful, dark relaxing sleeping area. 2 huge living rooms are available so you can separate your more animated home guest in one fun space (complete with 2 arcade games each with over 500 games, shuffle board, wet bar, enormous intelligent tv and board/card games) while keeping the other space for a more relaxing adult environment (complete with tons of cozy seating, huge intelligent tv and electric fireplace).
We have designed our kitchen to make cooking for a sizable crowd painless. You will find double full size fridges/freezers to hold enough food and drinks for a crowd, plus double ice makers! Plenty of storage space for food in our walk in pantry. All the cooking silverware you need to make delicious meals for your family of up to 18. Our dining table sits 12 people comfortably and our bar area seats an additional 6 (with barstools with backs so you actually can put the kids in your group at the bar).
We want your time at Cheeky Tiki spent making memories you will never forget. And hope you will visit us again! We will provide recommendations for activities and eateries during your stay. We are always accessible for questions or issues that may arise . A sizable heated pool surrounded with seating can be appreciated by everybody. Also you will find a tiki bar with wet sink, bar stools and intelligent TV. It’s a ideal place to use our margarita maker to appreciate beverages by the pool. Also on the first floor is a comfortable outdoor covered seating area, a gas grille, outdoor shower, and covered hot tub. You will find in our secured locked first floor area outdoor games, pool floats, pool toys, and a wagon if needed to carry things over the beach.
As a family with young kids, we know what is important to parents when traveling with kids. Safety is important to us. All wet areas (pool and hot tub) are behind gates that are not effortlessly opened by kids. Our elevator is up to code and inspected for safety with kids in mind (Although we require all elevator use with adults only and elevators can be locked to prohibit kids from playing). We have infant gates available if needed. We provide a pack n play as well as a folding crib (but bring your own sheets please). 2 high chairs as well as kid friendly dishes/silverware/cups supplied. You will also find games and some toys for those occasional rainy days. Good sleep is a necessity to really make your visit a vacation and not just a trip. The bunk room has been set up to provide a good nights sleep for a crowd of kids if needed. (4 full size beds as well as 2 twin trundles). This area also includes a nugget couch and other fort building supplies for hours of fun. Our kids most favorite summer activity is the week at the beach with their cousins. We want to provide that fun week for all the kids visiting Cheeky Tiki! In one of our master bedrooms, we have created a comfortable sleep space for a infant. The walk in closet is large enough to hold a pack n play or folding crib. It has a dedicated air vent as well as plugs for a monitor or sound machine if needed. No creeping around a dark room with a sleeping infant!
We want your time at Cheeky Tiki spent making memories you will never forget. And hope you will visit us again! We will provide recommendations for activities and eateries during your stay. We are always accessible for questions or issues that may arise .

Tips and Tricks to get the best vacation property experience:

When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental & When to go:

• Summertime is high season in the Carolina Beach area. To get the largest vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Carolina Beach attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

• Start by having your group choose date ranges and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Cheeky Tiki, New Build at Beach Access with Stunning Views + Heated Pool + Tiki Bar + Hot Tub + Game has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always available online. Otherwise, contact the property management company before reserving your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.

Advice for a great stay:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Contact the property manager right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peaceful home life. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
