Good to know

Take a dip in the heated pool or hot tub, bring on some friendly competition in the game room, cook & gather in the fully equipped kitchen, & unwind on the ocean-view porch as salty breezes & sunset colors set the mood! Breakfast, lunch & dinner can be prepared in the well-equipped, full kitchen complete or head out to the pool deck & fire up the gas grill to add a little spice to your home-cooked menu. Kick back and stream your favorite shows and movies in the top-floor living area, or shoot some pool in the lower-level rec. room. And right outside, you'll find a sundeck with plenty of seating, a pool, a hot tub, and even an outdoor Bluetooth speaker system to play your favorite music. This cottage also includes four comfortable bedrooms, three of which have King beds, the fourth being a kid-friendly trundle-bed room. The upstairs unit is separate from the downstairs unit (equipped with a wet bar, mini fridge, pool table, master bedroom with king bed, full bathroom, & access to the pool) & is not accessible by interior stairs. It is accessible by a private entrance on the ground floor & is great for some private sleeping arrangements within the group.

We had a great November weekend - the house was perfect for our group! We loved the hot tub (and would have loved the pool in the summer.) The game room was a favorite spot to hang out, and the bedrooms were all super comfortable and cozy. The location was perfect - easy to walk to the beach and convenient to restaurants. Stump might be our new favorite game, IYKYK. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Riki Tiki and would go back again!

This house was the perfect location and set up for our family. We had 5 adults, 2 toddlers and 1 baby in total. Location was close to a lot of great food places- High cotton BBQ, Duck donuts, I’ve got your crabs, Barrier Bagels, Jimmy’s seafood buffet and Henry’s restaurant. Parking was great for our two large SUVs. We swam every day in the heated pool and hot tub in late September. The house was a short walk to the beach. Everything in the home was clean and the beds were all very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a great time! Sammie was very friendly and responsive! Definitely recommend this house, right in the middle of OBX! Took us 5 minutes to get to anywhere we went!!

Excellent location and quiet street. House was exactly as described and worked well for our group of 6. We really enjoyed the second floor deck for games and hanging out! Great set up and we look forward to coming back soon!

We loved staying here. It was a good size for our family and very accommodating for small children. It was also nice to be so close to the beach. We would definitely stay here again!

stayed here with a group of friends for a week and had a wonderful experience. Sammie was incredibly responsive and set clear expectations, communicating well both before and during our stay. The house was spotless and stocked with just about every amenity you could need. The kitchen had plenty of utensils and cookware, the living areas had multiple TVs with cozy couches and blankets for chilly nights, and the pool, hot tub, grill, and games made it easy to relax and have fun. The pool was actually larger than we expected — the photos don’t quite capture its scale — and there were plenty of towels, floaties, and beach gear for everyone in our group. Finally, the location is excellent. The walk to the beach is very short, and despite being only a couple of blocks away, the neighborhood is quiet enough that you can hear the ocean at night. I’d highly recommend this property — it was a fantastic stay and a great value!

This was the perfect house for my group. We had plenty of space and the location was an easy walk to the beach, in addition to a wonderful outdoor space as well. We will definitely remember this as an option for when we come back to the OBX.

Stayed here for a girls trip and the place couldn't have been better! Sammie was super communicative, friendly, and helpful (especially with a potential hurricane brewing)! We loved the kitchen - it seriously had just about any item you could think of. You can tell Sammie takes pride in being such a great host! It's a home away from home!

Getting around while visiting our property is convenient. The house is situated on a quiet residential street which allows plenty of parking for you and your guests. Your parking will be in the double wide driveway located directly in front of the cottage. Additional parking if needed is available on the street. We encourage you to do the 2 minute walk to the beach and travel about town to visit the numerous piers, bars and restaurants, as well as your ride to the sound to catch the sunset that is a 5 minute drive away.
