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 included all of the elements we have looked for when selecting homes for our family each summer.  Simple 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.  Appreciate 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 enormous intelligent TV, as well as comfortable linens and window coverings to create a peaceful, dark relaxing sleeping area.  2 sizable 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, sizable 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 huge crowd simple.  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 huge 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 savor drinks 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 conveniently 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 .

Ocean Isle Beach rental booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve 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 whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Southport 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, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides have money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

Choosing the best rental in the Southport area:

• Start by selecting your trip dates and a maximum budget.
• New 5BR 5BTH Heated Pool and Tiki Bar has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the host before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is best for your vacation.
• If there's an individual Southport beach you are crazy about, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.

Tips to have a great stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
