Beautiful view of water. Great location. We really appreciated the Christmas decorations inside to make our stay more enjoyable.

We actually stayed in this house a few years ago and were pleasantly surprised with the upgrades they have made to the kitchen. New countertops, new paint, and new appliances gives it a fresh new look! Although the decor in the rest of the house is a little outdated (but who cares), it is clean, spacious, comfortable and perfect for a little getaway. We went over Christmas so the tree and decorations were a lovely touch! “Tis’ the SEAson” I would definitely stay here again!

No problems with check in. Vacasa sent many updates and all the info we needed. The house is very clean. Its three bedrooms...one large master downstairs and a half bath and two small bedrooms with Jack n Jill setup upstairs. Beds are comfortable. Kitchen is nice, but there are ants in the kitchen and in the outside kitchen area. The location of the house is nice...it's at the end of the canal and in quiet area. There is a house under construction next door but we barely heard the construction noise. We brought a boat and were expecting to use the slip, but there is a boat already there (we think its the owners). I texted the local manager asking if it could be moved-no response so we just tied up next to the dock. Tiki island is really nice residential place, quiet and clean. There are a few minor repairs needed to some cabinet doors, and the decor is old fashion homey, but who cares about decor when everything else is great. We enjoyed the house and do recommend it.

There aren't many places you can rent on Tiki Island but this one has become our favorite. I have stayed here many times over the years and have never been disappointed. The master bedroom/bathroom is certainly interesting but there is a TON of room and it is a great space. The living room and kitchen are all you need. The upstairs bedrooms are small but good enough and they share a nice bathroom. There is a huge deck outside and a boat slip and dock area to hang out and fish. There are some great fishing areas close by if you have a boat. We actually got to meet the owners and they are fantastic people. Highly recommend this house for families and fisherman.

House was in a great area/neighborhood and had an old school feel. Good dock to fish off of. A/C was not working upstairs and felt like a sauna for the entire stay. No water pressure in the showers. Toilets downstairs in master backed up. Roaches running through living room. Ants at our food in the kitchen on the first night.

I do not recommend this house to anyone with a boat, people who go barefoot inside the house, people with sensitivity to dust, or people expecting to grill.
The listing said there was a gas grill (shown in the pictures located in the garage). However, when we got there, there was no gas grill at all. The management company was informed, but we heard nothing back about it.
The listing also said there is a dock we could use for our boat. However, upon arrival, we found the boat lift was not functioning and the straps were raised so that we could not put our boat in the slip and had to tie up to the outside of the dock. We contacted the management company several times with both phone and text, but were never able to speak to anyone who could help us with this problem.
The black covering on the steps and upstairs deck discolors shoes, and everyone’s crocs ended up completely black on the bottom. Normally we use (non-marking) crocs on our boat, but because of the discoloration were unable to do so without leaving our boat filthy.
The floors inside the house needed to be mopped. Everyone was barefoot in the house, and within half an hour, all the soles of our feet were black.
The refrigerator smelled of fish.
There is a lot of breakables and picture frames on the tables and dressers throughout the house. This meant there wasn’t a lot of free space to put our belongings on, and lots of places for dust to collect.
The house in general is a darker than the photos on the listing lead you to believe. The master bedroom is very dark because the hurricane shutters are down and could not be raised.

Spacious and cozy home. The kitchen sink did not work but it didn't matter. We enjoyed the quiet community, the comfortable home and all the classic decor. Be careful walking on the 2nd level deck barefoot, your feet will turn black, BUT, it was soft and better than worrying about splinters from a wood deck. Thank you for your hospitality.
