Take in the ocean views from the sunroom, living room, kitchen, and primary bedrooms. Enjoy the ocean breeze on the spacious deck, rocking in a rocking chair or soaking up the sun on a lounger. There are plenty of toys to make your beach visit easy breezy including boogie boards, beach cart, cooler, beach towels and chairs. Inside there’s an air hockey table, 75” flatscreen TV with a guest Netflix account, Wi-Fi, and plenty of seating to spread out. Comfortable seating for dining or working from the banquet dining table in the sunroom comes with an awesome view of the beach. Lil Salty is a charming and comfortable cottage for most guests and although our bathrooms are on the smaller side, both showers have a detachable shower head wand to make it more comfortable. Nearby, for your convenience is a King’s Beachware, Publix grocery store, and convenient restaurants including, Pepperoni Grill for pizza, pasta, and salads. Checkout Kai Joe’s taco stand, or for a cold sweet treat there’s Dole Whips at the park! Oak Island has a lot of amenities including putt-putt, a skateboard park, kids playground, movies and music in the park (seasonal), and so many delicious restaurants. My favorite is Shagger Jacks - their fried chicken sandwich and skinny fries with comeback sauce is a winner! The beaches at Oak Island are family friendly and welcoming to all! We only ask that you stay off the dunes and do not disturb the sea turtles in nesting season. Lil Salty loves all people and animals, but asks that you keep your four legged friends at home. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Netflix - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Streaming services ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Air hockey - Arcade/game room ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Contactless check-in available Minimum check-in age: 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM Contactless check-out available ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Rules After visiting the beach/sandy please rinse off before coming inside.

Apr 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute, basic place on beach We had a very short (2-night) stay. Place is cute, furniture was comfortable. 2 tiny bathrooms, to close door off main bedroom had to push down handle once door was pulled closed. Nice view of dunes and water, easy access to beach (not visible due to dunes). I have rented a lot of places. This place is quite small, so family or close friends would probably work. We could not find any wine glasses, but there was a coffee pot and filters. ##### Meg B. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suzanne L.

It was the perfect amount of space for us. We really wanted something on the beach so my mom could have an ocean view without having to go onto the beach, and this did that. The owner was so quick to communicate. And we even got early check-in, which was super helpful. If you are looking for a quick getaway, this place really does have all the amenities you need and is centrally located to everything. It was a perfect mini vacation! ##### Erin H.

We chose Oak Island due to other friends going there for fishing season. The Little Salty was perfect for us!! Easy access to the ocean and the deck allowed me sun time and reading without hassle of the sand. lol. I cooked all our meal’s except one and the kitchen had everything I needed to make that easy!!

The beds were very comfortable and clean. Lots of things to do. My son enjoyed learning to play Bocce on the beach with me from the set under the deck. He also spent plenty of time on the boogie boards provided. My family loved getting cozy on the spacious couch in front of the tv watching movies as the cool breeze blew through the back door directly off the beach. Everything we needed to have a great stay was here including a nice little cooler for my cold beverages on the back porch as I watched the waves roll in. We all would definitely come back again. Thanks! ##### Jason D.
