About this property

Bikinis and Bellinis Fantastic amenities, game rm, 4x4 required

Bellinis and Bikinis is a beautifully maintained 3rd row home with wonderful views of the ocean and a short walk to the 4x4 beach. A Four Wheel Drive Vehicle is Required- Delight in the experience of driving where there are no hard roads! Three night stays are available in spring and fall. The brand new state of the art kitchen makes meal prep a breeze! Outside you will find a gas or charcoal grill and a HUGE pool with plenty of lounging space. Relax in the hot tub before heading inside to the game room on level one. Here you will find a pool table, arcade game, streaming tv, darts, many other games and plenty of comfortable seating.

On level two there are four bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms (K, Q) have east deck access and private baths. A two twin room also has east deck access and shares a hallway bath with the two twin bunk sets room. The fourth bedroom is a Queen with private bath. Every room is as desirable as the last, so no worries about claiming a space, they are all superb.

Just off the Great Room on level three is a KING bedroom with private bath, deck access and SmarTV. The gorgeous views in the living room are enough to keep you entertained, but there is also a huge Smartv and a huge selection of movies! The new kitchen is a joy! You will want this kitchen in your house!! You'll want for nothing while making meals, and just in case you have trouble boiling water, there is safety on the sidelines of the large kitchen island. The rule at my house is that dishes will be done by the folks who don't cook... don't worry, even that will be a joy in this well planned kitchen!

Family Vacation

We loved our stay. We enjoyed the house, pool, and location to the beach. The property was exactly how described and was a great fit for our family of 14 people.

It is a great house and YES, 14 people can fit pretty nicely. The new pullout sofa in the game room is also a possibility for the lone teenager who doesn't want to sleep with the littles in the bunkroom ;-) So glad you enjoyed your week and hope to see you again!

The Screamin Mimi house is larger than it looks in that opening picture. With six bedrooms and two living rooms, the house is VERY comfortable for a large family. We also like that all of the kings/queens are masters with private baths. Thanks for staying and please come again soon!

Bikinis and Bellinis is dreamy isn't it? This home has undergone a serious transformation over the past year. The new owners made it their own with some beautiful decor. New kitchen is planned for 2024. We're so glad you liked your stay and are returning for the new kitchen. See you in 2024!!

Who would have thought that a laundry basket in each room would make an impact! That kitchen really does have EVERYTHING you could possibly think of!! The top chef contestant thought so too!! It's amazing how much the little details can add up to help with the perfect vacation! Thanks for all you did upon departure. We appreciate that kind of help! :-) Come back and visit again.

Perfect Family Vacation House

This house was perfect for our family vacation. Lots of space for the little ones to play, plenty of games the entire family family enjoyed, and a great basement area where the kids could hangout. Walking distance to the beach and saw 5+ horses around the house nearly everyday. Would highly recommend this house!

We reached out to Laura when her Bialetti espresso maker wouldn’t work on the induction stove top and she saved the week by dropping off a nespresso maker WITH pods within a few hours. I can’t imagine ANY other management company being so responsive! We really appreciate you!!The house itself is fabulous, up to date, kitchen has everything you could need, pack n plays, great beach games, we could go on and on.

Amazing family vacation

After almost three years of being apart, my family from all over met here to spend the week together and we had the best vacation. The Screamin’ Mimi was perfect for so many reasons - the first one being the quiet, peaceful location. Second, the pool and hot tub were awesome. Third, the house feels like a real home, not just a rental. There’s a great book walking you through the building of it and it was great to read. Finally, the grandkids call my mom Meme so it was the icing on the cake. Before we left, we were sure to book our return trip next year!
