3's a Charm 124

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Welcome to 3's a Charm, where the ocean, the sound, and this elegant beach home come together for you to make the memories of a lifetime. Located in historic Hatteras Village, 3's a Charm is mere steps away from both the pristine beaches of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore and the Pamlico Sound, creating one spectacular setting that ensures you and your guests will have the best of both worlds.

A long paved drive allows for plenty of parking with an additional two to three spots underneath the home. Here, you'll also find storage space for beach equipment, an outdoor shower, and access to the pool area. The house has an elevator that runs from the carport to the top level. A volleyball court in the backyard rests between the pool area and the sound. There are three levels of furnished decks, all of which offer magnificent views in all directions. The hot tub sits on the first-level deck overlooking the pool area.

3's a Charm hosts six primary bedrooms. Bedroom number one is on the first level with a TV and access to the first-level deck leading to the pool area. Across the hall is a movie room with a library of DVDs and plush, comfortable furniture. Next to that, you'll find a pub-style pool room with a wet bar, a sink, a full fridge, a TV, and sliding doors that lead to the deck.

The second level of the home contains four bedrooms. All of the rooms are spacious and carry their own individual beach flare. Rooms two and three have TVs and ocean views, and the next two have TVs and sliding doors that access the second-level deck.

Reaching the top level, you'll find a modern kitchen and living area full of sophistication. Imagine preparing breakfast as the sun rises over the ocean in front of you, only to turn around and make dinner with the sunset spanning the sound-side horizon. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, brand-new countertops, a four-person breakfast bar, and a ten-person dining room table. The final bedroom is just off the kitchen and has a jetted tub, a stand-up shower, and access to the sundeck. Panoramic views of the sunrises and sunsets truly put the cherry on top of 3's a Charm.

3's a Charm is unique in that it sits within a hundred yards of both the Atlantic Ocean and the Pamlico Sound. For vacationers, this provides the perfect dynamic of flexibility between sunbathing on the beach and watersports on the sound.

Wonderful vacation home.

The view of the ocean and the sound l we're incredible. The elevator was wonderful. It was very helpful getting our luggage etc up and down to the car. We had a guest with us that has very bad knees and it was great for him too for that reason. Thank you to the owners for a wonderful week!

3s A Charm

We loved the space, the amount of bathrooms, the pool and the jacuzzi. The view of both the bay and ocean side from the house was amazing. House was conveniently located in close proximity to stores and shops. The house is in dire need of updates all around though. It would have been 4 stars otherwise.

Return visit

Great return visit to 3s a charm. Great views of ocean and sound. Elevator is helpful though a little quirky. Good kitchen for cooking. Great hot tub. Pool table is a little rough. Rent a kayak and play in the sound!

Huge house and great location

First off the house was super clean, and we were welcome with a gift basket which was lovely. The location is amazing. Ocean on one side and the sound on the other. Even though neighbors are close and there was construction going on around us we couldn’t hear any of it. Fishing at the sound was fun but watch out for snakes. Having an elevator was great and it worked perfectly. Thanks for sharing your home.

The location and distance to the beach is great !

Great location!! Needs some TLC, We lost power the first night due to rain water getting into the rusted panel box. Exhaust fans for all the bathrooms on the 2nd and 3rd floor don't work. Lack of kitchen items. Place only has 5 forks. All the rooms were a decent size, however the beds! 2 of the 7 beds were comfortable the rest were extremely uncomfortable. listing says 2 queens but one is a full. Our group really wanted to love this house. Oh and the elevator never worked for us.

Property in Horrible Condition - Avoid!

Majority of windows have cracked seals; thus filled with moisture meaning you can't see out of them. Like checking into a jail cell for a week. Ice maker broken in fridge on main floor - solution is for you to walk down/up 2 flights of stairs to get ice! House so dirty made them come out and clean it (including picking up broken glass in the parking area).

Disappointing home, wonderful view

The view of the ocean and sound side and access to each was great! The house itself is well built and the layout is nice. However the kitchen was not well stocked with cookware and dishes were not stocked for up to 12 people. The stovetop had issues working. The bed mattresses and pool table are worn. The home was not cleaned like rentals we’ve had previous years. The Wii had no cords or controllers. The air conditioning stopped working midweek and was not repaired prior to our leaving.

The Location is GREAT….

The location for “3’s a Charm 124” is perfect! Steps to the beach and a short drive to restaurants and stores. However, there were some issues when we arrived and some continued through our stay. The front door knob kept falling off. It was “repaired” the day we arrived but it didn’t last long so we opted to lock the front door and use the stairs/elevator to enter/exit the home. Also, on the day we arrived the elevator was not working and had to be “reset”. Typically not an issue for us but the kitchen is on the top floor and we had all of our food items packed for the week. There were also items that were broken that I took photos of and sent you the guest relations number that texted me with the check in info. They were not timely and questioned why I was sending the photos. Other than that the home was comfy and enjoyable.

Great stay!!!

First trip to the Outer Banks & was looking for somewhere with a beautiful view -3’s a charm did not disappoint! The house had plenty of space for just the 3 of us. In addition to all bedrooms/ bathrooms there was common space including a 2nd tv and game room-the pool table has seen better days, but had a ping pong table top & another refrigerator tv-useful with a bigger crowd. Couldn’t figure out karaoke but WiFi worked. The windows do need some love but you can see out them&there was light in the rooms. From the deck listen to waves & watch kite surfers on the sound! Across the St is a large but manageable dune to climb to a long stretch of beach. The house was clean & comms w/ Vacasa mgt was great. Few questions no issues short 4 day stay -responses were timely & welcoming. One wobbly fan but the rest were fine& ac made it comfortable. The decor was tasteful. The pool (April not heated) needed a little debris cleaning but no matter the view of the Sound is beautiful Didnt use the jacuzzi. Kitchen well stocked & laundry made things easy. Lots of stairs elevator was tricky but useful for those w/mobility issues or lots of stuff. Great location! Hatteras village 5min drive Breakwater for sunset dinner, Frisco just 10 min other direction with beautiful art shop Blue Lagoon, Beads boutique & Tavern on 12.The only thing missing was a pen to write in the guest book but nice lady at Scotch Bonnet fudge (so good) gave me one which I left in the guest book for you.

Awesome location

The house is located a short walk from the beach, in the front and the sound view in the back. Awesome location. We did have an awesome time. CONS: The beds were not comfortable, and the elevator did not work when we arrived, we called and customer support really did not seem to be too concerned, they told us it was after 5 did we need someone to come an look. I told them yes, or send someone to carry my luggage 4 levels of stairs. The person they sent to look at the elevator came, and it worked 1 time after he left. I sent an email on Saturday and heard nothing and finally called back Sunday and they sent another guy out and he was outstanding! The elevator was throwing some type of code, 346, and he reset the system, and tested the elevator and let us know that it would not go to the ground level. So, I am sure it was a known fact that this elevator did not work as one might think. There is a locked door on the bottom level, with no way to access the elevator from there. It would work as long as you did not attempt to go to the ground level, so why wasn't this explained before booking the house? If you have a handicapped person with you and need a elevator this is not the house for you, because the elevator is non workable from the ground level. If you advertise a home with an elevator, for 4 floors, then it should work, that is why we selected this house.

Needs a Little Love

The positives - This property is in a great location - the sound backs right up to the house and the ocean is just across the street. There was a little grocery store just down the street and there were new sidewalks for running and walking the dog. The ferry to Ocracoke is about 10 minutes away and that was a wonderful day trip. This property uses Vacasa for their rental service. They were pretty easy to work with as far as check-in and responsive to any issues that came up. The negatives - The views were awesome but most of the key view windows are full of moisture so you really had to look to see out of them. The stove is an induction cooktop, but there were only 2 pots that were induction rated making cooking hard. The house was clean and the descriptions were pretty on point but the kitchen and bathrooms really need updating. The kitchen faucet sprayed everywhere when it was turned on. The dryer literally took hours to dry a load of beach towels. The water pressure was a big issue. The pool water was dirty and the water flow was not good. The pool maintenance folks came on Sunday afternoon to work on the pool, not because we called them but I guess routine? Anyway, after they came everything was in good working order. Honestly, for what I paid, I expected better. Not trying to be rude, but I read all of the reviews before booking and I wanted to add my 2 cents for what it's worth for other possible renters. I don't think I'd stay here again.

Awesome Location

Almost feels like you have a private beach. Ocean front and sound front… not many spots like it in the world. Common area/kitchen isn’t huge but the bedrooms are a nice size and each has its own bathroom. Cleaners did an amazing job and house was ready before check in time. Sunday arrival makes getting on and off the island easier. Had to call maintenance for an elevator issue and they came promptly. Check in and check out process was as easy as it gets.

Best house in OBX yet!

This house was absolutely perfect for 10 and a dog. It is sooo close to the beach you could throw a ball off the front porch and reach it. The view of the bay behind the property is gorgeous as well. The deck is incredible for watching the sunset. We had an issue with the elevator so i contacted vacasa and they sent someone out to repair it. The only thing I would really have liked was a full balcony on the front of the house to enjoy the beach but the back deck wraps around so you can still see the ocean off the sides of the house. There is also a nice porch off of the first level to sit on and watch the ocean. We loved the house and would deff rebook!
