HANDS DOWN BEST DEAL IN HAMILTON COVE

Under new management, this wonderful two-level villa offers spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean. Located in Hamilton Cove, this spacious town 2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom townhome will take your breath away. Professionally decorated and acquainted with the finest comforts of the modern world this home is perfect for a luxury island getaway. The stunning view of the California coast during the day is topped perhaps only by the looking at the lights of southern California at night while listening to the crashing waves below.
As you enter the villa you will be immediately struck by the patterned wood floors and lovely woodwork including the doors. Large windows allow for an amazing view of the ocean and open to provide an ocean breeze. The kitchen is a chef’s paradise by the sea. It includes marble counter tops, stainless steel appliances and every you need to prepare just about any meal. You can choose to eat inside or on the balcony overlooking the ocean. The balcony has a table, seating and a bar-b-que should you choose to grill outdoors. The main level also includes a bedroom suite and complete bathroom.
Walk down the stairs to find master suite with exquisite ocean views. The California King bed will bring you great comfort under the luxury bedding. Likewise, you will no doubt enjoy the waterfall shower in the gorgeous master bath as well as the fine linen. Moreover, the master suite includes a private balcony from which to take in the one of a kind views from the Hamilton Cove Villas.
We understand, however, that you are likely going to want to take in all that Catalina has to offer. The rental comes with a six-passenger golf cart you can use to get to town or the Descanso Beach Club. Feel free to take advantage of the Hamilton Cove amenities including the pool, spa, health club, tennis and croquet courts as well as an 18-hole putting green. Hamilton Cove also provides outdoor tables and bar-b-ques and even a sand volleyball court.
Unfortunately, when we switched management companies, VRBO does not show our old reviews. This is our last review from December.
It was cute and quaint. Nice and clean
5/5
We love Hamilton Cove. It was our second time staying here, we absolutely enjoy it there! We will always try and stay there when vacationing on the island!

Our stay at Hamilton Cove was absolutely stunning and far exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived on the island at 8 AM, our host Jenny went above and beyond to make our trip special. Even though check-in wasn’t until later, she let us drop off our luggage at the property and even gave us access to the golf cart while we waited. That thoughtful gesture made our first day so much more memorable.The property itself was amazing spotless, comfortable, and with views that are simply breathtaking (see attached pictures). Hamilton Cove is beautifully maintained, and being about a mile and a half from downtown Avalon made it the perfect balance of peaceful and convenient. In the mornings, we woke up to the sound of the ocean and birds, and the short ride into town on the golf cart was such a fun experience. Along the way, we even had deer come right up to us and eat from our hands such a magical memory.We can’t thank Jenny enough for being such a wonderful host and making everything so seamless. We are already excited to come back and stay at this incredible property again. Highly, highly recommend!

Hamilton Cove vacation

We had a wonderful time on Catalina!! Property was great (views, close to pool, fitness center etc). Very comfortable condo.The only problem we had was with the golf cart. Need better instructions. Had to have the brakes serviced while we were there. Downstairs toilet kept running. One of us fixed temporarily. Would stay again. Thank you.

Great place

The views are amazing, it almost feels like you're on the Mediterranean coast or something. Plan on getting a taxi when you arrive, the walk is doable, but you have walk up a pretty steep hill...don't waste time walking, the taxi ride was only 4.00 per person and very quick. Once you're there the golf cart makes it really easy to get around town. The place is really comfortable; decorated nicely and makes you feel at home. I would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful view

My family loved staying here. Beautiful condo and lots of activities right in the complex with tennis, putting, pool and beach all right there. The beds was incredibly comfortable. We had breakfast on the balcony every morning watching all the boats and parasailers. We also really enjoyed using the grill in the evenings. The kitchen needs some attention, it's time to replace the pots, pans, and knives. That being said, it was a fantastic place for a small family!

Catalina getaway

We made a long weekend out of our visit to Catalina Island and had a great time. The unit had beautiful views of the sunrise each morning and had a nice pool to relax around in the afternoons. The golf cart was a nice addition and worked great throughout our stay. The unit could use a few more kitchen utensils and pots/pans but we made do. Also, the main fridge was not working very well and it would have been nice to know this in advance but unfortunately nobody said anything about it until I questioned it the the second day.

Wonderful location!

Things we liked: Golf cart access, location on island, proximity to the pool/spa, views!!!, ease of check in, being able to take the golf cart at 1pm, views!!!, bbq, amenities in the common areas.Things to improve: More utensils, bowls, plates and glasses. Seemed like they were a mismash of random things. Fridge was broken but not communicated to us (there was a small fridge plugged in blocked walkway to kitchen). Only one key provided (clarified this with the management- they started to only provide one key because the other one kept accidentally being taken by people) The 2 middle seat Golf cart seatbelts were broken- no seatbelts in back row (sounded like management was not aware, offered to fix them during our stay but when we told them we were back and ready for repair, we heard nothing else from management for rest of trip despite multiple further inquiries).TV has just basic cable, no netflix capabilities. We were fine with the stairs but i heard alot of reviews talking about how they would of liked to have been warned that there were no elevators. No welcome book explaining procedures or giving advice for the island (only time ive rented a place on vrbo/air b n b that didn’t have one). No beach supplies, kids games, books/magazines what so ever- again- every place we’ve stayed at in the past has provided these. Overall tho, a GORGEOUS place to stay!

Great location. Be willing and able to do lots of stairs as it is on a hillside. Golf cart was a great addition. Property seemed to have been hurriedly cleaned and the fridge didn’t work. We were given a mini fridge instead which wasn’t great for groceries for our family of four. Overall we loved the location but unit could use updating and a deep cleaning.

Perfect for a getaway!

Had a fantastic experience! Photos truly represent the actual space. The included golf cart really made the decision that much easier. We were able to explore the island fully because of it. Accessing was very easy and when we needed some help with lock they were very responsive and stayed on the phone with us until the issue was resolved (user error). Great view of the ocean and the sound of the surf lulled us to sleep. It doesn’t state in the listing, but there is a washer/dryer right outside of the unit. I highly recommend and would definitely rent the SAME unit.

Dive crew accommodation

Generally good stay. Only two problems that should be noted. 1.)The gas tank in the golf cart was less than half full. We filled it for you though at the end of the trip. 2.) The main key for the front door of the accommodation does not work. The back up key works fine though.

Nice location, golf cart not as promised, some updates needed

Nice location, beautiful views but problems with the golf cart were told could drop our bags and pick up the golf cart before check in as stated in the listing. Multiple calls to management did not get the golf car till after 530 hours after check in because in for repairs? Lots of money spent on taxis. Linens and some furniture in needs of replacing. Somewhat disappointed.
