About this house rental
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!

This is our second time staying at this unit and it did not disappoint. Appreciate the ease of access and the golf cart available to use. Only a few minor repairs are needed to the unit and some of the towels/linens should be replaced due to stains. However, this in no way would deter me and my family from staying here again.

The location was amazing but the house was full of broken mirrors, broken and gummed together counter tops, patches in the wall left unpainted.
The windows didn't have screens so we left the windows open since it was so hot and we attached by miskitos.
4.0
We enjoyed our stay! The stairs are not really that bad and you are really close to the pool.
Could not get a hold of the host by message, so make sure you get any questions answered before.
Towels and beach towels are provided. Utensils and seems like they added plenty of wine glasses now. Would recommend
4.0
Definitely a great view! Your able to ride around town with the cart that comes with it. No Netflix, no good channels to do a movie night in December. Needs a deep clean. We found a mask under the bed and spider cobs around the home. Love how they have extra blankets everywhere. Will still come back :)
5.0
We really enjoyed our stay. Id say the only issue we had wqs how the shower curtins in both bathrooms would not reach the tub. Therefore every shower consisted of tons of water being sprayed all over the toilet and the floor. Made for a mess daily. The write ahould also include how many steps it takes to get to the unit. I imagine a heart patient would have serious trouble climbing so many steps.

Gorgeous private community with great view of the ocean. Great for either a romantic or whole family get away.

We have always enjoyed staying at Hailton cove, thank you for making our stay comfortable for our family. We want to mention the golf cart has some loose wires. We were stranded for a couple of hours in town with Chela, waiting for the mechanic, luckily my husband was able to figure it out but we still lost 2-hrs of adventure time so we wanted you to know.

I took my parents to Catalina for my father's 80th birthday. I decided to stay in Hamilton Cove because of the amenities; golf cart, 18 hole putting course, private cove. We had a great trip despite getting off to a rough start. I was filling out paperwork the day of our trip as I had not received it prior. I knew that the condos in Hamilton Cove had stairs but over 50 steps to get to our unit was a little much. We couldn't get into the unit because they use some weird lock there where you have to turn it one way then the other and hold it. There isn't cell reception in the cove so had to head up the hill to call and get the trick for the lock. The gate guard didn't have our information, so we had to wait until we were able to get ahold of our agent and get that all straightened out. But after all that was done, we really had a magical time. Catalina is a special place and Hamilton Cove is a very beautiful and quiet place to stay.
5.0
Awesome property with great views and close proximity to the pool and dock at Hamilton Cove. Golf cart for easy access to town. Will definitely stay again.
4.0
The place was great the views were beautiful great to be across from pool but we had a very difficult time opening the front door. We started to leave it slightly open. It took us 6 min to get in we started to get nervous because it was 8pm. Please do something about the lock at front door
5.0
This condo was clean and cozy. My wife really liked the decor and lay out of the condo. We also had a great view of the ocean. The golf cart that was provided was much needed to get to downtown and overall we really enjoyed our stay here. The only issue we had was with the front door and getting it open but we immediately contacted Chela and she helped us figure it out.
5.0
This is the third stay at Hamilton Cove for our family. This condo was perfect for four adults. Comfy beds, clean and absolutely beautiful views as are all at Hamilton Cove. There are quite a few steps to the condo, so you will get a little workout, but hey, you have your own golf cart so you save a lot of steps walking around town to get up the stairs :) Check in was great and they always take good care of us.

Had a great time! Will definitely stay in Hamilton Cove again when we come back

Only reason it’s 4 stars is, there was tons of coffee filters but no coffee. There were a few things broken in the home and on the golf cart. Also sauna wasn’t working In the community gym. Home was clean and plenty of towels.
But all and all it’s what I thought it would be. Manager was helpful and responded quickly.
**Be sure to read every detail on the community rules. **

Hamilton Cove is nice. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize the unit didn’t have A/C or Heat. Also, cell phone coverage is very limited and the internet doesn’t work. There wasn’t a washer/dryer. There was a huge crack in the counter top and several broken pictures.

Layout of this unit was not as nice as some of the others. Dining area was not set up for easy usage. Needed more kitchen tools and towels

Loved the property!!
FYI - we got a $475 golf cart parking ticket which we are appealing.

We did have an ongoing ant problem and multiple things needed attention. The location in proximity to the clubhouse was good. Property manager did respond in the beginning to fix a thing or two. Overall cleanliness was very much lacking
3.0
The property was not ready on time, but the host made it right. We had 6 (4 adults, 2 children), which seemed a stretch. 5 beach towels, 1 pillowcase for pull out double bed… little stuff. Awesome views in a great complex! Golf cart a huge plus. The space has a few areas in disrepair- needs a thorough cleaning/ painting to be as nice as we were hoping!

Catalina
Location was great. Over all a great stay, however things were broken in the unit. Mirror had a huge crack, the counter had a huge crack and the binoculars were broken. The master bathroom towels holder was broken With the shower curtain as well. We visit. Went we tried to rent things to use the area no one could help us located a place to pick up rental equipment. We visit Catalina every July and will not be renting this unit in the future.
It’s important to have kitchen items as everything was miss matched and not enough for a party of 6 :(

Fabulous Catalina Villa!
We loved our stay at this lovely 2 bedroom villa! It did take 49 steps to get there but manageable. The view of the ocean was breathtaking from the balcony & living room! The unit was very clean and comfortable. The gas golf cart for six was an added plus for exploring the island. My only suggestions would be to get some wine glasses as there was only one. Patio table was very wobbly & needs to be fixed. Otherwise, a wonderful place & we will return!

Great location just outside Avalon
Property had beautiful views. Golf cart to get around was great. Pool and hot tub are shared amenities. Kitchen needed more pots and pans. Catalina is so much fun!

Beautiful Views
The property was clean, easy to get to as soon as we step off of the Catalina Express se had 0 problems. Our time was phenomenal. The golf-cart ran perfectly fine. Kitchen was fully stocked for us to cook a meal the night we came in. Would definitely recommend!

We’ be back!
We had a great time here in January. The views are insane. The property was so quiet, super close to the heated pool and hot tub (pool towels in unit), free golf cart use was great, and Hamilton Cove is just slightly past Descanso beach Club so it’s really not far from town. I wish the golf cart had seat belts since we had a little one with us. The downstairs bed is suuuper squeaky. And we could have used another pan. All minor complaints for such a relaxing few days! We’ll be back!

Perfect!
Our stay was perfect! The cutest condo in a peaceful beautiful area. Would definitely recommend!

Loved the location
The location and property made you feel like you were staying on the hills of Greece. The golf cart made getting to and from town so convenient.

The Best Time!
The place was amazing with a great view and top-notch amenities. Beautiful property inside and out. The golf cart was great as well and seated up to six people. Definitely looking forward to coming back already.

Great place to relax
Place was a short 20 minute distance from the casino. Great view of the sea from the master room. Was a bit dusty and of course the ants, overall we enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

Comfortable Condo
We had a nice family vacation here. The golf cart ran nicely. The master bed (king size, I think) was very comfortable. Lots of space in the master bedroom. Nicely decorated. The kitchen had everything we needed including a blender, pots pans, etc. No wine glasses though. Also, remember to grab either plastic or cans when getting your groceries before heading to the condo. As with the other reviews, there were a few ants, not too bad. A few wear and tear items (mirror, banister, golf cart pedal, kitchen counter in one spot) like mentioned previously in reviews. And there are 55 steps, not bad for us, but something to consider if traveling with an injury. Otherwise, very nice and comfortable. The sofa was good for my children, with a pull out queen size mattress and Plenty of extra bedding. We enjoyed the pool and spa. Thank you for letting us rent the condo.

Great location, great amenities, not clean
The property itself is great. Having your own golf cart to move around the island is a plus. We are a family of 6. So 2 people will need to sleep on couch. No extra blankets provided. The closets inside the rental are filthy and smell. The extra comforters we found were dirty and had stains. We had to go to town and pay $40per blanket for a blanket for the 2 sleeping in couch. No lighter provided to turn on grill, had to go buy that as well. We tried to boil water and the pot was grimey. The coffee maker where you put water is rusted, didn’t want to get sick so I didn’t use it. This property says they are under new management however things in the condo need to be updated, like broken Mirrors and a broken latch to a window. Broken countertop by the sink. The door to the patio is also a tough one, hard to open, hard to close. No napkins provided in kitchen either. Luckily the pool was back open and our kids had fun there. Please note this place is quiet by 9pm! But before 7am you will hear noise outside from maintenance crews. Don’t expect to sleep in.
Hamilton Cove is supposed to be higher end and it’s not cheap. At least wash your comforters, and have clean working kitchen equipment, specially in the time we live now with corona virus. Cleanliness and sanitizing should be your priority.

Great place in Hamilton Cove
The unit is fantastic - it is perhaps nicer than the pictures suggest. Management was very responsive to our needs while we were there. We would book again.
My only suggestion would be:
There were a couple of small items (none of which are important or impacted our stay) that had some previous damage (ie a crack in a decorative mirror), that would be nice if they were preemptively disclosed at check-in, just so that we knew we wouldn't be held responsible (kind of like a rental car pre-inspection where the known dents are already marked).
A wonderful unit on a great island.
Thanks!

Beautiful property but for the price...
Hamilton Cove was beautiful , and our rental had a great view. However, for the price we paid per night we would have appreciated things like wine glasses ( at least one), soap for the washing machine ( we were asked to wash the towels before we left), not having to unload the dishwasher when we got there, and not having to handle the laundry left in the washer and the dryer. Additionally, the gas gauge in the golf cart did not work, so that left us on pin & needles the whole time. Lastly, there was hair on the bathroom floors from prior guests . All rather minor things , but for almost $1800 for just two nights we were expecting the best.

There are 4 things to recommend about this property. 1) Location of villa. Just the right amount of stairs to feel like you’re getting a little exercise without wearing yourself out. Parking is right at the base of the stairs making it more convenient for coming and going.2) Golf cart was in good condition and as a 6 seater has plenty of room for passengers and gear.3) View. Nice ocean views from the living room and master bedroom.4) Washer/Dryer located right outside the front door.On the other hand, the villa is in serious need of maintenance and sprucing. Many things are broken and need repair and/or replacement. A couple examples are the large mirror on the wall as you walk in has a large break, kitchen counter top has a significant crack by the sink, counter/top next to the stove does not line up, door leading to the patio does not close properly or lock. Table on patio has broken legs and can not be moved to accommodate seating on the very small patio.This villa could be an attractive and comfortable unit with some much needed attention to maintenance.Lastly, for guests staying several days (we stayed a week) the unit should come stocked with essentials (enough dishwasher soap, laundry soap, paper towels, tissue, TP, etc., for at least several days). Guests are asked to run the dishwasher and start a load of towels upon departure yet supplies are not offered. We purchased everything and left behind what was left over for the next guest.I hope this information is helpful and will encourage some much needed TLC for the villa.Thank you.

Great place to stay. Great views.
We really enjoyed this condo with the views and location. It was clean and quite. We did get our exercise walking up and down the hills within the association and the 52 steps it takes to get into the condo from the street. The pool is closed due to COVID but we checked out tennis rackets and croquet equipment from the guard gate to play on the community tennis court and croquet field. This is a great place to stay with a golf card that accommodates six people. The drives between the condo and downtown every morning and evening for meals was pleasant and takes about five minutes. We would not have stayed in Hamilton Cove if the condo did not come with a golf cart though. The walk up and down the hills to town would have been more exercise than we would have wanted.
