Welcome to your Catalina Island escape - a hillside villa above Avalon's harbor with ocean views, a wrap-around balcony, and everything you need from day one.

- Sleeps 4 | 2 bedrooms | 2 beds | 1.5 baths
- Pool, hot tub & gym access included
- Wrap-around balcony w/ BBQ & ocean views
- EZGO 2Five vehicle + free parking on premises
- Viking kitchen & indoor fireplace
- Beach essentials provided (towels, umbrella, snorkel gear)

Catalina Island has a wayof resetting your pace the moment you step off the boat. This hillside villa above Avalon's harbor keeps that feeling going - ocean views stretching out from a wrap-around balcony, salt air drifting in through open windows, and the kind of quiet that only comes when you're genuinely removed from the mainland. Arrive, set your bags down, and let the island do the rest.
 
Living space
The open-concept living area is built around an indoor fireplace that earns its place when Catalina evenings cool and the pace of the day slows. Large windows pull in natural light from morning through dusk, and comfortable seating gives everyone room to spread out. A TV and Wifi are on hand when you want them, and a set of board games is tucked away for slower afternoons. A ceiling fan and heating system handle whatever the island weather decides to do.
 
Sleeping arrangements
The villa sleeps up to 4 guests across 2 bedrooms with 2 beds. Each room comes with clothing storage and the kind of hillside stillness that makes proper rest feel easy - whether you're here for a long weekend or a slower, open-ended stay.
 
Kitchen & dining
The kitchen is set up for guests who want to cook seriously. Viking appliances cover the essentials: refrigerator, freezer, oven, microwave, and dishwasher. A coffee maker, hot water kettle, toaster, blender, baking sheet, wine glasses, and a full set of dishes and silverware are all ready to go. Pull up a chair at the dining table, pour something cold, and take your time.
 
Outdoor living
The wrap-around balcony is where the villa earns its hillside position - ocean views in every direction, outdoor furniture for lingering, and a BBQ grill ready for an evening cookout with the harbor as your backdrop. Beach essentials are included so you can head straight to the water: beach towels, an umbrella, a beach blanket, and snorkeling gear, no detour to the shops required.
 
Bathrooms
The 1.5 bathrooms are stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower gel, and a hair dryer. Towels, bed sheets, and toilet paper are provided.
 
Amenities & access
Guests have access to a pool, hot tub, and gym during their stay. A private entrance keeps arrivals straightforward, and free parking on premises is included. An EZGO 2Five electric vehicle comes with the villa - your ready companion for getting around Avalon on your own schedule, at your own pace.
 
Safety & essentials
The villa is equipped with a smoke alarm, carbon monoxide alarm, fire extinguisher, and first aid kit. Two exterior security cameras are located on the property - one at the front door and one facing the patio toward the ocean, activated only if there is an issue. Hangers, an iron, and a dryer are also available.

    Beautiful view from every room at our condo. Town was close and easy to get to in the golf cart. Maintenance required at the condo. Numerous issues such as: no knobs for master bath, unable to use tub. Would still like to stay at Hamilton Cove for the view and location.

    This corner unit overlooking Catalina Island with a large balcony was amazing! Fun to get around in the golf cart that was provided. Floor plan was perfect for two couples. As rental property owners ourselves, we would have liked to see better maintenance and cleanliness of the unit. but overall, our stay was great.

    This is our second time staying at the villa. Last time was in 2019, this time we came in for New Year's Eve. The view is still incredible and the main attraction is the beautiful extended wrap around patio that was filled with plants and strategic lighting at night. While I know Catalina is tourist heavy, I didn't expect the island to be as busy at it was this time of year, and some businesses and restaurants were closed for the season, making the ones open pretty crowded, so for a few dinners we ate in and just enjoyed the patio and rental. The kitchen is pretty well equipped, except the pans; I suggest replacing them. The bedrooms were very comfortable and the main bedroom walks out onto the patio with its view. There is an electric golf cart (so much better than gas powered) to zip into town for fun and supplies. We enjoyed riding around on the scenic route and going to Buffalo Nickel for a Buffalo Milk cocktail, and some really great Mexican food. The miniature golf course in town was chill and lots of fun in a pretty setting. The owner Rimas was very helpful and communicative. I do recommend getting directions to the unit itself before you arrive since it can be confusing if you aren't familiar with Hamilton Cove.If you are visiting Catalina, this is the place to stay, especially if you want to get away at the end of the day.

    We stayed here for Christmas! The checkin was simple and very clear. Our host was very attentive and responded quickly even with the holiday. The location was outstanding very quiet and the condo was very well maintained, well furnished and it had beautiful views from every room. We will be renting this place agsin.

    We have been to Catalina many times and this has been by far the best place we have stayed on the island. Hamilton Cove is a beautiful little community and the condo is impeccable. Beautifully designed and very comfortable. They had all the accessories to really make the most out of the trip. Instructions and directions were clear and concise and made the check in process easy. The ability to use the golf cart included with the stay was a game changer! We loved being able to come and go at our leisure. Excellent stay. 100 percent recommend and we will be staying here again in the future.

    We had a great time our first stay in 2019 and this time as well. Unit is clean and comfy. Main bed is a dream to sleep on. Unit had all the conveniences we needed. Loved that there was a Amazon fire TV to use in each room. One thing to be aware of is that Cruise Ships make port here on Monday -Wednesday, so if crowds are not your thing plan your stay dates accordingly.

    There is a lot to love about this Hamilton Cove property. Being in the upper ocean side there is terrific privacy and no golf cart noise. However- there are also over 90 steps to the property. The kitchen has higher end appliances but not a lot of room to cook with others and the grill is old and not very functional and there are only 4 plates. No food storage containers or plastic bags provided. Not even a salt and pepper set or veg oil. The washer & dryer are great to have but there is still a sign on them not to use (drouth) and the dryer didn’t work properly. Host was very communicative but primary interest seemed to be offering services - not helpful suggestions or recommendations. The second bedroom has a full bed-not a queen as advertised. Security can outside master bedroom kept me from enjoying balcony at night. Beautiful place and setting (especially deck and living room) but for the price my expectations would be for accuracy of description and helpful amenities that made you feel at home.

    This property is perfect! The layout, and furniture was very comfortable. The location is the best you could ask for. The neighborhood is outstanding… we used the pool, putting course, and beach. We even saw deer everyday. The golf cart was convenient and fun to drive. It was so nice to have a quiet and relaxing break from the main part of the city. Dealing with the property manager was very easy. He responded quickly, and was extremely helpful with all aspects of our trip. I can’t say enough positive things about our 3 night on the property. We will definitely be back!

    The moment you walked in, you fall in love with the place. The views!!!! so amazing and the main bedroom is also a great surprise. I would have given this place 5 stars but found a dirty fork with all of the clean utensils and the towels were musty and smelled dirty.
