- Waterfront location w/ direct beach access & beach essentials provided
- Full kitchen, Wi-Fi, free parking & EV charger on-site

Perched on the hillside above Avalon, this Hamilton Cove Bay villa sets the Pacific directly in your sightline - a shifting panorama of bay and ocean that catches the morning light and holds it long into the afternoon. An electric golf cart waits at the door, ready to carry you through the island's quiet streets at whatever pace the day calls for. This is Catalina stripped of the rush.
 
The space
A private entrance opens into a well-considered one-bedroom villa, set up comfortably for up to four guests. The living area is relaxed and practical - a flat-screen TV and board games make for easy evenings, while ceiling and portable fans keep the air moving. Heating is available for cooler island nights.
 
Sleeping arrangements
The bedroom is fitted with two beds, made up with full bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets. Hangers, an iron, and all towels and toiletries are provided - arrive with a light bag and settle straight in.
 
Kitchen & dining
The full kitchen is stocked and ready for proper cooking. A refrigerator, freezer, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher, blender, toaster, and coffee maker with coffee provided cover every base. Cooking basics - pots, pans, oil, salt and pepper - are all on hand, along with wine glasses and barbecue utensils for the grill outside. Sit down at the dining table for a meal in, or take everything out to the patio.
 
Bathroom
One complete bathroom with hot water, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and a hair dryer - everything you need, nothing missing.
 
Outdoors & shared amenities
The shared patio opens onto bay views with a BBQ grill ready for use. Pool and hot tub access are included for guests - spend the afternoon drifting between a swim and the sun. When the beach calls, beach towels, an umbrella, a beach blanket, and snorkeling gear are all provided. Exercise equipment is available on-site for guests keeping up a routine.
 
Getting around
The included electric golf cart is the natural way to move through Avalon - unhurried, compact, and suited to the island's streets and waterfront paths. Free parking and an EV charger are on-site for guests arriving by car. The villa's waterfront location keeps direct beach access close throughout your stay.
 
Good to know
Exterior security cameras are positioned at the front door and on the patio facing the ocean. A smoke alarm, fire extinguisher, and first aid kit are on the property. There is no carbon monoxide detector. Wi-Fi is included. A washer and air conditioning are not available at this property.

    Beautiful Catalina villa - stunning ocean views. Golf cart was a novelty for us but works very well for the Catalina culture. Owner responsiveness as we had questions ensured a positive trip.

    The property is amazing, the view spectacular, But the thing most impressive was the work that the manager put in to make this a special stay. A lot of places are nice but the attention to detail that Rimas (manager) put in was first class. Thanks again Rimas for making the stay special. Cheers Henry

    Dislikes- No AC, didn't like large cleaning fee and had to clean our room ourselves according to the checkout rules.. and even tho my wife was feeling sick the cleaning lady wouldn't budge for a later check-out at 11am but still charged a large cleaning fee and we had to clean our own room under threat of charging a higher fee if she wasn't satisfied with how we cleaned ..we felt like we could't touch or move anything out of fear of being blamed for something and charged a high fee.. didn't like the LATE 4PM check-in/ or the early 10AM check-out.. didn't like that my in-laws couldn't come out to see our room because they weren't paying customers, not even to look or hang out for coffee ...make sure you read the rules before booking if you can't get a refund for cancellation.. LIKES- THE VIEW.. The wave wall texture was impressive.. property manager was great ...returned calls or texts in a timely manner or the next day..

    We returned to Catalina and Hamilton Cove after 15 years. The Villa was as we remembered it. It also has a major challenge as it is 76 steps up and 76 steps down. If you go in and out twice a day that is over 300 steps. This probably mentioned especially if you have difficulty with steps. The villa has multiple tv access but no instructions on how to use. Villa and Catalina were good memories, steps not so much.

    From the moment we arrived, it was obvious this villa resort operates on a completely different level. Every detail—every view, every moment—felt elevated, and genuinely luxurious. The villa itself was immaculate. Spacious, beautifully designed, and perfectly private, it felt less like a rental and more like our own personal paradise. Waking up to breathtaking views and ending the day with sunsets that looked straight out of a postcard never got old. The beds were insanely comfortable, and the outdoor space was peaceful, scenic, and made for pure relaxation. What truly sets this villa apart, though, was the service. The interactions with our booking agent were warm, attentive, and somehow always one step ahead. Every request was met with enthusiasm, not obligation. We felt taken care of. If you’re even considering booking here, stop thinking and just do it.

    The property is awesome. Beautiful ocean views with all the amenities of home. The included golf cart allows for unlimited travel to all of the restaurants and fun that Avalon offers. We also chose to stay in one night and enjoy a barbecue on the balcony watching boats cruise in and out of the harbor. Our kids slept in the sleeper sofa and reported it was crazy comfy, Rimas, our point of contact, was so helpful during our entire stay. He arranged (w small fee) to have the golf cart waiting for us after we got off the ferry in downtown, and also arranged for us to take the golf cart down to Avalon after checkout so we could get some breakfast and haul luggage to the boat, We also had a blast playing beach volleyball, jumping in ocean, pool and spa - all of which are visible from the balcony. Can’t wait to book again.

    We loved our stay at this condo, way better than the photos! Great location in a quiet community that still has quick access to the main town. The host is what really stood out to us as he coordinated experiences (beach setup), golf cart pickup/drop off at the harbor making it super easy to get to and from, and offered many local recommendations. The hosts quick communication made the entire experience enjoyable and smooth. 10/10 would recommend.

    The view was absolutely BEAUTIFUL for one. For two, checking in and out was a BREEZE. Have never been so lucky before. The thoughtfulness from the extra goodies, the check ins, recommendations, couldn’t have been better! The set up inside from the bathroom to the “laundry area”, into the bedroom was perfect (loved the pocket doors). The balcony was amazing and could hear the ocean even with the door shut (so peaceful). The furniture and extra blankets were super cozy and everything just made you feel at home (they even provided a brand new coffee creamer!). Cannot wait to go back and see more of the cute shops and more of the island, two days was just not enough at rima’s condo! Thank you!

    The view! The spa! The Hamilton Cove property is the best we have stayed at in many years of visiting Catalina. The manager was very helpful as we had some issues finding the unit and charging the cart. But in the end we figured it all out.

    This unit was just as described. Absolutely clean and beautiful. The unit is in a great location on property. It has everything you need. The pull out sofa was very comfortable as well. The unit is close to the pool and hot tub area and the beach. The beach area is rocky so I’d suggest water shoes. The golf cart is electric so no worrying about gas. The steps are for real as described. I’d suggest having the cab pick you up at the bottom (being dropped off up top as directed). Also the unit is in the middle of two others and there is very little to no privacy between the units. This is on most of the property so it isn’t unique to just this unit. Even if a neighbor was having a quiet outdoor conversation it would be right next to your window. Certainly not the fault of the unit but something to consider. We were there off season so it was very quiet. Would definitely stay again! Thank you!

    Hamilton Cove is a great place to stay. The view was perfect and it reminds you of an Italian seaside. The condo is well-equipped with everything you need even beach items. Getting information from the host was great, but my wife had Verizon which has connection once you are past the main area of Avalon. Everyone was nice from the gate guard to the other renters. Take heed that the property is 87 steps from the road, but well worth the time it took to get our luggage up for the magnificent view!

    Our family of 4 enjoyed out stay in this condo, but had no idea the 75+ stairs would be a daily issue. The owner is excellent and was super to work with for move in and he even happen to be there the day we arrived and helped us take our bags down the 100+ steps from the top. He dropped off the golf cart at the Catalina Express dock (extra charge) and it took the four of us with roller bags just fine back the 15 minute ride to the condo. They advertise LOTS of Stairs, this is a 10 story condo with no elevators, so it is over 100 steps down from the top and 75+ steps up from the bottom. If you have any issue with steps or physical fitness, this will be a challenge. It took us a few good days to get use to the daily hike and we thought many times before we left and what we bought in town, since it was all being carried up steps. Condo is fully remodeled, the building above the pool for the association. Condo is fully equipped with high end beds and furniture. Pull out couch is RH and very nice mattress. Get's great ocean breeze, awesome views and the patio/deck is very enjoyable. Coffee maker and Keurig was great and stocked with coffee. Even received a nice bottle of wine on arrival. The owner is great to communicate with on any issues. Lots of ocean and pool toys too. Golf cart was great for 4 and we used it daily. It really added to the trip. First time we have been in Avalon with a golf cart included. Highly recommend it, but stairs = 4 stars.
