The space
We are pleased to offer a Mediterranean style vacation villa on Catalina Island at the prestigious Hamilton Cove Luxury Resort. The villa is in the most desirable location: a true end unit, not sandwiched between other units, with nature to the north and only one neighboring unit to the south. You have ocean and nature views, and a fireplace for cozy evenings overlooking the ocean. Newly installed bamboo flooring adds an island touch of luxury, along with a designer couch that folds out into a very comfortable queen size bed and a designer leather chair with ottoman. The villa offers spacious, airy indoor-outdoor living, with three sets of double doors opening onto a gorgeous balcony with breathtaking views. Most one-bedroom units don’t have the extra office/den with its additional set of double doors.

The resort features 2 tennis courts, a pool, jacuzzi, sauna, gym, volleyball court and croquet court.

Please note: due to allergies we cannot accept pets or service animals in our home, thank you. Hamilton Cove HOA also does not allow any pets or animals to be brought to Hamilton Cove.

Other things to note
Some guests are not familiar with the type of door lock at the condo. To open the door, insert the key and turn it counterclockwise until the door opens. To enable the thumb handle, open the door and press the button on the side of the door, just below the latch. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Public review: We had a great stay and time at Helmut’s place! Location, location, location. The view from the balcony was beautiful and it wasn’t far from the downtown for shopping and restaurants. Only carts from the community are allowed on the premises so it’s very private and quiet, my parents really appreciated that. Helmut was so responsive and kind, would definitely come back to this same location. Private feedback: Thank you so much for hosting us and your flexibility in our checkout, we had a great time!

Public review: Great views, private, clean. Private feedback: Golf cart needs to be serviced. Had a very tough time going up small inclines. Sounded like it was going to fall apart. The curtains in the bedroom are falling apart. Had to find a way to keep them shut. Not sure if aware or not but the window by the fold out bed is broken. The lockbox is also broken. It would not latch. It was the same way when we arrived. It just fell open before we even entered the code.

Public review: Absolutely stunning view! If you are questioning to stay in Hamilton Cove - do it! It is truly special. We decided to store our bags at the pier when we arrived, strolled through town and had some lunch, then walked up the hill. It was very doable & save the taxi fare. Once we had the golf cart, we grabbed our bags. Condo is beautiful but a little dated. Could use some updating (for the price) but overall very comfortable. Would be quite hard to fit 2 additional people, but worked for my husband and I. Helmut was easy to connect with and accommodated us arriving a few hours early which was very appreciated. The golf cart gave us no issues, but might need an update soon as it’s getting a little old. All in all, a wonderful stay.

Public review: Great location and the views are unparalleled. Having the golf cart was very handy. There is a lot of stairs but if you take your time it’s not too bad. Very Mediterranean and the pool was amazing. Private feedback: Thank you so much! everything was perfect! Apologies for the late return of the cart… that’s the one thing we forgot. 😊

Public review: Overall, we enjoyed our stay but are unlikely to return for another visit. Pros - gorgeous view, golf cart availability is fantastic, pool and playground onsite for kids, good communication with host, comfortable bed. Cons - dirty and dated space, numerous stains on walls, dirty dishes, several broken windows, dark bedroom, Wi-Fi needed to be restarted several times a day (also note there is no cell service unless you have Verizon - not really a problem but good to know). I was hoping to post pics of the dirty walls and dishes but I guess these reviews don’t allow photos.
Response from Helmut

Why didn’t you send us any pictures of your complaint? There are no broken windows and complaining about the bedroom being dark is really not something up to us, not every room can have a 180 degree ocean view. We could have looked into wifi issues by calling the provider but you didn’t say anything , they have been doing some maintenance perhaps that affected your service . Again had you notified us then we could have looked into it.

Public review: Staying at the big Blue in Hamilton cove was tranquil and picture perfect. The apartment was clean and spacious. The use of the golf cart was a huge perk that enabled us to explore the scenic routes around Avalon.
