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: Stunning view!,comfortable bed…we did fine ,But if you have any issues with knees or your back I think it would be difficult to manage the many stairs

Public review: The view is spectacular! Loved hanging outside any time of day. Unfortunately, the inside did not match the outside. This condo needs deep cleaning from floor to ceiling! If you are allergic to dust or mold; this is not where you want to stay. Also the kitchen lacked basic cooking utensils. There is a “sleeper chair “ that would work for a young child. The description stated a sleeper sofa. The golf cart did not have working seatbelts in the front seat. I wish the inside would have matched the outside. Private feedback: The view was phenomenal. The condo did not have the amenities that were in the description. There wasn’t a sleeper sofa, just a chair that the cushions slid around on the floor and is made for a child. The kitchen was not well-stocked. I couldn’t find hot pads and the spatula was broken. I had to wipe down dishes before we used them. The dust and mold issues are bad. I am fortunate no one in my family has allergies. Also the seatbelts are broken in the golf cart. This was my first Airbnb experience. It is disappointing to anticipate something wonderful based on a description and pictures of furniture that isn’t in the condo. This could be a great experience if the condo was in better shape.
Response from Helmut

Hi Jessica, The love seat in the Den folds to a bed the size of 61 x 75 inches, that is wider than a queen size bed. I wish you had asked us how to fold it into a bed.
The cleaning crew would have removed any dust issue if you had pointed it out. Catalina has very hard water and there are mineral deposits from the water in the dishwasher, that is not mold. Thank you for staying.

Public review: We really enjoyed our stay. This place has beautiful ocean and beach views. We absolutely loved having access to our own golf cart, which made it so much fun to get around the city. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to travel to Catalina island. Private feedback: Thanks Helmut! We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was great!

Public review: This was our second stay at a property owned by Helmut, and our first time in the Big Blue. It’s absolutely beautiful. Being an end unit means much more privacy, and the extra space in the desk/work area made the condo feel much bigger. You cannot beat the view. As mentioned in the listing, you will need to be able to go up and down several flights of stairs with your luggage. We found the unit very clean, with all amenities working properly. We had no trouble checking in. Opening the front door can be a bit tricky if you’re unfamiliar with how it works. You do not use the handle to open the door, but rather simply turn the key and push open. The shower worked well and the water was quick to heat up. The bed was large and extremely comfortable. The cart is such a bonus, its value cannot be overstated. We found it a little tricky to get the cart key to turn in the ignition - however, Helmut was very responsive and helped us understand that you have to give the key a bit of a wiggle to turn the ignition. Once we had that figured out, we had no issue with the cart. I would advise that if you are not used to driving a cart, make sure you give yourself plenty of space if you need to execute a 3 point turn, especially on any slope. Catalina island is such a beautiful place with many things to do, and this unit complements the experience with gorgeous views and an atmosphere of luxury. I can’t imagine having a bad time here. We are already looking forward to our next stay. Private feedback: Thank you for hosting us a second time! We really appreciated your help with the golf cart - once we saw how to work the key, it was very easy. Everything else was great! We hope to stay with you again soon :)

Public review: We enjoyed staying in Hamilton Cove as it's so quiet and peaceful. The unit is lovely and clean. While a bit dated and could use some light maintenence updates (shower head) the unit is and lovely and functional. The bed was comfy and the barbecue worked perfect. We had some issues with the Golf Cart but Helmut was very comminicative and did everything to get the situation resolved. The Golf Cart is just used hard by renters Ibthink. Thanks for everything Helmut, we'll look forward to visiting again soon! Private feedback: The unit is a bit dated and could use some light maintenence like replacing the shower head.
