About this condo rental
Located in Avalon, this lovely condo for $550 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Below you will find details about our 2 bed/ 2 bath home, Hamilton Cove 11-52, located in Avalon on Catalina! Leave all the hustle and bustle behind and return to a slower pace of life, the island life. Our Hamilton Cove 11-52 condo is located in the exclusive, gated Hamilton Cove community. It's tucked away in a cove next to the main town of Avalon. You'll enjoy palm trees and an expansive view of the Pacific Ocean from the living space, bedroom and deck of our condo. At the horizon, you can see Los Angeles and in the foreground is a private beach. The community recreation center of Hamilton Cove has a pool, hot tub and fitness center for guests to use. The community also offers a playground, sand volleyball court, 18-hole putting green, tennis courts, croquet lawn, basketball hoop and picnic area for your enjoyment.

About 22 miles south-southwest of Los Angeles, Catalina Island is the southernmost island of California's Channel Islands. The Island is made up of two towns, the incorporated city of Avalon on the east end, and the unincorporated village Two Harbors on the west end. The island is just 22 miles long and 8 miles across. Outside of the two towns is a rugged wilderness of majestic beauty under the stewardship of the Catalina Island Conservancy.

There is no other place I would rather stay then Hamilton Cove. It's clean, private and feels like it's on little oasis. I love the peaceful atmosphere it provides and yet your just a short golf cart ride away from downtown Avalon.

This was so dreamy! So fun to use a golf cart like a car. Hiking in the hills and kayaking in the ocean gave us plenty of exercise to.we’ll be back!

Awesome location, with breath taking views. Only downside, was not stocked well with amenities (soap, cleaning products, etc). However, would definitely stay here again.

Update: Finally got a call from mgt. co. Promised a fix. I had to call twice. Still awaiting resolution. Sent to management company: I was impressed with your business until my friend & I walked into the door of the condo we rented for a large sum of $. Most upsetting were calls we made in order to remedy the issues only to be on hold for 15 minutes at a time and then sent to voicemail. We did receive a call back twice of the approximately 5 calls. Sent this prior to leaving the property on September 21st. Have received no response.
1. We arrived and there were no keys in the open lock box and no go golf cart.
2. We entered the open condo to find it had not been cleaned, linens had not been changed, towels were in the dryer, and there were no promised supplies.
3. We called your number and the cleaner's number and received no answer. The cleaner's voicemail was full.
4. After over an hour of waiting and close to dinner with no food because we had no way to drive into town, we were told that there was a mistake with our arrival date. Don't know whose fault that was and at this point do not care.
5. Cleaner arrived with keys and golf cart and 2 cleaners. She promised a bottle of our favorite wine which we never received. They stayed and cleaned while we went for groceries.
6. The condo has ants in both bathrooms and the kitchen. We used what little was left of the ant cleaner and threw away a lot of fruit.
7. The directions for the use of the TV's were totally wrong. Finally, Chela, the cleaner showed us how to use them, but still were not able to receive all TV services.
8. There were several bulbs burned out and they were not replaced while we were there despite making you aware and the cleaner.
7. The living room table was missing. We did find the top of it under one of the beds.
8. The lounge chairs on the balcony are stained on both sides.
9. One of the high-top chairs on the balcony is broken and dangerous with protruding metal.
10. Glass missing from the sconce on the balcony.
11. And then there's the grill. In an email sent to you, I included several pictures of the grill that was unusable. It was the most filthy, disgusting thing I've ever seen. Nevertheless, I attempted to clean it so that the burners would work. We had to light it with a lighter that was beside it and there were only flames from the 2 front little holes in the grill. No one could ever use this grill. I'd be happy to provide the pictures again.

The location of the property is awesome. Away from the center of town. Quiet. Scenic. And the property has incredible views. Right on the water. Fall asleep to the sound of crashing waves. But the property is not well maintained. One toilet didn’t work properly. None of the windows seemed to open or close properly. There was a major ant problem. We had to spray every day to try to control them. One of the bedrooms had no ceiling fan or portable fan and got uncomfortably warm at night (there is no air conditioning). The property lacks kitchen equipment and beach equipment and furniture as compared to other vacation rentals we’ve stayed at. Overall, it’s okay. We’d stay at the complex again but probably wouldn’t rent this unit again unless improvements are made.

This property was everything that was advertised. I have given 5 stars because I loved my time there. I must mention a couple of things in case you are a stickler. These things may bug you but I got past it. BBQ was broken, Coffee table was missing, there was a miscommunication about when to unit would be cleaned prior to us moving in. On the cleaning delay, I must say, the property manager bent over backwards to make it right. And, that's why I am giving 5 stars across the board.

Not as advertised
Property had lots of cleaning issues. BEWARE: information given says no AC but ceiling fans in both bedrooms and living room. Small guest room did not have ceiling fan, and window was broken so couldn't open. It was cracked about 1" open, but stayed that way because crank mechanism was broken. ALSO: NO cell reception in or around condo complex unless your cell plan is with Verizon wireless. Information given says there is a land line with free calls in the US, but there is not one currently in the unit. We had to take golf cart to Desconso Beach club to use their internet to let family know we arrived safely. Complex is VERY noisy - upstairs sounds are very loud in the unit; kids run around unattended until after 11:00 pm. Beds have very poor mattresses, so we took turns sleeping on the couch as it is very comfortable. Overall was very disappointed in property. The view is fantastic! But once inside the condo, other issues arise.

This was our first time to Catalina. We went for a few days during a trip to southern Cali to visit family. We were so glad we took the trip to the island. The location/property was perfect. We've stayed at many VRBO properties and this one was on the top of our list. You can't get much closer to the ocean than this. We hope to come back some day!
The master bedroom has doors that open to the balacony and ocean. It was so nice going to sleep and waking up with the sounds of the ocean.
We had a few little glitches during our stay - most of which were not the fault of the property or management. However they were helpful and responsive. That includes the housekeeper Chella, who saved the day! The prior travelers left the wrong key so we didn't have a key for the golf cart upon check in. Chella ran down to town to get us one in no time.
I will say - don't count on the grill. It is falling apart inside and either needs some new parts or needs to be replaced. I did talk to the management about this.
Thank you!

My two friends and I escaped to Catalina to take some time from very stressful jobs. We had a blast and the condo was great, clean and comfortable and the golf cart was a blast! The only thing I would point out is that the doors to the patio stuck and we’re hard to open but that may be due to the swelling of the wood. Otherwise, our stay was wonderful.

This was a beautiful property right on the ocean's edge on Catalina. The view from the deck was AMAZING. We spent long mornings and evenings out there watching seals and dolphins swim by. We also enjoyed the various boats coming and going, especially the fancy yachts!! It was great to have the golf cart to explore town and make it so easy to get around!! The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking breakfasts, and then we enjoyed the restaurants in town for other meals. We really had a great time and hope to return in the future!!
