Lovely location. There is no air conditioner in the units and inadequate ceiling fans. Most evenings were hot and we couldn’t leave the doors open to let in ocean air because there aren’t any screens. The views are enchanting. Overall nice stay.

Everything was great. The only minor thing was the windshield on the golf cart, it’s hard to see out due to the “film” on it. It would be easier if you could lower the top portion and also get the wind flowing more. Again, a minor thing. The condo and view was fantastic.

This villa has excellent views of Hampton Cove!!! It is a gated entrance, which gives you a secluded feel, yet the golf cart is right there if you want to go into Avalon for restaurants and shopping. Perfect for a relaxing or romantic get away!

Exactly what we were looking for: a private, quiet, elegant villa just close enough to the city center to make it convenient to walk and just far away enough to feel at peace. The perfect space for a couple looking to get away in style.

Beautiful view, but several issues impacted our stayWe stayed during the off-peak winter season. The view was truly beautiful and the area was very quiet, but the condo had several issues that affected our comfort. There is no central heat, and we were not informed about space heaters (we found them on our own after the first freezing cold night). Cleanliness was also a concern on arrival, including hair in the bathroom, a urine odor near the toilet, and stained blankets with what looked like body fluids, making our first night especially cold. The management company did respond the next morning and sent cleaners, which we appreciated.Additional issues included mold in the washing machine seal, very poor-quality cookware (the food stuck when cooking and ever pan had stuck on food before we used it), a lukewarm hot tub, and confusion with the golf cart instructions. The second cart we were directed to filled with exhaust fumes when fully enclosed with the provided enclosure. We had to open it up to not breath all the exhaust which defeated its purpose.Important information not disclosed prior to booking was a strict 9:00 PM noise curfew, including no balcony use, with a 100 fine for violations.Positives: stunning view, quiet location, and helpful access to a golf cart.Overall, we would return to Catalina Island during peak season but would not book another property managed by this company.

The good The view is breathtaking and we really enjoyed the balcony. The meh: The tall outdoor chairs could have been more comfortable. The stove needs updating. The microwave is missing a panel in the inside. There were cobwebs in several places and at least 6 spiders. Not much use of the closet. About 1/4 at best. There are lots of stairs getting to the unit. The golf cart has definitely seen better days and it was hard to outrun the fumes.

Property itself was really nice. The view to the ocean is priceless. The ply thing I would change is having the property owners update the TVs, as well as the bedding. The tvs were only and bedding was not what I expecting was very worn.

Nice stay

This was our second time staying in Hamilton Cove. The best part about staying here is having a golf cart to use which makes it easier to get around and enjoy more activities. This property was reasonably clean but lacked upgraded items (stove/oven, dishwasher and toilet) probably from the 80's. The bedding, bath towels and kitchen towels were good but the unit could be more diligent to provide better items like new dish sponges or cloths (they only had 4 old scrub sponges so we had to use a dish towel as a dish cloth to hand wash dishes). Also items like quality paper towels, and 2-ply T.P. (the public bathrooms in Avalon had better quality). Otherwise, our stay was enjoyable and relaxing. We'll probably re-rent this unit but will spend an extra $10 to purchase better items for our next stay.

Lovely Respite

We have no complaints about the condo only that there is some maintenance that needs to be done on the golf cart. It backfires a lot. Headlights and the headlight needs to be adjusted because it’s not facing forward. Windshield needs to be replaced as well because it is very difficult to look out And see oncoming traffic. The dishwasher is very loud and at the end of the day it never really cleaned the dishes. Housekeeping issues nothing major except for the golf cart does need to have maintenance to be done. We shocked many people going down the road, including us. Also the windshield is a real hazard. We plan on coming back, and enjoyed our stay immensely.

Disappointment with local property management

Unfortunately, CVR, who is the island property management group. Their performance was very disappointing. Therefore, I had to rely on VRBO to take over. CIVR also shut the door of any communication because of my displeasure with how we were being treated. Communication was lack lesser to say the least by CIVR. They were very blunt by saying that I was to be conversing with VRBO over their participation by taking care of this property. When leaving the property, I was contacted by one of the cleaning people who asked if my husband and I were the new owners of this condo. We were a little bit confused because we were assuming it was the same owners. We were informed that the property had been sold and that there were new owners. We love staying at this condo, but would like to give a buyer beware to the owners of this property management for this condo that they probably need to reconsider using this local property management team.

A Letdown

My husband and I vacationed at Hamilton Cove properties several times in the ‘90s and had wonderful memories of those experiences. Fast forward to today, and suffice it to say, we were woefully let down. The management service texted us a code to access the lockbox to our unit. Unfortunately, they did not advise us that not all cellular carriers have connection in the Cove. Therefore, we had no way of communicating with the office. Fortunately for us, our daughter, who was staying with us, did have access. Next, there were no explicit directions on the location of our golf cart. We went up and down several flights of stairs looking for it. Upon calling the office, we were given the location of our cart. The cart itself was not exactly “state of the art” and backfired on one occasion and sputtered along in general. As to the condition of the condo; at first glance it appeared to be clean and tidy - until we went into the bathroom. The shower had a door once upon a time, in better times, I assume. Currently, the door has been removed and a shower curtain hangs in its place. Very tacky. But even more offensive, the toilet area reeked of urine, which intensified when the room was steamy after a shower. The unit was advertised to sleep 4, a pullout sofa bed being the accommodation to sleep two people. This was another debacle. In short, a good time was not had by all. 🙄
