Clear communication with the host. Beautiful home spacious enough to fit our family of five. We were on Catalina Island to celebrate a friend‘s wedding and it was a perfect getaway with quiet nights away from the hustle and bustle but close enough where we could take the golf carts down. Or we walked to the private beach within minutes down the road. We mostly took cabs to Catalina Country Club and Descanso Beach since we are a a family of 5 and it was around 20 so inexpensive option. Overall a 10/10 for the view alone but all the extras, open layout with all the essentials. We will be back!

You could not ask for a more beautiful place to stay while you’re on Catalina Island. The unit was beautiful. The view was absolutely amazing. The amenities, the little private beach with picnic tables and grills, pool, fitness room, it has everything you need. And to top it off the golf cart that took us into town for every event we signed up for made it so easy and fun. We will definitely try and get back there and this would be the place we would stay again. We loved it, thank you so much.

Beautiful Oceanview Property

This property is beautifully located across the cove, so you can see the ocean and property views. It was just enough space for our family of 6. We love having the golf cart included in the rental which makes it very convenient to get around town.

A bunch of stuff listed as amenities was not available, told I needed to bring my own croquet, tennis and mini golf equipment AFTER I arrived. Who travels with Croquet stuff? Don't list it if not available! ALSO we did not have working wifi. Could not watch TV or get on internet and I have 3 teens. Lastly the golf cart was bootleg and smelled really bad of gas. My kids got sick riding in it. We liked the view and location but don't promise stuff you don't have and maybe a refund for no internet? Especially since they threatened to fine us for every thing we did including stepping of balcony after 9pm.

A beautiful location

This location has gorgeous views! It was a comfortable stay, with all of the amenities we needed. The golf cart was a big plus! The fitted sheet wasn’t the correct size for the pull out sofa & a few towels needed updating, but that’s all about what was wrong. Everything else was satisfactory!

A Beautiful and Quiet Location

Our family of 5 spent two days here. The location is beautiful and the condo is splendid comfortable with a great view. The important thing is that you must use a golf cart to go about. It is quite away from the down town. The good thing is this condo comes with a golf cart.

Great View

The condo was clean and stocked with everything you’d expect. The view from the patio was incredible and the golf cart made it super easy to get into town. My only recommendation is bring a sleep mask since the shades are very thin letting a lot of light in

Very beautiful and clean property. Views are amazing. Golf cart is very convenient for getting back and forth to Avalon. Pool and tennis courts were great.My biggest issue is the confusion and disconnect between VRBO and Catalina Island Vacations (who apparently manages the property). I was supposed to sign a (lengthy) contract prior to our arrival but the emails were sent to my spam folder and not from VRBO. I eventually received a phone call and a voicemail stating they required the signed contract at least a day before arrival, and that several attempts to email me and text me were left unanswered. I had received no text messages, but checked my spam folder and signed the contract initialing the multitude of property rules. They then said they'd send me check-in instructions via text which never came. Some instructions came via the VRBO chat, but they were insufficient and confusing with what was stated in the VRBO description. The directions to the property on VRBO are flat-out incorrect and need to be corrected ASAP. It indicated a 10 minute walk from the ferry terminal, which actually takes you to the Catalina Island Vacations office (maybe? I didn't actually see an office). Probably would've known this if got the text. The office closes at 5pm and doesn't answer calls except for emergencies (and if it's not an emergency, you risk a 100 fine for calling after hours). A cab driver eventually told us you need to take a 30 cab to the property (not walkable at all).

Hamilton Cove Luxury

This Hamilton Cove property was beautiful! It was remodeled and felt like a brand new property from top to bottom. The views from the balcony were stunning. It was just up the hill from the heated pool/spa and just across the street from the 18 hole mini golf course. We were a family of 6 adults and 1 infant and there was plenty of room for everyone. The fold out couch in the living room was very comfortable and gave our group 3 great sleeping options. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything you will need for meal preps. The included gold cart was a must for Hamilton Cove as you are a 5-7 minute drive from downtown Avalon. The cart gave our group the ability to explore the island whenever we chose to. Hamilton Cove is beautifully maintained and you feel like you have been transported to the Italian Coast when you stand on your balcony overlooking the beautiful Pacific Ocean. The sunrise was amazing! The check in process was easy and seamless. When you exit the ferry cabs will be arriving to take you the quick trip up the hill to Hamilton Cove. Just gave our name at the front gate and were driven right to the door of our condo. We enjoyed everything about Catalina, especially our stay at Hamilton Cove.

Little details

The location is amazing!! However there so many little details that are overlooked. A quick list of things that would make it an A+ place instead of a B-/C+ place: • please provide pool towels if we have access to pool (we were told to use our bath towels) • perhaps some new towels that aren't threadbare and maybe some extras • the bath mats in master were either not clean or stained, clean/new ones would be lovely • the golf cart was beyond dirty and nearly impossible to see out of the windshield (if you advertise it at least clean it) • the "French doors" only has one that opens, and that breeze is needed • window arm in guest room is broken (appears to have been like that a while) • if ants are as bad as they seem to be maybe you should use a bug service prior to guests checking in (the chair and the chair my luggage was sitting on in master got invaded) • the kitchen was great with everything but we only had 2 towels (seems almost like cloth napkins) and th sponge at the sink was pretty gross, maybe a fresh sponge for new guests • maybe have the guests send their ID/cc prior to getting to the island since internet service at ferry dock is bad I know it seems like a lot of complaints but they are all little details that would have made a world of difference. We did really enjoy our visit to Catalina!!
