Hamilton Cove ocean front luxury Villa Spectacular Views w/electric cart

Welcome to this hillside villa at Hamilton Cove Bay - a peaceful Avalon retreat with sweeping bay views, an included electric golf cart, and beach access for an effortless island escape.

- Sleeps 4 | 1 bedroom | 2 beds | 1 bath
- Pool & hot tub access | BBQ grill | shared patio w/ bay views
- Electric golf cart included for exploring Avalon
- Waterfront location w/ direct beach access & beach essentials provided
-Full kitchen, Wi-Fi, free parking & EV charger on-site
- Gym on-site

The bay at Hamilton Cove does something to you - the way it opens up from the hillside, wide and unhurried, with the Pacific light shifting across it through the day. This is Catalina at its quietest and most rewarding: a one-bedroom villa perched above Avalon, an electric golf cart waiting at the door, and a schedule that answers only to the tides.
 
The space
The villa has a private entrance and comfortably accommodates up to four guests. Inside, the living area is easy to settle into - a flat-screen TV, board games, and ceiling and portable fans keep things comfortable. When the evenings cool down off the water, heating is available to take the edge off.
 
Sleeping arrangements
The bedroom holds two beds, made up with full bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets. Hangers, an iron, and all towels and toiletries are provided - there's no need to overpack.
 
Kitchen & dining
The full kitchen is set up for proper cooking. A refrigerator, freezer, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher, blender, toaster, and coffee maker are all on hand - with coffee provided. Cooking basics, wine glasses, and barbecue utensils are stocked and ready. Sit down at the dining table inside, or take your meal out to the patio with the bay spread out in front of you.
 
Bathroom
One full bathroom with hot water, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower gel, and a hair dryer - fully stocked and nothing left out.
 
Outdoors & shared amenities
The shared patio opens onto sweeping bay views with a BBQ grill set up and ready to use. Pool and hot tub access are included for guests. When you head to the beach, the essentials are already packed for you: beach towels, an umbrella, a beach blanket, and snorkeling gear. A gym is also available on-site for guests keeping up a routine.
 
Getting around
The included electric golf cart is the right way to move around Avalon - relaxed, nimble, and in keeping with the island's pace. Free parking and an EV charger are on-site. The villa's waterfront position puts direct beach access within easy reach at any time.

Déjà vu Catalina

We returned to Catalina and Hamilton Cove after 15 years. The Villa was as we remembered it. It also has a major challenge as it is 76 steps up and 76 steps down. If you go in and out twice a day that is over 300 steps. This probably mentioned especially if you have difficulty with steps. The villa has multiple tv access but no instructions on how to use. Villa and Catalina were good memories, steps not so much.

Wonderful Stay!

From the moment we arrived, it was obvious this villa resort operates on a completely different level. Every detail—every view, every moment—felt elevated, and genuinely luxurious. The villa itself was immaculate. Spacious, beautifully designed, and perfectly private, it felt less like a rental and more like our own personal paradise. Waking up to breathtaking views and ending the day with sunsets that looked straight out of a postcard never got old. The beds were insanely comfortable, and the outdoor space was peaceful, scenic, and made for pure relaxation. What truly sets this villa apart, though, was the service. The interactions with our booking agent were warm, attentive, and somehow always one step ahead. Every request was met with enthusiasm, not obligation. We felt taken care of. If you’re even considering booking here, stop thinking and just do it.

Amazing Stay With Lots of Perks

We loved our stay at this condo, way better than the photos! Great location in a quiet community that still has quick access to the main town. The host is what really stood out to us as he coordinated experiences (beach setup), golf cart pickup/drop off at the harbor making it super easy to get to and from, and offered many local recommendations. The hosts quick communication made the entire experience enjoyable and smooth. 10/10 would recommend.

Breathtaking views. Quiet and peaceful island experience. An amazing and unique chance to experience a lavish lifestyle with all the amenities. The cart is absolutely necessary to enjoy this location. Recommend carting to Vons to bring back food to cook on the full kitchen or balcony bbq.

The view! The spa! The Hamilton Cove property is the best we have stayed at in many years of visiting Catalina. The manager was very helpful as we had some issues finding the unit and charging the cart. But in the end we figured it all out.
