My family and I stayed in unit 1/69. The condo was adequate for what we needed. There were two bedrooms and two bathrooms and the couch in the living room folded out into a bed. There were also laundry facilities. The view from the balcony was incredible. We woke up each morning to this view and drank our coffee out... more

We just returned from a two night stay at Hamilton Cove. There were three of us (myself, husband and mother in law). I rented unit 9-61 through the Hamilton Cove Rental Agency.

Just returned from another fabulous Hamilton Cove vacation. I wouldn't stay anyplace else on Catalina for a stay of 2 or more nights.

We have stayed at three different units at various buildings the past four years with our kids (now 5 and 6) so we are fairly familiar with the property. Lots of excellent reviews... more

This is the second summer that we have rented a condo (or villa as the sign states) at Hamilton Cove. Previously we have stayed in Avalon at one of the sub-par hotels. Without any hesitation, I would urge you to try a Hamilton Cove unit. Both times we booked through Catalina Island Vacation Rentals. They have a great web site... more

Just got back, like I said you can't beat the views. If you want to just relax and take in the beauty of the ocean and listen to the waves at night. This is a vacation for you. We stayed in 2-43, not bad with the stairs. No A/C just fans. They do need to update the patio furniture and... more
