Why Stay at Hamilton Cove?
If Avalon is the heart of our wedding weekend, then Hamilton Cove is its soul.
Tucked along the hillside just beyond Avalon, this gated seaside community feels like your own slice of paradise — peaceful, scenic, and only minutes from where we’ll tie the knot.
We’ll be staying there with much of our family & friends, and we’d love for you to join us nearby! Staying in Hamilton Cove makes everything about the weekend easier, cozier, and more memorable.
What Makes Hamilton Cove Special
It’s hard to describe until you see it, but every balcony faces the ocean, with views that stretch endlessly across the channel. You’ll wake up to the sound of waves and watch the sun dip into the Pacific from your patio.
But beyond the views, Hamilton Cove offers:
Private beach access with its own sandy shoreline and swimming area
Ocean-view pool, spa, and putting green for laid-back afternoons
Tennis courts and a small gym if you’re feeling active
A private pier that’s perfect for morning coffee or golden-hour photos
And yes… golf carts! Most condos include one so you can zip to Avalon, restaurants, or the venue in minutes.
