The condo itself was wonderful, very well-appointed (we had everything we needed to cook/eat in for a week once we went shopping) and our Evolve representative, Laura, did everything possible to make our vacation amazing! The view from the balcony is exactly as pictured, and 3 flights down is literally a walk onto the quiet part of the beach. The challenges: abundant seaweed (wear water shoes and ok). The resort itself - food did not look very appealing, and the DJ at the pool while fun for many, not our speed. Couldn't hear him much at the condo so that was good! Did get the massage on the beach available at the resort and that was wonderful! Go for the condo, not for the resort!
