Hi Yolanda, No complaints and an amazing time? That sounds like a vacation win! We’re happy the home met your family’s expectations and that our team was there with quick support whenever you needed it.
Great property with a great location. Evolve team were very accommodating
Hi Floyd, Great location, great property, and a team ready to help along the way sounds like a winning combination. We’re glad our support helped make your stay comfortable and enjoyable!
Loved the location, beds were incredibly comfortable, lots of room. There were a few beach toys even which was nice.
A walkable location, plenty of room, and beds that made it easy to recharge sounds like a great vacation combination. We’re also happy the beach toys added a little extra fun to your time away!
Back in March, I had booked a place hosted by evolve through Capital One for a concert that would be held in early August. A month before the concert, I get an email stating that my reservation had been cancelled due to a double booking. This should have been communicated immediately in March, or at least in April. Not only that, but since I used my annual travel credit through Capital One, it will expire since the booking was cancelled so late. So basically I lost $300 that I won’t be getting back. On top of that, I paid $42 for the rest of the booking, which I have yet to see a refund for, when I was promised that I would receive it in 3-5 days. Don’t book with this company. The worst experience I’ve ever had with a host. I want my money back.
Hi Alex, We’re sorry for the frustration and inconvenience this cancellation caused. At the time of booking, the property was available for your travel dates. Unfortunately, we recently learned that it could no longer accommodate the reservation, and we apologize for the short notice. We understand your concerns regarding both the Capital One travel credit and the remaining $42 payment. Our team is currently investigating the payment details, and an agent will contact you directly with an update.
Wanted me to open an app so here is one more username and password to file. App was not worth it. And that's how my stay started. Booked the room because of location to surgery center I was having surgery done. Needed a place for my partner to stay that was close by. Food in the restaurant was good. Check in and out a breeze. I will not be back unless someone I know need surgery there. Already moved Bonvoy app to trash. Also for the cherry on top I have to sing in using another app to post my "experience"
Hi Gary, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad the property’s location was convenient for your needs and that check-in and checkout went smoothly. We’re sorry the app and login requirements created frustration at the beginning and end of your stay. Since your reservation may have been booked through Marriott, those requirements may have been associated with their booking and review platforms rather than Evolve, as we do not have a guest app. However, we understand how the additional steps affected your overall experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective. If there's anything we can help with at any point, please feel free to contact us directly either via telephone at 877-818-1014 or any of our social media channels.
Our host me is at the door and made sure we had everything that we needed
We're so happy to hear the host was attentive during your stay!
Went very well
We're glad to hear your stay went without a hitch!
The Evolve team was very communicative after I booked on Vrbo. Lots of timely reminders and quick to reply whenever I had a question.
Hi Sharon, Clear communication can make the entire travel experience feel easier. We’re glad our team kept you informed with timely reminders and was quick to answer your questions after you booked through Vrbo. Thank you for choosing Evolve!
Location was easy, home was clean and efficient and owner was extremely responsive and helpful
Clean, convenient, and backed by a responsive owner sounds like a winning combination for a Rangely fishing trip! We’re glad the home made your stay easy and comfortable.
Great location. Close to Zoo, Restaurants, Breweries, Distillaries, Hiking, and more! Comfortable and well equipped. Hot tub was perfect! Would recommend!
It sounds like this home put you right in the middle of everything, from the zoo and hiking trails to local restaurants, breweries, and distilleries. We’re glad the space was comfortable, well equipped, and gave you the perfect place to unwind in the hot tub after a full day of exploring. Thank you for the recommendation!
Too many request to sign up for giving information which air bnb has
Hi S. Davis, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We aim to make every guest experience as smooth and straightforward as possible, and we’re sorry the process felt more complicated than expected. Guests who book through Airbnb or another distribution channel are not required to create an Evolve account to access their check-in instructions. We also provide multiple resources throughout the booking process to help ensure those details are easy to find. That said, we attempted to locate your reservation using the information available from your username but were unable to identify the booking. We also reached out for additional details so we could look into your experience further. Should you still need assistance, please contact us through one of our social media channels or call 877-818-1014.
Hi Kaitlyn, We’re glad everything felt smooth and easy from start to finish. A simple booking process and a stress-free stay can make all the difference when it’s time to relax and enjoy your getaway. Thank you for choosing Evolve!
Personnel were very professional. We enjoyed our accommodations. The only drawback was the parking space.
Hi Norma, We’re pleased that you enjoyed the accommodations and received professional service throughout your stay. While the parking space was a drawback, we appreciate you sharing both the highlights and the area that could have been more convenient. Thank you for staying with us and we hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable visit.
What we really enjoyed about our stay was the fact that it was located on a motorless lake. It made for a more peaceful and calming vacation. Site was well stocked and clean. Featured plenty of "toys" to keep 3 generations busy
A peaceful motorless lake sounds like the perfect setting for a relaxing family getaway! We’re glad the clean, well-stocked property offered plenty of activities to keep all three generations entertained while still providing the calm atmosphere you were looking for.
It was very clean & comfortable. The view was immaculate. If I have another trip like this, I would definitely choose this property again! The only real issue I had with the property was that the bathtub had a slow drain all 3 nights. The rest was amazing.
Hi Heike, It’s great to hear that the property’s cleanliness, comfort, and beautiful view made your stay so enjoyable. We’re sorry the slow bathtub drain caused an inconvenience throughout your visit, and that feedback has been shared with our team so it can be addressed moving forward. Hopefully, we’ll have the chance to host you again for another great stay!
We loved the house. It was very clean and the view was amazing.
A spotless home and a view worth talking about? That’s our kind of stay! We’re so happy you loved the property and hope your next visit is just as memorable.
LIARS. First they claim they vet whoever books your place and will only accept bookings after checking up on the person booking your place to ensure they’ve only had good reviews from previous stays. That’s a lie. They immediately accepted these scumbags that rented my place that ended up nearly destroying it, and had several unauthorized animals in there that they let literally sh*t all over the floors. After they left I canceled the following booking due to having to clean and repair the place; I canceled the next guests due to stay there a week before they were due to check in. THEN I called 4 days before their check in date I’d canceled to confirm the cancellation and Evolve confirmed I’d indeed cancelled and LIED to me saying they called the guest to confirm cancellation. The day of the check in for the booking I cancelled, I get a call from the guest about a code to get into the house!! Evolve NEVER CANCELLED IT ON THEIR END, even though I contacted them twice about it, and never confirmed cancellation with the guest like they told me they did!! PLEASE learn from the hell I am going through with this nightmare of a company and STAY FAR AWAY FROM THEM. There is so much more I can write about the horrors I’ve endured with this company but writing about it causes huge anxiety to relive it.
Hi Brandi, Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. We understand that your experience with Evolve left you with serious concerns regarding guest screening, property damage, cancellations, and communication. Because you’re no longer an active owner with Evolve, we were unable to investigate your claims further. However, your comments have been shared with the appropriate teams for awareness and consideration as we continue working to improve the owner experience. We appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback. If there’s ever anything we can help with, please feel free to reach out.
Renters Beware….. pictures may look nice but the property we rented was nasty. And we ended up leaving after 9 hrs of our 5 day vacation. Evolve didn’t care to help us at all. They only care about the money obviously. I wasted $1000 bucks but now I know you NOT to use in the future. DO NOT RECOMMEND THESE PEOPLE.
Hello David and Annette, We’re sorry to hear the property did not meet your expectations. While your review raises concerns about the condition of the home, our records indicate the only concern reported during your stay was the temperature, and we did not receive supporting documentation for either concern. The listing accurately advertises one window A/C unit, and the owner worked to assist by providing the available fans, purchasing an additional fan, and reimbursing you $22.51 for that expense. Based on the information available and the owner’s documented efforts to help, we were unable to approve the requested refund. If you still require further assistance from our team at any time, please feel free to contact us via telephone at 877-818-1014 or any of our social media channels.
Absolutely, under no circumstances, should you trust this business or any of their rentals. We booked a rental several weeks in advance in Homer, Alaska, when we arrived at our rental after driving 7.5 hours, we opened the door with the code provided and walked in on a naked man who was already staying in our rental. They will double book you with other people and they will not make it right. We were left stranded without a place to stay at 11 PM and didn’t find somewhere until midnight because of this company. Then their customer service told me I went to the wrong property when I went to the property address they sent me with the code they sent me - and it even matched the photos of the place we rented (imagine that)! This company is a scam, don’t book them through Airbnb or anyone else.
Hi Abigail, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Guest satisfaction is at the core of what we do at Evolve, and we're truly sorry that your experience fell so far short of expectations. We understand how upsetting and stressful it must have been to arrive late at night after such a long drive and encounter this situation. After reviewing your reservation, we found that there were two separate listings at the same street address that looked very similar but did not include unit designations or other distinguishing information. We understand how confusing that would have been, especially given the similarities between the properties, and we sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience this caused. We've shared your feedback with the appropriate internal teams so we can continue improving our processes and help prevent situations like this in the future. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide a better experience in the future.
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE!! They canceled our reservation the day of because the condo did not get cleaned however we were not informed about this until we arrived at it, which took us 4 1/2 hours to get to. This property was beachfront and the only solution they offered us was almost double the cost that we had paid for a beachfront property and was around 10 miles inland. They basically said it wasn’t their problem and after talking to the local police department they said they have heard a lot of horror stories about this company around the topsail Beach area!!! We found another property that was available that was $150 more total than the cost we paid originally and took us 2 hours in 90 degree plus weather to find. This was still cheaper than the solution that evolve gave us and the solution that they gave us was very far inland and was not even beachfront. evolve should have offered to pay the difference which was $150, due to our inconvenience and canceling just a few hours before check-in.
Hi Ben, We appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns. Please know that at Evolve, we prioritize ensuring the best possible guest experience across all touchpoints, and we sincerely apologize if we did not meet that mark during your stay with us. Upon reviewing the details of your booking, we confirmed that our team had been in contact with the owner of this home, who let us know there was a calendar error and the dates were not available. We understand how frustrating and disappointing this must have been, especially after traveling several hours and expecting to arrive at a beachfront property. Once we were made aware of the issue, our team provided the available options within our network to help support relocation assistance. We also offered to process a reimbursement toward your next booking, but we did not receive a response to continue moving that option forward. We recognize that the alternatives provided did not match your original expectations, and we sincerely apologize for the disruption this caused. Your feedback has been shared internally so it can be used to help improve how situations like this are handled moving forward. If you still require further assistance from our team at any time, please feel free to contact us via telephone at 877-818-1014 or any of our social media channels.
