Honestly, NO. It is a long, DARK walk from El Zafiro to anywhere. Yes, it's a straight shot down the beach to Karakter, but after dark, there is absolutely nothing there and I wouldn't do it. It's roughly 1/4 mile between Beachside Villa and Karakter, and who knows who might hang out there after night??? You could walk to the other way to Sunset Bar and Grill, or Maho, before dark, but there are NO sidewalks and the road is pretty narrow and VERY dark. Best advice is you could walk to Karakter, Sunset Bar or Maho BEFORE dark, and get a cab back.
