Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

CanadaWe had planned that we would fill our morning with the horseriding, but unfortunately there was a horseriding camp ongoing that had not been listed on the website as far as we had seen, so this was unavailable and left us disappointed. So instead we tried to kayak on the river, but the inflatable devices were unsuitable for my 6'3 fiancé and the couples kayak flooded once we got on the water, so we swiftly abandoned. We waited for bikes to become available from other guests using, but then found they were gearless and quite challenging on the gradient or unpaved trails to the rope bridges, recommended by the activities guide. So despite us being mountain bikers at home, this activity wasn't as fun as it could have been if there were more basic bikes available. We did enjoy the pool, massage and birding activities instead though.
The room was much more spacious than photographed, nicely finished, and perfectly clean. Possibly the most comfortable bed of my life? Loved the Yoga mat provided in the room. The hammock on the patio was perfect for relaxing and listening to the bird song or watching the Koi pond. The fan above the hammock to keep the bugs away was an excellent idea! We also made use of the scope available to guests for birding in the garden. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed a couples massage in our room. The dinner was exceptional - beetroot pate appie + lamb chops + pork chop mains were divine. The grounds are beautifully kept and you feel like you're in a riverside jungle oasis ❤️

CanadaAs a couple we enjoyed everything. We would love to bring the family next time. They had more activities than we expected, -not sure if they had an area for ping pong/billiards/games/playground for evenings? Sadly, we were only there for 1 day.
The location, facilities & the staff were terrific! Sleeping Giant Resort is located right off beautiful Humming Bird Hwy, not that far from Belmopan, close to Herman's Cave & The Blue Hole. I believe the whole resort & development covers 500 acres, so it feels like you are in your own world! We loved the bikes, hiking trails, bridges, lookout tower, animals (poultry, peacocks, sheep, horses, bunnies, turtles, birds), river/tubing, outdoor wood-fire pizza dining area, restaurants, pools, gardens, sitting areas, large rooms, everything was bonus! We felt like celebrities lol, all the staff was amazing, friendly, kind, so helpful! The higher price justified the inclusions & amenities. We came during low season & stayed in Riverview room #5, so it was a great value. We loved everything about this place & can't wait to return! Thank you <3

AustraliaI wish they had like a lunch taco stand sort of thing where you could get a quick bite (they do have pizza but it’s kind of expensive). The restaurant was good but a slow experience, which can be totally fine but when your kids just want to get to the pool it would be nice for faster options. We were traveling with kids and it was spring break, but I could imagine travelers without children might find the amount of children a bit much.
In the river view suite 2, we had an infinity edge hot tub (really like a warm tub, so perfect for the kids) right on the balcony with amazing views. Parents were able to relax in the room while the kids played. Giant firefly’s, howler monkeys, birds, all the noises of the jungle. Gorgeous. Exceeded our expectations.

United StatesWe stayed at the Rainforest Lodge for three nights and it was incredible. There was so much to do and it was so relaxing at the same time. We used the bikes they had, kayaked in the river, enjoyed walking the grounds, climbed in the treehouse (the nest) and played in the pool. We travelled with two children and the place was magical for the kids and grownups alike.

United StatesLoved almost everything. Beautiful grounds, good restaurant, friendly helpful staff. If I had to mention one weakness, it would be the house keeping service. Maybe I expect too much but a $300 US, the room should look brand new every time you return to it. Ours was never full restocked and/or bed not completely made up. Other than that we really loved this place.

United StatesThe food at Humo was ok. Descriptions could have been better. What was described, wasn’t always what was served and we had to ask for the missing ingredients. The fish was very dry. Coffee maker didn’t get inspected before us arriving and was dirty and broken. Coffee cups were the size of cappuccino cups when there was only a coffee maker. Didn’t have enough creamer. One of the sliders wouldn’t shut so the bugs were coming in. Had to get maintenance to fix. Only two sets of silverware for a two bedroom. There were three of us, so one person could only use a spoon to eat our dinner when we ordered in.
Location was great. Staff was very nice. The cave tubing was fun, just a little overpriced. Staff was attentive as well. Beautiful grounds and accommodations. Interesting there was a kitchen, but not many places to shop for groceries. Beds were very comfortable.

United StatesThat I didn’t have more time to stay longer!
Having access to both properties in the Belize Collection was amazing. You are able to enjoy the Humo restaurant and the pool at the banks which is a short bike ride away. The bikes are complimentary and the best way to get to all the amenities including the rope bridges and lookouts. Any staff member you run into is eager to help and always has a smile on their face. If you do come to this Lodge, I recommend taking a full day to Explore the entire property. That’s an adventure in itself. If you are more into modern stays, then the banks is perfect for you. I would highly recommend this to anyone!
