Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

ItalyBe aware, Irotama lago is a one tower hotel, but it shares all the facilities: pools, restaurants and beach with 4 hotels of the same brand. This makes the place very busy.
Nice tower, good size room, clean place.

IrelandLimited food at the buffet at night time but we have always other restaurants to choose from so we were ok. English language was a bit of barrier for all the staff members so it was very hard to join the daily activities.
Everything was nearly 100%, the staff members from reception, cleaners bar members and entertainment were very friendly, the food was limited but nice, really nice private location, rooms were super clean and spacious. Amazing views.

The breakfast was nice, the fun spaces are quite nice. We really enjoyed the time in Irotama. The only uncomfortable condition was the presence of mosquitoes which avoid as to stay in some areas of the hotel.

AustraliaThe Irotama Lago hotel is perfect for families with kids (main pool with slide, kids club but must be accompanied by parent) and provides access to all their properties within the same vicinity. Beach in front of the hotel is not private but the hotel has plenty of security around. Quality of the breakfast & options are ample and include a lot of local Caribeño plus continental food options. There are 13 restaurants, we tried two for a la carte dinners and they were just ok. There’s a small shopping nearby Zazue with a variety of shops like a Carulla, casual dining, beach wear, etc. Overall a great stay.

ColombiaIt's not a 10 because we ordered robalo, and the fish was bad, but the breakfast was delicious. The arepa was really, really good, and so were the caramañolas with cheese.
We had a great time with the kids; it's very family-friendly. The pool is spectacular, with the perfect water temperature, and the slide is amazing. My two-year-old was thrilled to play there over and over again. Although the kids' pool is small, it’s ideal for his age. The beach has loungers to relax on and shaded areas with chairs. Plus, the security was watching our belongings while we were in the sea.

United KingdomThe service at the restaurants can be slow at times. The size of the bungalows varies and this should be made clear when making the booking . The accommodation in the larger bungalows and bohios doesn't seem to be offered through booking.com - it would be great if in future this type of accommodation at the resort is also offered when choosing the room online.
The unique atmosphere and set up of the resort amongst extraordinary vegetation.
