How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe pool and the garden are really beautiful
If you plan to stay here, book the superior rooms in the separate building from the main one. The rooms in the main building are old, small, smelly (humidity) with no soundproof walls or doors at all (you will be waken by the breakfast preparation and any noise in the building or in the garden). Breakfast is very limited

Verified reviewExceptional Stay at Capi’s Place! I stayed at Capi’s Place for 6 days while in San Andrés for a running competition, and it was the perfect place to relax and recharge. The hospitality was truly exceptional — Shaida gave 100% attention to every detail, her mother Mrs. Estella was incredibly kind, and the entire staff made me feel better than at home. Special thanks to Juanis, the cook, for her warmth and delicious meals! The property is spotlessly clean, surrounded by beautiful gardens, palm trees, and a refreshing pool — ideal for unwinding. It’s just 20 minutes walking from the main beach and town center, yet remains peaceful and quiet. I especially loved the spectacular sunsets, the ease of training and relaxing on-site, and the company of the friendly cats and dogs, who were lovely and never intrusive. They also helped me rent a golf cart and connected me with amazing local contacts that made my experience unforgettable. There’s a fully equipped kitchen and a great BBQ area, and the location near the airport made arriving and leaving very convenient. Nearby grocery stores and top delivery options made daily life easy and enjoyable. Honestly, I couldn’t have asked for more. I’ll definitely return to this beautiful place!

Verified reviewnice and quiet location outside of the center. the pool was great in the evenings to just relax and unwind. the A/C was cold and the wifi was fast.
the only thing we did not like is this location is a far walk from everything else. you could take a taxi but they all was 25,000 pesos. we loved the staff and how friendly they were. so if you are ok to pay few bucks to get back to the hotel then this is definatly a good value. its hard to say its something i didnt like because we both enjoyed the stay alot. being in a comfortable place with a pool defiantly is something we wanted. its just a bit far from centro with only a single store to walk to.

Verified reviewClean, simple, family run small hotel. Hotel set back from road so is quiet. Nice sized pool, and a private garden. Located across road from ocean. Unfortunately no swimming there due to rocky shore. Friendly helpful owners (Spanish speaking only.). Comfortable room and bed. A/C and fan worked well. Functional shower and toilet. Easy access into town by frequent bus service.

Verified reviewA charming little hotel/guesthouse, just a 20-minute walk from the airport. It's located on a coastal road, though there’s no beach directly in front. Our room was spacious and had two balconies—one with a large hammock, perfect for relaxing. The bathroom was also a very good size. Keep in mind that many properties on the island don’t have running hot water, and the tap water has a slightly salty taste. The room had both air conditioning and a fan, ensuring a comfortable stay. We stayed in the main house, which gave us access to a kitchen. Bottled water was available, and the staff were friendly. Breakfast was basic but sufficient. There’s no reception desk, so you’ll need to arrange your arrival time in advance unless you arrive around breakfast, when someone is always around. One of the highlights was the lovely little pool with a jacuzzi and a shaded table inside the water—a great spot to enjoy a drink. The main beach is a 20-minute walk away, and there are plenty of restaurants, shops, and small grocery stores nearby. I would definitely stay here again.

Verified reviewJorge was an excellent host. Couldn't do enough for us, including offering to make a very early pre-flight breakfast. Our room was in the main house and had views towards the sea. There was access to a communal kitchen and BBQ area. Lovely well designed pool and extensive colourful gardens. Handy for airport and town but quiet. Room and bathroom of a fair size.

Verified reviewThe location (close to everything but in a very calm place away from the noise). The local bus stops in front if the gate. We stayed in the back house, surrounded by a lush garden. Nice balcony with a view. Comfy bed. Drinking water available as well as a drawer in the community fridge (which was clean). Breakfast was basic but served with smiles.
Upon arrival, issue with the water so the shower was just a drip. Was fixed the next day although still no hot water (but then we had to live with the noise of the waterpump each time some guest in the houqe takes water). The room was clean but the shower had still some hair in it.. Aircon was leaking and could only be used at the end of our 2nd day (it was epiphany so we had to wait for the maintenance crew to come back to work). The pool is more like a big bath tub and was used for diving lessons (so we couldnt really use it). There was a kitchen downstairs with amenities but the nescafe pot was empty and remained so. In a tropical land, it s always sad to get served fake fruitjuice for breakfast..
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly regret that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations, and we would like to clarify a few points. Regarding the water issue, we understand how inconvenient it must have been. As soon as we were made aware of the problem, our team worked to fix it the following day. While hot water is not a standard feature in our location, we strive to maintain a steady and comfortable water supply. The water pump is essential to ensure this supply for all guests, though we understand that the noise can sometimes be noticeable, and we will look into ways to minimize any disturbance. Concerning cleanliness, we sincerely apologize for the oversight in the shower. This does not align with our cleaning standards, and we have addressed it with our housekeeping team to prevent such occurrences in the future. As for the air conditioning, we want to clarify that it was fully operational throughout your stay. The only issue reported was a minor leak, which was repaired the same day we were notified. We regret any misunderstanding about this and appreciate your patience. Regarding the pool, it is indeed used for diving lessons at certain times, as indicated in our information. However, we always try to accommodate guest access as much as possible. We’re sorry if this was not clearly communicated during your stay. In terms of breakfast, we understand the desire for fresh fruit juice, especially in a tropical destination. However, while the island is located in the tropics, it does not have a wide variety of locally grown fruits throughout the year. The few fruits that do grow here are seasonal, typically available during the start of the rainy season. Because of this, fresh juice options are limited, and we often have to rely on packaged juices. We appreciate your understanding. Lastly, regarding the coffee, we provide fresh coffee with breakfast each morning. The coffee maker in the common area is available for guests who prefer to prepare it themselves to their taste, which is why it may not always be pre-filled. We appreciate your feedback and will continue working to enhance our guest experience. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.

Verified reviewLocation was perfect- only 15 minute walk to Spratt Bight Beach and the airport but far enough from San Andrés to be quiet and peaceful. There was a variety of food at breakfast including fruit, eggs, cheese, ham, sandwiches, chicken in tortilla, cereals to name a few with unlimited quantities. Breakfasts were delicious. The room was bright, with many windows and a wonderful breeze coming into the room off the balcony. The balcony was a perfect place to sit and relax. The pool was clean and the temperature just right after a long walk or just to relax in. The staff were friendly and helpful. The owners were there to assist you, as needed, and were helpful and friendly.
The pillows!

Verified review- Located in a quiet green garden 5 minutes drive from the main city of San Andrés - The bus stop is just outside the property, but they can help you to organise a scooter rental - The room was pretty basic but very clean - Breakfast was very simple with one special item every day - We didn’t use the pool, but it was being cleaned every day in the morning - Price/value you get is really good
- The roosters in the neighbourhood starting their crow at dawn :) - Breakfast could have more options

Verified reviewWe had a great time, reception and service were exceptional, Jorge and his team were committed to providing us with the best possible experience. They were very kind, flexible, and supportive when it was needed. We spent a couple of evenings in the pool and loved it. The place was quiet and perfect for a pleasant rest at night, the sea view from the property was amazing. Also, the location was very convenient, about 20 minutes walking distance to the downtown and easy enough to get a taxi or a bus. We would not hesitate to stay again.
We liked everything and had a lovely time in the property. It was a good value overall.

Verified reviewThe beds are outstanding! Super comfy! There is hot water in the shower (almost but good enough for us). Breakfast was pretty decent, general atmosphere was good & very spacious grounds. They do have a pool.
Customer relations for sure. Several things but here's one example: We cut one day short to go back & enjoy the pool but it closed with out notice for maintenance. This put a damper on the plans for the day, we could have stayed out. I mentioned it would be nice to post a simple notice, to inform folks the day prior to "the guy in charge" & his response was," Nobody else on the island does that!" Ok then... Location was a quite a bit out of the way & not much around there so transport is needed to get anywhere. A bus passes by or you can rent something. Hope that helps!
We appreciate your detailed feedback and are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the overall atmosphere of our guesthouse. Your comments are valued as they help us continuously improve. We regret the experience with the pool and understand how it may have affected your plans. Sometimes, unforeseen events occur that do not allow us much leeway. However, we will consider your suggestion to provide advance notices for pool maintenance and work on it to avoid future inconveniences. Our location offers an exclusive atmosphere, providing the necessary tranquility to enjoy the surroundings amid nature. Just 2 km, the distance that separates us from the center, is ideal for being close to everything without being in the midst of the hustle and bustle. We appreciate your understanding and hope that, despite the inconveniences, you had a pleasant stay. If you ever decide to return, we would be delighted to welcome you again.
