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...).

This hotel is completely utterly exceptional. We arrived to our stay to find ourselves with a free room upgrade- and what a room it was! It was something out of a movie- private pool and outdoor showers, incredibly comfortable beds. The staff are all exceptionally kind and helpful- they cannot do more for you. One member of staff in particular offered to give me a lift in to town to help me buy a phone charger. The food on site is excellent and affordable, the private beach is like something out of a movie. You are a 10 min cycle from the bustling town and several other beautiful beaches. I am a hotel designer and it is rare that I enjoy the look and feel of a property so thoroughly- I have no notes, this place is simply-stunning.

United KingdomLiked everything about it. Perhaps the picking up of towels off loungers when people have vacated them. Around the pool could be slicker as there are only six We removed them ourselves having waited a long time
The setting was just lovely. The jungle garden superb Our cottage very spacious and charming The beach bar and beach area very unique

United KingdomWe were moved halfway through our stay, after full payment was taken to a lower grade property. I said I was unhappy when advised of this, and they emailed to say they would discuss alternatives with the manager. No follow up was sent. No mention at check in and no contact made during the first half of the stay. I thought they understood I was unhappy to pack up half way my stay as I had packing for a 3 week holiday! We came back to find the key card didn’t work and no advice on moving and where too. Had to throw all clothes in bag that had been hanging and organised and was moved to a space without same organisation. I booked a two bed bungalow and received a 1 bed for the last few nights. The veranda wasn’t the same and the water cold. First half was blissful, second half was less so.

Excelent choice if you want an agreeable holiday to relax on the eastern side. The court- surrounded by animals and trees; staff with good vibes, heart-opened and well informed. Restaurant with tasty food. This was our best stay in Costa Rica !

United KingdomThere was very loud construction on the property when we stayed - you could not hear it from the beach, but it did make the pool virtually unusable during the day (the weather wasn’t great and the bar area was really the only nice area to sit, so it was quite an issue for us). We were a bit disappointed that the noise was not acknowledged and full price was charged (it’s an expensive hotel). The location is nice if you are looking for seclusion, but it’s a bit of a walk into town - not an issue for us but something to be aware of. The beach is not ideal for swimming, though nice to sit on when dry.
Lovely room, we enjoyed the outdoor shower a lot. Beautifully designed hotel. Very lovely bar and pool area (though see below) and the cocktails and food were excellent.

NetherlandsThe price-to-quality ratio was disappointing. Our room, at €350 per night, was directly next to a busy road, making it noisy day and night. The outdoor shower was a great touch, but the loud traffic ruined the atmosphere…. The manager’s claim that closing the doors makes it “completely silent” was far from true. Breakfast and lunch were overpriced and underwhelming. $8 for an espresso? Hard to justify.
The hotel has a beautiful design, with well-maintained gardens that add to the charm. While the beach area wasn’t quite our thing, it was still nice. Restaurant staff is amazing.

United StatesBeware if you rent any of the Pavlova suites... they back up directly to the main road so there's a few that can be pretty load with traffic during the day. However, during the night it dies down and gets really quiet.
Great location and very clean... beds were freakin amazing! Staff was super friendly and helpful as well.
