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...).

United StatesNothing.
Beautiful hotel and grounds with warm, friendly staff. We enjoyed having a bungalow with a separate bedroom and bathroom for the kids downstairs. We had lovely sightings of coati, white faced capuchin monkeys, aguti, and many birds. The pools are small but perfect for a quick midday dip with the kids. The restaurant had a great breakfast (included in our stay) and we also enjoyed dinner there some nights when we wanted to relax on the property. We stayed four nights and it was the perfect start to our Costa Rica adventure!

United StatesWe just checked-out of Koora, and we can’t wait to return. From the very first moment we arrived, we were transported to a place unlike one we had seen before. This was made even better with the friendly smiles of Marilyn and Jason who told us about the property while we sipped on a refreshing welcome drink. The vibe was always spa like, exuding total relaxation. Next, we walked the trail to our beautiful 2-story bungalow nestled in the vegetation. We opened the terrace door, and all we could hear was nature all around. Completely peaceful. We had breakfast (included), lunch and dinner at the on-site restaurant, Kire. The food was excellent, and the service exceptional each time. We even had a drink, and Damien makes a mean gin martini. One added plus to the hotel is the adjacent preserve where you can see sloths, a tapir and two impressive jaguars. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. The staff were available around the clock using WhatsApp to communicate with its guests. If you find yourself in Monteverde, treat yourself to the Koora experience.

IsraelGetting to the hotel is on an unpaved road like the entire area, two tiny pools. The road to the rooms can be challenging in the rain or for people with disabilities
stunningly beautiful hotel in Monte Verde, large and luxurious rooms, in the middle of the jungle, lots of animals around. Excellent restaurant, excellent location for those with a car, very good included breakfast according to the menu, very large and comfortable bed

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel part of the Koora family. ALL staff went above and beyond to make us feel special and welcomed. It’s the small things that count!! Knowing our names and including our names when talking to us. Everything is so professional, friendly and kind. They were on it!! The rooms were ultra clean and absolutely fabulous. Each room was its own paradise. I honestly can not rate this place high enough. Thank you all so much. Only staying here for two days has left such a positive impression on us. Monteverde is a must and this hotel is a must!!

United StatesRoad up to the property could be improved but not unlike many roads in Monteverde.
Beautiful property all round with a number of wildlife spottings. Staff are very accommodating and friendly. Breakfast was delicious with lots of options and dinner also amazing, gorgeous views from the restaurant. We had a spacious, well decorated, comfy room. Loved the plunge pool off our room- unfortunately this was too hot to go in one day but this was resolved shortly after informing staff.

United StatesWe absolutely LOVED everything about this hotel—especially the stunning Kira restaurant. From the moment we arrived, it felt magical. On our first night, we were upgraded to one of the tree houses, which was such a treat. For the rest of our stay, we moved to a room near the pool, and it was just as wonderful. Perched on top of a hill with breathtaking views, the whole place feels like a peaceful retreat. We loved walking along the charming little paths to get to the restaurant for breakfast, lunch, or dinner—it was all simply perfect. The food was fantastic, the staff incredibly friendly and helpful, and we spotted so much wildlife right on the property. We would come back in a heartbeat!

The staff is very pleasant and intelligent, a unique combination from our experience, the restaurant is excellent and we enjoyed breakfast and dinner. Breakfast portions are too big for us but very good, the best we had in Costa Rica. The view is spectacular. We would go back in a heart beat.

IndiaThe glass railing in the balcony is a bit flimsy and although there are warnings about not leaning on it etc, I think it is best that it's removed and replaced with something more sturdy and safe. Afterall everyone likes to lean on the railing and look out to the beautiful views
Location and the space is just amazing! Lovely staff and beautiful place. So beautifully located right next to the reserve and quiet
