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 staff was great and they even drove me to the bus station on the day of my departure, amazing! The pool is very nice after a day of hiking in the national park, you are surrounded by nature and might even see an iguana or coatis running around.
It is slightly outside of the centre of Cahuita, which is perfectly fine (and even better) if you have a car but if you’re like me and doesn’t have a car, you might want to rent a bike tomorrow get around.

Verified reviewLovely cabin in the jungle with a terrace to watch the monkeys and agouti. All very comfortable, large room with own fridge. Great to have shared kitchen facilities and, of course a swimming pool!

Verified reviewA peaceful stay with beautiful grounds and a pristine pool. Spacious, comfortable rooms with clean bathrooms, though no AC—just two fans per room. If you struggle with heat, consider other options. No breakfast provided, but Brigette’s next door offers a basic option. A 15-minute walk to town and the main track.
Our room (the end cabina) had a strong smell that the manager didn’t notice, but keeping the fans on made it bearable. We chose to stay rather than search for another place.

Verified reviewSuch a beautiful spot! Sadly we were only there for one night, passing through, but it was really lovely. Big room, comfy beds with mosquito nets, good shower. You really feel like you're in the jungle. I saw two toucans in the morning, which was a definite bucket list animal for me. Really near the playa negra which is a beautiful beach. It's a little walk from the town - but we were transferred each way. Would definitely return!!
No complaints!

Verified reviewThe cabins were great, very clean and the pool was a nice touch. They cleaned it every day and changed the sheets every second day. When we were leaving, we asked for taxi to get to the bus station and we were pleasantly surprised that it was covered by the property :) Lived the jungle feeling - saw few animals There is a shared kitchen you can cook in - had everything you need
The location was a little bit far from the town center (15-20 min walk) but there were two or 3 cafes near by.

Verified reviewI spent about 2 weeks in Costa Rica and this was our favorite place amongst the 5 we stayed at. We ate the bananas from the trees that were on the grounds, saw a toucan while sitting at the pool. The Howler monkies woke us up a tad earlier in the mornings than I would have liked but a fun experience. Also saw two varieties of the small dart frogs while walking around the property.
A tad hot at night without air-conditioning but a lovely place.
