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):
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.
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.).

AustraliaThere is construction happening next door so best to be off the property during the day. And yes, the toilet does require sitting down almost ‘side saddle’.
Great access to the beach. Beach chairs and boogie boards available FOC. Comfortable room. Owners provide comprehensive information and local knowledge about a variety of activities and local restaurants.

United StatesI was misled by the listing and thought I was paying for a private kitchen. This wasn't the case, but the shared kitchen was well stocked and there are only three rooms sharing the kitchen so I never had an issue with others using it when I needed to.
Each room has a patio with a hammock, sofa, and a few tables. I loved spending time in my hammock, reading and listening to birds in the trees nearby.

CyprusFor me a small working table would have been handy, but for surfers- beach holiday people nothing missing I guess.
Exceptionally good communication, very warm and welcoming, detailed info about the village and the property sent in advance. The house is not impressive at the first glance, but as you stay there you realize that everything is clean and works. Well equipped shared kitchen. Small terrace in front of the room is nice.

United StatesLooks like sometimes they turned the water access off at night.. but sometimes was on. Since there are guests coming and going, showering, washing hands after toilet ect. It’s best to just leave the water consistently on for guests.
Room is a fair size, you have your own bathroom, you have your own little porch or patio, air conditioning works well, beautiful little garden oasis where you hear the birds and geckos 🦎 , outdoor shower, the apartment is literally 1 minute from the beach walking, 2 minutes from supermarket, 2-5 minutes from fabulous restaurants ❤️

Costa RicaThe kitchen could do with a revamp and some more utensils. But it's good enough for a few days. The room can be a little noisy as it's next to the road, but at night the road is quiet, so we didn't have a problem.
Very close to the beach, literally across the road. Clean room, comfortable bed, good A/C, nice bathroom with hot shower. Fridge in the room. Kitchen has cold and hot water for drinking, and the necessary you need to cook basic meals. You have your own little patio with a sofa, table and chairs and a hammock.

United KingdomI loved the fact that this accommodation is just two minutes walk from a lovely beach. The town is not much further, about five minutes walk. There are three rooms in a nice garden. They all have bathroom with shower and a terrace each. There's a communal kitchen, which was great. The vibe is quiet, it's a small family run hotel and the owners are pleasant and very helpful. The room is cleaned daily. Would definitely stay there again.

United StatesThe bed was SO uncomfortable, it feels like a hard rock. A mattress topper would go a long way! Pillows are also not great, so I’d definitely bring your own. Also if you’re looking to be right in the middle of town/the action, this is not the place for you, but it is easy to walk there. One other downside is the walls/window seem very thin, the window faces the common outdoor area near the owner’s home and other guest rooms so there are often people walking by and you can hear footsteps/convo/the gravel very clearly. So doesn’t exactly feel romantic/secluded for couples if that matters to you!
Overall I would recommend Casa del Sol. Very close to the beach (2 minute walk across the road), close enough to town (5-10 min walk depending what part of town you need to walk to), quiet location. Kitchen is clean and well equipped. Staff are kind and attentive! Wifi is good and hot water was not a problem. Hammock and couch on the front porch is a nice plus! Room was a good size and was cleaned each day.
