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.).

It was a bit difficult to find. They could use a bigger sign. Also parking was an issue.

Verified reviewGreat 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.
There 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’.

Verified reviewEach 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.
I 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.

Verified reviewEverything about this place was perfect. The place itself is a few minutes walk from nightlife but far enough for the peace and quiet. The staff were really friendly and excited to help. Out of my 7 day stay in Costa Rica, this was the most relaxing.

Verified reviewExceptionally 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.
For me a small working table would have been handy, but for surfers- beach holiday people nothing missing I guess.
Hi Ly, thank you so much for the suggestion! And for your review. We have the house since 30 years in town… we were the fists house on the road that had Phone and TV… old times… lots of memories… We have a small deck for the people that come to work in case they need it! Yes, surfers love the space, we are very close to the beach and also to the best breaks in town. See you another time! Pura vida Sol

Verified reviewGood location. Pretty room. Clean.
The place didn't have running water half of the time. Power also cut out once. Host was not particularly helpful. Not rude either, but did the bare minimum and did not entertain any requests, such as staying in a common space after check out until the shuttle picked me up. Had to walk around in the heat between cafes. Not worth the money I paid.
Hi Augustin, This is Sol, I am the owner of the property… we are a team working together since more than 30 years in Tamarindo Beach… let see if I can clarify a little your discontent of our family home: Starting for the electricity issue, the power went down one time because the electrical company Coopeguanacaste had an issue in the corner of our property… there is nothing we can do about it… you were constantly needing electricity because of your full time job… so there is nothing we can do about that in CR. As far as the water supply… town is full and there is no rain for 6 months… if you do a little research about tamarindo beach you will know that March April and May are the worst month with water issue, we do have a water tank at the house to use from 7:30 am to 8 pm so people can have water all day…. Saying that, we close pump so our tank can fill up for next day. As soon as you tell us you had no pressure we turn the pump for you… so not understanding your complaints. Last but no least… you requested an early check in… we let you in to have your call of the day 2 hrs before and we didn’t charge you… we did our best to have the room ready… and like we explained on the last day… we couldn’t give you a late check out too… because our cleaning lady could stay longer… Hopefully this message explain you better why you had this “issues” We hope you enjoy Acosta Rica. Pura vida Sol

Verified reviewRoom 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 ❤️
Looks 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.

Verified reviewWe had a great stay at Casa del sol. The room was very clean, communication was easy and the location was in walking distance from all the restaurants and bars but still in a quiet area. The beach was only 2 minutes away.
It was a pleasure to meet you ♥️ see you next time Sol

Verified reviewGreat location, close to beach, close to restaurants shops while being quiet.
Place had a strange feel with the steel fencing and razor wire walls. Had some safety issues, hammock rope was frayed and broke leaving me bedridden for the next 10 days. Loose gravel on steps coming in.
