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.).

United StatesWe had a great time at Casa Federico. The views are incredible of the ocean and wildlife. We had Parakeets come visit us every day. We had just one hiccup when the A/C unit started making a loud noise. We called Rey and he was on it immediately. He told us he was going to install a new. We went out on our adventures for the day and when we returned the problem was solved with a new unit. Great job and thank you Rey and Casa Federico!!!

United KingdomThe roads/paths to the property are very steep, however, this didn't really bother us at all, but may be an issue for some.
The apartment itself was amazing, it was spacious, had 2 hanging chairs so you could sit and look at the view if the ocean. The property was surrounded by trees and plants, where we could see Hummingbirds, a couple of macaws and the monkeys which visited the apartment in the morning and the evening. Frederico the host was helpful and was easily contactable if you needed anything. The property gad everything we needed. The location was perfect for us, only 15 minutes into town. Highly recommended

NetherlandsThe living room is always “open”
Magnificent sea view from our room. Having a beer in the hanging chairs with sea view was great. Very spacious living room. The living room and indirectly the bathroom are in an open area, which can’t be closed. The sleeping room can be closed by doors and have an airco. Monkeys are around the location, very nice.

United StatesThe location has a very nice view of the Marina, but it was spoiled during our trip by a big crane and the construction going on. There was a lot of noise and so many lights on the construction sight that it was annoying.
Good location and view of the ocean and Marina. Reymar was a great host!

United KingdomAccess is up a steep hill, but it took no more than 10 min to walk up. The open terrace would not be suitable for young children.
Lovely view across the marina and the sea with wonderful sunsets, and wildlife to watch around the house. Raymar was very helpful in organising trips and providing information updates. Mosqito net on the bedroom door and air-con in the bedroom made it very comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped.

Rey was an amazing host, went down for 5 nights with my wife on our honeymoon and Rey treated us like family. Anything we needed or somewhere to go he was always there to help. If i could rate him and the place more I would. 100% recommend to anyone going to Quepos and going to Casa Federico. Beaches and other sightseeings are minutes away driving or taxi. Everything was convenient!

United KingdomUnfortunately this place is misssold as bedroom and living room, but it’s not true and we were left with one bed in the outside terrace we’re it’s packed with insects and bugs, not too mention monkeys . The host shrugged shoulders and said but you would wake up with the sound of the ocean. The construction site nearby woke us up at 5am every day after a few hours sleep because of tin roof above the bedroom and twigs and other debris falling off the trees above. Wouldn’t recommend this place
Clean place and great views from the terrace

United StatesI didn't like that the whole place didn't have AC. Only the small bedroom had AC. I probably would not have booked the place had I known it was open to the outside, no living room wall. It was unsettling using the bathroom with the outside 15 feet away.
I love the view and the space of the apartment. It was clean and updated.

United StatesThe pictures on Booking.com are not the place we were given. I don’t usually pick homes but it looked nice. We stayed in an entirely different place next to the place from website. We left a day early. There were no dishes for a family. The drive to the place is terrible and no way you’d want to walk it.

United StatesThe pros- The view is amazing. The location was close to town which was nice for getting places. The communication with Rey was great until it wasn’t. He organized a tour to Manual Antonio park, which was great. After one night, I texted Rey that we were unhappy with the accommodations due to the fact that was not what was advertised (see below), he mentioned that he did have another apartment that did have AC throughout but it would be an extra $100 in addition to what we were already paying for. The cons- The description of this place does not match what the place actually is. It is advertised as “this air-conditioned apartment features 1 living room, 1 separate bedroom and 1 bathroom” and that is not true. The bedroom has AC. The rest of the apartment, the living room, the kitchen, is outside with no AC. Even the bathroom is outside. Because of the heat and humidity in Manual Antonio, we were unable to hang out in the living area as there is no AC there. This place would be perfect for someone looking for a Glamping experience (glamourized camping) as that is what it is like. Also, there is a lot of road noise at night. The kitchen has minimal utensils, the coffee maker did not work as well as one of the floor fans. Only after we left did Rey offer to give us the other fully air conditioned apartment without the extra charge of $100. If you know what you are getting (an apartment that is mostly outside in nature) you would like your stay here.
