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 StatesThe smaller fan on the patio was old and loud, but necessary to keep the mosquitos at bay.
The pool is salt water, very clean, and peaceful. The large covered patio with table, chairs, hammock, and fans is really nice to have, especially during rainy season. I got a very quick response using what’s app to any questions. We easily found everything we needed, even conveniences like scissors, plastic wrap, a shopping bag, and good knife for cutting fruit. Eduardo, the on-site staff, was helpful and kept everything in good order.

United StatesOur only REAL complaint about our room, was that the fitted sheet on the bed would not stay "fitted" and made sleeping sometimes a little uncomfortable as it kept slipping and the mattress protector was plastic and was not really nice to sleep on. The road to get to the hotel was horrible, but we knew ahead of time, and were prepared.
It was very clean. Has a nice kitchen area. Property was lovely. We were on the ground floor, which was awesome, as we do have some mobility issues, and the pool was literally outside our door. Access to beach was incredible. Loved that we could safely drink the tap water and appreciated them having a pitcher of cold water in the refrigerator when we arrived.

Location was perfect for us. It was a short walk to the beach or town without being too close to crowds. Loved the landscaping, view of pool from our deck, our own private hammock and table to eat outside or in. Beautifully remodeled room! Staff was attentive to our needs. Would definitely stay here again! Loved it!

CanadaI love to cook, so a little more counter space in the kitchen would be lovely, but what was there was usable and appreciated.
Location is fantastic, with easy access to the beach. The view from the private lanai is spectacular, and having a private covered area made the rainy time pleasant. The staff and owner are all so friendly and caring. The bathrooms and showers are decadent!

United StatesI can’t think of anything I really didn’t like…
We booked two rooms. The large house is absolutely stunning. Each separate apartment has its own character with interesting decorations, neat wood furniture, and private patios. The patios overlook a beautiful garden and the pool. We spent a lot of time in the hammocks and at the patio tables. The rooms are quiet - it seems as if the building is very good at reducing noise levels. The location is superb - a quiet neighborhood, the path to the beach across the street, and just down the road a few minutes is the path to Playa Langosta too. Couldn’t get any better. So thankful we were able to stay here. The staff were amazing and friendly. They helped me work on my Spanish conversation skills and the property manager helped me out on a couple of issues (self-caused issues like me forgetting my room passcode).

United StatesThe only thing that was really difficult, was checking in. I didn’t realize until we were in the air on our way to Costa Rica from the US, that we needed special check in instructions if arriving after 4. I emailed the hotel when we arrived in Costa Rica but of course didn’t have WiFi or cell reception once we left the airport. When we arrived at the hotel, no one was there to check us in and we couldn’t get into our unit. It felt scary because it was getting dark, we didn’t know the area and we had two small children with us. A kind woman named Seven emailed back and then eventually showed up to help us with lights and other concerns. That made all the difference!! My only suggestion to this property is to give the gate and unit codes ahead of time.
The property was clean and well maintained. I think we all have the experience of a place appearing nice, but then when you look closer things are falling apart and aren’t as nice as they originally appeared. This was the exact opposite experience at Casa Sueca. It looks like a nice place when you first arrive, but as days go on, it is noticeably nicer and nicer. The furniture is fantastic quality, the bed (king sized bed in the 2 bedroom suite) was a dream to sleep in! Tile is in good condition, layout was perfect. The grounds are clean. The people working there were so kind! Location is ideal, away from the crazy hustle and bustle of Tamarindo but an easy walk in. Nice restaurants/cafes a 5 minute walk away. Beach is through a little path, not even 2 minutes! We will be back.

United StatesNo complaints, really. They were responsive when we needed them to be and kept to themselves.
The location was excellent! Directly across the street from the beach, with easy access to the fun Playa Tamarindo and the more secluded, private Playa Langosta. We appreciated the hands-off approach from the staff as it made the house feel like our own private place. Staff frequently cleaned the pools and worked in the background to keep the property beautiful and clean, and checked in when appropriate to see if we needed anything for our room. From the room alone we were able to see monkeys, iguanas, and all sorts of colorful birds. It's a peaceful slice of paradise!
