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 bathroom does not have enough hangers for towels, and I am not even considering the beach towels, you have to dry them in the terraza. Make sure to bring your own toiletries because the casita only offers hands and body soap. There is not hair dryer (I know it is the beach and the weather is hot, but if you have thick hair as me, at nights your hair will take longer to dry). Sometimes there are electricity outages, so it will be very helpful if the property had some candles in each casita. We experienced two short power outages the first day, but none during the rest of our stay. The rooms inside the casita are the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. Be aware that the living and dinning areas are outside in the terraza. I am not saying that it is something bad, but it was not clear to me in the description of the casita as I booked.
The casita we stayed at has a good storage space. We were two people and we had more than enough place to put our luggage and things. However, in the bedroom there are not enough hangers. The beds and pillows are comfortable and the room has a cute decoration. The room has an air conditioning and also a fan, so you choose which one to use. The casita has a small but functional kitchen with good quality pots, just make sure to bring your own spices (salt, pepper, oil, etc.), as there are none. Be aware that the property does not offer dinning options, that is why every casita has its kitchen. The terraza is a great place to chill out and it includes the dinning and living areas: a wooden dinning benches, armchairs, and a hammock. Each casita has the parking spot right next to it, just be aware that it is not covered. The property includes a nice small swimming pool perfect for relaxing. The property is located on a hill right next to the main road, and 1.5 kilometers from Montezuma downtown. You can hear the cars, but also congos and many birds. If you are lucky, you can also see the guatusas around the gardens or right in front of your casita.

CanadaThe manager Mercedes was very helpful and genuinely seemed to care about her guests (she stood out in the rain waiting for us to arrive on the first night). Her activity recommendations were great and she helped us navigate the tides and told us how to go see a baby turtles release. She helped organize a surf lesson, which we enjoyed. The welcome booklet was helpful. The casita was comfy and cute and the pool was inviting. The water was hot, plentiful, and safe to drink. The restaurant next door was delicious! It was a 5 min drive to town and close to the main road, so it was easy to get to. We didn't notice too much road noise. They allowed us to store our bags for a few hours after we checked out. If we come back to Montezuma, we'll stay here again.

Its location just out of town might be inconvenient for some but it is immersed in nature with mostly (a little traffic noise during the day from the nearby road) a very calm environment with howler monkeys overhead, iguanas, agouti and birds regular visitors. Mercedes, our host, was very welcoming and helpful. Would stay again.

Francethat we had to leave ;-)
The bungalow was beautifully decorated, fully equipped (incl. aircon, water filter and European power plugs) and comfortable. The setting is in the middle of a tropical garden. The plants and the distances to the other accommodations provide privacy, even on the big terrace (with hammock etc.). We stayed only for a couple of days, but we felt invited to stay much longer. There is also a pool which our kids enjoyed a lot.

United KingdomIf youre staying a bit longer and cooking, prepare to bring (if youre local) or buy the basics for the kitchen - a little oil, black pepper etc. When i visited, there was only salt.
Casa colores was a DELIGHTFUL place to stay. The little houses are perfect for solo travelers and equally would have been great as a couple or family. Loved lazing around in the hammock, listening to the birds. The property grounds were beautiful - its a paradise. Mercedes was wonderful and as a solo traveller, she answered my Qs kindly about the area and made sure I was comfortable. The pool is a real treat on hot days too!

SpainNothing at all. You do have to bear in mind that the 2km walk down the road into town would be pretty dangerous in the dark because of vehicles, and the cost of a taxi back is about $8 but factor that in and it's fine.
Everything. Honestly, we were so comfortable and loved having birds around us and hearing the howler monkeys from the poolside. The cabin was spot on and, although it's definitely in our "splurge" category for price, we would do it again without hesitation.
