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.).

Verified reviewNearby beach, spacious and clean room, typical breakfast and available pool, free beach lounger and umbrella at the beach.
No hangers in the bathroom, location hard to reach without car need to walk uncomfortable street. Food is mediocre but very pricey. All other food options are minimum 15 min by walking. Pool need renovation.

Verified reviewBreakfast was good. This hotel is great and we are very glad we stayed there. Staff was very friendly. Staying so close to the beach was awesome.
The restaurant was way too expensive. We only ate their once and we would have eaten there every night had the prices been lower.

Verified reviewThe location was amazing. It was just a short walk downhill to the Manuel Antonio Park. We were close by to a lot of restaurants. They were just a short drive away and during the off-season, there was plenty of parking. We opted to use an Uber though we wouldn’t have to deal with the windy road at night. We stayed in the rooms on the lower half which means we were just a short walk to the beach also. It was lovely being so close to the beach. I loved to open the room’s door and just hear the ocean.The beach was lovely and there were tons of capuchin monkeys playing around sunset every day. All of the staff was wonderful and so helpful. I highly recommend staying here.

Verified reviewWe arrived on Friday and left on Monday. All these days we did not need to leave the hotel, we had everything we wanted and more. On Friday evening there was a performance of live music and singing, it was a very pleasant surprise, we had so much fun, we danced, everything was beyond expectations. The hotel's beach is very well organized, there are umbrellas, chairs, drink and food service on the beach, everything you want and need on vacation. There is a pool. The nature is great, hooded monkeys visit the complex several times a day, we did not need to go to the national park, we got everything in the hotel complex, we had a fun vacation, and we will return to this perfect hotel soon. All the employees are very nice and speak English. The breakfasts are varied, and there is a choice of options
For us the vacation was perfect, We loved every moment, we will definitely go back there.

We didn't have hot water, however, they did repair it at the end of our stay. I remembered reading that there was a TV in our room but there wasn't.

Verified reviewThe part of this hotel that was on the beach side of the road has a good location next to Mauel Antonio beach. The restaurant and pool were next to the beach in gardens. Staff laid out chairs or loungers on the sand under the palm trees and were very helpful. We stayed in the new bedrooms on the hill the otherside of the road (lots of steps up - no porters around). They had a nice view of the tree tops out to sea. Beds were comfortable and bathroom was okay.
The restaurant was expensive compared to some great alternatives nearby (restaurants in Manuel Antonio are plentiful and excellent) and quality did not match up to the price. Breakfast - adequate but nothing special. There were some weird carpet underlay (yes really!) coasters on tables for dinner. They looked soggy with condensation from the glasses and very unhygenic. New build rooms had poor build quality. Patio door did not close properly. No charging points, or plug for hair dryer, cheap inadequate blinds, light switches bizarely placed in the wardrobe! A couple of the lights didn't work. Building work was going on nearby to build more new rooms which was noisy. Welcome reception scruffy, no security at night. Our children's rooms were next to the road. Avoid these, the road is VERY noisy. There is no sound isulation in these rooms at all. This hotel is confused about what it is offering. Location could make it stunning but low quality details, relatively high price for the beach side rooms and indifferent management detract.

Verified reviewLovely hotel with direct beach access. The room was great and the restaurant beautifully situated right on the beach. The gardens/landscaping were gorgeous.

Verified reviewcomfortable room with big balcony - good easy parking in secure space, but you need a code to get in and out. Pool area/restaurant was nice.
there was no sea view - its blocked by the trees. You only ever meet staff at the check in and then they are MIA. The shower was COLD. The body wash wasn't enough or good, generally very budget for what you pay.

Verified reviewExcellent villas with beach view and free beach access. Excellent location, free parking, complimentary breakfast and access to the beach. It was especially convenient to walk to Manuel Antonio park as parking is a hassle around the area. Staff was courteous and even helped us get our luggage to and from the villa. The villas are quite a climb up the hill via steep steps and there is no elevator.

Verified reviewGeneral overview, amazing! Location, installation, common areas, room space, view, service quality.
My room, number 7, had an amazing view, exclusive. However it was a challenge to walk up all those stairs with a Toddler and baggages. Restaurant prices were high ($24 usd for a regular burger with fries)
