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.).

A little further from the hub of things than we thought . The gravel road is very noisy and gets quite alot of trafic . Transport required to get about .

Verified reviewWe enjoyed our stay at Los Delfines Lodge very much! Miguel and Marta are great hosts. They are extremely helpful, supported us, even washed and dried our cloth and drove us with their car. The house has a beautiful garden and a nice kitchen. We definitely recommend Los Delfines Lodge and would come again.

Verified reviewThe hosts were attentive without being intrusive and were very helpful and considerate. They made us feel at home. The kitchen was very well equipped. the property was spacious. We liked having use of bicycles and used them to cycle to Puerto Viejo and Manzanillo national park. The Agouti in the garden was a bonus!
There was some road noise, but this was beyond the hosts’s control.

Couldn't use the washing machine or shower much, because the government wasn't delivering water to them

Verified reviewMiguel and Marta were lovely hosts. Friendly & very helpful. The whole property is absolutely gorgeous and well taken care of. House was very clean, and the whole property had a safe, family friendly atmosphere, and their dog is so so sweet. We fell asleep to the sounds of nature, completely surrounded by jungle noises. Would absolutely recommend. Good value for the price. Location is a bit of a walk from town, but our hosts gave us bikes to use free of charge! Amazing
thanks Jennifer, it was very nice to have you at our place Marta and Miguel

Verified reviewOk, let me start with the fact I almost never share comments on booking.com. But for Los Delfinos Lodge I want to make an exception. Miguel is absolutely AMAZING. Oh and did I say that the property is as amazing as Miguel? The hospitality, the car drive in the night to the city Center, the stories about the environment, the bikes, the beds. Lovely to wake up with the sound of howler monkeys and then make our breakfast in our own kitchen. This is the message you wanted to read in the reviews: go to los delfinos lodge, you won’t regret it! 🙏 ❤️🍀

Verified reviewcabin was well equipped
The host Miguel was constantly arriving where we were renting and asking us not to use the water, that we turn down the music and the first night of stay from 6:00 p.m. until 6:00 a.m. the next day there was no electricity or water and he gave us As a solution, it had a hose, and it was more than 2 kilometers from the nearest beach with a road in poor condition, that is, it was not accessible. When I asked him not to come to where we rented, he told me that he was the owner and if he wanted he would hang out there.

Verified reviewSpacious and comfortable rooms and beds. Well equipped kitchen and lovely common area and garden. If you have a car it’s a 7 minute drive to the city center, and really close to supermarket and amazing beaches. The host is very welcoming and available for any question or request.
the wall between the rooms is thin so there is no privacy. there is no glass in the windows, just net, so you can hear all the jungle noises all the time. In all our nights there, there was an extremely loud noise from the animals (probably monkeys) in the middle of the night, which made it impossible to sleep, considering there is no window to close in order to shut out the noise. also the curtains are thin so the room is bright early in the morning.
up to now every one likes the noices of the jungle and all the walls of the house are made of concrete. Hope you enjoy Bocas del Toro
