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 reviewThe unit was amazing. Spacious and new. Great location. Nice quiet and convenient, nice pool. Friendly and personable host owner Jason and agent Audrey. Flexible and responsive. Couldn't ask for more really. Definately want to return.
Parking was a bit awkward with narrow sloped spaces in front. but not bad. and was very convenient. Neighborhood felt safe so i wasn't worried about it not being secured parking. I may avoid renting a car next time to avoid extra expense and all. But it was nice to have sometimes, so it depends I guess.

Verified reviewThe Maravilla has large, airy rooms and is very quiet. At the same time, it is only a four minute walk to shops and stores and a six minute walk to the beach. All appliances are brand new. The staff was abundantly helpful.
I would have appreciated more stainless steel bowls for cooking.

Verified reviewIt was clean and beautiful. We had a wonderful time and the pool was so nice. It was close to many restaurants and the beach. They thought of everything to make the stay wonderful!
It would be nice if the shower head had adjustable pressure.

Verified reviewWe loved our stay here. The appartment was very spacious, modern, well equiped and very clean. The doors close with a code lock, so you can self check-in when you arrive late, and don’t have to worry about losing keys. Good AC, great water pressure, very nice pool, well equiped kitchen. The host Audrey is always quickly available when you have questions, and has great recommendations. She put us in touch with wrss (wave rider surf school) and Pablo for a nightly turtle tour. Both were a great hit. Chill people who focus on quality, not your money-hungry tourist trips. Without Audrey’s help, we would not have found them!
It is a bit out of the centre. It is a 15’ walk to the beach. Going back is uphill, but manageable. We were happy we had a car to go back and forth.

Verified reviewThe condo interior was immaculate and very comfortable. Walking distance to everything was acceptable. Great restaurants nearby (MariaJuana was excellent). Host was fabulous.
Issue with the salt water pool and the plunge pool were not resolved during our stay. Attempts were being made to resolve the issue.

Verified reviewThe location is very convenient, very close from the beach and the restaurants with the value added of less noise. The beds are real good I slept very well and I liked the contemporary style of the condo. It will be my first option when I go to Tamarindo.
No, complaints.
