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.).

Our car was not adequate to stay at the location we booked at, and Randy immediately organized for us to stay in their other location and helped us with relocating - even having our bags brought for us. We loved the location and everything that we needed was there. Thank you, Randy! Your customer service is phenomenal.

IsraelThe way to get to the complex is long and hard, not recommended for those willing to stay close to city. No dinner , only option is delivery (which is pretty expensive).
Great complex, clean , comfortable and had nice facilities. Road is terrible, required 4x4. Very far from city center. Perfect for those who seek for quite and relaxing experience in the jungle. Cesar welcome us , was amazing, took us for a night "tour" to see frogs and other animals.

Vietnamour coffee machine was a bit confusing. We could use clear instructions next to it. Took me several tries and I'm not sure I ever did it correctly. It's a bit away from the city center so most restaurants won't deliver to it, but the guy at the front desk was able to recommend some that did, in case you want to get dinner without leaving the property.
Location is incredible. You'll have to go down some very rocky unpaved roads for a few km/miles, but in our 4x4 it wasn't any problem as long as we moved slowly. Then you'll end up at a location that feels truly isolated, quiet, and calm. There's a great little walking trail that dips into the forests behind the rooms that is well maintained and short but full of variety. And you can see the volcano easily from the hot-tub! Very cool view, and the rooms are cute and clearly designed with the volcano in mind. The porch looks out over it, and we enjoyed our yogurt/granola/fruit breakfast from the porch while the fog drifted over the top of the volcano in the distance. Room is nice otherwise, very high ceilings, coffee machine with better than average coffee available.

United KingdomRoad was bad in places but fine with a 4x4. Shower temp was on and off.
Loved our stay. We booked last minute as wanted to leave another hotel. Because of timing it was slightly discounted and I think we had a brilliant price. The location is stunning and view of volcano would be brilliant - it was cloudy for us. The room was big, bed was comfy and everything clean. Sat out in the terrace and listened to frogs all evening. Lots of wildlife around to watch. Wifi was good. Breakfast was delivered to room and a really good selection.

United KingdomWe had a 4x4 car, but you definitely need at least an SUV to access the place.
Near Mistico Park, the view was insanely good! Jacuzzi in front of the window with volcano view! Very friendly staff! The breakfast was a bit small but it was in the restaurant inside the mistico park which overseas again the volcano and the natural reserve!

United StatesPeople have commented on the road leading to the cabins. It is indeed rough and I would not want to try to bring a car. However, we had an appropriate vehicle and thought it added to the charm of the place and gave us the feel of being out in the jungle away from others. It was about a 30 minute drive to La Fortuna on some really curvy narrow roads. Again, not a problem for us because we knew this and planned for it. You would not want to stay here without a vehicle. We would love for there to have been more screens on windows so that we could have left windows open at night instead of using the air conditioner.
The rooms have amazing views of Arenal volcano. The giant windows overlooking the volcano were certainly a highlight of the facilities. Everything seemed fairly new and clean. Behind the cabins was some amazing jungle with a short hiking trail. We didn't eat the breakfast so can't comment on that. The location is super close to Mistico Hanging Bridges so we made a point to the be the first ones at the park so that we could avoid the crowds.

United StatesSince the facility is in the rainforest, there is a lot of wildlife around the bungalow, and inevitably some insects got inside. Also, despite information saying the dry season goes from December-April, it rained nonstop and we had no view of the volcano at all over three days. If you want to have any chance of seeing Arenal volcano, you should go January-March
The facilities were very nice, clean, quiet and secluded. Excellent for someone who wants a quiet place off the beaten path. However, the road to get there is very rough, so an SUV and 4x4 is probably a must to reach this property.
