Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaI think nothing specific about the property, just ST in general is quite expensive and not local.
Great location if you want quick beach access. Good kitchen and spacious dorms.

NetherlandsVery nice stay here at Point Break. The staff is friendly: they even have us a free upgrade which was so so kind! Room was clean and facilities were good. Only downside was the pillows: these were not really comfortable at all. But still would stay since the location is also good but if you have a room facing the road it might be noisy. We didn’t have that.

Staff were really helpful and lovely! Cleaning staff found an item I didn’t realise I’d lost and returned it to me! Really good location. Really good night’s sleep there, liked having a balcony overlooking the communal area, and liked that there was a fridge we could use and coffee on tap all day! Room nice and big and had air on.

BrazilThe location is perfect, near the beach, cafes, supermarkets and stores. The room was simple but very clean and spacious. It even had a huge balcony that was really nice. The shower was great, with lots of space and high water pressure. I highly recommend this stay.

United StatesThe “free upgrade to a room with a balcony” offered by Booking puts you on the Main Street. The ATV, motorcycle, car noise was constant, as was the 1-5 am march of the partiers and their enthusiastic conversations. Definitely a Downgrade of room choice.
Clean facility. Friendly staff.

MaltaThere is a bit of a walk (20 min) to the bars that’s are functional in the evenings. I rented a bike which solved the problem so no big deal.
Clean and very calm and serene. The staff are exceptional especially Delfina who was always ready to help and provided all information needed. Just across the road from the best beach in town with stunning sunsets. There is a supermarket and also loads of cafes and sodas within walking distance that are amazing. Morning coffee provided which was very good. I extended my stay here and would defina stay here again.

United KingdomWe had to pay to refill our water bottles which was quite expensive compared to the shop next door.
The property was exceptionally clean and very comfortable. We had a spacious room, which was wonderful after our travels, and we even received an upgrade to a room with a balcony. The location was ideal, situated in the heart of Santa Teresa, close to both the beach and various restaurants. The staff was also very helpful.

AustraliaThe front desk staff weren’t always available/there. The hostel can be noisy but I don’t think that’s their fault as there are signs saying to respect the quiet hours (but American tourists clearly don’t read or don’t understand how to communicate without yelling)
Good location, there’s a kitchen which helps cut down costs in such an expensive town… and staff are nice.

United KingdomI didn’t mind it but if you have the front rooms by the road it can get noisy with the cars. Just a tip if you are sensitive to noise ask for the rooms at the back (we stayed twice and had both front and bak rooms)
Big rooms, really clean and comfortable. The hotel is at an excellent location and has everything you’ll need.
