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.).

CanadaMy only very minor recommendation is to bring the pool cushions in when it rains. They dont dry well with the humidity and were often soaking wet even the next morning.
We had an amazing stay at The Sunset Shack. Our room was comfortable, clean and spacious. Courteous and responsive staff. The restaurant on site offers an excellent breakfast and has a great food and cocktail menu, reasonably priced for Nosara. Pool is relaxing and quiet. Great location, close to the beach and everything else. Would stay here again.

United StatesOur mini fridge stopped working mid stay. We couldn’t cool the bathroom with the ac since the window was always open and unable to be fully closed. But overall we dealt with it fine. Some ants in the room needed to be dispatched daily.
Breakfast is included in the room fee. It’s a good breakfast. Choose from the menu. Nice little salt water pool. Outdoor shower is useful. Good restaurant adjoining property. Close to beach. Realistically a 7 minute walk, not 3 as stated in other places. The hotel staff will book you nearly anything you can think of through a series of local hospitality and tourism connections.

United StatesThe location is great, but is expensive for 3 stars. It was not a problem, but just know going in that there are not a lot of extras for comfort. For example, no hair drier, basic bedding, and really just a simple room. I was comfortable, but it felt over priced. Great air conditioning!
Amazing staff! Every single staff member from the restaurant, to reception, to the cleaning staff was friendly, helpful and genuine. Great location! Very short walk to beautiful beach. The included breakfast was good, you had a menu to choose from. I had a special diet, so they let me pick and choose.

Czech RepublicNets in the windows had holes and need to be repaired. Weird system in the windows instead of glass allowed a lot of noice from outside. The palm above the building shall be maintained as leaves are banging into the roof during night winds and it is almost impossible to sleep. Quality and selection of sweet breakfast shall be improved - the granola was nor granola but a ton of sesame and french toast was burnt and not good at all - quality selection for kids like pancakes is missing especially for longer stay. Reception is almost not present all the time, but reachable via WhatsApp.
Good location near the beach, pool located in the nice garden, a good selection of various types of breakfast, on site restaurant accesible through the day from breakfast till dinner. Room was ok, we appreciated basic kitchen equipment to prepare fruits for kids.

United StatesI thought the price was a little high. The road construction was challenging but realize that is not the fault of the hotel. Often times I would come to the bar for a beer or food - staff helpful but not always friendly - spent more time talking to each other and friends who would visit than refilling water or asking if you wanted anything else. One guy - Axel- was awesome!
The location was great - a map inside the room outlining shops, bars and maybe paths to places would be great. wanted to walk to Playa Pelada but only roads show up on waze or Google naps. Insider tips on jungle paths to take would be helpful. Front office check-in/out staff very friendly and process easy.

United StatesThe rooms are clean and comfortable. I think some traveling with families may find them a little small. Since our kids are grown up, we needed 2 rooms anyway so we were fine.
We loved the location and overall feel of this hotel. The staff are very helpful, and the restaurant is excellent. Freshly made breakfasts were great, nice bar and great lunch / evening meals available too.
