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.).

United KingdomOur room was a little tired & cramped for 4 people. The bathroom in particular could do with an upgrade.
The communal dining area had a nice outlook onto the river and it was a quiet location away from the main town

CanadaThe original booking was slightly misleading.
After arriving we were somewhat disappointed with the original booking. The staff were excellent and were able to upgrade us to a glamping suite. The resort was clean and very relaxing. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly.

We stayed at the glamping accommodation with our own jacuzzi, hammock, balcony overseeing the jungle with monkeys parading in front of us in the morning. The restaurant/breakfast area was all open and overlooking the river. The staff was incredibly nice and accommodating of changes in plans/tours.

United KingdomIt is difficult to rate this stay, as Tortuguero is a unique and remote location where I understand it can be challenging to build infrastructure or source fresh food. That said, I found the price for one night in the glamping accommodation quite high for what is offered. The gardens are beautiful and the setting is lovely, but the breakfast fell well below expectations. Overall, I would rate my stay a 4 out of 5. If I were to return to Tortuguero, I would likely explore other accommodation options

PortugalThough there were 3 free boats per day in and out Tortuguero from the hotel, if you need to do the trip outside the schedules you'll need to pay the taxi yourself, 2000 CRC per person. Keep that in mind when you book it

The accommodation, grounds and pool were lovely, the food was good (we ate in both days (which is very unusual for us) and the staff couldn’t do enough for you. Great early morning wildlife boat trip with Antonio. Saw and learnt a lot. Big thumbs up and thank you to all the staff from us.

FranceThere are only 3 free boat slots to go to Tortuguero : 11am, 3pm and 5pm. 11 am is clearly too late as it’s already very hot. A boat at 8 am would have been perfect. We felt stuck in the hotel.
Very beautiful garden, the staff is very nice and helpful. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool a lot. Good breakfast.

The abundance of wildlife we got to see here was the great. We got close-up pictures of howler monkeys , spider monkeys, aracaris, hummingbirds, falcon and other birds. The staff was wonderful. They stay on top of all things requiring any maintenance. We saw them clean the air conditioners, swap out old mattresses and furniture, and they mopped the floors after meals and wiped down everything. They had good breakfast and dinner options.

United StatesNothing. Everything was wonderful.
We stayed in bungalow 6 which was set back in the jungle. We were thankful for the cold plunge pool after returning from our tours. We had a family of spider and a family of howler monkeys come right through our back area. Toucans too. The lunch and dinners were the best. Great taste profiles. Just delicious. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. We stayed two nights and wish it were longer.
