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 StatesLiked having the apartment so we could cook breakfast and dinner. Nice walk along the beach to town. Pool nice and refreshing. Like that we could rent boogie boards right at the hotel. Lifeguards on the beach. Nicely priced Fresh brewed coffee at front desk.

United KingdomThe location is incredible - a few steps from the gorgeous beach, and with whitefaced monkeys playing in the trees! The staff upgraded us for free into an accessible room with two queen beds when they saw my mother was on crutches with a sprained ankle. They also allow you to continue to use the facilities and give you access to showers and towels etc after check out time. The pool is lovely, and it is slightly away from the main strip meaning it is very peaceful, but everything within a 10 minute walk (or 2 minute drive). They can book ANYTHING you want for you. Power cut out a few times, but that can't be helped I guess. Loved it!

United KingdomThe room was quite basic and the windows looked out on the open air corridor to the other rooms. The water pressure in the shower was a bit low
The location is amazing, the hotel has direct beach access. Being able to wake up and walk along the beach without any planning was a real joy. You can walk to restaurants, bars and shops in < 5 mins. The aircon was very good

CanadaYou can’t beat this location! Just steps from the beach and close to all the shops and restaurants. We had the 1 bedroom suite, so we traded extra space for a view. Squirrel monkeys played in the trees by the pool. Iguanas just walked around. Scarlett macaws were eating almonds just outside the gate. Breakfast at the on site outdoor restaurant was good and cheap. Be sure to try the coffee! Will miss the little orange and white cat. Pura vida!

United StatesThe pool was amazing! The beach was amazing! The staff was amazing! The beach could definitely be more comfortable. It would be better if there were blackout curtains in the front window bc there is a light outside each one. I could have used another blanket but I didn’t ask for one. We did ask for extra pillows which they brought right away. There was a hotel kitten named Jaco was a super added bonus! While I only saw one monkey on the property, lots of other people said they saw them at the pool and even a sloth closer to the evening. They have towels you can take to the beach or pool. They are the same size as a bathroom towel. Just an fyi. Not an issue. The photos online make it look like there were beach chairs for the hotel but they do not have any. But there is a guy who rents them right there. We got 3 chairs and a shade for about $15 for all day. There are 5 lounge chairs and the pool but they always seemed to be available. The restaurant on site was so good too. Closed Wednesday, just an FYI. Check out was at 11 but they will hold your bags and you can stay all day. There is a bathroom in the lobby with a shower to use.

GermanyThe hotel is very well located and the rooms were very comfortable and clean. However when we were about to check in, I got attacked by a swarm of wasps that were on the hotel’s parking lot. The front desk staff watched on impassively as I was stung multiple times and didn’t even have the decency to ask if I was alright. They did not have any first aid kit nor did they offer any help. It was very dehumanizing and plain rude. Because of that, I’ll stay somewhere that has attentive staff next time I go to Manuel Antonio.

United StatesYou pay a deposit for beach towels but they’re the exact same as the room towels. It would have been nice to have bigger towels for the beach. Can’t complain about anything, the place was great.
The private bedroom en-suite was clean and comfortable. Super great location for Manuel Antonio. A quick 5 min walk to tons of great restaurants and attractions, and a few steps to the most beautiful beach view. The restaurant staff were fantastic, friendly, and provided great food and company.
