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...).

United KingdomTo be fair- in DR and price quality, you get what you pay for and it was our best stay in DR. The only thing would be providing more info about what is available while at las Galeras: main touristic sites, list of tours agencies, local transport, transport to the city, emergency lines, etc. I mean Lê BDM is not a tourist agency but since they work in the sector and are from the area they would be best placed to give advice.
The size of the room and own patio-garden. Big comfortable bed, fans, able to ventilate and let natural light in and still have privacy because of the garden plants blocking the view from passers-by. The restaurant is a must and in all honesty, one of the best we experienced in DR. The quality of the food and main product is noticeable. Side note:no one will force you or look at you funny if you don’t feel like having a go at their restaurant. I however, recommend their cocktails for a treat, very nice drinks too. Last, it’s great to see the owners there. They will check on you and make sure that you are okay. Very friendly and open people, hard-working and flexible - they will give you options, verbal advice, take time to explain things. It’s just the kind of attitude that makes you feel safe and welcomed. The rest of the staff were lovely and very professional too.

SwitzerlandThere's only a fan in the room. For us it was okay because it wasn't too hot.
The staff is amazing and super friendly! We loved to stay there. Food is absolutely delicious 😋 The room is good, they even give you shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. They check / clean the room daily. The breakfast tastes good. The location is good for Las Galeras quite close to the beach.

NetherlandsBonjour!! We stayed at this place for one week and we really loved it. The room was very clean, big and we even had our own little garden and hammock. Sabine and her partner are really sweet and helped us with several questions we had on where to visit. Also the staff was very kind and the breakfast was delicious. Las Galeras is also a very good place to stay and explore Samana. It has a beach which you can walk to and all nice restaurants. We felt also very safe in Las Galeras, even at night. The restaurant from BDM is very good. They serve delicious food! They also have a great pool and private parking for your car. The wifi was also good and you have a clean room everyday! We really enjoyed our stay!! And recommend this to everyone who wants to explore more of the Dominican Republic!

RomaniaCongrats to Ulrich for being such a host! He gave us plenty of information on what to visit and how to get to various sightseeing locations. The hotel is pretty close to the Las Galeras beach as well to the beautiful Playita beach. Next to the hotel there's a groceries store (if you like mango, watermelon). Whe the power went off in the village, luckily the property had its own generator as well as its own water pump. Rooms also had terraces with a nice view over the garden and pool.

United KingdomThe local motorbikes at night. You can hear these loud motorbikes as Le BDM is close to the main rd. Saying that we just hear them til early night or we were too tired every day that we fall asleep between 10.30 and 11.30 until following day.
It's a beautiful place with a nice clean pool. Music in the bar was great, not too loud, I think they have taken into account the previous reviews. There is no loud music to disturb your sleep. Restaurant is the best in the area. Excellent food. I highly recommend it, same as the cocktails. I wish I could eat more here, but we were already over a week in Dom Rep earing every meal out.

United StatesExtremely noisy until 11:30pm because of the bar there, even though quiet hours supposedly start at 10am. Mosquito nets on windows were broken. The communication with the hotel was pretty bad, payment in advance by western Union was complicated and the staff did not speak good Spanish or English.
At least they refund 2 nights as we could not sleep in our rooms because of the noise and had to leave early.
