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 StatesOur apartment was a nice size for the 4 of us. Very clean. But a little dated. The property areas were clean and well maintained. We just wish we’d had a bar we could have had a drink at in the evening. The one at the Crown Residence was poolside and closed at 5pm.
The staff were really attentive and friendly. It was all very clean. The shuttle bus ran regularly which was great. The restaurants were really nice. Especially the Mexican and Brazilian. The food was very good!

Dominican RepublicA member of the staff in the VIP beach asked me to come down of the bed I was at and gave it to another customer when both the customer and staff.member knew the bed was occupied (obviously not by a bag but by A PERSON) This has nothing to do with the hotel I assume selfish people act this way and the employee acted like poncio pilato washing his hands like he couldn't have done it better..
I enjoyed everything! The Room was perfectly neat, so comfortable and spacious, enjoyed the shuttle route bus so much to go to all the other buildings and restaurants made it amazing. There was always time to visit a new place try a new dish, visit another restaurant, all of the pools and pla es within the Lifestyle resort. ILOVED IT.

United StatesThe beach area was disappointing. No chairs to enjoy the water. Beach not ready for even a walk. So small. We did not like having to rely on the shuttle. No walk paths available to get around Disappointing Asian meal in the Asian restaurant
Crown residence and the peace and quiet. Daily restock of beverages. Variety of entertainment offered. The buffets and restaurants that were open was nice. Really enjoyed the Brazilian restaurant.

United StatesThe resort should put larger, clearer signs up warning guests to NOT put TP in the toilets. The signs warning you to put your paper in the trash instead of toilets are very small, easy to miss. So the only real problem at the resort was often toilets backing up and not flushing because of too many people putting in the TP. Also, the ladies room at The Tropical main pool has only three toilets and one of them has no latch for the door. Also hand dryer did not work while we were there. This ladies room is the only one to service the main pool AND ALSO one of the two large Buffet restaurants (Casablanca) AND ALSO the Japanese restaurant Indochine. So all three toilets should be fully functional and there should be towels for hand drying. The only actually hot hot tubs are in the spa, not the hot tubs at the VIP Beach. Those were quite cool! They should be re-labelled "cool off pools" instead of hot tubs probably.
This location is awesome because our party of 5 got two 2-bedroom suites which are cute little apartments. We had four private bedrooms with a king-sized bed in each, two verandas with views of the pool, mini-kitchens, living rooms with flat panel TVs (we virtually never watched them but there were a few channels in English including Cinemax). The bathrooms have walk-in showers, very accessible for the mobility impaired like our 90-year-old dad. The Bellini Italian restaurant is at this location and serves food and beverages ALL DAY. We thought when we first checked in we'd need to go hungry until dinner service began but not at Bellini, we got what they called their "snack" meal and ate delicious breakfasts there most days, lunch a couple of times. Awesome restaurant overlooking our quiet, private little pool on the property. There is more than one pool Just At This Location, and SO MANY great pools throughout the Lifestyle Vacations resort. It was INVALUABLE that there were constantly shuttle buses running to help get 90-year old father-in-law to our various destinations. We got dinner reservations at each of the specialty restaurants and ate at both Buffet restaurants for lunches plus one breakfast. All the restaurants are good. The entertainment options are great fun. Don't miss the dance shows at the Colosseum. Silent Discos are also a blast. Plenty of fun games with prizes to be won happen poolside. The Tropical is the place to go for cool animals. We fed Peacocks and the squirrel monkey named Joe Biden who live there. It's also I think the only pool which had an open swim-up bar. But there are so many great pools and bars nearby all of them. The Spa is also great. There are two. Confusingly they have the same name. The larger Yin Yang Spa is at Cofresi Palm. The smaller Yin Yang Spa is at The Tropical. I booked a massage at The Tropical spa and this grants access to all the spa facilities the duration of your stay.

United StatesThe food was way too repetitive. We literally had the exact same breakfast & lunch everyday because of lack of choices. Most of the meat was shellfish or pork which we do not eat so dinner's pickings were slim too. You guys definitely need more excitement in your food choices. Also for a resort that caters to the international clients, your non-english speaking staff needs more patience. One shuttle driver was super rude because he couldn't understand and even some staff at the restaurants
This place was really nice. The staff was friendly. The room was nice & spacious. It was overall a nice, quiet stay. There was not many activities to do there so we stayed indoors most of the time because we didn't want to be at the beach everyday. The tour & sales pitch was a surprise. Maybe we should have been told ahead of time. We were just called and told that "Alberto" had something for us after breakfast and all he said was he was going to show us around. We ended up on a 2 hour "tour" all the while being persuaded to purchase property. The rain caused the shows to get cancelled every night. Maybe you guys should consider a covered space. Rouse at the reception was super nice and Maribel the room attendant as well
