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 KingdomSome things in the room could do with freshening up, but not a great problem. The main thing is that it is clean and it was x
The location was lovely. The grounds were clean and spacious. The proximity to the beach was fab. Staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were of a good size. Contra to reviews that I had read prior to going that gave the food bad reviews, we were very pleasantly surprised that the food was very nice in general. Yes when u have a buffet set up there will be some food standing and if at a hotel for over a week can become very “ samey” , and somethings were. Little strange, however we found that the food was very good with a large selection, I am a fussy eater and could always find plenty to eat. Also the restaurants u can book in advance were very good and enjoyed them. Would have no problem with staying here again. X

United StatesOld property that needs updating/fixing basic things. Quality of food was very basic; desserts had a weird taste, therefore could not eat them (unlike the Royalton in Punta Cana that had real desserts). Even though it was all-inclusive, we did not have access to lemonade. Had to wait in the long line at the bar. The good coffee was also at the bar. The shows were ok, but were held inside the warm theatre vs outdoors.
Ocean front, end unit, various activities.

CanadaInitially no water in the shower - took two days to resolve. Took four hours, two phone calls and two visits to the front desk to gain access to the safe. Then the next day the batteries were flat and again had to wait around an hour to have them replaced. After one clean (day three) the balcony door was left open by the cleaner. The last four days the cleaner did not clean the balcony (bird poo was there in the center). Last three days replacement towels were not given, meaning that I was left with one damp towel for showering. "Do not disturb" sign was removed. Desk was not cleaned for the last several days. Food in the main hall was basic and low quality. Some of the "local" dishes were good (I loved the chicken and pork, tasty sauces and stuffed eggplant), however much of the meat was processed meat, most vegetables were simply boiled. More local dishes would be great.
Location is great given we came for kiteboarding and wing foiling. Privacy of my garden view room and balcony. Mexican, Italian and Fusion restaurants were great. Sadly the discoteck is not used that much as it is a great setup and if more guests would go then I would have spent more time in there.

CanadaOur bathroom. It was very obvious that the staff had just fixed the ceiling from all the rain. Our bathroom smelt of paint. Our AC worked really well when we first arrived and then it wasn’t working. We did not complain about this at the time and I am sure it would have been dealt with immediately. For how many guests the hotel holds, there such be a self serve beer bar other than the one one the dining room that was not working, to decrease the bar line.
Location was perfect, it in walking distance of incredible restaurants, stores, bars.

United StatesThey kept telling us about this VIP breakfast or lunch that they wanted us to attend. When we attended the breakfast, it was the same breakfast I couldve gotten from the kitchen. Was told I would be receiving a gift card for $30 and a gift. Received a beach bag as a gift but when I mentioned the gift card, they said they knew nothing about it. On the beach we were constantly being bombarded by people selling jewelry. It started to feel like we were being harrassed.
The staff was friendly and accommodating. The entertainment was great and appropriate for all ages. The room was clean and spacious.

United StatesThe sales pitches and the staff who are "assigned" to you to get you to buy. They pretend to like you, until you attend the presentation and decline "membership", then they act as if you don't exist. Also, one of the sales managers was pretty much a butthole and that's being generous and polite. Also, the water pressure and temperature are sketchy at best. Never really had "hot" water during my stay.
Decent place, as expected for what I paid. Rooms are okay, the staff I had contact with were all friendly, primarily the main bar area staff. The staff at the Beach Side Restaurant (primarily Jose) were truly outstanding and accommodating on every level. If it wasn't for Jose and the Beach Side crew, this trip would've been a total waste. Over the last 30 plus years I've visited a few Viva destinations and this one is probably my least favorite.
