How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe property feels very welcoming with a lot of comfortable spaces in- and out-doors that invite to rest and enjoy. It's also in walking distance from the beach which was not relevant for us on this trip but we did enjoy the refreshment in the little pool. The offer for additional drinks, snacks and breakfast items is convenient, there don't seem to be many grocery options around.
The 100% autonomous check-in was somewhat confusing. We spent about 10min sitting in front of the main-door looking for the entrance code between confirmation and information we received from Booking.com and the property's own Concierge service (on two different e-mail accounts and the app...). We also hesitated several times holding doors open before being assured that we'll not lock us out... Some more detailed information about this would have been helpful (like: you only need the entrance code once, after that you can use the keys you'll find....).

Verified reviewBreakfast was great, self service with good choice. 8 min walk to the beach at the quieter end of Rincon, walk back in the heat was hard but a cooling drink and refreshing pool made it worthwhile. Rooms were lovely and cool with efficient aircon

Verified reviewI can't begin to tell how much I loved staying at this place. The owners Marcela and Antonio are absolute gems and I think about them often, even after my stay. The place is beautiful and also warm in winter. It's a bit of a walk (10-ish) to the village center, but that was fine for me. The beds were so comfortable. I felt very good here.
I'm sure it was in the ad and I should have read better, but I missed a little kitchen to cook my own dinner. There are some utilities to use though, like knives, a micro wave, coffee machine, water boiler etc. At the time I was there, there was only one other resident, but Marcela and Antonio made up for that completely!

Verified reviewLovely, relaxing and nurturing place to stay, with wonderfully warm and welcoming staff. Absolutely does feel like a home from home 9I'm going back for my fourth visit, in a few weeks!). Tranquil garden and pool area - you can really find headspace, calm and down-time here. Good for solo, friends or couples and I've met lovely people whilst staying here. Particularly like that it's about 8 min walk from the beach and the supermarket (Mercadona) and there's a bus stop end of road, No car needed if you are looking for a chilled out break, and there's a great bus service to Malaga - 45 mins away, less than 2 Euros. Also for trips along the coast, but you need a car if you want to go to the mountains.
Nada.

Verified reviewWe had a lovely stay for a recent wedding we attended in the area. Marcela was very welcoming and helpful booking us various taxis throughout our stay. The rooms were big enough for 2 of us to be comfortable. We didn't make use of the pool on-site, but we did visit the beach and some of the restaurants along the coast. Would stay again!
Wasn't the most picturesque walk down to the coast, but it was pretty straightforward to get there and took about 8 minutes.

Verified reviewAbsolutely serenity, beautiful garden with pool... complete with grapevine trellis... thoughtful and skillfully designed interior... like an artistic salon, with a beautifully large coffee table and an impressive collection of books. I was wonderfully.impressed to find an Isabel Allende novel placed in my room! The whole place had a feeling of 4 star plus luxury...a unique and nurturing place to stay.
I cannot fault this place.

Verified reviewMarcela and her staff were friendly and professional and available to help with any requests . The rooms are spacious and pleasant . The shared interior living and breakfast spaces are comfortable. Breakfast is ample with fresh fruit, bread, hard boiled eggs, cheese, tomatoes and arugula, coffee, tea, and fresh squeezed OJ. We took our breakfast outside to eat in beautiful front yard or the back patio with pool. The location is great. We walked to town and the beach. And took the bus to Malaga several times. We also found no problem with parking our rental car on the street in front of the property.
That we had to leave after 9 days.

Verified reviewLovely garden and house. It felt cosy and welcoming so it was very relaxing. The host, Marcela, is the perfect host, laid back but helpful if you need anything. The little spots in the garden and perfect for reading, lounging, working, etc. It’s an easy walk down to the beach, restaurants and town shops.
