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 StatesEverything was perfect. I couldn't pick out a negative thing to say if I tried. Great staff, great location, all so friendly. We were genuinely sad to leave this place when it was time to return home.
We loved literally everything about Mawimbi. The people at the front desk made life so easy by making reservations around the island for us, scheduling a taxi as needed, and being extremely friendly. Likewise, the rest of the staff was so nice. Never in our lives have we truly felt like we were at home while being on vacation. The staff felt like real friends to us, gave us suggestions on how to enjoy our vacation, and consistently made sure we were having a good times. You truly cannot go wrong by staying at Mawimbi. Additionally, the rooms have great A/C, direct beach access, on-site restaurant, and you're just far enough away from the clubs for things to be tranquil and quiet, yet close enough that a 3 minute walk gets you where the parties are at if you're into that.

Paradise - we got to experience incredible island life with incredible views, food, facilities and most importantly people. Cannot rate our Mawimbi experience any better, we will be back! All staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Vibe is perfect for laidback people who can appreciate this unique hotel, which has the best beach access on the island, sabroso comida and fun, attentive service!

United StatesThe beach water out front was a bit funky. This is because it's right at the center of town and I think there is runoff from the local businesses. This is not the hotels fault.
We LOVED the beach club area. It was the prettiest one around. It's next to casa Tortuga's and their beach was crowded and small, definitely not as pretty. There were plenty of beach beds that were comfortable and well maintained.

GermanyHonestly this is one of the best hotels we ever stayed in. First and foremost, the amazing and friendly staff has to be pointed out. But secondly, the location, the beach, the room, the facilities... Everything is just perfect. It literally feels like living in a movie scene. From comfortable sun beds to a bonfire at the beach during sunset, this hotel has it all. Even though we love trying out new restaurants, we only ate in the hotel restaurant the entire stay because it was that good. Peak time is in the morning, when beach club visitors are not yet there and the beach is empty. We will surely come back and have recommended this place to every other Mexico traveller we met so far!

United KingdomThere was nothing not to like
The hotel is fantastic!! The photos you see are exactly how it appears and the staff are SO warm and friendly. It is small and boutique and not overcrowded. We were staying here as an extra day added on before going to Casa las tortugas next door. While Casa las tortugas is pricier, Mawimbi was definitely the premier hotel in our view. The experience was much more personal, less crowded, better food and service, better day beds and lounge facilities. If I’d have known how nice it would be we would have stayed the whole time. Choose this one over Tortugas if picking. We intend on coming back!! Stay was perfection, thank you hotel Mawimbe!

United KingdomNothing to say here. Being picky - maybe a few more hooks in the room (we had the cheapest) as there isn't anywhere outside to hang things to dry. My husband would've liked to have made tea in the room.
The location was breathtaking. The ambiance was rustic but chic and the details were very much appreciated and the vibe beautiful. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Food was outstanding and we ended up eating in more than we would do ordinarily. We would definitely like to return.

United KingdomWe were asked to pay a deposit via PayPal, and since this isn’t really a cheap hotel, it all felt a bit weird and dodgy at first. Mostly because I’ve never been asked that by a hotel before.
What a great place! We spent 3-4 days here and never really found a reason to leave the hotel grounds. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner on the beach is just so nice! This is not a giant hotel, so there’s limited amount of other guests, which makes it almost feel like you’re in your private hotel. The rooms were insanely nice, comfortable, and well decorated.
