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.).

The staff were really nice and accommodating. The property was extremely clean!! Everywhere!! The food was amazing, I absolutely loved the variety and the different choices of restaurants located right on the property. The pool entertainment was the high light. The drinks and food on demand was like room service outside of your room. I would definitely return!! Best vacation I’ve had in a longtime. I didn’t wanna leave lol

GermanyJust a lot of seaweed in that area of the beach this time of year. Not the hotel's fault, they do their best to clear it out periodically. Just mostly for awareness if you plan on going in July. Allegedly, the beach gets much nicer in August.
The hotel was spotlessly clean, and the staff was incredibly friendly. We didn't get the elite club options, but the standard fare was more than enough for us. All of the options for dinner were great, especially if you prefer to eat earlier dinners - you can avoid the wait. The pools are nice and warm and also not very deep. Evening shows and events are varied and a lot of fun. There's a lot of variety across the acts. The location is a great spot to take day trips from, too. You'll have no issues getting taxis to and from the main areas of Cancun or pickup sites for a lot of tours. It's also really close to La Isla shopping center and other entertainment. The view was gorgeous. Even though there was some seaweed for this time of year, the beach cleared up after a couple of days. It would have been perfect if the beach area was more like Playa Norte at Isla Mujeres, but that's a short day trip and easy to find a nice beach day if you really want to see clea waters. Overall, we had an amazing stay.
