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 reviewI liked the room and the pools. Riuland was really nice for the kids.
The food, we were intoxicated, we don’t know if it happened because of something we ate. It was after 2 days of stay. On the other hand, it hadn’t much variety after some days there you don’t know what to eat. The food in the thematic restaurants is very similar to the one in the main buffet. In the middle of our stage they charged us an extra cost because they said the ages of the kids were not being informed properly by Booking, and both of my kids appeared as babies. I remembered putting the ages right in the app when I booked the property. We assumed the consequences of someone else’s mistake. We chose the hotel because it was cheaper comparing we others of the same punctuation, but we ended paying maybe more.

Verified reviewThe pools
So many things I didn’t like and that is the reason why I won’t go back here. I decide to book this place since I wanted to travel with my family my from my point is not 100% for families. - they children’s pool is so far from adults pool - They might provide more frequency of transportation to the beach. They use only one car from 8 am to 6pm. So, it is almost impossible to go dinner to another RIU Yucatan. - The beach is a bit far - Is not allowed to ask towels in Riu Yucatán if you’re staying in Riu tequila. So, basically if you forget to ask in Riu tequila you’ll have to go back and it will take about 20-25 minutes walking - They don’t help you with your luggage if you’re taking a taxi to leave - There are many black birds eating fruits in a restaurant which seems to be a bit dangerous for health - The hotel looks a bit old. They should make an update

Verified reviewGreat location, lots to do at the resort itself. Loves having beach access and being able to go to the other pools etc. rooms are spacious with big balconies. Very easy to get a taxi from and going into the town is quick and easy. Great breakfast!
Room was a bit dingy, like very worn in so there were stains on the walls etc. beds were Cindy but it was only sheets they have on it- you absolutely needed the extra heavier blankets. Food and drinks were meh at best - we ended up eating in town a lot bc the food at the hotel was bland. Definitely ask for the better liquors offered in place of the well liquors they use for Marga pins coladas etc
