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.).

BelgiumStaying at the newly renovated DBP was incredible. We were welcomed to a private part of the island by Marcus, the owner—warm, gentle, and genuinely attentive—who made sure our stay exceeded expectations. It happened to be my wife’s birthday, and Marcus and his local team went out of their way to make it unforgettable. Bonus points for DBP’s eco-friendly vision and passion. And the unbelievable wow factor? Kayaking through the bay alongside pods of dolphins—pure magic for any nature lover!

ItalyWe chose this location because we wanted to enjoy the tranquility of the sea and live in the midst of nature. Thanks to the location, as well as the owners and the service staff, we achieved our goal. The place is splendid; in the morning and evening, we could see dolphins dancing not far from the shore. The restaurant delighted us every day with different and excellent dishes. The name of the location corresponds perfectly to the place. Well done to everyone, and we hope to return soon. We were offered boat excursions to visit the nearby islands, which were splendid. For the first of these excursions, the restaurant prepared a fantastic packed lunch for us, and once we arrived on the island, the captain set up a table and chairs on the beach. Then, with a machete, they opened coconuts and served fresh drinks – it was fantastic. The island was deserted for several hours, just as the owner had announced, and we took advantage of this wonderful opportunity to explore it completely. Thank you again for this experience.

The owners and managers made us feel so welcome, like family. We were able to kayak each day and we loved seeing the wildlife, monkeys, sloths and of course dolphins. The resort is in a beautiful bay with lovely views. The meals were delicious.

United KingdomLeaving!
This place is stunning. Our room had a balcony overlooking the bay which we could watch for hours, you might spot dolphins! Right from the start Feder and Remo couldn’t do enough for you, extremely helpful with anything you need, days out, boat trips etc. Every single meal is amazing, it’s all fresh produce from their garden or local and you can really tell, I think they should do a recipe book because I’d buy it! The surrounding grounds are beautiful, the trees and palms are stunning and bring in wonderful birds. If you feel this is too quiet one day Bocas is only 30 mins by boat and any day trips are available. We’d love to come back one day, it’s a bit of paradise. Thank you Remo, Feder, Yu and Marcus.

FranceThe devil chikras/mosquitos but nothing to do with the hotel, they are everywhere. And if you are looking for parties/bar options (which was not our case), this is not the right place as you are 30 min from Bocas by boat only😉
The Dolphin Blue Paradise is already a very beautiful place, but thanks to the managers Remo and Federico, it becomes an amazing stay. This young couple is the nicest hosts we’ve ever had and they do everything to make your stay unforgettable. They cook, take you on tour and manage the property as if you were part of their family, which we felt like. Thank you Remo and Federico☀️🧡

A big thank you to Federico and Josephine for their incredible welcome and their kindness! We had a memorable stay, despite the bad weather, they took care of us and above all... they cook divinely well. We particularly appreciated the fact that the products used for cooking came directly from the garden or from local producers, as well as the homemade bread prepared for breakfast! The place is beautiful, view on the bay, you can borrow a paddle or a Kayak to go around and meet the dolphins! In short, the Dolphin is a real paradise as much for its location as for its beauty and hospitality!

FranceWe stayed 6 days at Dolphin Blue Paradise, and paradise it was! We had such a peaceful and relaxing stay. Yuh, Remo and Fede were the kindest hosts, available at all times and giving us all the attention we needed and we really enjoyed being able to talk with them so much. Dolphin Blue Paradise is a beautiful place, isolated with the jungle behind, dolphins and sloths nearby, and only a boat ride away from turquoise waters, starfish and tropical birds. Grab a paddle or a kayak in the early morning and slide on the smooth surface of the water before the sun gets up, it’s fantastic. The food was just as good. Every breakfast and dinner is homemade with local products (fish, eggs, fruits etc), every day new original recipes. We couldn’t recommend it enough and definitely want to come back again!

SpainIt’s a quite isolated place, so you won’t have all the freedom of movement to have dinner somewhere else, for instance. But it’s part of the price to stay in Boca’s paradise!
Peaceful and relaxing spot in Bocas del Toro, it’s such a beautiful place surrounded by the rainforest. Marcus and Yu were helpful throughout all our stay, we felt so confortable. The food is excellent, getting the best of the local produce. A bonus: you can see so much wildlife, we could see sloths, dolphins, starfish or stickrays in there!
