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 really enjoyed my stay and the staff made it a relaxing experience who were kind and always smiling. I come for diving which is ideally situated next door along with laundromat. The property is situated beach front with good views and relaxed atmosphere. A bar and good food and lively activities can be found on the night. The rooms are cozy with comfy and clean dorm beds which are fully curtained for privacy. Just make sure entrance from the back at high tide. Thanks for the pleasure. :)

Verified reviewPlease see review from 11th-15th July booking as this is the one that the bed bugs issue refers to!!!! 8-11 I actually stayed in outpost coron and it was amazing! The staff were genuine and friendly and the room was lovely and clean. The food wasn’t so good here but it didn’t matter as the atmosphere was awesome! Both male and female Jay are a credit to your business. The other staff were awesome too but these guys went the extra mile! Look after them!

Verified reviewThe other solo travellers
I had know hot water, then when they fixed it, it still wasn’t hot. The aircon was switched on for us and they took the remote so we are unable to change the temperature! Biggest problem is the Bed Bugs….. I always check mattresses even in hotels….. the mattress colour made it difficult to see anything and I thought it was ok…. However I was wrong. I went on a tour and spoke to 5 other people on the same trip and they had all gotten bed bugs too! I was given a key to my room but a sign saying don’t lock as the locks were new!!! Literally 2 keys for a 4 person dorm. Lastly I have to say that I felt all the staff memebers were really unhappy and it felt very fake and forced when they interacted with guests! I would not return here!!! Not clean, food was mediocre at best and not enough vegan/ vegetarian options including a milk alternative!

Verified reviewHonestly everything. Each night was well planned and I had lots of fun! I came in the off-season so you got to know everybody! Beds are soooo comfy
Prices are of course high for the Philippines, but that's an El Nido issue, not an outpost issue.

Showers were not always hot

Verified reviewStaff members are always there to help and they smile no matter what. It's a 45 minute walk from downtown, where the harbour and the main places are, but it's okay, otherwise you just pay a tuk tuk, they have a nice view, they offer tours and they have themed nights every evening.
Bathrooms and the shower areas weren't clean, they don't clean the inside of the rooms, not every guest has good manners to leave their shoes outside, therefore everyday it's dirty inside. Rooms smell a bit bad, food is good, but they serve small portions for what they charge.

Verified reviewGood location for sunset, well designed bar and common areas for appreciating the sunset, many trikes waiting outside the steps to take you into town, shower was decent
wifi did not work in the room, room was a little small for two people with luggage, steps down to beach/entrance is a bit difficult with luggage

Verified reviewThe friendly staff, the view from the hotel.
If you are not a party person, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel. It wasn’t our vibe at the moment. Also, we found the common area a bit dirty, but then again it’s on the beach. But overall it’s nice.

Verified reviewAmazing atmosphere and beautiful view! Everything is organised, clean and with a positive vibe. Unfortunately I cant remember the receptionist names but they are lovely. They welcomed very well… they called me for my name, they gave recommendations and a beautiful smile when I walked in. I’ve been travelling all Phillipines and so far it was the best place that I stayed. I booked a night and I ended up staying there 3 nights. $50pesos tuk tuk from town… 24hrs available. I had a very yum eggs Benedict and cappuccino. They play nice tunes and games at dinner time. The place is good to meet travellers. Perfect wifi connection. Fresh towel and sheets. Air co works perfectly. I stayed during the wet season and even I wasn’t able to go the beach I had so much fun. I highly recommend if you stay there… please tell them Fern miss them.
