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 StatesThere was no place comfortable to sit in the shade by the sea Our poolside room had very meager fittings for eating - had to sit on the couch I’d prefer a window or sliding door with screens to bring locked in with only AC Fir a five resort there were no hoses available near the rooms for rinsing snorkel gear or bathing suits
It was clean and convenient for snorkeling

United StatesFor it's purpose, there's nothing to not like!
We've stayed at Captain Don's Habitat many times over the years. But note, this exists mostly for Scuba divers and serious snorkelers. They operate several dive boats throughout the day, and the dive team is first class! For those purposes, it is excellent. Great breakfasts, lunches, and superb dinners, so you don't need to head into Bonaire town for anything, but if you do, it's about 15 minutes away by car/taxi. The staff are helpful and responsive.

United StatesThe one restaurant was expensive!
Location, quiet pool location with many large umbrellas for sun protection just steps from our room. Grocery store was a short 5-8 minute walk away. Staff was very friendly. The diving was excellent! Great staff and dive leaders. Nice small dive groups and great access to house reef which was great!

GermanyThe RumRunners restaurant is very good in upmarket expensive high quality food and drinks. However, it’s a little mismatch to the kind of easy going less posh more down to earth divers staying at the hotel.
Beautiful location directly at the sea with very nice well maintained gardens. Diving either directly from the dock or from one of many boats in dive sites nearby.

United StatesThere wasn't anything we didn't like. It was a really great operation.
Everything was fantastic, from the room to the dive operations - we really had a great time. Their dive staff were really awesome. I especially like how they do several single tank boat dives a day. You simply sign up on the marker board for which boats you want to go out on. You can also just grab some tanks and head out on a shore dive whenever you want. Would definitely recommend.

United StatesOur room was right next to the dive shop and was in need of updating. However, we had been upgraded to an oceanfront room for free, and we would most likely have had a renovated room if we’d staying in the garden view room we originally booked. So it was a trade-off.
The staff was very helpful and accommodating. The location is good and of course the diving operation offers unparalleled freedom. The house reef was worthwhile. The restaurant was tasty and the staff there was super pleasant as well.
