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 is nothing we disliked.
Barbara and Evan, owners of the property, were very informative and accommodating. The staff were truly kind and helpful when we needed anything. The room we booked was the one bedroom deluxe suite ocean front- named the “Namaste”. It had a full kitchen, dining area, and spacious living room. There were two full baths; one in the bedroom. The bedroom was very spacious and the suite itself was large for my husband and I. From the bedroom, there is a door that leads to the balcony and the balcony can be accessed through double doors from the living room which overlooks the ocean.

CanadaThe only thing that was inconvenient was the distance to pull your luggage to get to your room but you only need to do it twice on your vacation but they do have a service to retrieve it for you and were happy to do it.
Location was good, close to most things you would like for a relaxing vacation, bed was comfortable and the room was clean. Continental breakfast was a nice touch in the morning. Staffing was very pleasant.

United StatesI cannot think.of anyway it could have been better.
The pictures and reviews really do not capture how remarkable this place, the hosts and staff are. This was my 15th trip to Belize so I have stayed at many places. This was by far the best and only place I will staying from here on. I already reserved for next year. The suite was perfect with a huge jacuzzi tub and very large private sitting area with hammocks and chairs looking out to the blue ocean. Two sets of french doors lead to the balcony. The location is right off the main sidewalk and yards from the sandy beach. Despite how close it is to everything, it is very quiet and peaceful. No need for a car-everything is here! No need to bring a lot because everything is right in your suite. Every time I thought of something I wanted from bandaids to brooms to luxurious robes I found them right in my suite. I only got breakfast once because I left early every day for different activities. They will gladly deliver it to your room. So kind, welcoming and ready to help any time. The place is immaculately clean and unlike any place I have ever stayed in Belize, always plenty of hot water and great water pressure. There is no detail they left out. I cannot wait to return to this heaven on earth place.

United StatesWe loved the beachfront location and it was easy to walk to restaurants, stores, and tour operators. While the property had bikes available, we didn't need to use them. Also, no need to rent a car and if you do rent a car, note that there isn't parking at the property, you will still have to walk from parking. We flew Tropic Air from Belize City and it was worth it. Plus, the property offers free pick up and drop off at the Placencia airport. This is a small, family owned and operated property. The staff are all very friendly and accommodating. With only 5 units available, it was quiet with a laid back feel and you never feel crowded. The beach was well maintained and beautiful. There were lounge chairs, tables, kayaks and paddle boards to use at no cost. They also provide beach towels, so no need to pack them. Our unit was on the second floor, which was named Namaste. It had a full kitchen and 2 full baths, which was more than the 2 of us needed but was nice to have. We had a large balcony with 4 chairs, 2 foot rests and 2 hammocks. We loved napping in the hammocks. The team offers breakfast daily on the rooftop terrace. While it is pretty simple, it is a nice offering to get your day started. If you have an early outing or it is raining, they will bring breakfast to your room. Overall, we felt it was a great location and experience for the price. We would definitely visit again.

United StatesLots of walking, if your mobility is limited this could be a challenge for you. Secure parking is a block or two in one direction, the inn is 2 or 3 blocks down a sidewalk. They were great about hauling our luggage, but it was a 10-15 walk to the better restaurants.
Very clean, and wow, what a nice bit of beach almost to ourselves. A very solid building, no sounds from the other units. The air conditioner worked well, though the sea breeze was quite cooling most of the time. Thoughtfully equipped, just enough stuff in the kitchen to make life easy. Great restaurants nearby, you get a real 'beach vibe' from the whole area.
