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 reviewThe grounds are particularly beautiful especially the plants and flowers. Everything is very clean and exceptionally well maintained. The two pool areas are beautiful. Also, the staff is very helpful and friendly.
I wish the beds were king size or at least queen size.

Verified reviewI had not read any reviews for Casas del Toro before arriving at the place, so I was very pleasantly surprised with what I found. Nice, stylish, comfty accomodation very close to Potrero and Flamingo (the beaches I visited), supermarkets, the Flamingo Marina, and so on. Mediterranean-style complex, with very comfty rooms (coffee maker included). 100% recommended!
Nothing in particular

Verified reviewWonderful location. The different areas are beautifully decorated and well kept. The breakfast is great too. The rooms are large and comfortable. Beds are comfy. The reception staff was always helpful and gave us all the information we needed. I fully recommend this place!
Some minor details that wouldn't keep me from booking this hotel again, as they are easily fixed: 1. The showerhead could be improved. 2. The bathroom mirror light did not work. Shower was very dark, even with the lights on. 3. We had some trouble closing the bathroom door.

Verified reviewWe loved staying here! It's in a quiet and natural setting with beautiful greenery throughout the property. It's a relaxing retreat as it is secluded in a wonderful way. The sound of birds and the soft music in the restaurant area gave a tranquil experience. The food was very good. All the staff are warm and friendly, from the reception area to the restaurant to housekeeping and landscaping. They all keep the rooms, grounds and pools immaculate. They all give excellent and prompt service at all times, especially Roger and Griselda. We look forward to staying here again!
Can't think of one thing we didn't like!
It was such a pleasure having you here! I'm thrilled to know you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the natural beauty surrounding the hotel. We put a lot of care into every detail, and it means a lot that you appreciated it.

Verified reviewThe house was so beautiful and clean. Most staff were great and very kind. The location is perfect, super close to the beach and other amenities. There are two medium-sized pools, and it's a very calm and relaxing environment. It seems like it's more of an adult friendly complex because of how quiet it is, but we brought two kids, and they enjoyed their time!
We rented the large house for 3 nights for a family of 7. The ad said it's an air-conditioned home, yet it wasn't. Only the bedrooms had air conditioners, which is great. However, the main entrance, kitchen, dining room, and living room had no air conditioner, which was so hard to make our experience enjoyable. We cooked, hung out, and ate in 36C heat, and it was almost unbearable. We requested some portable fans, and they gave us 2 extra ones, and it helped, but it wasn't enough. For the price we paid for 3 nights, you would expect to have an actual air-conditioned home in Guanacaste to go cool down after being at the beach...
