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 were SO MANY mosquitoes in our room!! I don’t know if they were somehow coming up through the drain or if they got in when housekeeping came every day, but I LITERALLY killed 17 in a single hour and was constantly finding more. It made relaxing in our otherwise beautiful room very difficult.
This is a lovely hotel that matches the pictures. The pool is beautiful, and it's nice to have a bar on site. It's across the street from a fantastic Mexican restaurant and a supermarket, as well as a 5 min walk to the main strip where the beach and all the nightlife are. The front desk staff are incredibly lovely and helpful, and the beds are very comfortable.

United StatesBring bug spray for the mosquitos in the morning and afternoon.
The room was very comfortable, we enjoyed the attached patio. We cooled off in the pool a couple of times a day! Hotel is very close to the heart of the action, but still like you are in an oasis because of the garden-like grounds.

United KingdomBreakfast poor, portions laughable on the ‘continental breakfast’ - one sausage cut in half + 1 small potato cut into 3 and 2 eggs, honestly thought they were playing a joke on us …but turns out that’s what they offered … the burritos were much better in size and taste however Room cleaned daily however stayed for 8 nights and only had bed changed once ok the last night… with the suncream and hot weather + significant number of ants that appeared over the day via the bathroom we felt it definitely needed changing much earlier, to be honest this would have made the stay much better.
Lovely area, so close of the beach, Staff kind and helpful.

CanadaRoom was a bit dated, bathroom was very small. Could use some additional hooks for hanging towels/clothes to dry.
The property is a lovely little oasis within the bustling town of Tamarindo. Loved the pool area, bar/restaurant were decent. Bed/pillow very comfortable. Each room had a nice outdoor sitting area. Very close walk to the beach, great location in town.

CanadaFriendly staff, great location, walking distance to everything. Excellent breakfast included. They offer discounted prices on tours compared to prices in town, and I enjoyed the Snorkle & Kayak tour. They also have a partner restaurant called Ocean right by the beach where you get 20% off during your stay. Overall, an awesome experience!
