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 StatesNothing! Everything was great! I did request they shut the garden lights off at night. The rooms were a little too bright for me so I slept with a mask. I liked the upstairs bedroom but it had a large window up high where a lot of light came in. So, I changed rooms. But, staff were always so helpful! I’d go there again in a heartbeat!!
The homemade breakfasts provided by Laura MADE OUR STAY EXCEPTIONAL! The staff were fantastic, friendly, helpful but we really had a special connection with Laura! She was always so kind and her breakfasts were absolutely fantastic! We appreciated even the small things - the extra hooks in the room, the umbrellas and chairs to take to the beach, the fresh water outside shower, the foot pool! We adored the cat we called “Mr Mittens”. He was so friendly and lovable! The pool was cleaned daily and was a wonderful addition to cool off when you didn’t want to go to the beach.

United KingdomThe breakfast was expensive at fifteen dollars - the most expensive we had in Costa Rica! But there are lots of bakeries and breakfast eateries very close by, so don't let that put you off. A kettle in the room would have been nice. Tamarindo is a party town, and we could hear the music from bars and clubs in the evening (we were offered earplugs), but this didn't disturb my sleep. If you are a light sleeper and go to bed early, you might chose a hotel more out of the centre of town.
The staff were really helpful and friendly, and we felt really welcome. There was a nice courtyard with a pool, and the downstairs rooms have a little outdoor space linked to the pool. There was free coffee in the morning, and free ice and drinking water all the time. We had a fridge in the room which was was nice. There were safes in the rooms. Bed were comfy and everything was very clean, decor was modern and felt personal. Breakfast was tasty traditional Costa Rican style (gallo pinto and fruit, or omelettes). The location is good, if you want to be central - next door to a park which has a Saturday market, one block from the beach, loads of good cafes and restaurants around. All around a good budget option.

Switzerlandnothing to say, good value for money.
The rooms are simply designed but very clean. The terrace where breakfast is served is spacious. The children loved the pool. Breakfast is very good and varies every day. The hotel is perfectly located, the beach is 5 minutes away, and you can park your car directly in the hotel courtyard.

United KingdomThere was nothing not to like.
Clean, friendly staff, lovely pool, comfortable beds, good breakfast…… we really enjoyed our stay here for three nights and were upgraded to a room by the pool on our arrival as it was not high season and one was available. We also left behind some documents and the hotel helped us with this. Very grateful and would stay again should I visit Tamarindo in the future.

United StatesWe had a fantastic stay at Ten North Hotel in the heart of Tamarindo. The location is perfect—just a 5-minute walk to the beach and right in the vibrant city center, making it easy to explore everything the town has to offer. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and spotless, with the added bonus of being poolside. It was great to start the day with a refreshing swim and, in the evening, relax by the pool with a cold ginger ale in hand. Breakfast was delicious, but what truly made our stay special was the hospitality of Juan and Karol—they went above and beyond to share their local tips and recommendations. Such wonderful people! We highly recommend Ten North Hotel for anyone visiting Tamarindo. Looking forward to coming back!
