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 StatesThis was a beautiful resort. The staff was extremely accommodating and friendly. There are 17km of trails here. We went for a 2 hour hike and managed to see 3 of their waterfalls. The room we were in had no AC, but overnight was deliciously cool in the room. The daytime was a little warm in there though. The grounds are stunning. They have a greenhouse , goats, chickens. Just amazing.

United KingdomThe hotel was quite expensive and you are paying for the uniqueness which like others have said is starting to look tired. We had and evening meal which was acceptable but if a choice was available I’d eat elsewhere
The uniqueness of this hotel is what made this standout. The staff were extremely welcoming and the room was amazing as were the grounds. The design and architecture is great. We walked the grounds and waterfalls and spent some time in the evening and the next morning in the sunset pool. Others have said about lack of other entertainment but with the pool, trails, views and waterfalls I’m not sure what else is needed. Perfect end to our holiday with easy access to the airport the following morning.

United StatesNo communal activity area,. It is restaurant or nothing in main building. Facility quite tired looking. Pools closed or require a good deal of maintenance, missing tiles everywhere. Lots of noise - directly under flight path. We didn’t mind but be aware, no bar area, no televisions apart for small shared TV room beside restaurant.
Excellent food and good value for money. Lovely staff. Set in beautiful area. Forest walks and nature spoiled by noise from planes flying across facility from very early morning around 3-4 per hour.

United StatesIt is time for some updating. The robe and towels were worn. The on-site vegetable garden was not being maintained. The golf cart (to rooms) was broken. The hot tub was turned off well before the pool closed. There was a barking dog; the sound carried to the room.
The room was spacious and clean. The views were distant city were sweeping. The property was near the airport, but a world away from the traffic and crowding. The staff were friendly and kind. The shampoo and conditioner had a lovely smell.

United KingdomThe tiling in the bathroom is looking tired and need maintenance and a good clean. No air conditioning in the bedroom. If there was a mosquito screen on the door then we could have left the door open to keep the temperature down.
Stylish, spacious bedroom with super king bed, fridge and a large patio area with sun beds and table and chair overlooking gardens and San Jose in the distance. We loved the sunset pool too. Also the trails in the hotel grounds which would have been fantastic but were mainly closed for us due to waterlogged ground following weeks of heavy rain.

United StatesThe fact that we only stayed one night. We could have added a night and made it a base for Poas volcano, La Paz waterfall and Hacienda Alsacia Starbucks Coffee Farm (don’t miss).
Best place for us in Costa Rica. What a magnificent oasis just 30 minutes from the airport. Great views with San Jose lights at night, incredible villas for the price, the trail around the property rewards you with waterfalls (see pic). Our family of four booked a Star Villa and a Prima Villa with Queen beds. Both weee great, especially the Star Villa which had an expansive living room and balcony area with a stunning view

United KingdomUnfortunately our stay was dampened by the poor weather (didn't stop raining for 3 days) meaning that we were not able to make the most of the facilities on offer. The rooms could do with bedside tables on either side of the bed.
The location, close to the airport and town but far enough to be able to enjoy a relaxing stay with great views. The room was very spacious with a nice large terrace. Complimentary drinks and snacks in the mini bar was a nice surprise. beautiful gardens sadly wasn't able to make the most of the trails and pools as the weather was poor.
