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 reviewNice venue, very well arrange. Palm trees and other plants providing some freshness. Staff very kind throughout the whole journey, allowing us to have breakfast on arrival early morning despite the check-in time. All the elements of the compound well displayed, the beach close to the room, and with good sun shaders and loungers
Noise (Said to be music) everyday, too loud, directed to everywhere, aimed for the gymn or hydro-gymn fans, but heard loud even on the beach, eventually on other islands!? That noise was daily till midnight, one day till 1 am!? It was heard even behind the double glazing of our room and with ear plugs! We were in room 1037, far from all those source of "pleasures" ... Doesn't the price pays some quietness and the chance to start resting at 10 or 11 pm? We strongly recommend persons willing to have some rest, not to go to this place. Why that wild and rough full disregard and disrespect to those guests that really would like to rest, instead of spending a week on an open skies discotheque or a military unit? Actually not a very clean unit: everyday we had the visit of several cockroaches! The food was average. For the price ... We never had loin, strip loin, tender loin, beef and pork meat were normally hard to cut with straight edge knives, so we don't understand the issue of providing, by default, serrated edge knives. Even begging for such a normal tool, only once we had it, yet after waiting too long.
Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback about your recent stay with us. We truly appreciate you recognizing our team’s kindness, the welcoming atmosphere upon your early arrival, and the natural beauty of our venue. It is always rewarding to hear when our staff’s efforts contribute positively to a guest’s experience. We are, however, deeply sorry to learn that certain aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconveniences. In terms of the aspect of quietness, we recognize its subjective nature, particularly within the dynamic atmosphere of ROBINSON Cabo Verde, an Adult-only resort renowned for its vibrant daily Entertainment program, both during the day and evening. As everyone possesses a unique perception and sensitivity to quietude, we regretfully cannot furnish any guaranteed commitments regarding the quietness. Your feedback is valuable to us as it helps identify where we can do better. We hope that despite these inconveniences, you were still able to enjoy some pleasant moments during your stay, and we would be grateful for another opportunity to welcome you back. Your ROBINSON Cabo Verde Team

Verified reviewExtraordinary sports offer, very good food and spa, kind staff, comfortable rooms. I was most surprised by a very large and novative sports offer, from yoga to HIT, with very good trainers. Food offer was very good too, and daily sauna at the end of the day was the cherry on the cake. Evenings in February were too cold for us to attend evening events but they seemed very nice too. We appreciated a lot that hotel managed to extend our stay in despite of high demand. Even though majority of staff and guests are German, everyone speaks English and made us feel comfortable.
Wind was too strong some days (February) but one could always find a shelter from the wind.

Verified reviewThe hotel is very new and located in one of the best beach in Sal. The food is super delicious, varied and simple perfect. They have a lot of work out classes that are awsome, the quality is the same as a very good gym. The beach yoga is incredible! The rooms are new and are extremly confortable. And the staff is super nice, and communicative. I really liked that the staff ate at the buffet with the guests, it really shows they care about the employees.
For the price I was expecting a bit more commodities, but nothing that stands out. the only suggestion would be to have snacks in the beach bar, as there is only food at the restaurant and it’s a bit of a stretch from the beach

Verified reviewBig rooms, close to the beach
Extremely german oriented, from the food to the animation program. I get that the most guests are germans, but you feel absolutely left out when the first language you are spoken to (fitness classes, for example) is german. Also you could notice how the european stuaff from the hotel are on some kind of paid holiday, just enjoying themselves between his jobs. If you are german, they would socialize with you. If not... Also, and that is the reason of my bad experience and for what I give only one point as a penalty; I had two reservations because I wanted to stay longer as expected. They couldnt arrange for me to stay on the same room. They couldnt either arrange for me a late checkout (considering how late are usually the flights to Sal island, maybe they should rearrange the check in and check out times). And the worst part is; I had to ask for this info many times at the recepcion, until the last day I didnt had a definitive answer from them. One should expect that such a fancy resort would go above and beyond for the confort of their guests, but I guess that is only for the german ones. Which is sad.
Dear Jose, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We deeply regret to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the time you took to provide your insights. At ROBINSON Cabo Verde, we are proud to host guests from diverse backgrounds and strive to create an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere for everyone. While our guest demographic includes a significant number of German guests, our team is committed to ensuring that all guests feel equally valued and cared for, regardless of their nationality. Regarding your reservation, we understand how inconvenient it must have been to change rooms during your stay. Unfortunately, as your bookings were made separately and for different room categories, and due to the resort being fully booked at the time, we were unable to accommodate your request to stay in the same room. As for the late check-out, we can only confirm this service 24 hours prior to departure as it is subject to availability. On your departure day, the resort was at full occupancy, and regrettably, we could not provide this option. However, we do have facilities where guests can securely store their luggage and access changing and shower areas before departure. Your feedback regarding communication at the reception is invaluable to us, and we will use this to improve the clarity and timeliness of our responses to guest inquiries. We truly value your comments and will continue to work on providing exceptional service to all our guests. We hope you might consider giving us another opportunity to make your next stay truly memorable. Your ROBINSON Cabo Verde Team

VERY german oriented. To the point, one could feel a bit discriminated if that isnt the case. On a (maybe) unrelated note, I had a problem with my booking (i had actually two) and I couldnt stay in the same room, nor did they communicate me that (I had to ask) .Late checkin wasnt an option for me neither... So small things, that takes a few points from an otherwise incredible resort.

Verified reviewI recently stayed at Robinson Cape Verde, and it was truly one of the best vacation experiences I’ve ever had. The standout aspect was definitely the incredible staff—everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely seemed to enjoy making sure guests had an amazing time. They went above and beyond, creating a friendly, welcoming atmosphere that made me feel at home from the start. One of the things I loved was the variety of free activity classes available every day. Whether you’re into yoga, beach workouts, or water sports, there’s always something to try, and the instructors are fantastic. They keep it fun and engaging, so every day feels like an adventure if you want it to be! And let me rave about the food—easily the best I’ve had on the island. Not only is there a huge selection, but everything is also incredibly healthy and tasty. The chefs put a lot of thought into crafting meals that are as nutritious as they are delicious, and you can tell they use high-quality, fresh ingredients. From local Cape Verdean dishes to international options, every meal was a delight. All in all, Robinson Cape Verde combines the best of everything—an ideal location, excellent facilities, and staff that truly make the experience unforgettable. I can’t recommend it highly enough for anyone looking to recharge in a beautiful, welcoming setting.
