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 reviewThis property had great ratings and looked nice, but in person it exceeded my expectations. Although only a few years old, the lovely cottages feel like a throwback to an earlier era. The porch, the garden, the welcome drink...everything was so very peaceful. A short and easy walk to the beach and a bunch of restaurants. The hosts were charming. The small pool was the perfect place to float and watch the stars come out after sunset. Great breakfast. I was only there one night, but I loved that one night. Highly recommended.

Verified reviewWith Jaume and Montse at Popy hotel we felt like home, in a super-cozy environment where we could experience a very comfortable and quite stay. Ideal place in the nature with all comfort and helpful owners who have arranged for us activities and transports. The way the hotel is managed, furnished and the whole atmosphere is absolutely the best we could find in Las Terrenas.

Verified reviewNice basic and clean room with a big double bed and an extra bed in very small mezzanine. A relaxing atmosphere in the garden and pool area. Breakfast was delicious. Owners are lovely. A plus point for me was that I could pay by credit card without paying an extravagant fee as in most Dominican hotels...if you can pay by card at all!
The mezzanine was tiny with no room to maneuver whatsoever. I was the unlucky one to sleep there and I hit my head multiple times. It is also a very hot spot in the room. Although there was a coffee machine in the room, there were no extra water bottles, except in the minibar for which you had to pay. The room is basic. There is no TV and in general the room, and especially the bathroom/shower, misses the quality finish. I find the price quite steep for what you get. But, at the moment, everything touristic is overpriced in the Dominican Republic.

Verified reviewTastefully decorated spacious room. Unexpected outdoor shower ( on top of indoor one). Super friendly and attentive people, helping with everything you need. Tasty and healthy breakfast fresh juice, fruits plus choice of omelet/yoghurt or hot sandwich. We enjoyed our time in this cosy setting. Short walk to the beach, from there you can walk either along endless sand beaches or to town. Good choice of restaurants for different budgets. It is far enough from noisy restaurants and street to enjoy a quiet nights sleep with the sound of nature. We enjoyed our time in Punta Popy tremendously. Just 5 guest houses, a small pool and nice people made us wish to stay longer. We will definitely come back.
All perfect

Verified reviewI liked the design of the little cottages that were the rooms. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you anything more that I liked because the very first day at breakfast, the host reacted so badly to me suddenly experiencing physical distress that we were forced to look for another place to stay
The host or perhaps he’s the owner spoke to both me and my husband, in an incredibly belittling, insulting and dismissive manner, such that we didn’t want to be anywhere near him and felt extremely uncomfortable and we’re forced to find another place to stay. I was having breakfast I started to feel ill and lightheaded and I did not know why or what was happening. I went to go lie down, and when my husband attempted to bring me the rest of my breakfast, the host forbade him. I tried to come back to finish my breakfast, but I could not even remain sitting in the chair. The host response to my distress was the opposite of what any human being would wish for. After I staggered back to our room, he told my husband that he “couldn't be my father“ and insinuated, that I was having some kind of childish temper tantrum. I think he said some other things that my husband did not even want to repeat to me, but that made him so uncomfortable that we had to waste half the day of our short vacation trying to find alternative lodging, and we could not find anything for that same night and so we were forced to stay in this very small lodge, and try as best we could to avoid making eye contact or speaking with this man, but since he’s the one who cooks the breakfast in front of you, it was incredibly uncomfortable and unpleasant. we politely requested a refund for the second two nights only, though we should’ve been refunded for all four nights. Thus far, I have not seen any money come back to my account, and so we are also being forced to pay for two nights to stay at the place that was incredibly unpleasant and two nights that we were not even there.
