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.).

AustraliaAs above.
Looked very good at face value but then I was put in a poorly presented room, not even shown to the room… it’s over there. Things in the room didn’t work. And this was how I was greeted after an almost 40 hour trip, Sydney, San Fran, Miami, Kingston. The duty manager had no interest in my concerns, he remained sitting at the bar,

United StatesI did not like the room that was given as the view to the room walking in was facing a lot of debris. There is no desk or table in the room just a chair and fridge. the back door is not accessible to the pool area and the door is nailed shut with a gap where small animals can fit in. The TV does not work in the Wi-Fi is completely horrible. I could not even confirm my flight details from the room. I would give this room a two star because it was clean. The breakfast options were very little, and the food was served cold .
I like the location of the property as it is in close proximity to the airport.

United StatesI had to ask for hand soap to wash my hands in the bathroom to be delivered. The staff was very nice and did so. Please make sure basic amenities are provided, especially for the price per night. A few more towels should be stocked in the rooms as well.
The location was fantastic. The next time I will join a day trip and go snorkeling. The breakfast was good, that increases the value of the stay coming closer but not quite there for the price a night. Please provide some more gluten free options! I have celiac disease and no choice in the matter of my diet. Thanks!

United StatesOur room were never cleaned the entire 4 nights that we were there. We had no towels even after going to the front desk and placed a request. We had to remove our own trash. Beautiful place but poor staffing.
Not sure about the breakfast. She stated that they are understaffed, hence after waiting for over an hour on day one and day two we leave without placing a breakfast order. Day three they were out of eggs beacon and muffin They only have sussage and toast. No fruits as well.

JamaicaThe bathtub in the room was rusting, there was no phone in the room to communicate with front desk. We had to ask for the Wi-Fi password, the orientation of the room was a little awkward with the tv being so far away from the bed. We had to ask for blankets. If possible could there be a Jamaican price list, I find it to be quite unfair having to pay in USD when I’m a Jamaican citizen who works JMD.
Breakfast was good, it was a little cold but good. Love that we could sit right on the sea side.

United StatesWe had to get up at 3:00 am for a very early flight so tried to go to bed early. However, they had a band playing directly across from our room which kept up until 10:30 (house rules state no noise after 10:00 pm. We finally fell asleep only to hear two dogs incessantly barking outside of our room around 2:30 am.
The outdoor restaurant was very pleasant with a great view of the bay and Kingston on the distance.

United StatesThe other staff at the bar/waitress Shenele I think her name was needs a serious attitude adjustment on team work and work ethics all she did was complicate and make things worse from her lack of effort to do things. The construction/renovation went from 6am till 10 pm even on the weekends. There needs to be a cut off time! Like 9am till 5pm so people in there room could enjoy thier stay. No clocks in the room and only one mirror in the bathroom found that odd and needs to an addition once renovated.
The CHEF NEFF was great! He came out and checked on the guests and was sooo nice. JAY AND SHAUNA were great also. The tall young man at the bar makes a great drink! Cleaning staff Judith and the cleaning staff Trisha exceptional. CECIL has great customer service and the best person to meet and greet all guests! Micoh the manager made sure that all my requests were met from beginning to end!

JamaicaWe did not enjoy breakfast as I was expecting a variety and not the same thing twice. There was no pastry, porridge, sandwiches, etc. The room was not prepared for my honeymoon AT ALL, the floor was dirty, there were no chairs or table, to make everything worse, my veil removed from room105 and then was told it was placed in the garbage. Not even a call to let me know I left it. This issue has caused me to pay for the veil when returning my gown and accessories.......I AM SO HURT. Last but not least, the area of sea that has the coloured lights, is a lovely area for swimming but needs to be cleaned, add more sand and a stretch of mesh along the base of the bridge to prevent the big fishes from entering. With that, and some big beach umbrellas, patrons would have a choice between the pool and the sea.
We love the location and scenery. The staff is quite pleasant and professional. The environment is welcoming and comfortable. Love the floral arrangements. ****I really would love to return......with my experiences and expertise, I would love it if I could assist in making the property one that ALL would love to keep visiting for a day and more.

JamaicaI would suggest that they put something to hang towels on in the bathroom and to fix the ceiling in the bathroom that was leaking.
The hotel was not crowded or very busy, so that made the experience even nicer. It was quiet and it felt like we had the place to ourselves.

United KingdomBeing made to wear a wristband (as if you had just checked into an all-inclusive resort hotel) purely to prove that you’re a resident for breakfast purposes. Silly.
This hotel could be so much more. Good location. Large grounds. Decent sized rooms. All a bit shabby though. Staff friendly but could have been “friendlier”. Breakfast ok, very Jamaican (good) but then not particularly well executed.
