Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesBathroom was not very good. Shower space lacked handicap bar and glass side of shower space was limited and allowed water to go everywhere. Needed more towel bars.
Love the view from our porch. Everyone was super nice and helpful. Breakfast was outstanding even though it never changed. Same every day, but enjoyed it anyway.

United StatesIt is unfortunate that the booking mentioned the restaurant but neglected to mention that it would be closed on the dates we stayed there. Overall very nice convenient and quiet place to stay with modern rooms.
The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. We arrived early and they allowed us to get changed and stay by the pool till the room was ready. The room was spacious, air conditioned, with fridge, microwave other smaller appliances for coffee and tea. We were not aware of any noise as we were far enough from the parties in the village. The balcony had cool breezes and the bird serenades to enjoy. The cost was a little more than other hotels, but was worth it. Unfortunately, it was off season and the chef was away for a month. Breakfast was good. The free welcome cocktail and the arrangement with beach restaurants was a benefit.

ArubaThe bar only opened around 6pm. It would have been great to be able to have a drink at the pool also before that time. A lot of families with kids stay here. It was great for us, since we were with our family as well, but if you are a couple looking for a romantic getaway, it might be less suitable.
Great location. Clean and spacious rooms. The restaurant was absolutely great: very romantic setting, good food. Great that there is a deal voor beds and umbrellas with the restaurants on the beach. Friendly staff, good service.

United StatesI booked the room on booking and it said it was two twin beds and a sofa bed in the room. It was not. You must send a message to the hotel requesting two beds and they may or may not be able to grant that request. Not a problem for most couples, but i frequently travel with a friend or my adult children and sharing a bed is less than ideal!
Very friendly staff and a wonderful location. The beach club (coco) was wonderful and outstanding service as well

United StatesAssistance for my elderly family getting to and from the beach and restaurants around the village.
The breakfast was great, fresh fruit and delicious croissants. If you are elderly I feel this resort would be hard to get around. It was a far walk for some members in our family getting up and down hills, then walking to the beach daily.

South KoreaThe website is misleading as La Plantation does not have a beachfront area - it partners with beachfront facilities. A lack of communication, i.e. Breakfast includes fruit salad - which we only found out about at day #4.
The suite is very spacious and the terrasse really great to watch the sunrise. The seaview is beautiful. Breakfast by the pool for a relaxing start of the day.

CanadaFor me personally, everything about this property met or exceeded expectation. If I had to pick one area of improvement, maybe I would say the breakfast, but that is a reach as it was already pretty good, and it was included.
The whole hotel compound was in an incredible location, close to the beach, but secluded. We stayed in a 1 bedroom villa on the street above the reception, and the views of the water were spectacular from the deck. A simple walk down for breakfast and to use the beautiful pool area. Being affiliated with the 5 beach clubs is an excellent addition to this already amazing property.

United StatesThe pool is small, and surrounded by tables so not a relaxing atmosphere if you want to use a pool. We went to the beach everyday, so it didn't matter to us but I was glad we weren't depending on it..
We had a wonderful room, the King Sea View suite. It was large and had adequate space for our 10-day stay. The view from the balcony was stunning. Everyone was very helpful, and the room very clean. One morning we woke up to water by the TV that seeped in from the adjacent room ... they were right on it, cleaning and attending to the leak next store.

United StatesSurprisingly breakfast was just ok. Limited selection, they were out of basic things like jam and milk for coffee and staff was not particularly helpful. You can choose from five locations for beach chairs and umbrellas, but you are not allowed to have a chair in the front row. For some you have to make reservations for a chair in advances
Lovely pool area and restaurant in the evening was amazing with excellent staff.

FranceOver 48hrs of complete black out, not the hotel fault but the team could have reacted better... And try to compensate one way or another the guests who stayed 3 nights without electricity, lights, A/C, TV, Internet, in complete darkness except for one little candle given by reception... On the 3rd night no more hot water, we were ready to give up when the electricity came back around 21.30! As an example on check out i asked for one hour extension to leave the room, which was refused not very nice considering what we experienced... The hotel team could have organised a little cocktail to say thank you for your patience & understanding... In short, the hotel could have done much better to deal with this unfortunate situation... Regarding the junior suite where we stayed, the lounge area coud be organised better so you can watch the TV, or replace the small screen by a much bigger one so you can see properly from bed...
Location was excellent, possibility to park the renta car next to the room, new bathroom, excellent bedding, beautiful view from terrace, convenient little kitchen corner, very good WIFI and internet speed, possibility to get fresh beach towels daily, possibility to use sun beds for free in 5 different beaches

Been to this property several times. It is very well managed. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. We like the private setting and outdoor space with view. Beach towels and complimentary chairs on beach were a plus.
