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.).

ColombiaThe pool is very small.
Roberto is a very kind host, who was very attentive to our shuttle (no extra cost) and also helped us find food when there was little option by the time we arrived at the island. Other reviews say it is difficult to arrive, but for me it was nice to walk there, the town is very secure and I loved to walk around it.

United StatesGreat location, have to climb to get there but worth it. More secluded but short walk from main beaches and restaurants
The pool is very cute, the room is comfortable and safe with good AC. The staff (Rob) is what made our stay so incredible. He went above and beyond to accommodate us from arrival time to departure. He sent us so much info and helpful tips about the island. It’s very rare to find such welcoming people

El SalvadorIf you want to stay on Taboga it is a good option. The pool is a small dunk pool which was a little misleading from the photos. The staff were very friendly.

United StatesOne thing I didn't like but it's not Cerrito's fault, is that the hike to Mountain Tops (Cruz and Vigia) were not well marked and easily found. The pool was a bit disappointing. One suggestion: Put a reminder sign at bathroom sink that the tap water should not be drank.
The best part is/was the check-out time! 11:00am gives plenty of time to relax and get organized, not rush. I liked how the room/accommodations met my basic needs and was very reasonably-priced. The location was good and it was nice and helpful that you can get a 'golf cart' ride to the hotel from Callaloo! I liked Callaloo too. It was nice that I could get Netflix in English.

United StatesThere was nothing I did not like.
This lodge is in a peaceful place on the island. The owners are wonderful and speak many languages. They are knowledgeable and eager to help. The price is also very fair. The rest of the staff was also very friendly. The room was very clean and comfortable and the air conditioner worked very well. There was plenty of hot water in the shower as well. I loved the hammocks outside.

SpainWe stayed at the ecolodge for one night and the hosts were very nice and helpful. They picked us up and also dropped us off at the ferry again, which was very helpful with heavy backpacks :) The view from the lodge is great and the terrace and pool area is very nice to chill after a day at the beach or a little hike!

United KingdomThis property was fantastic to stay at. The hosts Vicky and Cynthia went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and looked after. The service was 10/10 especially regard arrival and drop off from the ferry port (the hill is a biggie, but makes the views phenomenal). The Eco Lodge takes pride in recycling and looking after the environment. Activities such as hiking and Sea fishing were available in which I did both. Regarding hiking there are some fantastic whattsapp guides and the sea fishing was with a local man called Freddie, the trip was a success and two big Spanish mackerel were caught, it was a great day! Everything from the service to the best pina colada on the island (thank you Vicki) was top notch. I would highly recommend this as a place to stay for anyone looking to travel to Taboga island.

Breakfast was great! The ladies are super friendly and super helpful on a last minute check in. The room was very spacious and cute. Had all the conveniences of an apartment. The view was beautiful from the porch. And I love that they put a ramp in the back
