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 reviewBeautifully landscaped property. Very comfortable and large room. Across the road from a beach. Staff very helpful at arranging execursions if desired. You'll get a vucher for breakfast at a local restaurant. We liked Ohana better than Skully's.

Verified reviewIt's like a beautiful honeymoon suite. Very peaceful but you have Sully's bar and restaurant across the street for when you want to have fun or eat a good meal.
There is no one at the property to let you in. If you book same day, you need the message with your room number and lock box code to get inside Also it's the first property on the right. Hard to find without the email instructions.

Verified reviewThe room was beautiful, very nicely decorated, lots of space on the balcony to sit on chairs or relax in a hammock. You can spot many birds from the balcony, including hummingbirds. VERY comfortable bed with mosquito net, I was debating if I even need to explore the island or should I just stay in bed all day. Nice bathroom, shower pressure not the best, but that's a common issue on small islands. You get breakfast vouchers you can use in restaurants nearby for a free breakfast. Location is a 10min drive out of the town, but you can get a taxi or rent a scooter like we did - a rental place is conveniently right across the road and costs $45 per day for a scooter. Cassandra was very helpful with organizing a taxi for us in the early morning and was just a message away if we had any issues or questions.
Laundry costs $20 which I thought was a bit too much. The light around the mirror in the bathroom could be better.

Verified reviewWe loved our stay at Casa de Mono! We stayed for 3 nights in the open air apartment. The apartment has a jungle/rustic/bohemian feel. It is a beautiful and comfortable open air screened apartment, with all the necessary items supplied. And it’s eco-friendly! We loved being up in the trees. The property is gorgeous. The bedrooms, with the exception of the loft room, have air conditioning. Big ceiling fans are throughout the apartment. All the beds were super comfy. The location was great. Not too far from Bocas Town, but far enough away from the busier and noisier activities in town. There are several eating options that are in walking distance. We had our toddler with us and Cassandra was able to tell us about a few kid-friendly swimming spots on that side of the island. She also helped us with arranging a taxi from the airport as we had a little one and several suitcases in tow. We also ran into Wayne and he was really welcoming.
We loved everything about the property, but I didn’t realize how anxious I’d feel staying in an open air apartment with a young toddler who is at the age where he cries (loudly) about everything. Hopefully my very loud toddler didn’t disturb other guests. So that would be something to consider for families with younger kids. But not a fault of the property.

Verified reviewVery generous sized room with a lovely bathroom. Great mattress and lovely balcony. Able to borrow snorkeling gear. Breakfast vouchers for different restaurants. Really good coffee free of charge.
There was a large group of males being pretty noisy but nothing out of the ordinary.
