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.).

United States- There are very few activities--the entertainment staff seemed almost embarrassed to try to get an activity going. Absolutely nothing going on after dinner. - I was trapped inside the bathroom almost immediately upon checking in because the sliding door needed repair, which was on par for most of the facilities, which generally felt run down. They came to fix the door and get me out, but the door was never quite right. - My husband and I both arrived ill with a water-borne infection, so we called for a doctor early one morning. A member of the hotel staff on the medical team attended the doctor's visit, but was on her phone the entire time. At the end of the visit, we clarified with the doctor AND the attendant SEVERAL times that the hotel attendant would bring the prescriptions the doctor had written for us to the pharmacy for us. That was around noon. When we checked in at 4pm to see if the medicine had arrived, the front desk told us it would be another hour. At 5, when I checked in again, they said they had no idea what I was talking about and it turned out the attendant had NOT sent our prescriptions to the pharmacy. After a lot of back and forth, we finally received our prescriptions at 7PM. I understand there was a miscommunication, but you do expect a bit more care from the staff when you're ill. And the hotel staff didn't apologize for the confusion; instead, they blamed US for not understanding (even though the doctor told us the hotel would take care of the prescriptions and we were both dehydrated and barely able to get out of bed). It was an entire day of my vacation wasted waiting for medicine, and left a bad impression of the staff.
+ Reasonable value for the money--this isn't a high-end resort, but it also isn't that expensive + The resort wasn't very full when we were there, so the pool wasn't crowded, which was great. + The food was fine. Servers in the restaurants were pleasant and many remembered us from meal to meal.

United StatesNot enough staff at bars and poolside restaurant to support demand; limited and mediocre tasting poolside menu; no food options between 5:30 and 6:30 other than room service, which can take up to an hour and a half to be delivered; lack of communication between staff — for example, French restaurant closed for an evening (I guess to support a different buffet?) but front desk was unaware or unable to explain why restaurant was closed, or that there was a different dining option available in its place.
Location, cleanliness, room, breakfast in Market, pool, all-inclusive food and drinks; friendliness of staff, effort of staff to make the stay enjoyable. Acceptable: gym, food (better food outside resort).

CanadaThe smell from the swamp/sewer behind the apartments South of the main entrance was pretty rank. Had numerous run-ins with the room safe. It was unnecessarily complicated…much more so than any I’ve ever encountered in all my years of travel. The main suggestion for improvement would be for the hotel to create more shady areas to hide from the mid-afternoon scorching. There is almost nowhere to hide from 2pm to 4 pm.
Music was great, although it could be a bit loud from time to time Food was very good, plentiful and varied. Kudos to the Italian restaurant Staff were excellent. My wife had sprained her ankle a few days before our arrival, so the staff put us in a room close to most amenities….it was very, very much appreciated. The restaurant staff were excellent, with special mention for Kathleen Jesse and Manuel. Our room was quiet and spacious and kept clean The pools were warm and clean, with great towel services Grounds we’re beautifully kept

JamaicaThere was a lack of engagement where entertainment is considered, but it was enough for the kids to get involved. Just needs more entertainment and jamaican chefs if possible. plus the distance from the international airport is over an hour away though it says 25 minutes on the website.
I loved the ambiance and how clean the environment was. The staff was great and friendly. Though it's a spanish speaking country, most of the staff had basic English which made communication easier. They make you feel very welcomed and appreciated. I'd visit again 💯
