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.).

The only criticism is that their restaurant isn’t available for dinner, and it’s quite the walk to town. For us, it would’ve been less stressful than going out every night.
Loved the whole atmosphere of this place, quiet, quaint and not too far from the town of Boquete Staff was professional and always wanting to please us. Yoga, swimming and gyms available Massages & other treatments a delight.

A bit worn down. The gym has a fair amount of equipment but is very old, and doesn’t seem to be cleaned at all.
A nice (but a bit worn down) hotel. Nice breakfast. Very nice staff. Location is good - easy to walk to Boquete town.

The restaurant was closed on Thursday, which was our only full day there. It would have been nice to know ahead of time. Washcloths in the bathroom would also be nice.
A beautiful spa hotel. Courteous and friendly staff. Room was clean and pleasant. Staff were willing to arrange taxi’s and tours. Yoga and other classes available.

Taxis were readily available which was great! I like to walk however was a bit wary of few sidewalks to venture to town.
The hotel is immaculate, incredible grounds and the chef is wonderful. The hotel receptionists are there to meet your every need. The pool, yoga room and plenty of modern exercise equipment are available.

Nothing! It was amazing
The breakfast was absolutely exceptional! We were the only ones there most days. It was extremely quiet and peaceful and the food was amazing! The grounds were breathtaking also and the amenities were perfect. I loved the outdoor jacuzzi, we had it all to ourselves both times we used it and it was so relaxing. Finally the grounds outside were absolutely beautiful and I attended one of the classes and that was a great space for that also. The location was also excellent, we could walk into town pretty easily. The staff were all super nice and accommodated whatever we needed, they even partner with a local cab company to provide car service for a super reasonable price whenever needed. This was one of my favorite hotels I’ve ever stayed in due to its peaceful ambiance, great service and beautiful grounds. Would definitely stay here again!

Don't walk back after dark. It's on a very dark road, and when I walked, I didn't feel safe. Taxis are cheap. I had no problems walking to the hotel during the day.
Nice hotel, and I had a wonderful room. The menu was limited at the restaurant for breakfast and lunch, but it was definitely gourmet! I loved both the breakfast and lunch I had, and the creativity of the chefs.

the bed-mattress was a little hard, I prefer a softer mattress, but that's naturally personal test, for sure the bedding and linens were great

They only have a lap pool, not a regular one. So if you’re looking for this please know that’s the case.
The property itself was beautiful and immaculately kept. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They have great facilities including a modern gym, saunas, hot tubs and yoga classes.
