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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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 States of AmericaThe place was fine. However, we were awakened in the middle of the night with a very loud howl. Extremely loud! We had no idea what it was. Couldn't go back to sleep because of it. It was later the next morning that we researched and found it was howler monkeys. I think this would be good to mention when people are booking.
How easy it was to get a hold of the property manager. Nice guy, very considerate with our needs. Very close to the beach , food and entertainment. Nice repurposed container unit.

United States of America...can't think of anything we didn't like. Is a perfect place for self-sufficient people who anticipate their needs BEFORE arriving, and bring a good supply of items they can't live without. Thanks, Lior - and Christopher, who helped us navigate to the villa in the dark.
A superb experience. The facilities, fixtures, furniture, linens, towels, air conditioning, private pool, and expert management were all exceptional. The extreme privacy of the villa and its secure deep jungle location are wonderful, while also being within a five to ten minute easy drive to ANY of the three finest beaches on the Caribbean side of Costa Rica: Playas Cocles, Chiquita, or Uva. Also, having an ice-cold full-sized refrigerator/freezer was an unexpected bonus.

United KingdomAs a family with two small children we hadn’t realised the two bedrooms were completely separate which was a bit of an issue as we were unable to leave the children in one bedroom with us in the other. We got around it but worth noting. The floor around the swimming pool got extremely slippery after use.
This was a magical place to stay with a gorgeous deck where you could sit and watch wildlife in the back garden. Great location in quiet surroundings with lots of wildlife but close enough to town for the amenities. The deck was a lovely space to spend time with the pool and bar/kitchen area. We would really recommend this place. We loved staying. Would recommend a 4x4. A little bit of paradise.

United States of AmericaEverything else is open air (besides the bedrooms) so it's hot and a lot of bug spray is needed even when you are cooking. The pool was the best place to be!
Private pool, surrounded by jungle, 2 rooms with A/C

SpainThere is no WiFi - but that’s honestly not the most important thing you need in middle of the pure Caribbean jungle
The Villa is beautiful and we had everything that we needed! We recommend the stay 100%

Costa RicaI don't think i have any complains about this place everything was great. I think the only thing was if the parking lot was full you had to park on the street but regardless its not like its a busy street. Other then that everything else is great!
Everything was great! The place was beautiful and it was a perfect getaway for my boyfriend and I. We really liked how nature is incorporated into the home. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed, which was great because we enjoy home cooked meals. Everything was so clean and the host was super friendly and quick to respond. We will for sure be coming back again!

United States of AmericaThe location on Waze is incorrect. Be prepared to communicate with the property manager, whose style is a bit rude. When the electricity went out in the units, I called and told him. I wanted to cool off because I had been at the beach and was sticky so I took a shower, not realizing that the water pump is electric and not separate from the electricity. I was standing on the deck of the villa with soap all over my body and no way to rinse. When I called to tell the property manager, he asked me why I would take a shower when the electricity was off and when I explained why, he derided my decision and basically blamed me for not understanding the infrastructure of Limón. He then suggested I go rinse off in a river nearby- mind you it was after dark, there are no lights, and I was a woman ALONE. I was speechless at his suggestion. Later, he did try to be helpful, but his tone is brusque and accusatory. Another example is when I called to tell him I was lost, his response was “I sent you the directions.” Not, “Sorry to hear that. Let me send you a link.” IMPORTANT: Make sure to bring cash to pay. It’s in the fine print and if you aren’t paying attention you will have to deal with an irritated property manager screenshotting and sending you the email confirmation where it says they only take cash or SINPE. I loved the place, but because of this man I ended up switching to another place for my 3rd night. Conclusion: If the power goes out, don’t shower during the outage, bring lots of bug spray, bring dollars to pay for the trip, and verify the specifics of the address BEFORE you get on the road.
Great value. Solid rooms. Lovely location.
