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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

IrelandThe selection of food wasn’t great in the onsite restaurants for evening time (breakfast was delicious) so we decided to eat out most nights.
The nature surrounds and location close to many your opportunities such as lava fields, caves, waterfalls, zip lining to name but a few.

United StatesWe stayed in one of the larger, but older garden rooms and our kids got the newer rooms with the jaw dropping views of La Fortuna (make sure you request the newer rooms with the view and plunge pool. The older room was still very nice and clean, but I did not like all of the lush rainforest surrounding our plunge pool and could not relax for fear of a snake plunging in with us… just me but the view of La Fortuna was so much better in the other room and the vegetation was less around the pool. Also, I would recommend non ceramic shampoo/conditioner/soap dispensers in the showers… they are so dangerous (because you have to pick them up or they slip) and they are easily broken causing a danger for feet. They are beautiful, but not safe or practical in the showers.
ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING! By far the best place we stayed in Costa Rica and wish we would have been able to stay more nights… we will be back! If there were a rating higher than 5 stars this place deserves every single one! The attention to detail and their guests needs is unparalleled. We’ve stayed in luxury hotels, resorts and safari lodges all over the world and this one takes the prize!! From the La Fortuna views to the variety and execution of the food to the wildlife and nature that sounds and makes each village seem exceptionally private and peaceful this place has exceeded any expectations we had of it being one of the best in the world! So much to do. Spa was AMAZING!! We saw our only sloths in CR at the resort… several of them and even a baby… not to mention the most wildlife of anywhere we stayed. One night was not enough, but it’s all we could get for our large group and we are SO glad we stayed! We will be back for longer!!

Everything. The most amazing place I’ve ever been. Excellent food, tons of animals on property (saw baby sloth from five feet away!), the staff would give us impromptu Spanish lessons… swim up bar in the springs had amazing bar tenders, special treats upon check in, turn down service, at the Italian place. I wanted to go back as soon as I left. 😂
